The only relation here is the word "hatchet." Anyone looking for "hatchet job" will be wholly uninterested in our general article about the tool. 68.35.40.154 (talk) 05:24, 25 May 2011 (UTC)


 * Soft-redirect to Wiktionary, which has an entry on this idiomatic term that people are likely to look up. Thryduulf (talk) 12:23, 25 May 2011 (UTC)
 * Oh, I was sure I had checked for one. A soft redirect is obviously preferable to deletion. 68.35.40.154 (talk) 18:38, 25 May 2011 (UTC)

 * → Islamic views on oral sex (links to redirect • [ history] • )

Delete; 'Cunnilingus in Islamic law' shows up in search suggestion. One can search for 'Islamic views on oral sex' directly instead and skip the redirect Carl Francis (talk) 13:52, 25 May 2011 (UTC) 'The above is preserved as the archive of an RfD nomination. Please do not modify it.'
 * I don't see the problem. All redirects show up in search suggestions, and all redirects can be avoided by searching directly for the target. Is there a specific problem with this particular redirect? —Кузьма討論 14:02, 25 May 2011 (UTC)
 * keep this seems like a very useful redirect. It got nearly 6000 hits last month and has 5500 this month as of yesterday. These are probably at least partly driven by it's inclusion on the Cunnilingus article, as it saw a massive traffic increase since being added in this edit on 14 March. Even if the redirect was bypassed, the traffic likely would still be greater than the 300-400 views per month (high for a redirect) it was getting at the start of the year (due to mirrors, search engines and peoples' memories).
