Chris Floyd - Empire Burlesque



 * The following is an archived discussion concerning one or more redirects. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on an appropriate discussion page (such as the redirect's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this section.


 * The result of the discussion was speedy deleted WP:CSD. This redirect only arose because an article on Chris Floyd was created at this title and then moved to Chris Floyd to replace one which had been deleted at AfD on 18 May. I have deleted the new one per WP:CSD as a repost of deleted material, and advised the author that he needs to clear any rewrite with the closing admin, or failing that through DRV. If the article is recreated, it can be debated whether this redirect should be recreated; on the face of it, it does not seem a useful one. JohnCD (talk) 21:49, 1 June 2010 (UTC)

No likelihood this redirect title will be of any use whatsoever Tagishsimon (talk) 20:21, 30 May 2010 (UTC) 'The above is preserved as the archive of an RfD nomination. Please do not modify it.'
 * Keep - substantial history so deletion would be contrary to GFDL requirements. Bridgeplayer (talk) 21:55, 30 May 2010 (UTC)
 * Definitely Keep - substantial history and Chris is a seminal figure within international journalism, so I second the above, deletion would be contrary to GFDL requirements. Krisno (talk) 09:00, 31 May 2010 (UTC)
 * Definitely Keep - Agreed - Floyd is a voice in the wilderness that we need to know about. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Uccjxe (talk • contribs) 23:29, 31 May 2010 (UTC)

 * Comment - this has only just been created by an active editor. I have alerted him on his talk page. For such recent redirects a dialogue with the author should be the first step, rather than coming straight here - he might, for example, be about to add content to the target. Bridgeplayer (talk) 15:07, 30 May 2010 (UTC)
 * The problem is that there is NO info on the topiv and the redirect breaks WP:CRYSTAL — Preceding unsigned comment added by Yellow Evan (talk • contribs) 15:14, 30 May 2010
 * This redirect is harmless so we could live with it for a couple of days whilst you ask the author what his intentions are. If he adds content then problem solved; if he says he is not shortly going to expand the target, or doesn't reply, then we can delete it. Bridgeplayer (talk) 15:33, 30 May 2010 (UTC)
 * There is info on the topic: the target article says that name lists are recycled, so in most cases we can already tell what the 2018 names will be. Sideways713 (talk) 10:30, 31 May 2010 (UTC)

 * Comment - I dont see how this redirect breaches WP:Crystal since the policy is only for Articles and not articles. As for the authors intentions i think Anaharmik was wanting to see this template have all the relevant links on it without having to edit each year to add new seasons in each year.Jason Rees (talk) 01:40, 31 May 2010 (UTC)
 * Weak Delete We've redirected future Atlantic hurricane seasons to the list of North Atlantic names, but it's not at all clear which of the 3 North Pacific lists of names is appropriate. — Arthur Rubin  (talk) 18:33, 2 June 2010 (UTC)
 * It would be the names for the EPAC E of 140W.Jason Rees (talk) 21:23, 2 June 2010 (UTC)
 * Please adjust the redirect(s), then. — Arthur Rubin  (talk) 01:45, 3 June 2010 (UTC)

WP:CRYSTAL violation. Leave Message, Yellow Evan home 13:49, 30 May 2010 (UTC)

What if a name during 2014 gets retired? Besides, the WPAC has a continuing list, EPAC does not. Leave Message, Yellow Evan home 'The above is preserved as the archive of an RfD nomination. Please do not modify it.'
 * Delete There is no use in linking 2020 to a list that only covers names up to 2015. When the list of names for 2020 has been published we can install a redirect. De728631 (talk) 13:54, 30 May 2010 (UTC)
 * Comment In most cases, it says clearly that the name lists are recycled in a simple pattern. This allows us to tell what the names for 2020 will be (for example, for North Pacific east of 140°W the 2020 names will start Amanda, Boris, Cristina...) I don't necessarily agree with this redirect but as far as I can see, it doesn't break WP:CRYSTAL any more than say 2014 Pacific typhoon season. Sideways713 (talk) 10:29, 31 May 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete It's way off in the future and has little use to anyone. Cyclonebiskit (talk) 16:40, 6 June 2010 (UTC)

Safety equipment



 * The following is an archived discussion concerning one or more redirects. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on an appropriate discussion page (such as the redirect's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this section.


 * The result of the discussion was Deleted as a red link will encourage article creation and whereas the redirect discourages article creation. Also, this was indeed a cross-namespace redirect and WP:RFD#DELETE's discussion of category redirects is specifically talking about the CAT: psedo-namespace redirects. -- JLaTondre (talk) 01:31, 7 June 2010 (UTC)


 * → Category:Safety equipment (links to redirect • [ history] • )

Althought a redirect towards category namespace does not qualify for CSD R2, WP:R says the major exception is shortcut redirect which forms "pseudo-namespace". This cross-namespace redirect is not a "CAT:" shortcut. It should be deleted and leave it appear as red link to encourage other people contribute to this subject. Quest for Truth (talk) 03:17, 30 May 2010 (UTC)
 * Keep - pending the writing of an article, this redirect is helpful to someone seeking information on the topic. It also gets a lot of traffic. Better to keep it and list it at WP:RA (which I have done). Bridgeplayer (talk) 15:41, 30 May 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete. Cross-namespace redirect; not a speedy under R2, but not helpful.  — Arthur Rubin  (talk) 16:39, 2 June 2010 (UTC)
 * Comment - this is not technically a cross-namespace - see WP:RFD, and redirects to categories are permissible. I am not sure why you say it is not helpful - the category is directly relevant to someone seeking information on safety equipment. Bridgeplayer (talk) 15:56, 6 June 2010 (UTC)

The person who's always standing and walking



 * The following is an archived discussion concerning one or more redirects. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on an appropriate discussion page (such as the redirect's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this section.


 * The result of the discussion was Re-targeted to Two Dozen and One Greyhounds. The quote is from the Simpson's show so it makes more sense to direct to the show it comes from. That provides more context and the real person's article. -- JLaTondre (talk) 01:34, 7 June 2010 (UTC)


 * → Rory Calhoun (links to redirect • [ history] • )

Doesn't mention that Rory Calhoun is the person who's always standing and walking, possible nonsense. Décembër21st2012Freâk  Talk at 01:55, 30 May 2010 (UTC)
 * Keep - this is a quote associated with the target - see here. Only a scattering of hits but it is a foreseeable search term and I see no good reason for deletion. Bridgeplayer (talk) 15:18, 30 May 2010 (UTC)
 * Comment I think it would make more sense to retarget to the episode in question where the reference was made Two Dozen and One Greyhounds. That page mentions the connection to the actor while the actors page does not mention this.--76.66.187.192 (talk) 22:31, 30 May 2010 (UTC)
