Viatology
The result of the discussion was Delete. עוד מישהו Od Mishehu 13:53, 22 February 2010 (UTC)
 * → Roadgeek (links to redirect • [ history] • )

This term appears to be a neologism that does not appear to be as widely used as "roadgeek" and other variants that are actually mentioned at the target article. While there are a large number of results, most appear to be astroturfing the web and Usenet groups by one individual in an attempt to promote his site. No evidence of usefulness. Recommend deletion. -- Kinu t /c  22:58, 14 February 2010 (UTC) 'The above is preserved as the archive of an RfD nomination. Please do not modify it.'
 * Delete as a neologism that appears to have been coined in 2007. I have yet to see its use or definition in a reliable source. 147.70.242.54 (talk) 17:18, 17 February 2010 (UTC)

Cross-namespace redir; Not linked to or through; does not seem useful in article space. DES (talk) 07:29, 14 February 2010 (UTC) DES (talk) 07:29, 14 February 2010 (UTC) 'The above is preserved as the archive of an RfD nomination. Please do not modify it.'

 * → Operation Entebbe (links to redirect • [ history] • )

Doesn't seem like a plausible search term. Prezbo (talk) 04:52, 14 February 2010 (UTC) 'The above is preserved as the archive of an RfD nomination. Please do not modify it.'
 * Delete Too unlikely to by useful. Also, the wording is misleading as the article states that "Idi Amin ... supported the hijackers in their efforts." The redirect makes it sounds like Amin aided and abetted the hostages. TheTito   Discuss  09:56, 14 February 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete as confusing as Amin did the exact opposite of was "indicated" by the name of the redirect: Amin gave the hijackers safe haven and military support; one of the hostages was murdered by the Ugandan military in a Ugandan hospital. 147.70.242.54 (talk) 16:10, 16 February 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete. Neither a plausible search term or accurate. –Grondemar 07:55, 20 February 2010 (UTC)

Unlikely that someone would type the name in all lowercase and in "quotes". Ten Pound Hammer, his otters and a clue-bat • (Many otters • One bat • One hammer) 00:38, 14 February 2010 (UTC) 'The above is preserved as the archive of an RfD nomination. Please do not modify it.'
 * Delete agreed. JohnCD (talk) 10:01, 14 February 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete per previous RfD consensus on redirects in quotes, where the item in quotes is not a quotation. –Grondemar 07:53, 20 February 2010 (UTC)
