On the cusp. Just on the cusp. (Neelix) it is the silver leaf tree but it doesn't have silver leaves. It's not variegated or whatever. Technically it is correct but does it make much sense for what people would expect to find? Dunno Si Trew (talk) 23:16, 20 May 2016 (UTC)
 * In fact I am hard pushed from the piccies to work out why it is silver at all. Does this come via afrikaans? BUt the back end is latin for silver. Si Trew (talk) 23:19, 20 May 2016 (UTC)

That being said, User:Plantdrew is our expert so I think a ping (there) is in order so that user can fix it up, as that user has requested.

oooh toss up (neelix) This is seth efrican but to me I would think more of a silver birch. While it is in the lede and is no doubt technically correct does it help or hinder?

While his is indeed the first four words of Sonnet 18 I wonder if this is a bit too short.

Absolutely beautiful sonnet (and true, still being said four hundred years later, he probably never expected that) Si Trew (talk) 22:09, 20 May 2016 (UTC)

(neelix) is this OK? The usual word is synechdotal or is this somehthing else? Si Trew (talk) 22:06, 20 May 2016 (UTC)

 * Synecdochical and Synecdochic appear to be used alongside Synecdotal. This redirect appears to be a misspelling (at least judging by the really tiny number of google scholar/books hits). It isn't a very plausible misspelling, is it? Uanfala (talk) 22:56, 20 May 2016 (UTC)


 * Delete - It is a real (but very uncommon) word (112 hits, mostly in academic context), but similarly to all of the terms Uanfala notes above, they all come down to being defined relative to the base word synecdoche. I don't think it's worth keeping. MSJapan (talk) 06:45, 24 May 2016 (UTC)

Wondering if this should now point to the same place as WP:SANDWICHING (image MOS about text being squeezed between floating images) rather than a user essay about fetishes and ham sandwiches. The WP:SANDWICH redirect was created in 2007, at least a couple of years before the image MOS adopted the term, and the "fetish" shortcut hasn't ever been that widely invoked (with at least a few editors using it in reference to image placement, without checking where it landed; I nearly trod on it myself earlier today). McGeddon (talk) 18:32, 20 May 2016 (UTC)
 * Retarget to Manual_of_Style/Images I am the page and redirect creator, and I have no issue with the redirect being redirected away from my user essay. It makes more sense to be a MOS reference anyway.  WLU (t) (c) Wikipedia's rules: simple/complex 18:40, 20 May 2016 (UTC)

I should like to announce

Neelix list #5 is now 98.5% complete. The remaning few are here at RfD. That is because of the combined effort of everyone here at RfD. I should like to thank me mum, me dad, me cat, etc. WE DID IT TOGETHER! WE ALL DID IT TOGETHER. I THINK THAT IS GREAT. They said we couldn't do it, we can do it. Can do anything if you put your mind into it and want to work.

Now only the other four lists to go.

Delete this redirect I created it on purpose just for this. Couldn't even spell "gentlemen" or "announce" when I made it apparently shows how competent I am (I was just so overcome with emotion, hand me a hankie). Si Trew (talk) 17:13, 20 May 2016 (UTC) Si Trew (talk) 17:13, 20 May 2016 (UTC)
 * Delete, obviously. Don't do that. Ivanvector 🍁 (talk) 17:34, 20 May 2016 (UTC)
 * '''Delete and block creator" - intentionally disruptive article creation, not here to build an encyclopaedia. DuncanHill (talk) 18:05, 20 May 2016 (UTC)
 * I don't believe that. I don't believe it. I deliberately created a joke redirect (well not a joke one a sincere but harmless one) because I think the whole RfD Community should be aware of how much progress we have made on the infamous "Anomie list". It is not even an article creation' because a redirect is not an article as established by consensus. I was just basically saying thank you to all the hard working folks at Rfd, User:Lenticel, User:Plantdrew, User:Peter coxhead, User:Mjroots, User:Steel1943, User:Ivanvector, User:Tavix, User:BDD, and I am sure many others that I will know by name when I see them but can't recall right now, but do tireless, usually unthanked work to make the encylopaedia better. If you can't see that it is a thank you I think you should be  blocked. Si Trew (talk) 19:30, 20 May 2016 (UTC)


