Template:Cats needed

 * → Template:Uncategorized (links to redirect)

We have tenths of redirects to Uncategorised. We don't need this one. This may also confuse new users. too much Wikipedism with this "cats" for "categories" Magioladitis (talk) 23:58, 13 November 2009 (UTC)

 * Keep as plausible redirect. I am unsure I grasp why it would be confusing to new users, it seems to do what it says on the tin, it tags an article as requiring catagories... Seems harmless enough. --Taelus (talk) 13:48, 18 November 2009 (UTC)
 * Weak keep From the edit history results that the original redirect is around since 2006 so it is quite possibly useful to somebody. The title invites lolcat jokes that have been userfied to User:Mazca/Cats needed, but it is unlikely to confuse users.--Tikiwont (talk) 08:55, 22 November 2009 (UTC)
 * Keep as potentially useful alternative to the singular Cat needed. 147.70.242.54 (talk) 21:37, 23 November 2009 (UTC)

Cafe Fear
The result of the discussion was Delete. Implausible typo that occurred during disambiguation.Tikiwont (talk) 08:38, 22 November 2009 (UTC)
 * → Cape Fear (links to redirect)

Delete per implausible typo. Would probably qualify for speedy deletion, but wasn't recently created. WildCowboy (talk) 22:21, 13 November 2009 (UTC)

 * Delete per above. The name "Cafe Fear" is just at typo thats not widespread. I do not know why this page was created. --Triadian (talk) 03:51, 14 November 2009 (UTC)

HP Data Protector
The result of the discussion was Delete. Tikiwont (talk) 08:40, 22 November 2009 (UTC)
 * → Hewlett-Packard (links to redirect)

Delete per Rfd and WP:RDSPAM: This redirect makes no sense as it send peoples who seek information about a software product with this name to an irrelevant article which has no information about the given software and causes confusion and annoyances. I suspect this redirect is also a promotional redirect (one of the undesirable types of redirects) as seeks to promote a subject without providing notability evidences. Fleet Command (talk) 19:25, 13 November 2009 (UTC)

'The above is preserved as the archive of an RfD nomination. Please do not modify it.'
 * Delete as misleading redirect. Whilst I don't think it quite breaks WP:RDSPAM, it is still a harmful redirect as the target article contains no relevant information to the product. --Taelus (talk) 13:51, 18 November 2009 (UTC)

Keming
The result of the discussion was Delete. Ruslik_ Zero 15:38, 22 November 2009 (UTC)
 * → Kerning (links to redirect)

'Keming' is a joke word invented by David Friedman, see here. When the redirect was created the target article referred to the joke, but it's since been removed due to lack of coverage in any reliable source so the redirect doesn't serve much purpose any more.

 * Delete per nom.--Tikiwont (talk) 08:42, 22 November 2009 (UTC)
