 * The result of the discussion was Speedy delete for criterion G7 by Anthony Appleyard. (non-admin closure) Steel1943  (talk) 15:42, 3 December 2014 (UTC)


 * Provdrive Racing Australia → Ford Performance Racing (links to redirect • [ history] • )     [ Closure: [ keep]/[ delete] ]

Provdrive Racing Australia established with typo, should have been Prodrive Racing Australia, has now been established correctly and thus request deletion of original incorrect redirect. Ghanpac (talk) 23:28, 1 December 2014 (UTC)

 * The result of the discussion was keep in light of consensus not changing since the previous discussion. (non-admin closure) Steel1943  (talk) 20:45, 9 December 2014 (UTC)


 * Pokemon Z → Pokémon X and Y (links to redirect • [ history] • )     [ Closure: [ keep]/[ delete] ]

The last discussion ended in no consensus. The !vote reason I gave last time still stands:

''As a Pokémon fan, I know for sure a Pokémon Z game does not exist, and if Nintendo were to make a Pokémon Z game, it would not redirect here. PLEASE delete ''.

Bottom line: Redirect not synonymous with its target. Mr. Guye (talk) 22:59, 1 December 2014 (UTC)
 * Speedy keep close - frivolous reposting of a discussion which closed three days ago. There was not a consensus for any action then; there is unlikely to have been a change in consensus in that time. Just for the record I'll repeat my original argument from that discussion: Ivanvector (talk) 16:23, 2 December 2014 (UTC)


 * Speedy Close. Is this a reliable source?
 * If so, the speculation in a reliable source (and marked as such in it) can be mentioned at the target. Si Trew (talk) 19:29, 2 December 2014 (UTC)

Invented name. - TheChampionMan1234 00:49, 21 September 2014 (UTC)

 * Comment. Near the Black Cat Roundabout is a village called Chawston. The history section there says it is recorded in the Domesday Book as Chauelestorne and Calnestorne. I am not sure if that is any use to say so, just sprang to mind. Si Trew (talk) 21:36, 21 September 2014 (UTC)

 * Delete This doesn't even sound like the Boston dialect at all, although, because I'm from near there, perhaps I genuinely can't see the difference. Still I vote delete even if I'm wrong because no one will ever hear this name spoken and not know that it means Boston. — Soap — 20:25, 1 December 2014 (UTC)
 * But they may see it written and not know. I'm British, and this or "Borstun" is how I'd represent my understanding of the local pronunciation of Boston, Mass. in eye dialect (I don't know that I've ever heard a local from Boston, Lincolnshire pronounce the name of that town).

 * Delete CB has lots of potential encyclopedic uses. -- 65.94.171.225 (talk) 06:58, 4 October 2014 (UTC)
 * Keep. We're not arguing about CB but . Wikipedia is not a typing tutor or spelling checker and editors should know to preview things before saving (admittedly I am guilty of frequently not doing so, and having to fix it straight afterwards). As for "potential uses", if any come along their cases can be argued at that time. Admittedly it's not used much: does a bot replace it? Si Trew (talk) 20:27, 4 October 2014 (UTC)
 * no, there is no bot which substitutes it. it's just that, apparently, it is used properly less than 20 percent of the time.  if we deleted it, there would be glaring red visible problem, rather than an easy-to-miss stray &lt;/div&gt; tag when someone types cn incorrectly. Frietjes (talk) 15:13, 5 October 2014 (UTC)

 * This point has been argued over before at RfD (I can't immediately recall what the discussion was, but I'll link to it when I do) with no consensus reached for that opinion. The view was that unless all internal-facing templates include "Wikipedia" every template has a potential encyclopaedic use (e.g. is not about Deutsche Bahn, Databases, DB (car), etc, etc;  does not list articles about facts;  has nothing to do with headgear; etc). Basically, the principle is that we should wait until there is an actual problem that needs fixing (not just a potential for one) and then discuss it then. Thryduulf (talk) 12:33, 6 October 2014 (UTC)

