 * The result of the discussion was delete. Just Chilling (talk) 03:13, 27 May 2015 (UTC)


 * Paravian Raiders → Star Fleet Universe (links · [//en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Paravian_Raiders&action=history history] · stats)     [ Closure:  ]

Delete as useless WP:CRUFT. This is a Minor Power of the Star Fleet Universe. It's not helpful as a redirect because someone searching for this would want specifc information on this subject, of which Wikipedia has none. Tavix | Talk 18:34, 20 May 2015 (UTC)

 * The result of the discussion was delete. --BDD (talk) 13:41, 27 May 2015 (UTC)


 * LIGLY → Title (Meghan Trainor album) (links · [//en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=LIGLY&action=history history] · stats)     [ Closure:  ]

Unlikely search term based on the initials of a song that is not known by them (and is not individually notable; the redirect points to its parent album). –Chase (talk / contribs) 16:16, 20 May 2015 (UTC)
 * Delete. I don't understand how that abbreviation goes to that title in any way (and yes, I have checked the target). WP:RFD nonsense. Si Trew (talk) 21:43, 20 May 2015 (UTC)

SCOTLAND

 * The result of the discussion was keep. n.b., stats.grok.se is not case sensitive. I think WMF Labs has a case-sensitive page view tool. --BDD (talk) 13:40, 27 May 2015 (UTC)


 * SCOTLAND → Scotland (links · [//en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=SCOTLAND&action=history history] · stats)     [ Closure:  ]

Delete per MOS:ALLCAPS. A country is not spelled with all caps. Pickuptha&#39;Musket (talk) 15:36, 20 May 2015 (UTC)


 * Keep. MOS:ALLCAPS only applies to text in articles, some internal search tools are case-sensitive, and this is useful: gets (roűghly) 6 to 8 thousand hits a month, i.e. about 1 hit for every 125,000 Scotsmen, which is about 124,999 hits per 125,000 scotsmen fewer than I try to hit each month. (Wha dar meddle wi' me?) Si Trew (talk) 21:51, 20 May 2015 (UTC)
 * Comment: The all caps redirect gets exactly the same hits as the target, unless groks needs fixing. Pickuptha&#39;Musket (talk) 09:47, 23 May 2015 (UTC)


 * Keep and tag as alternative capitalization -- Lenticel ( talk ) 00:24, 21 May 2015 (UTC)
 * Keep R from alternate capitalization -- 65.94.43.89 (talk) 04:57, 21 May 2015 (UTC)
 * Keep - directs readers to what they're looking for. Any argument that has to reference the Manual of Style should be disregarded. Wily D  17:07, 21 May 2015 (UTC)

 * Lika A Cat → Like a Cat (links · [//en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Lika_A_Cat&action=history history] · stats)     [ Closure:  ]

Redirect was created by mistake. It's not recently created, so not eligible for speedy deletion. Random86 (talk) 08:10, 20 May 2015 (UTC)
 * Comment' I was wondering about Leika, (transliteration from Russian or Ukranian) the first mammal in space, but he was a dog, so that's a long stretch. Mentioning only to eliminate. The R goes to Leyka, a Greek neighborhood, which seems unlikely or at least should be hatted, but we can't hat Rs in themselves. I will list separately: Laika. Si Trew (talk) 21:34, 20 May 2015 (UTC)


 * Keep as a R from other capitalisation. Steel1943  (talk) 16:57, 21 May 2015 (UTC)
 * In case it matters, it's not just an R from other caps. There's also a typo at the end of "Like" (e→a). Tavix | Talk 17:03, 21 May 2015 (UTC)
 * Yep, it mattered. My eyes deceived me, and my vote had been struck. I'm neutral now due to there being multiple issues in the redirect. Steel1943  (talk) 17:20, 21 May 2015 (UTC)


 * Delete I don't see this a plausible. At best one could potentially argue that someone could mistake like a for lika but even if that happen we would get lika cat not lika a cat.--70.27.231.57 (talk) 01:37, 22 May 2015 (UTC)
 * Delete too many spelling issues to be a plausible misspelling. -- Lenticel ( talk ) 07:19, 27 May 2015 (UTC)

