 * GEORGE W. BUSH → George W. Bush (talk · links · [//en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=GEORGE_W._BUSH&action=history history] · stats)     [ Closure:  ]

No affinity for name in all caps, unlike OBAMA for example, where it is prominent on election posters. -  C HAMPION  (talk) (contributions) (logs) 23:25, 20 December 2016 (UTC)
 * Delete - This seems useless. CoffeeWithMarkets (talk) 10:19, 21 December 2016 (UTC)


 * Keep. Perfectly standard that gets used means there is no reason to delete this. Thryduulf (talk) 13:41, 21 December 2016 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Keep. However useless it is, deleting it would be just as meaningless and also quite pedantic. No way this redirect could mislead anyone. Kranix (talk &#124; contribs) 20:55, 21 December 2016 (UTC)
 * Please explain why it is meaningless, having the redirect is, IMO meaningless for there is no special affinity of his name in all caps, R from other capitalization is only meant to be used with valid capitalizations that are likely search terms. -  C HAMPION  (talk) (contributions) (logs) 07:03, 22 December 2016 (UTC)
 * Where do you get that idea? All says is that such redirects "may help writing, searching and international language issues." and all-caps redirects are very plausible and may indeed help writing and searching. The only redirects where "affinity" is a criterion (formal or informal) is foreign-language redirects. Thryduulf (talk) 13:02, 22 December 2016 (UTC)
 * Please see Redirects for discussion/Log/2016 November 3 and Redirects for discussion/Log/2016 October 20. These two examples symbolise they either have affinity or not with a certain capitalization, thanks. -  C HAMPION  (talk) (contributions) (logs) 21:17, 22 December 2016 (UTC)
 * The second of your links is as about an exclamation mark and all-caps, as redirects with trailing punctuation are often deleted regardless of capitalisation it doesn't help determine any precedent for redirects without trailing punctuation. The first link simply establishes that being regularly used in all caps on posters is a reason to keep an all-caps redirect, it does not establish that this is the only reason to keep an all-caps redirect or that lack of that one specific use is a reason for deletion - and even if it did, it takes far more than one discussion to establish a meaningful precedent. Thryduulf (talk) 21:31, 22 December 2016 (UTC)
 * Explain why deletion is meaningless? Huh. Surely the burden of proof is on you to prove there is a meaning to it. I, at least, cannot see how deleting this redirect would improve the encyclopedia. Kranix (talk &#124; contribs) 19:02, 28 December 2016 (UTC)
 * Delete. Our search engine will already transparently send the all-caps name to the right page, even without this redirect. The only way the redirect would be relevant is if someone manually edits the URL in the browser address bar. I don't think we want a million redirects of this form, covering every biography we have. Alsee (talk) 23:46, 26 December 2016 (UTC)
 * Direct URL entry is one, but not the only, case sensitive method of browsing Wikipedia. Should we create all-caps redirects to every biography? no. But equally we should not delete those that someone has bothered to create. Thryduulf (talk) 11:52, 29 December 2016 (UTC)
 * Keep Personal beliefs that the redirect is useless are solved by ignoring the redirect, and no other problems have been identified.  Unscintillating (talk) 23:37, 30 December 2016 (UTC)

 * Donald Trump's Hair → Kacey Jones (talk · links · [//en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Donald_Trump%27s_Hair&action=history history] · stats)     [ Closure:  ]

I think more people will be looking for Donald Trump in popular culture rather than an obscure track. -  C HAMPION  (talk) (contributions) (logs) 21:55, 20 December 2016 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Keep song and album strongly associated with Jones. Rolling Stone claimed it topped comedy album charts. although I'm not sure which chart that is. But news articles mention it as part of her repertoire that she considered for America's Got Talent and her legacy.    AngusWOOF  ( bark  •  sniff ) 03:47, 21 December 2016 (UTC) updated 14:42, 21 December 2016 (UTC)
 * redirect per nom. There are certainly far more people aware of Trump's hair outside of comedy albums. Mangoe (talk) 18:23, 21 December 2016 (UTC)
 * Retarget per nom, to Donald Trump in popular culture. The section about his hair is clearly primary. Note that I added mention of the song (and a link to the artist) at the new proposed target. Anyone looking for the song will still be able to find the artist's article. Alsee (talk) 01:18, 27 December 2016 (UTC)

 * Keep This was previously deleted at Redirects for discussion/Log/2015 October_24.  There was an AfD at Articles for deletion/Donald Trump's hair.  Since there is no overlap, this should remain.  A hatnote would suffice for people who want hair, not music.  Unscintillating (talk) 21:50, 3 January 2017 (UTC)
 * Retarget. The RfD mentioned by Unscintillating should no longer apply because the redirect was deleted for lack of encyclopedic content about his hair, but now there is encyclopedic content specifically about the hair to redirect to. CapitalSasha ~ talk 22:05, 4 January 2017 (UTC)
 * Donald Trump's Hair as the music also newly has encyclopedic content, and with the capital H is a primary topic. Why prefer a Template:R from other capitalisation over a primary topic?  Unscintillating (talk) 22:23, 4 January 2017 (UTC)
 * Kacey Jones has no encyclopedic information about that album. CapitalSasha ~ talk 00:44, 5 January 2017 (UTC)


