This redirect is no longer appropriate, as I'm assuming it's a non-notable song and Sabrina Carpenter has a single with the same title now, so it's confusing (WP:XY). – nyuszika7h (talk) 13:13, 30 September 2016 (UTC)
 * Disambiguate to both places, as disambiguating is a way to solve the WP:XY problem. Include a see also to Smoke or Fire and Fire and Smoke (perhaps there's a primary topic, but I haven't investigated that at all). -- Tavix ( talk ) 14:23, 30 September 2016 (UTC)
 * Disambiguate to both targets. --Animalparty! (talk) 00:26, 1 October 2016 (UTC)
 * I thought disambiguation pages are only supposed to be created when there's at least some blue-linked articles, but I guess I was wrong. nyuszika7h (talk) 08:16, 1 October 2016 (UTC)
 * Retarget - It seems like there's a clear-cut primary target case given that the pop single is at least more well-known if not more notable. We have the song mentioned at Sabrina_Carpenter. We can add a hat-note if desired (no objections to that). CoffeeWithMarkets (talk) 11:22, 1 October 2016 (UTC)
 * Disambiguate since an editor is willing to do that. Can't really compare the long-term significance of both singles. SST  flyer  11:03, 2 October 2016 (UTC)

Keeling Island

 * The result of the discussion was keep. Withdrawn by nominator. (non-admin closure) SST  flyer  11:07, 2 October 2016 (UTC)


 * Keeling Island → Cocos (Keeling) Islands (links · [//en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Keeling_Island&action=history history] · [//tools.wmflabs.org/pageviews?start=2016-08-31&end=2016-09-29&project=en.wikipedia.org&pages=Keeling_Island stats])     [ Closure:  ]

(Neelix redirect) Not sure. The C (K) Islands are more than one island, but "North Keeling Island is an atoll consisting of just one C-shaped island", so perhaps it should be retargeted there? Since nothing is called just plain "Keeling Island" this is a bit WP:RFD nonsense (or WP:XY) and perhaps better to leave it to a search. Si Trew (talk) 08:15, 30 September 2016 (UTC)
 * Keep Even if it's incorrect, Cocos (Keeling) Islands seem to be far and away the primary topic here. I didn't find much else in my search. Outside the C (K)s, the only other topics I could find was a book entitled From Heligoland to Keeling Island: One Hundred Days of Naval War and an island in Alabama. -- Tavix ( talk ) 13:47, 30 September 2016 (UTC)
 * Keep - This seems like a reasonable mistake, and redirects don't have to be completely accurate, just helpful, after all. We also have Barac Obama and many other one-accidentally-lost-letter-off type redirects.. CoffeeWithMarkets (talk) 11:28, 1 October 2016 (UTC)
 * OK, speedily withdrawn as Keep. Thanks both for the sanity check. Si Trew (talk) 05:14, 2 October 2016 (UTC)

DFQ

 * The result of the discussion was delete. --BDD (talk) 18:34, 7 October 2016 (UTC)


 * DFQ → Robustification (links · [//en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=DFQ&action=history history] · [//tools.wmflabs.org/pageviews?start=2016-08-31&end=2016-09-29&project=en.wikipedia.org&pages=DFQ stats])     [ Closure:  ]

"DFQ" isn't mentioned at the target, making the connection unclear. -- Tavix ( talk ) 00:04, 30 September 2016 (UTC)
 * Comment - I'm seeing the term "DFQ" being used as a short reference to differential equations. There are examples here and here. CoffeeWithMarkets (talk) 03:16, 30 September 2016 (UTC)
 * I'm not sure about this. While there's nothing sketchy or wrong looking there, this appears to be non-standard as far as mathematics instruction goes (personally, though it's been a while now, I don't remember a reference to "DFQ" in either the post-grad or regular college courses that I've taken). CoffeeWithMarkets (talk) 03:23, 30 September 2016 (UTC)
 * The only abbreviation I've heard of for differential equations is 'diff eq'. I don't doubt DFQ has been used before, but I don't think it's a strong enough connection for a redirect. -- Tavix ( talk ) 13:55, 30 September 2016 (UTC)
 * Delete: can be re-created if the term is added reliably sourced, to any article. Pam  D  12:25, 30 September 2016 (UTC)
 * Delete also seeing this as an acronym for Design For Quality.  ODE and PDE are notable though. AngusWOOF  ( bark  •  sniff ) 02:08, 1 October 2016 (UTC)
 * Delete - I'm not seeing a coherent enough meaning here, and it looks like deletion really is the best move then. CoffeeWithMarkets (talk) 11:13, 1 October 2016 (UTC)
 * Delete due to vagueness. It seems to be the abbreviation of the chemical desfluoroquinolone as well -- Lenticel ( talk ) 02:55, 2 October 2016 (UTC)
 * Delete. Searches also give me Internet slang for somewhat less polite initialisms, but we don't seem to have it on Internet slang (<- ) or anywhere else. Si Trew (talk) 05:16, 2 October 2016 (UTC)
 * Disambiguate because this can be an acronym for multiple topics. SST  flyer  10:55, 4 October 2016 (UTC)
 * But as far as I can tell we don't have those topics, we don't have Design for Quality for example, so I am not sure what the DAB would look like... Si Trew (talk) 12:09, 7 October 2016 (UTC)