 * What just happened here is that I created a redirect deliberately to thank people for all their work with the Neelix redirects. I created one.. Neelix created, in good faith, about eighty thousand. If User:DuncanHill wants to think that is an intentionally disruptive creation when I myself, the creator of the redirect, not article, that I then immediately proposed myself for deletion thinks that is a case to delete and block creator then I think that can be added to WP:ANI because I am sick of hearing about it and I am not checking up on that discussion because of the clean hands doctrine, you go to a court with clean hands. I don't think someone is looking in context. As it happens I don't think User:RHaworth has deleted any of mine sent from the speedy list to CSD today but that is coincidence, that user often deletes them and I thank them for it. We just got through almost the whole of the list and I think that is something to celebrate, we cannot just cross off bits of the list we can cross off the whole of User:Anomie number five. That is worth I think saying thanks to everyone who has worked so hard with me to get there. I could have just taken it WP:G7 author requests deletion. I deliberately put it here because I wanted to say thanks to everyone. I missed User:PamD and no doubt many others but whoever I missed, sorry about that, but I do appreciate it and it does not go unnoticed. (sings) Thankless tasks are here again, I get a glass of beer again, then we'll sing a song of cheer again, thankless tasks are here again. It is something of a Stokanovichian effort to get through these and if I miss, I miss. Sorry about that. I don't see User:DuncanHill trawling through the infamous Neelix list though. In fact the only editor who is trawling through that list is me. Now may I get on with it? Or do I have to have more argy bargy? Si Trew (talk) 21:06, 20 May 2016 (UTC)
 * In future please use Usertalk pages to express your thanks, instead of creating nonsensical redirects and needless RfDs to deal with them. Please also stop your relentless efforts to blacken Neelix's name every time you post anything'. Do you want to become the infamous SimonTrew? DuncanHill (talk) 21:31, 20 May 2016 (UTC)


 * Perhaps join WP:WPREDIRECT? They have talk pages and I'm assuming an RFD drive can be organized there? <strong style="color:#606060;">AngusWOOF ( bark  •  sniff ) 23:25, 20 May 2016 (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.


 * Postscript. I do not go around "blackening Neelix' name". For a start I have no idea what Neelix' name is. I believe, if I checked, at the original discussion when this started it was pointed out Neelix had been in newspapers for adding thousands of "articles" to Wikipedia, so I could probably find out easily enough but I don't because I have no truck with Neelix only with the redirects. Neelix I think (just from going through the redirects) is a committed Christian and I am not, but with respect to that religion the Lord asks us to forgive and I for one do forgive, there is no point crying over spilt milk and no point blaming people, that gets you nowhere, Neelix has taken it on his shoulders to stay away from Wikipedia which his ban did not make him do, only not to create redirects. I am in no way blackening his name. I would say about I dunno 25% of Neelix redirects are actually useful and I keep and rcat them. Hard for me to give a percentage because I don't keep count and it depends what subject area it is in.
 * The WP:G6 "Neelix concession" specifically encourages admins (I am not one) to add (Neelix) to redirects when closing them. "Admins are asked to add the word "Neelix" to their deletion rationale in order to clarify that it was done under this temporary extension". Now, how is an admin to know that under the many G6 criteria I am bringing it there under that "temporary extension" (I tend to call it a "concession" but I don't mind what words you use) if I don't say "Neelix". That is just causing admins work for me to go round the houses finding other words to mean the samn thing. Presumably, every admin who closes a redirect (be it by keep, delete, redirect or whatever) and writes "Neelix" is "blackening Neelix' name"? Presumably the wording on the WP:G6 which links to Neelix' user page is "Blackening Neelix' name"? No, just because as a shorthand I say Neelix I do not blacken that user's name. I have tried to point this out many times before I believe that Neelix created these redirects in good faith and the search engine was not as good as it is now. At times they can drive me nuts as I trog through them but just by saying "Neelix" or whatever doesn't blacken anyone's name it just gives other editors useful information that is specifically asked for by the WP:G6 concession. It certainly does not allow any of us not to take due diligence and just wipe them, otherwise I would not have kept about I think thirty today and rcatted them without taking them either to CSD or RfD. What I don't think I have ever done is retargeted one but that is just my own hobby-horse because if they exist they will be "in the wild" not just on Wikipedia and we might break external links. When I am trogging through about a hundred a day I don't have time to check every single redirect in WP:RS – and anyway redirects don't have to be' WP:RS – what I think is due diligence on my part is that if I have any doubt I bring it to RfD so that we get WP:CONSENSUS. I do check individual ones that I think are borderline but in particular when there are forms of words that really just don't exist that is what the WP:CSD is for. I could send the whole lot to CSD instead of asking anyone else's opinion, the G6 concession allows me (or any other editor) to do that, all that does is shift the burden to the admin to make the toss instead of me. In fact most admins do occasionally reject things I list there, they have brains in their heads as well, even though I only list there when I am kinda pretty certain in my own head that it is just absolutely no doubt. As another editor pointed out, a lot of these redirects tend to go feral and end up on other online sites then quoting Wikipedia as essentially a "reliable source" even though we've never said that. Rant over. Si Trew (talk) 13:50, 30 May 2016 (UTC)