 * Comment Kacey Jones had the information that the album was on IGO Records, but this was in Kacey Jones, not Kacey Jones.  So I'd suggest retargeting to Kacey Jones.  I've also added the information there that was added to Donald Trump in popular culture, that the song was #1 on the ReverbNation comedy chart.  Retargeting the redirect to Donald Trump in popular culture, besides being redundant to Donald Trump's hair, if done will need a repair at List of things named after Donald Trump.  Unscintillating (talk) 02:25, 5 January 2017 (UTC)
 * Retarget per nom, as it's the capitalisation used by the song. Daß &thinsp; Wölf 16:40, 7 January 2017 (UTC)
 * Retarget per nom and hatnote to current target. Not convinced that the album/song is the primary topic for this search term, and the small details difference is very minor. Would be a WP:SURPRISE to most people. Patar knight - chat/contributions 20:19, 9 January 2017 (UTC)

Taking it to discussion not because I want to delete it, but because I want to retarget it. A more specific target would be to the fictional utterer of this phrase Gordon Gekko. The current target is technically correct, but my suggested target is better. Mr. Guye (talk) 22:11, 19 December 2016 (UTC)  Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus. Relisting comment: Does WP:DIFFCAPS play any part in this discussion? If so, wouldn't only Greed is good target the character that said it, and then the others should target/become a disambiguation page that Thryduulf referenced?
 * Comment I was WP:SURPRISED to learn that "Greed is good" is not an article, or redirect to article, about Thatcherism and/or the materialistic culture that arose in the 1980s both of which are very commonly associated with this phrase, at least in the UK. Thryduulf (talk) 22:22, 19 December 2016 (UTC)
 * Since she personally rejected the slogan in 1988, I think it would be a bit WP:POINTy to consider retargeting to Thatcherism.--Nev&eacute;–selbert 22:37, 28 December 2016 (UTC)
 * Comment - taking a look at the Thatcherism article, I can't see where this term is referenced there at all - admittedly I skimmed the article, but read the Economics, Criticism and Legacy sections, where you would expect to find a derisive term like this. In light of that, I think Mr. Guye's option is a better, more specific, target. And in my view the more specific, the better.  Onel 5969  TT me 12:03, 20 December 2016 (UTC)
 * It is that sort of article that I would personally expect this redirect to point to, rather than necessarily that specific article. Looking for uses, we have quite a few that use it in passing and as the names of episodes and the like, e.g. The Eighties (miniseries), Trump: The Art of the Deal, Go On..., List of Ashes to Ashes episodes. However none of them are the primary topic, so there might be some disambiguation need here. It seems that if we do have the article I'm envisioning it doesn't use that exact phrase. I can see why the nom has suggested the target they have, and it does have merit, but it doesn't alter the fact that it's not where I would expect to arrive. Thryduulf (talk) 20:03, 20 December 2016 (UTC)
 * Retarget to Gordon Gekko given that the saying encompasses a core aspect of the character and his personality. When people think back to these words as criticism of various social trends, they're thinking more of the individual and his actions rather than the movie as a whole, I think. I don't have a strong opinion either way, though. CoffeeWithMarkets (talk) 10:23, 21 December 2016 (UTC)
 * Retarget to Gordon Gekko per CoffeeWithMarkets. The phrase is associated with the film, but it is more closely associated with the character. Daß &thinsp; Wölf</b> 17:13, 22 December 2016 (UTC)
 * Retarget per nom. The films are prominently featured in the character's article's lede anyways so no need for hatnotes. So this is where that Warcraft infinite money cheat came from -- Lenticel ( talk ) 02:32, 23 December 2016 (UTC)

Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Steel1943  (talk) 22:07, 2 January 2017 (UTC) ✅, yes the other 2 can be retargeted as well. --Mr. Guye (talk) 03:57, 3 January 2017 (UTC)
 * Additional relisting comment: Apparently, Greed is Good and Greed Is Good were added to this nomination on 31 December 2016 by Neve-selbert, but this was never stated or noted in the discussion. (For this reason, pinging current participants since no one in this discussion has participated since the aforementioned redirects were added: Thryduulf, Mr. Guye, CoffeeWithMarkets, Onel5969, Daß Wölf and Lenticel.) Steel1943  (talk) 22:19, 2 January 2017 (UTC)
 * Retarget all 3 as per nom. Thanks for the "ping", .  Onel 5969  <i style="color:blue">TT me</i> 22:33, 2 January 2017 (UTC)
 * Retarget all per nom. Thanks for the heads up Steel -- Lenticel ( talk ) 00:17, 3 January 2017 (UTC)
 * Retarget all three. I don't see a strong connection with Thatcher here. When reading the speech linked above by Thryduulf, it seems to me like the saying was only coined or took off due to the film. <b style="color:#da0000;">Daß</b> &thinsp; <b style="color:#0044c3;">Wölf</b> 04:17, 3 January 2017 (UTC)

