Aaron ben Joseph of Nicomedia → Aaron ben Elijah
The result of the discussion was delete. Wizardman 21:04, 29 March 2009 (UTC)

Unneeded redirect as Aaron ben Elijah was never known by that name. Tavix (talk) 22:32, 22 March 2009 (UTC) 'The above is preserved as the archive of a RfD nomination. Please do not modify it.'

List of massacres committed by Jews during the 1948 Arab–Israeli war → Killings and massacres during the 1948 Palestine War
The result of the discussion was delete. Wizardman 21:03, 29 March 2009 (UTC) 

Delete - this was a POVFORK article created back in the day which was almost immediately merged into the original article. All that remains is this borderline-racist redirect, which serves no purpose as no one would think to search for this phrase, and I believe it's bad enough that it appears in the AJAX search suggestions. Ynhockey (Talk) 21:38, 22 March 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete - almost could serve as a vandalism redirect, speedily deletable. Magog the Ogre (talk) 07:00, 23 March 2009 (UTC)

 * Delete - Serves no purpose. The current article lists so-called massacres by both Arab and Zionist forces, as it should. Keeping this could lead to ridiculous tic-for-tac pages. Remove immediately.Sposer (talk) 13:17, 23 March 2009 (UTC)

Brede, Lyngby-Taarbæk Kommune → Brede, Denmark
The result of the discussion was delete. Wizardman 21:02, 29 March 2009 (UTC) 

I've moved the page to Brede, Denmark. Highly unlikely that anyone on English Wikipedia would use this very specific link target referring to Lyngby-Taarbæk municipality, and in Danish, at that. - Lilac Soul (talk • contribs • count) 16:52, 22 March 2009 (UTC) 'The above is preserved as the archive of a RfD nomination.

Igor Piskarev → Aeroflot Flight 593
The result of the discussion was delete. Wizardman 21:02, 29 March 2009 (UTC)

A non-notable airline accident victim. The target page doesn't mention him and there is no pages that link to him either. Tavix (talk) 14:51, 22 March 2009 (UTC)

Cámboya → Santiago de los Caballeros
The result of the discussion was delete. Wizardman 21:01, 29 March 2009 (UTC) 

A user keeps deleting the redirect and trying to speedy it with the reason: No reference that this municipality exists in the Santiago Province, this is a blank page with no information. I figured instead of keep on reverting, I'd bring it here for a wider consensus. Q T C 05:38, 22 March 2009 (UTC)
 * Weak keep A sector with a similar name appears to exist in Santiago de los Cabelleros per this Google News Archive search. Weak keep because the sector's actual name is Camboya (without the "a acute"). Cunard (talk) 06:01, 22 March 2009 (UTC)
 * Changed to delete per 's comments below. This search term is very unlikely, since it is a misspelled version of Camboya. Cunard (talk) 22:03, 23 March 2009 (UTC)


 * DELETE -I disagree Municipalities of the Dominican Republic are divided into sectors or parajes.  Camboya is one of those sectors or parajes in the Santiago de los Caballeros Province.  The Cámboya page was created with no information, just a link to the Santiago de los Caballeros Province and it appears in the listing of Municipal District, and that is wrong.

Santiago de los Caballeros Province consists of the following Municipalities

It has two Municipal Districts Sabana Iglesia and Villa González
 * Municipios de Santiago de los Caballeros (capital of the Province),
 * Janico
 * Villa Bisono
 * Tamboril
 * San José de las Matas
 * Pedro García
 * Liceo

The Province is divided into 40 sections and 337 parajes. Camboya is one of those sections or parajes. My questions are, should this page be kept with no information or description and also be placed in the wrong category. Are the 40 sections and 337 parajes going to be listed as well. I got the information from Archivo Historico de Santiago.

 * Reply: The redirect shouldn't be to a wrong target. If you can create an article about a sector at Camboya, then please do so. Cunard (talk) 22:03, 23 March 2009 (UTC)

My opinion is to delete this page; if anybody wants to write in the future a page about Camboya the neigborhood (and not a municipality) of Santiago de los Caballeros, it is very easy to create that page. has the practice of redirecting and redirecting for not aparent reason; and he/she creates hoax pages and nobody knows the reasons. I have the same opinion about the page Pedro García, Santiago; it is confusing when you look for information about a place and you are redirect to another city article. In the future, that page could be written with true information. And there are more municipalities and municipal districts in the province (by law, its name is Santiago and not Santiago de los Caballeros) than those presented by ; I will try to correct the list in the page following the information of the National Office of Statistics. --Jmarcano (talk) 01:08, 25 March 2009 (UTC) 'The above is preserved as the archive of a RfD nomination.

 * I have a question. What is this discussion good for, if no action is taken unless the proposer follows up. who is responsible to close or keep the the page?  thaks --Juliaaltagracia (talk) 17:21, 29 March 2009 (UTC)

President Government → Barack Obama
The result of the discussion was delete  Wizardman  20:58, 29 March 2009 (UTC)

Deletion because the redirect page makes absolutely no sense. Sure Barack Obama is the President of our government, but President Government? That makes no sense. TharsHammar (talk) 03:26, 22 March 2009 (UTC)


 *  Retarget to Head of state , which is a more plausible target. The redirect's current target is US-centric; targeting to head of state will represent a more global view of the meaning of the phrase. Even though this search term is unlikely, there's no harm in retargeting "President Government" which basically means "head of state". Cunard (talk) 05:46, 22 March 2009 (UTC)
 * Retarget to Presidential system as a better target. Cunard (talk) 22:20, 28 March 2009 (UTC)

 * Delete - a nonsensical term under any circumstance. Magog the Ogre (talk) 07:00, 23 March 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete - per Magog.  Jd 027  (talk) 01:50, 24 March 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete as non-useful redirect, potentially malicious. SchuminWeb (Talk) 04:45, 24 March 2009 (UTC)

Alpha Centari (game)) → Sid Meier's Alpha Centauri
The result of the discussion was delete  Wizardman  20:59, 29 March 2009 (UTC) 

Declined speedy (too old). Speedy nomination edit summary was, "a typo with TWO close parens is extremely unlikely" SchuminWeb (Talk) 02:12, 22 March 2009 (UTC) 'The above is preserved as the archive of a RfD nomination. Please do not modify it.'
 * Delete per nom. A search with even one close paren would be unlikely. Two would be improbable. No merge has taken place, so this redirect is useless. Cunard (talk) 05:50, 22 March 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete two closed parenthesis is more than unlikely, its next to impossible. Tavix (talk) 22:35, 22 March 2009 (UTC)

Wikipedia:Scary transclusion → Wikipedia:Transclusion
The result of the discussion was Withdrawn by nominator (non-admin closure). Unscented (talk) 15:12, 22 March 2009 (UTC) Implausible misnomer. (Note: WP:CSD R3 does not apply here, as the redirect was not created recently. Unscented (talk) 00:47, 22 March 2009 (UTC)

'The above is preserved as the archive of a RfD nomination. Please do not modify it.'
 * Keep. "Scary transclusion" refers to mw:Manual:$wgEnableScaryTranscluding. It's disabled in Wikipedia but users may seek information about it and the redirect doesn't harm. Transclusion says "To transclude any source page (within a single MediaWiki project, such as en:Wikipedia) ...". This hints that scary transclusion is disabled although it could be said more clearly. PrimeHunter (talk) 03:14, 22 March 2009 (UTC)
 * Keep per PrimeHunter's excellent rationale. Cunard (talk) 05:47, 22 March 2009 (UTC)