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

Resuscitation is not the same as CPR - it describes the process of correcting physiological abnormalities (eg hypovolaemia in septic shock etc) and is a major part of trauma surgery, where the patient may be breathing for themselves/have a perfusing heart rhythm. I suggest removing the redirect and developing the page content. Mschamberlain (talk) 11:20, 3 October 2014 (UTC)


 * Comment. Mouth-to-mouth resuscitation redirects to artificial respiration, as does mouth to mouth resuscitation. Cardiopulmonary resuscitation uses the phrase "mouth-to-mouth respiration" (my red not theirs) but not "mouth-to-mouth resuscitation". Perhaps a DAB is in order. Si Trew (talk) 13:36, 3 October 2014 (UTC)
 * Disambiguate and include a wiktionary link -- 65.94.171.225 (talk) 06:59, 4 October 2014 (UTC)

First Essex Thameside is a dormant company that was established as a bid vehicle for a contract. As the bid was unsuccessful, it will never trade and fails WP:BRANCH and WP:GNG. The subject article is not deemed sufficiently notable to gain a mention on the parent FirstGroup article.

While on its own not an issue, there has been a recent trend that has seen an article set up as as redirect for each short listed bidder, in this case Abellio Essex Thameside, MTR Corporation (Essex Thameside) and NXET Trains rather than after the winner has been selected. This is an overkill, as the details pertaining to the franchising process are always covered in both the overviewing article (Essex Thameside) and that of the incumbent (c2c). Only when the tender is awarded, is there sufficient information to justify an article being established, this often has a different trading name from the original bid vehicle, a recent example being Virgin Trains East Coast.

The First East Coast, First Thameslink and First West Coast articles have been established on the same lines. Over the past 20 years, FirstGroup has bid for over 25 franchises in the UK, and it would certainly be an overkill to pollute lookup lists with each of these, mostly dormant/wound up companies, if the current practice were applied. D47817 (talk) 10:04, 1 December 2014 (UTC)


 * Procedural note - I have added the rest of the nominations listed at Articles for deletion/Abellio Essex Thameside which was closed and directed to this forum. I did this by hand; some of the links are probably incorrect. Ivanvector (talk) 20:10, 2 December 2014 (UTC)
 * Comment the destinations of many (most) of these are not Essex Thameside as noted above. Also all these redirects need explicitly tagging with . I don't have time to fix either right now. Thryduulf (talk) 20:27, 2 December 2014 (UTC)
 * Comment Only the 4 mentioned are pointing to Essex Thameside. The others are pointing to other 'overview' articles InterCity East Coast, InterCity West Coast, Greater Western franchise and Thameslink, Southern and Great Northern, or to that of the incumbent First TransPennine Express and Northern Rail, but with the same principle. D47817 (talk) 03:29, 3 December 2014 (UTC)
 * I think Thry's comment came while I was in the process of fixing the links and tagging the articles. It took me a while to do by hand, I don't know if there's a tool for this but Twinkle isn't it. Everything above should be correct and properly tagged now. Ivanvector (talk) 15:45, 4 December 2014 (UTC)
 * Keep but not necessarily as is. These bidding company names will appear in reliable sources that date from the time of the bidding and so are all plausible search terms that Wikipedia should have. The target should be the article about the franchise they were used to bid for, where they should be mentioned, unless they are discussed in more detail elsewhere (e.g. an article or section about the specific franchise round or the parent company's article. I don't have time currently to research where this is for all of them). Thryduulf (talk) 20:27, 2 December 2014 (UTC)
 * Comment True, the crux as mentioned below is do we want to encourage/discourage the practice of adding dormant entities in the first place. As previously mentioned the unsuccessful bidders are always listed and cited in the successful bidder's article and where it exists, also the 'overview' page. D47817 (talk) 03:29, 3 December 2014 (UTC)
 * I was just about to post what Thryduulf said. The practice of creating these redirects should be strongly discouraged, but since these have been with us for a while, they should stay, but possibly be retargeted. The problem is I'm not close enough to the topic to figure out what each one of these is, or if the target is appropriate. Ivanvector (talk) 20:36, 2 December 2014 (UTC)
 * Comment If they are to remain, the target is appropriate, its more is their existence appropriate at all. D47817 (talk) 03:29, 3 December 2014 (UTC)
 * In a word, yes. The company names get coverage in reliable (and unreliable) sources and so they are likely search terms. Indeed I disagree with Ivanvector's assertion that the creation of these redirects should be discouraged - notability is not time bound. Thryduulf (talk) 10:01, 4 December 2014 (UTC)
 * I suppose you're right. Of course notability is not temporary, I was questioning whether it should be notable to create redirects for every bidder on a particular rail contract, or whatever these are (I still don't quite get it). But redirects are cheap - as long as they are properly targeted, why not keep them? Gets readers to what (I assume) they're looking for. Ivanvector (talk) 15:45, 4 December 2014 (UTC)
 * These are private companies (or consortia) that are or were bidding for one of the franchises to run passenger trains on specific routes (usually geographically based) for a defined period of time. For example the Essex Thameside franchise is the right to run trains on the commuter routes into London Fenchurch Street railway station. Only one company/consortium wins each franchise and that then becomes (or continues to be if they are the incumbent operator) a Train Operating Company when the franchise starts (normally about 3-9 months after the franchise was awarded), often branded differently to the legal company name (e.g. c2c is the brand name of NXET Trains). The formal bidding process itself normally lasts at least 6 months, but these companies exist for some considerable time prior to that. See privatisation of British Rail, Train Operating Company, and Rail franchising in Great Britain. Thryduulf (talk) 17:16, 4 December 2014 (UTC)
 * Comment While the parent companies, do have extensive histories, the bid vehicles (i.e. the companies being discussed) are generally formed as part of the tender process. For example in the recent InterCity East Coast franchise tender, the FirstGroup, Keolis/Eurostar and Stagecoach Group/Virgin entities were all formed in October/November 2013, at the same time as expressions of interest were called for.
 * My issue with retaining, is the precedent it sets. There must be thousands of companies formed every year that bid unsuccessfully for contracts. Do we really want to encourage the practice of setting up redirects for all of these? As previously mentioned, FirstGroup have made circa 20 unsuccessful bids, would be an overkill to have all of these set up. Bit like on a construction company article such as Balfour Beatty where while appropriate to list the major projects it did complete, would not be so for every job they bid for.