Pointless redirect as it's almost impossible to create this symbol using a computer keyboard <b style="color:#CCCC00">Joseph</b><b style="color:#00FF00">2302</b> (talk) 18:38, 19 December 2016 (UTC)
 * Comment - "almost impossible to create this symbol using a computer keyboard" is a case of you assuming everyone else has the same setup as you. On a Touch Bar keyboard (which are uncommon now but likely to spread rapidly - where Apple goes others tend to follow), or an Android or iOS OSK, it takes considerably less time to enter this symbol than it does to type "electric light" (two taps and one swipe on a typical phone). &#8209; Iridescent 19:21, 19 December 2016 (UTC)
 * Keep. It is highly likely that people will copy and paste unicode characters into the search box (or other search method) to find out about them or what they represent. In this case the character is "U+1F4A1 ELECTRIC LIGHT BULB". Electric light bulb redirects to Incandescent light bulb but the glyph could be any sort of light bulb so Electric light, where Light bulb redirects, seems the best option (see also  where I will shortly nominate that redirect for retargetting to match light bulb). Thryduulf (talk) 19:24, 19 December 2016 (UTC)
 * Comment Here's the Emojipedia link so you can see what it looks like on most major platforms. Perhaps a useful discussion would be whether this should target electric light or incandescent light bulb. -- Tavix ( talk ) 19:57, 19 December 2016 (UTC)
 * Comment I actually just changed this redirect following a discussion at the Help Desk. If it makes you feel better, it previously redirected to Idea, which is probably all around worse. I think it's all a little silly to redirect from random Unicode characters to articles, but it turns out there is a metric butt ton of these redirects already. Timothy Joseph Wood  19:58, 19 December 2016 (UTC)
 * Yeah, and they come up frequently enough that we have a common outcome section for them. See WP:EMOJI. -- Tavix ( talk ) 19:59, 19 December 2016 (UTC)
 * FWIW, incandescent is probably the better redirect. I just searched for "light bulb", ended up at Electric light, and went with it without much thought. Timothy Joseph Wood  20:01, 19 December 2016 (UTC)→


 * Retarget to incandescent light bulb per WP:REMOJI. It's reasonable to assume that a reader entering this glyph as a search term will not be aware that it is named ELECTRIC LIGHT BULB; if they did they would just type "electric light bulb". The glyph is an image/icon of a traditional incandescent bulb, on most platforms also including the tungsten filament and screw base. While *some* LED and compact fluorescent lights now resemble this design, it's clear that the intent of the various glyphs is an incandescent bulb specifically, not just an electric bulb in general. Ivanvector (Talk/Edits) 22:48, 19 December 2016 (UTC)
 * Keep and redirect to electric light per discussion in the section above -- Plus, the unicode glyph itself is called "electric light bulb" and doesn't specify incandescent. Quiddity (talk) 22:50, 19 December 2016 (UTC)
 * Keep and redirect to electric light. I strongly disagree with the editors above who want to redirect to incandescent light bulb. You can't tell looking at the icon what kind of bulb it is. It could just as easily be an LED bulb or a CFL bulb as an incandescent. The icon should link to the same article as light bulb, and for exactly the same reasons as were discussed when we changed that redirect from incandescent to electric light some time ago.--Srleffler (talk) 02:32, 21 December 2016 (UTC)
 * Keep as an r avoided double redirect. The character is named "ELECTRIC LIGHT BULB"; electric light bulb redirects to electric light per Redirects for discussion/Log/2016 December 19, hence this should as well. — Godsy (TALK<sub style="margin-left:-2.0ex;"> CONT ) 12:55, 23 December 2016 (UTC)
 * Retarget per Ivanvector. I see this on Windows: [[File:Light bulb emoji.png]] I'd say this is definitely an incandescent bulb, considering the yellowness and the wire in the middle. <b style="color:#da0000;">Daß</b> &thinsp; <b style="color:#0044c3;">Wölf</b> 17:32, 23 December 2016 (UTC)
 * Different fonts display these differently. The design by Apple in their font for the "PISTOL" character is a water gun, but 🔫 still redirects to pistol (Redirects for discussion/Log/2016 August 15). How these are displayed will always vary, but the definition ("ELECTRIC LIGHT BULB" in this case) is constant. Another good example is 💻 ("PERSONAL COMPUTER"; Redirects for discussion/Log/2016 December 3. Back in the day, they would have been a desktop computer, now a laptop isn't uncommon, something else may be common in the future. — Godsy (TALK<sub style="margin-left:-2.0ex;"> CONT ) 22:37, 24 December 2016 (UTC)
 * Convert to disambiguation page, or restore to original concept (Idea) As per Emoji, the lightbulb signifies inspiration.  While the name is "Electric light bulb", the wiki page also lists two "also known as" names, which are
 * 💡 Idea Emoji
 * 💡 Light Bulb Emoji
 * IMO, focusing on "light bulbs" or "electric light bulbs", much less "incandescent light bulbs"; to the exclusion of "inspiration"; misses the point of having the emoji. Unscintillating (talk) 01:43, 26 December 2016 (UTC)

