Delete - Nonsensical redirect Against the current (talk) 20:33, 12 December 2012 (UTC)


 * Delete-Page history is a little tough to follow, but it looks to me like somebody's joke from 2008 that got preserved as a redirect after a move. Obviously nonsensical. An argument could be made for a retarget to Encyclopædia Britannica, but even that seems a little silly. --Fyre2387 (talk • contribs) 21:02, 12 December 2012 (UTC)
 * Delete Does not relate to the target. - Presidentman talk · contribs (Talkback) 21:18, 12 December 2012 (UTC)
 * Delete as nonsense. --BDD (talk) 00:20, 13 December 2012 (UTC)
 * Delete nonsense. Weihang7 (talk) 01:12, 14 December 2012 (UTC)
 * Delete: not helpful as a redirect to Encyclopedia Britannica, and definitely confusing if we redirect it anywhere else. Nyttend (talk) 12:15, 14 December 2012 (UTC)

 * The result of the discussion was delete per WP:REDLINK. Thryduulf (talk) 02:13, 20 December 2012 (UTC)


 * → wiktionary:Special:Search/uroerythrin (links to redirect • [ history] • )     [ Closure: [ keep]/[ delete] ]

A redlink would be more useful. This is a chemical relevant to medical conditions, such as Rheumatism. A redlink would be more useful, unless there is a better place to target this. Ego White Tray (talk) 14:54, 12 December 2012 (UTC)
 * Delete per nom. - Presidentman talk · contribs (Talkback) 21:18, 12 December 2012 (UTC)
 * Delete - redlinking to encourage article creation makes perfect sense here. Wily D 09:32, 13 December 2012 (UTC)

 * The result of the discussion was Snow Keep (non-admin closure) . Emmette Hernandez Coleman (talk) 18:38, 15 December 2012 (UTC)


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

Should probably be deleted; has the dubious honor of being the only redirect on Wikipedia, of all the "Battle of X" pages we have, that assumes people will spell battle batttle and can't be bothered to capitalize Manila. CarniCat (meow) 06:21, 12 December 2012 (UTC)
 * Keep - plausible tttypo, no rationale for deletion. Wily D 10:52, 12 December 2012 (UTC)
 * Keep-Per Willy, plausible typo. Redirects are cheap. --Fyre2387 (talk • contribs) 21:03, 12 December 2012 (UTC)
 * Keep per WilyD. - Presidentman talk · contribs (Talkback) 21:19, 12 December 2012 (UTC)
 * Keep - no real rationale given for deletion, but not an utterly unreasonable typo. Against the current (talk) 15:19, 13 December 2012 (UTC)
 * Delete. Two plausible typos don't always combine to make a plausible typo.  Are users going to make two errors at once?  The pre-RFD hit stats don't convince me that this is being used by anyone except bots.  Nyttend (talk) 12:14, 14 December 2012 (UTC)
 * Keep per WilyD. With 10-20 hits/month consistently, it's clear to me that this is getting more than background noise usage (2-3 hits/month). Thryduulf (talk) 19:47, 14 December 2012 (UTC)