 * Delete per WP:RFD item 3: "The redirect is offensive or abusive".
 * I note Maccy D's is in Wiktionary, but not Maccy D's is not in Wikipedia (McDo is, though). McDicks, McDick's and Mcdick's are all redlink. I must admit I find it amusing that there are only two pages in Category:Scottish restaurants – but McDonald's is not one of them. (I was half expecting it to have been added there as a joke; urbandictionary.com defines "Scottish Restaurant" as "McDonalds".)

 * Delete per above. Not much to add really.  Has been viewed about as much as Bawstun, above, but anyone who wants to search for McDonald's will surely think to type in the proper name; and those searching for Mcdicks may simply have been wondering if it existed.   ekips <b style="color: #162">39</b> 23:31, 1 December 2014 (UTC)

Not mentioned in target article. I suppose it could be, but the article's a mess already, so adding more stuff to it doesn't seem like a bright idea. It is covered here and here, though. ekips <b style="color: #162">39</b> 04:04, 1 December 2014 (UTC)

 * The result of the discussion was keep, rename target, unlink reference in target. JohnCD (talk) 16:21, 8 December 2014 (UTC)


 * The Cosmic Jokers (album) → Cosmic Jokers (links to redirect • [ history] • )     [ Closure: [ keep]/[ delete] ]

This should be a redlink, not a redirect to the group. Otherwise, we're just sending the reader in circles from the Discography section. The article on the group doesn't give any information about the album anyway (besides the release year). Kaldari (talk) 01:34, 1 December 2014 (UTC)


 * Comment. The band appears to be called The Cosmic Jokers, so the target and the redirect The Cosmic Jokers should be swapped. Si Trew (talk) 11:34, 1 December 2014 (UTC)
 * Keep the album redirect, and swap the band redirects as suggested by Si Trew. There are a lot of links to this redirect and it points readers to the information they're looking for. The circular wikilink in the discography should be un-linked to fix the problem. Ivanvector (talk) 15:54, 4 December 2014 (UTC)