Tricky with the "Lady" in the front. (Neelix) While all four at the DAB target would have been "Lady" for a while they were not "Lady" for long, they went on marriage etc to be "Countess" and so forth. I am not sure this is a useful retarget but on the other hand it is not harmful. Si Trew (talk) 16:54, 20 May 2016 (UTC)


 * Move Lady Betty back to Lady Elizabeth Hastings, the title at which it was created (OK, by me) in 2007, and from which Neelix moved it to Lady Betty in Nov 2014. See school names etc to show it is the common form of name. Alternatively, either Keep as redirect to the dab page, or redirect it to Lady Betty and add a hatnote there pointing back to the dab page. No strong views as to which of the 3 we should do, but certainly not delete  the redirect.  Pam  D  18:01, 20 May 2016 (UTC)
 * Keep as redirect. Perfectly proper use of redirect (plausible alternate form of name to appropriate dab page), not in any way, shape, or form, disruptive. DuncanHill (talk) 18:19, 20 May 2016 (UTC)
 * Keep everything as it is. Although Lady Betty's proper name may be "Lady Elizabeth Hastings" (I think that it's not, Lady is an honorific), she is equally known as "Lady Betty" and that title is preferred for natural disambiguation. Ivanvector 🍁 (talk) 18:21, 20 May 2016 (UTC)

oooh tricky. I missed onm this. Because a galactograph and a ductograph are sorta synonyms (in WP:FIRSTSENTENCE) does that mean someone would describe themselves as a ductographer? I missed I admit assuming it is nonsense but my name is not dropped in medical circles, no swoons I get from the Royal College of Physicians, is it real or is it made up? Because of ahem Neelix tendency to have lots of redirects about a certain part of the female anatomy I just missed on this one. is fine and I have marked it as but can you be a ductographer ? Admittedly it is kinda OK syntactically as a back formation but does anyone actually call themselves that? Si Trew (talk) 16:42, 20 May 2016 (UTC)
 * Delete - I don't see any reliable evidence that anybody calls themselves this, or even gets called this by a friend/enemy/boss/neighbor/etc... for all of the talk, I know, that 'redirects-are-cheap' (which is a reasonable observation if used properly), when a redirect is based on nothing more than thin air then lets trash it. CoffeeWithMarkets (talk) 22:31, 21 May 2016 (UTC)

I don't know who wrote it but it was during the Enclosures Act saga. It's a bit well commons by definition are not owned by anyone but everyone.

Now this kinda does and doesn't make sense.

There's a redirect with the same name and target on Commons, and because of 28299, I believe that the Commons redirect overrules this redirect in most situations, so the local redirect doesn't actually work but only creates confusion if someone later decides to retarget the redirect on one of the projects but not on the other project.

(neelix redirect) while I am familiar with single-handed sailing being a good British chap surrounded by the briny, I am not sure that a single-handed sailor is called a single-hander is she or he? The thing is this is actually a WP:TWODABS because single hander only has this listed and for the UK soap EastEnders and I am familiar with that phrase because although I don't watch the show now the then producer Julia someone who started it used to use that phrase when the whole half hour was carried by one actor/character to kinda give you a back story a bit and EastEnders became quite famous for doing these maybe once a year as they were often quite poignant, generally the older characters.

 * Yep that makes sense. When asked do I look up things, no I don't not out of laziness but on purpose. I want to come as an intelligent but ignorant reader and think "what would I expect to find". If I tried to look things up then I would lose on the kinda naivety I want in what a reader coming for the first time to Wikipedia would hope to find. So I am being deliberately ignorant. Suddenly I would be taking this to I don't know some article on physics or whatnot that would make it worse. With the Neelix ones it's for me to list, others to judge, that's how we work in a collaborative effort to improve Wikipedia. If I started becoming some kind of tinpot dictator without asking RfD or CSD or whatever I would be in more trouble than I already am. This is the right call, we do that.

(neelix redirect) there is nothing wrong with this as a word of course although WP:NOTDIC but the target itself is a verb which is usually discouraged per WP:NOUN. It's probably harmlessm, but Isolating can also mean well it can be a depending on your grammar a gerundive or agent noun and we maybe should R it to Isolation? Don't know.

 * Retarget to Isolation, a disambiguation page with many different links. This is one of those situations where going to "Isolating language" or any other one specific retarget would likely be a surprise, or at least too much of a stretch. If anything, my first thought is that the primary usage of the term "isolating" refers to social ostracism, like with someone lamenting: "Her isolating behavior, spending so much time invested in video games, cost her several friends". One could also be talking about scientific analysis in terms of variables and hypothesis testing, like with someone observing: "Isolating the effects of the experimental drug from the other treatments the patients went through is difficult". And don't forget how geography and borders is also a major thing, with people making remarks like: "The new Prime Minister will be an isolating force pushing his nation away from the nearby international community."
 * In short, "isolating" means too many different things to too many different people, so either put it to a disambig page or just delete it. CoffeeWithMarkets (talk) 14:51, 21 May 2016 (UTC)

