Exeter shitty

 * The result of the discussion was speedy-deleted as vandalism.  User contribution history confirms the pattern.  Similar vandalism deleted at the same time.  Rossami (talk) 15:00, 27 March 2011 (UTC)


 * → Exeter City F.C. (links to redirect • [ history] • )

Obviously added as a joke. Redirect is of no use whatsoever. For what it's worth, google comes up with barely anything so it's not even a common derogatory nickname Jevansen (talk) 14:27, 27 March 2011 (UTC) 'The above is preserved as the archive of an RfD nomination. Please do not modify it.'

 * The result of the discussion was keep. Thryduulf (talk) 10:18, 5 April 2011 (UTC)


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

This redirect seems to be of the form "to have X is to be Y"—"to have glossophobia is to be afraid to speak in public"—which seems an unlikely search pattern, perhaps more suited to a dictionary; a similar redirect would be Able to inspire devotion in others → Charisma. In the past 12 months, the redirect has received, on average, 12 hits per month (0.4 hits per day). It has no essential incoming links or history and, given the other redirects to the target (e.g. Fear of public speaking), is unneeded. -- Black Falcon (talk) 07:06, 27 March 2011 (UTC) 'The above is preserved as the archive of an RfD nomination. Please do not modify it.'
 * Keep. "Unneeded" is a value-judgement based on how one navigates the wiki.  Redirects help those who navigate in other ways.  Unless there is evidence of harm, confusion or bad faith, policy tells us to assume good faith.  The redirect is technically correct and, unlike Charisma, is about a technical term that is not used in daily conversation.  Redirects for synonyms are a widely accepted use.  Rossami (talk) 15:06, 27 March 2011 (UTC)
 * Keep - harmless, plausible search term. Bridgeplayer (talk) 01:54, 28 March 2011 (UTC)

 * The result of the discussion was retarget to Wheel of Fortune. Thryduulf (talk) 10:20, 5 April 2011 (UTC)


 * → Wheel of Fortune (U.S. game show) (links to redirect • [ history] • )

 * Keep reasonablemispelling 65.93.12.101 (talk) 01:52, 27 March 2011 (UTC)
 * Doubt it... particularly since there're plenty of other things called Wheel of Fortune. Ten Pound Hammer, his otters and a clue-bat • (Otters want attention) 03:16, 27 March 2011 (UTC)
 * retargetting to Wheel of Fortune does not involve deletion. 65.93.12.101 (talk) 04:57, 27 March 2011 (UTC)
 * Retarget to Wheel of Fortune. I don't agree that it is a "reasonable" typo but, surprisingly, it appears to be used (c. 70 hits in February). Was there an incoming link that was recently removed? If so, I would support deletion. -- Black Falcon (talk) 07:12, 27 March 2011 (UTC)
 * Keep. It is not obviously confusing or harmful, counts as a plausible typo and, as Black Falcon notes, still gets a steady stream of hits.  Agree, however, that it should probably be retargetted to the disambiguation page.  Rossami (talk) 15:18, 27 March 2011 (UTC)
 * Retarget to Wheel of Fortune. Harmless but wrong to target at one, specific show. Bridgeplayer (talk) 01:56, 28 March 2011 (UTC)
 * I note that this particular spelling came from real search data: when the AOL search data was leaked, a bunch of people including myself went though the top 1000 searches or so and created redirects to appropriate articles for them, figuring they were likely to be wanted pages here too. Wheel Of Fortune may be less popular than it was back in the day, though... (I am mostly indifferent to its fate, though I rarely understand the point of deleting redirects that aren't ambiguous or misleading.) Kat Walsh (spill your mind?) 05:28, 5 April 2011 (UTC)

Biggest wins and losses on Wheel of Fortune



 * 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 Keep. Whether to tag with  or not is a decision that can be made by the normal editorial process. Thryduulf (talk) 10:24, 5 April 2011 (UTC)


 * → Wheel of Fortune (U.S. game show) (links to redirect • [ history] • )

Unlikely search term. The only "big win" mentioned on the show is the sole $1,000,000 win, and no "big losses" could reliably be sourced.

 * Comment - On 18 July 2006, an article was created at this title using content copied from another article (currently, the page history is here). On 12 September 2006, following Articles for deletion/Biggest wins and losses on Wheel of Fortune, a portion of the new article was merged back to its original source (diff). Eventually, and I've no idea when exactly, the content was removed altogether. -- Black Falcon (talk) 07:25, 27 March 2011 (UTC)
 * Keep. As Black Falcon notes, this page has had a complicated history, with some content moved, removed, merged, etc.  While the content is not in the current version of the target article, it may someday be restored.  Leaving the redirect is the easiest way to ensure compliance with GFDL.  The current target is not obviously harmful or confusing.  It should perhaps be tagged with unprintworthy in recognition of the history but does not need deletion.  Rossami (talk) 15:16, 27 March 2011 (UTC)
