 * → Magoon (links to redirect • [ history] • )     [ Closure: [ keep]/[ delete] ]

A phusdo-cross-name-space redirect. May have useful edit history. Tideflat (talk) 15:32, 7 April 2012 (UTC)
 * The nominated page isn't useful to anyone, but its contents were incorporated into Magoon. Histmerge and delete. - Eureka Lott 22:19, 7 April 2012 (UTC)
 * Keep, history merges are complex and in this case not needed. Add a note to Talk:Magoon stating that there is more page history there. D O N D E groovily   Talk to me  14:45, 11 April 2012 (UTC)
 * Move edit history to Talk:Magoon/Category:Magoon, and add an attribution template to Talk:Magoon stating where the edit history is located. Then Delete the category. Per how history subpages work. 70.24.248.211 (talk) 06:47, 13 April 2012 (UTC)

 * → Template:Multiple issues (links to redirect • [ history] • )     [ Closure: [ keep]/[ delete] ]

Artificial intelligence seems to be a better target. Magioladitis (talk) 13:47, 7 April 2012 (UTC)


 * retarget to {{tl|Artificial intelligence]} There is no reason that I can see for Ai to point to multiple issues. It is also not used in the main name space at all. Tideflat (talk) 15:39, 7 April 2012 (UTC)
 * Retarget. This (and below) appear to stem from 's previous name "Aritcle issues". Thryduulf (talk) 16:17, 7 April 2012 (UTC)

 * → Template:Liveship Traders Trilogy (links to redirect • [ history] • )     [ Closure: [ keep]/[ delete] ]

Target name is better. We don't need orpahaned redirect anymore. Magioladitis (talk) 12:38, 7 April 2012 (UTC)

 * → Template:Citation needed (links to redirect • [ history] • )     [ Closure: [ keep]/[ delete] ]

We don't need this. We have enough redirects for this well-established template. I don't even understand what "An" stands for. Magioladitis (talk) 12:34, 7 April 2012 (UTC)
 * delete it's short for 'attribution needed' from the first version of it, but with all the other variations and being hardly used (in no articles that I can see) it's not needed.-- JohnBlackburne wordsdeeds 13:34, 7 April 2012 (UTC)
 * delete unless appropriate target is found. Aervanath (talk) 07:38, 8 April 2012 (UTC)

 * → Template:WikiProject Poland (links to redirect • [ history] • )     [ Closure: [ keep]/[ delete] ]

It doesn't follow any WP... or WikiProject... scheme. I would expect it redirects to the same target as Poland. In general, the name is not a very good choice for a WikiProject banner redirect. Magioladitis (talk) 12:25, 7 April 2012 (UTC)

 * → Template:Reflist (links to redirect • [ history] • )     [ Closure: [ keep]/[ delete] ]

Reflist has 2 miilion transclusions i.e. well-established. We don't need redirects that take more time to type and are unused right now. Magioladitis (talk) 10:38, 7 April 2012 (UTC)
 * Keep. The edit history shows the reason for this redirect's creation - namely so that old revisions of articles that used this template show references. It's caused no problems in this guise since it was created in 2009 and I see no reason why it would start doing so now. Thryduulf (talk) 16:09, 7 April 2012 (UTC)
 * Keep - I don't remember exactly why I created this (ie for what article), but it's not causing any harm to keep it, and it saves a lot of headaches when looking at oldids. Ed [talk] [majestic titan] 19:55, 7 April 2012 (UTC)

 * → Hans Heyer (links to redirect • [ history] • )     [ Closure: [ keep]/[ delete] ]

Delete. This redirect is confusing because Kenneth Heyer is son of Hans Heyer. Cybervoron (talk) 07:51, 7 April 2012 (UTC)
 * Keep. Kenneth is mentioned in Hans' article. — This, that, and the other (talk) 08:17, 8 April 2012 (UTC)
 * Keep. Redirects from a non- or semi-notable family member to the more notable subject are routine and are effective at preempting the creation of content that will fail to meet Wikipedia's generally accepted inclusion criteria.  Rossami (talk) 13:16, 10 April 2012 (UTC)

 * → Template:Infobox military conflict (links to redirect • [ history] • )     [ Closure: [ keep]/[ delete] ]

Weird name, difficult to remember and more difficult than the original name. Redirect is orphan and unused. Magioladitis (talk) 07:47, 7 April 2012 (UTC)
 * keep to maintain the attribution history, this was merged into the main template box and it also continues to get hits. It's not causing any problems so there's no reason to delete. Thryduulf (talk) 16:15, 7 April 2012 (UTC)