 * LMlYD → Love Me like You Do (links · [//en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=LMlYD&action=history history] · stats)     [ Closure:  ]

Unlikely search term based on the initials of a song that is not known by them. –Chase (talk / contribs) 07:04, 20 May 2015 (UTC)

 * NGfY → Title (Meghan Trainor album) (links · [//en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=NGfY&action=history history] · stats)     [ Closure:  ]

Unlikely search term based on the initials of a song that is not known by them (and is not individually notable; the redirect points to its parent album). –Chase (talk / contribs) 07:00, 20 May 2015 (UTC)
 * 'Delete. I don't understand how that abbreviation goes to that target in any way. (Yes, I checked the target.) WP:RFD nonsense. Si Trew (talk) 21:45, 20 May 2015 (UTC)

 * TBP (I) → Title (Meghan Trainor album) (links · [//en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=TBP_(I)&action=history history] · stats)     [ Closure:  ]

Unlikely search term based on the initials of a song that is not known by them (and is not individually notable; the redirect points to its parent album). –Chase (talk / contribs) 06:58, 20 May 2015 (UTC)
 * Delete. WP:RFD nonsense. Not at target. Not even is "TBP" without the qualifier at the target. Is this just some WP:PROMO for the album, that seems to be becoming more common here, or is that just my impression? Some marketing geezer just throws in random stuff into Wikipedia to get hits?

 * The result of the discussion was keep. Deryck C. 21:34, 29 May 2015 (UTC)

For consistency with 2200s (decade). GeoffreyT2000 (talk) 04:32, 20 May 2015 (UTC)
 * 2100s (decade) → 22nd century (links · [//en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=2100s_(decade)&action=history history] · stats)     [ Closure:  ]
 * Note: These were originally bundled, but I decided to WP:BEBOLD and split them. Tavix | Talk 05:52, 20 May 2015 (UTC)


 * Keep 2100s (decade) I see no reason presented for deletion. The article covers the decade. 2100s (century) should also be created to redirect there -- 65.94.43.89 (talk) 05:42, 20 May 2015 (UTC)
 * Keep because events from that specific decade are covered in that article. Tavix | Talk 05:52, 20 May 2015 (UTC)
 * Comment. 2200 is not in the 22nd century. It is in the 21st century. Centuries start at 1, not 0. Though this may be WP:PEDANTRY, do we have WP:CENTURY? Si Trew (talk) 21:15, 20 May 2015 (UTC)
 * We do, it seems, but only for how to write them (R to []), not what they mean. Since patently there was no 0 BC nor AD 0, by common consent I think, the first century ran from 1–100, the second from 101–200, etc cetera. There was a bit of a schism between the years (in Catholic countries) and 1752 (in Great Britain and her Empires) from the Julian to the Gregorian calendars, but that is neither here nor there: Centuries start at 1 and end at 100. You wouldn't say a cricketer who made 99 runs had made a century just because he or she started having no runs. Si Trew (talk) 21:22, 20 May 2015 (UTC)
 * You must have very short eyesight. An article was presented for deletion (WP:CENTURY although the other entries on the same subject did not explicitly mention it) but all similar are WP:RFD nonsense. Take that for the others as well, please. Si Trew (talk) 21:57, 20 May 2015 (UTC)


 * Weak Keep: The article 22nd century covers some events from this decade, but has no section devoted to it. Dimadick (talk) 18:42, 28 May 2015 (UTC)
 * The above discussion is preserved as an archive of the debate. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page.