This is near the mark. It does say it at the target but I don't think we need it (neelix redirect) because it is a very specific Application Programming Interface. I think as a more general term we can take it to separation of concerns or something like that but I think on the whole we don't need it Si Trew (talk) 02:18, 20 May 2016 (UTC)

 * The result of the discussion was retarget to The Preacher (novel). However, I want to take a page out of Bush v. Gore and state that this decision should not be taken as precedent. Typically, articles disambiguated with (book) indicate non-fiction books, and this retarget only makes sense in absence of an article on a novel by this name. A change to the overall conventions of disambiguating with (book) and (novel) should take place elsewhere. --BDD (talk) 19:26, 31 May 2016 (UTC)

I'm essentially reopening this because we had this discussion the other day but with all the other hullaballoo I don't think we genuinely achieved consensus. I think it should go to The Preacher (novel). I hadn't thought or found that. I will try to link the previous RfD. Si Trew (talk) 01:26, 20 May 2016 (UTC)

Declined at CSD. Now tell me in any reliable source that any of the Bentincks were commonly known as Willy or Billy. They were notk at least, not in any reliable source I know of. This is simply WP:MADEUP (Neelix forgot to say). Si Trew (talk) 00:56, 20 May 2016 (UTC)
 * Yet their mate Charlie Bentinck got deleted. I fail to see the logic in this. Just different admins on different shifts, I guess. Si Trew (talk) 01:01, 20 May 2016 (UTC)


 * Keep. Charlie is an entirely different name, but these are plausible nicknames and redirects are cheap. Jonathunder (talk) 01:03, 20 May 2016 (UTC)
 * What about Bill Bentinck then. That one is still under consideration at CSD. They are not plausible nicknames for historical figures. We don't go calling people by those names. I am well aware that Billy and Willy are parlance for people called William but we don't say King Billy the First and stuff. It frankly makes the encylopaedia a laughing stock. Redirects are as cheap to delete as they are to create, that is no argument please read the instructions. Si Trew (talk) 01:07, 20 May 2016 (UTC)
 * And the redirect his first name is actually Victor and as far as I know Bill is not some kind of familiar name for victor. Fortunately we don't have Vic Bentinck which I was half expecting. (User:Tavix took out my CSD tag quite rightly because I had mentioned it here.) Si Trew (talk) 02:07, 20 May 2016 (UTC)


 * Comment I had only a glancing mention at the previous discussion and had totally forgotten about it, thanks for adding it (I guess User:Tavix but whoever did). I think these deserve revisiting because to redirect Bill to Victor is a bit stupid. Si Trew (talk) 10:34, 20 May 2016 (UTC)
 * Delete - I'm concerned about this since there seems like there's not just no evidence that this Lord Bentinck ever went by these names, but there's also no evidence that anybody else ever applied them to him either. However, it appears that some present day real people with the last name Bentinck may, in fact, actually be known as "Bill", "Billy", "Willy", etc. CoffeeWithMarkets (talk) 11:40, 20 May 2016 (UTC)
 * Ach, I hadn't thought of that. I had only been thinking of the earls, barons, and so on. That doesn't change my argument for delete but I agree if there are living people called Billy Bentinck (Bill, Willam whatever) not related or rather not directly to the line of earls and so on then we are in danger of kinda not quite WP:BLP but certainly misleading. I must admit I had assumed, being a rather unusual surname, it was only the members of this noble family that were so called. But I guess they must have had offspring etc. Si Trew (talk) 00:27, 22 May 2016 (UTC)

 * Delete Per CoffeeWithMarkets' point about lack of evidence. We tend to have redirects only where the diminutives were verifiably used for the person in question, e.g. Angie Merkel and Willy Clinton (presumably due to the nickname Slick Willy), but not Jimbo Carter nor Gordo Brown. Note also Ron Reagan (a radio host, not a redirect to the US president) and Dave Cameron (a disambiguation page). 210.6.254.106 (talk) 16:13, 24 May 2016 (UTC)

 * WP:SNOW is not really about number of votes but about the idea that there no possible way there will be any other result. Since this is her birth name, there is no possible way this would end in anyway but keep. Oiyarbepsy (talk) 18:42, 22 May 2016 (UTC)
 * Actually I hadn't noticed (and I did briefly check the target) that this was her birth name, my mistake entirely. Neelix redirects get me like that after a bit, your eyes kinda glaze over and because of the way human beings' eyesight optical system whatever the scientific name for that is does pattern matching one literally can't see it. I had checked the target and just completely didn't see it (I see it now it is bleeding obvious). (Most typographical errors are like that because people read words or phrases not letters, they miss the vast majority of typos in newspapers etc). Completely my mistake on this one.
