Translation of the English title into a language that has no obvious connection to the subject of the target article. NewYorkActuary (talk) 15:27, 9 August 2017 (UTC)


 * Strong delete: No affinity for any Portuguese speaking countries, and also seems to be a misspelling (it's either "incriveis" or "incríveis", neither of which are represented in the redirect) though I'm not great with Portuguese. &thinsp;&mdash; Mr. Guye (talk) (contribs)&thinsp; 16:17, 9 August 2017 (UTC)


 * Delete WP:NOTPROMOTION This appears to be a name of a segment from some YouTubers called "Canal Top 5" or "Canal Top 10", but I can't see where they are connected to any Wikipedia-notable media channels. AngusWOOF  ( bark  •  sniff ) 17:07, 9 August 2017 (UTC)

Delete this redirect to a disambiguation page for multiple reasons:

1. None of the entries have an affinity for Latin.

2. "Eboracum" was the name of the city that is now York, England when it was under Roman rule as part of the province Britannia (see the article: Eboracum). If Eboracum were less notable, it would probably make a great  to York, but New York was never referred to using Eboracum in any shape or form. The translations just don't work like that.

The combined title feels WP:MADEUP. It would be a clever name for a fictional city inspired by New York City, but it doesn't help on Wikipedia. &thinsp;&mdash; Mr. Guye (talk) (contribs)&thinsp; 15:01, 9 August 2017 (UTC)


 * suprisingly, keep For whatever reason there are hits in old books for this, including A Life of George Washington: In Latin Prose, which is just what it says on the box. Mangoe (talk) 15:08, 9 August 2017 (UTC)


 * Comment The Latin name for New York is used in a number of scientific names for organisms; see Special:Search/noveboracensis and Special:Search/noveboracense. In this context it usually refers to the state (or its colonial predecessor). Plantdrew (talk) 16:10, 9 August 2017 (UTC)

Classic WP:XY, similar to Redirects_for_discussion/Log/2017_July_2, this isn't useful. -  C HAMPION  (talk) (contributions) (logs) 05:57, 9 August 2017 (UTC)
 * Comment It was probably about 10 years ago, but as I recall the reasoning behind the creation of this redirect was a "missing topics" redlinks page from a computing encyclopedia. I'm not that fussed about it, it's a pretty unlikely search string, but I think it is a bit different from Mac OS X 10.6 and 10.7 in that this represents a distinct generation of the pre-XP Windows OS. --Canley (talk) 06:53, 9 August 2017 (UTC)
 * Except it doesn't. At the time, MS made two Windows lines, with 95/98/ME in a consumer-oriented line and NT/2000 part of a business oriented line. These two OS lines weren't combined until XP in 2002 or so. Oiyarbepsy (talk) 13:15, 9 August 2017 (UTC)

 * Hinduism in Saba → Saba (talk · links · [//en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Hinduism_in_Saba&action=history history] · stats)     [ Closure:  ]

I wasn't able to find any religious information about Saba, so someone wouldn't even be able to deduct how many people aren't Hindu. We don't seem to have a Demographics of Saba or a Religion in Saba article. -- Tavix ( talk ) 00:08, 9 August 2017 (UTC)
 * Delete as misleading. I've not been to Saba yet but I've been on it's closest neighbor and supply base St Maartin, and if there is one hindu on either island I'd be shocked. Legacypac (talk) 11:42, 9 August 2017 (UTC)