2100s (disambiguation)

 * The result of the discussion was delete. --BDD (talk) 13:36, 27 May 2015 (UTC)


 * 2100s (disambiguation) → 22nd century (links · [//en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=2100s_(disambiguation)&action=history history] · stats)     [ Closure:  ]

For consistency with 2200s (disambiguation). GeoffreyT2000 (talk) 04:32, 20 May 2015 (UTC)
 * Note: These were originally bundled, but I decided to WP:BEBOLD and split them. Tavix | Talk 05:52, 20 May 2015 (UTC)


 * Delete as confusing because the targeted article isn't a disambiguation. Tavix | Talk 05:52, 20 May 2015 (UTC)
 * Comment. I think you would have been better keeping them together, or recombining them: the point basically is when a century starts. That didn't stop me celebrating New Year's Eve in 1999/2000 either, but I had another go at celebrating the Millenium in 2000/01, as well. Si Trew (talk) 22:00, 20 May 2015 (UTC)
 * You didn't understand my rationale. It has to do with the fact that the qualifier says (disambiguation) and is pointed to an article that is NOT a disambiguation. It has nothing to do with anything you just said. Tavix | Talk 22:02, 20 May 2015 (UTC)
 * I did: I probably just put them in the wrong one. I agree with you on your !vote, just I thought they were similar enough to stay together. Certainly that is misleading to take something ending in (disambiguation) to that which is not; no doubt about that. Nice to see you. Si Trew (talk) 22:41, 20 May 2015 (UTC)
 * Delete, not a DAB, should not be marked as such, per Tavix. Si Trew (talk) 22:48, 20 May 2015 (UTC)

 * Leaf Hedger → Heath Ledger (links · [//en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Leaf_Hedger&action=history history] · stats)     [ Closure:  ]

I'm pretty sure this was created as a joke. Tavix | Talk 03:17, 20 May 2015 (UTC)
 * Comment it can be considered a transposition error typo -- 65.94.43.89 (talk) 05:46, 20 May 2015 (UTC)
 * That's not the case here because it's more than just a single transposition. The "th" in heath was also replaced with an "f". Tavix | Talk


 * Comment Created by a strange and disruptive sockmaster . --Mr. Guye (talk) 20:18, 23 May 2015 (UTC)
 * Retarget to Hedge trimmer as an R from incorrect name. Steel1943  (talk) 21:07, 23 May 2015 (UTC)
 * I gave this some more thought, and I think it may do more harm than good being retargetted since there are several gardening tools that can be used for leaves or "hedging" (which actually had to do with finances) ... so, delete. Steel1943  (talk) 18:17, 27 May 2015 (UTC)

 * BSPN.com → ESPN.com (links · [//en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=BSPN.com&action=history history] · stats)     [ Closure:  ]

Inappropriate redirect because BSPN.com is actually a completely different website for the "Big Screen Preview Network." Tavix | Talk 03:03, 20 May 2015 (UTC)
 * Comment it can be considered a R from typo, especially as the uppercase "E" looks like an uppercase "B" when using serif fonts, so a plausible misreading of the term -- 65.94.43.89 (talk) 05:45, 20 May 2015 (UTC)
 * Comment, I am not sure I am quite with 65.94, but with removal of excessive whitespace from adjacent characters on small-resolution devices (the word escapes me, in my youth typographers will call it klining (which is red, and not listed at the DAB at kline) and can't find it on Google in that way - you know what I mean, in a proportional font, sans or serif, you abut adjacent characters so there is not too much whitespace, WA being the classic example) I can see how the B and the S could bump into each other. Not perhaps so much on the bottom part of the S. TSi Trew (talk) 21:30, 20 May 2015 (UTC)
 * It's called kerning. But that has nothing to do with the point I'm making. If you type "BSPN.com" into an address bar, you don't get espn.com, you get something totally different. It is harmful and confusing that we would make BSPN.com redirect to a completely unrelated website. Tavix | Talk 22:07, 20 May 2015 (UTC)
 * That's the fellow I wanted, thanks. I may have misinterpreted you, I was thinking with these touchscreen or handwriting devices that are popular now, from a visual (not typing) aspect would they be confused. Delete as WP:RFD confusing, since the two (according to a search from My Favourite Search Engine) are patently not the same, the first-named being the Big Screen Preview Network i.e. presumably (no way I am going to click through) movie trailers from the big film/movie producers.
