Basic Integrated Operating System



 * 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. Thryduulf (talk) 11:03, 4 July 2013 (UTC)


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

Deletion of the redirect "Basic Integrated Operating System". Rational: The term BIOS stands for Basic Input/Output System in computing since 1975. It never stood for Basic Integrated Operating System, therefore this redirect will only cause confusion if people run into it. It has no edit history and no incoming links. Therefore we can safely delete it. Matthiaspaul (talk) 21:53, 4 June 2013 (UTC)
 * Keep. While you are right in saying that this phrase is not the correct expansion of BIOS, it seems to be occasionally used, and so people may search for it trying to find information on BIOSes. — This, that and the other (talk) 03:52, 5 June 2013 (UTC)
 * Keep. The redirect title is technically wrong but it is commonly wrong.  One of the primary purposes of a redirect is to point a user to the correct page where they learn the true meaning of a thing.  Rossami (talk) 20:27, 27 June 2013 (UTC)

 * The result of the discussion was retarget to Conservation management system. This would appear to be an "obvious retarget." --BDD (talk) 17:44, 8 July 2013 (UTC)


 * → Department of Conservation (New Zealand) (links to redirect • [ history] • )     [ Closure:&http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Redirects_for_discussion/Log/2013_June_4&preload=Template:Rfd_starter&action=editnbsp; [ keep]/[ delete] ]

Generic topic not covered in regional article Department of Conservation (New Zealand), suggest delete (or if obvious retarget - I didnt see one) and I will remove from CMS dab Widefox ; talk 13:25, 4 June 2013 (UTC)
 * retarget to Conservation management system, which seems to be an article about this (or a very similar) concept. It also explicitly mentions the NZ department. Thryduulf (talk) 23:09, 6 June 2013 (UTC)

 * The result of the discussion was keep. Thryduulf (talk) 11:00, 4 July 2013 (UTC)

(Apologies, I have no idea how to do this) This page was the original title for an article (now (after several moves) at Herluf Trolle-class coastal defence ship. It was moved after 6 minutes to a correct spelling of the name. The advice at WP:CSD#R3 is that it should be kept, but do we really need to? It hardly serves any purpose, and the article has enough redirects already. Xyl 54 (talk) 10:12, 4 June 2013 (UTC)
 * → Herluf Trolle-class coastal defence ship (links to redirect • [ history] • )     [ Closure: [ keep]/[ delete] ]
 * Keep It's definitely a plausible search term—that is, a reader could reasonably use the phrase in search of the target article. --BDD (talk) 17:00, 11 June 2013 (UTC)

 * The result of the discussion was retarget and tag as . Thryduulf (talk) 10:58, 4 July 2013 (UTC)


 * → Particle accelerator (links to redirect • [ history] • )     [ Closure: [ keep]/[ delete] ] (note also this discussion)

I know that English Wikipedia community has very high tolerance to typos and even mojibake in titles, but everyone can see that collsion itself is a red link and was never created. Should we have all possible variants: colision, cllision, collison, collidion, … ? Incnis Mrsi (talk) 08:12, 4 June 2013 (UTC)
 * Retarget to Event (particle physics) (where Particle collision redirects) and tag with R from misspelling. --BDD (talk) 19:03, 10 June 2013 (UTC)
