Mandias



 * 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 rendered moot by having been converted to a disambiguation page. SchuminWeb (Talk) 01:53, 28 September 2010 (UTC)


 * → Mantle (links to redirect • [ history] • )

Delete. I can see no reason for this redirect to exist. I can't find any source for the proposition that "mandais" refers to any of the meanings of "mantle" offered on the target disambig page. bd2412 T 19:00, 17 September 2010 (UTC)
 * Comment - I have notified the creator, who is still active, and who may be able to shed light on why this redirect was made. Bridgeplayer (talk) 21:53, 17 September 2010 (UTC)
 * Retarget to Padishah Emperor unless a better solution manifests itself. Bridgeplayer (talk) 21:57, 17 September 2010 (UTC)
 * Mandias is the specific name for this vestment. An Eastern Orthodox individual who wants to find an article on this subject would most likely type in "mandyas" (the Russian form of the word) or "mantia" (the Greek form). "Mantle" is a very general term which can refer to a number of things. If anything needs to be done to this redirect, I would suggest that "mandias" link directly to Mantle (vesture). MishaPan (talk) 05:51, 18 September 2010 (UTC)
 * Disambiguate in view of this discussion. Bridgeplayer (talk) 23:19, 18 September 2010 (UTC)
 * That is a reasonable solution. bd2412  T 03:32, 19 September 2010 (UTC)

Monosociality

 * The result of the discussion was article reinstated. Reinstated article together with Prod carrying original rationale. Prod should run its course and article fate decided through normal article deletion procedures. NAC. Bridgeplayer (talk) 21:48, 17 September 2010 (UTC)


 * → Homosociality (links to redirect • [ history] • )

replaced the article with a redirect under the premise that it's a synonym, which is false according to both the article that was there and the bisociality article. But there were issues with the article. So what should we do with it (and Monosocial) - delete, reinstate and improve the article we had or something else? Smjg (talk) 17:57, 17 September 2010 (UTC)
 * Keep redirect
 * From monosociality:
 * "Monosociality (adj monosocial) in sociology describes social relations (or preference for such relations) with only one sex, of a (putatively) nonsexual nature"
 * From homosociality:
 * "In sociology, homosociality describes same-sex relationships that are not of a romantic or sexual nature"
 * sounds like a synonym to me Yoenit (talk) 18:35, 17 September 2010 (UTC)
 * Subtle but apparently not a synonym. Mono - one sex. Homo - same sex. Hetro - opposite sex. --Kvng (talk) 18:48, 17 September 2010 (UTC)
 * Ah yes, I complete missed that. Yoenit (talk) 20:50, 17 September 2010 (UTC)
 * You should reinstate the article and let Prod or AfD run its course. --Kvng (talk) 18:48, 17 September 2010 (UTC)