 * Disambiguate as proposed, either as a new dab page or by extending Electric light (disambiguation). This is a case where an emoji has a well-defined set of meanings, all based on the light bulb, but they aren't neatly covered under one Wikipedia topic. Some sort of lightbulb disambiguation page is the appropriate solution. Deryck C. 18:34, 12 January 2017 (UTC)
 * Delete This is at the intersection of EMOJI and WP:XY, and as the former says anyway, "The outcome is usually deletion if the glyph is unclear, or its meaning is difficult to determine, or there is no consensus on a target." Electric light? Incandescent light bulb? Idea? Whatever it is, emoji as redirects are basically easter eggs to readers, and we shouldn't fuss too much about them. --BDD (talk) 21:21, 12 January 2017 (UTC)

We don't need a Wiktionary redirect from a foreign language, they are only used for English terms. -  C HAMPION  (talk) (contributions) (logs) 08:29, 19 December 2016 (UTC) <div class="xfd_relist" style="border-top: 1px solid #AAA; border-bottom: 1px solid #AAA; padding: 0px 25px;"> Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Regarget to CJK Unified Ideographs which is the page that deals with the unicode block this character is part of - all single unicode characters should be blue links, either redirects or articles, as they are very likely search terms. In this case the character can, according to Wiktionary, mean any of several abstract concepts in Chinese (e.g. "beautiful", "to praise, commend"), none of which have any particular affinity with the language. In Japanese it is suffix used by female (and rarely male) given names (according to Japanese name meaning "beauty"), and in Korean means "beautiful" or, as part of compounds, "the USA, the Americas". None of these would make good redirect targets so the Unicode block is best. Thryduulf (talk) 09:29, 19 December 2016 (UTC)
 * I don't believe this is a good because if I'm understanding the page correctly pretty much any of the 60000+ Han characters in unicode are eligible for redirects in that case. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Prisencolin (talk • contribs) 06:55, 6 January 2017 (UTC)

No indication that either of these are common names, there is a TV show by this name but is it really a plausible search term? -  C HAMPION  (talk) (contributions) (logs) 07:29, 19 December 2016 (UTC) <div class="xfd_relist" style="border-top: 1px solid #AAA; border-bottom: 1px solid #AAA; padding: 0px 25px;"> Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * weak keep. Describing the earth as a blue and green/green and blue is very common and there is no alternative target to point them to as the TV series doesn't have an article. The first of these redirects got regular traffic until the middle of October, but I haven't figured out what led to that change as it doesn't correspond to any change in the redirect. Thryduulf (talk) 09:47, 19 December 2016 (UTC)
 * Delete the TV series isn't notable to appear in News searches. There is a facebook page for Blue Green Planet which is more about some local organizations, and there's a song called Blue On a Green Planet. So hardly anything that warrants its own article. <strong style="color:#606060;">AngusWOOF  ( bark  •  sniff ) 17:33, 20 December 2016 (UTC)

 * Weak Keep - While not that common, I'm seeing a lot of places refer to Earth as "the blue and green planet" and such... as long as this is helpful enough, I feel inclined to leave the redirects be. CoffeeWithMarkets (talk) 14:45, 13 January 2017 (UTC)

I don't think it would be of much use anyway; I've searched for pages which have a hyphen in their name and put this instead, and I got the right page as the first search result 5 times out of 5.

Delete both. I've categorised some other redirects to this target, mentioned in the lede, as (or pl or sk), but these are not listed there,  these are not at the target at all, and if we're going to have R's from other languages we should at least say at the target what language it is: otherwise it's WP:RFD confusing and jsut leading people up the garden path. Not all languages mentioned have had redirects created for them, for the simple expedient that we don't need them. Specific types of this cake are very popular in Hungary, for example, but we don't have Hungarian-language redirects to this target: instead and  are linked in the lede and redirect to more-specific articles. Si Trew (talk) 14:36, 18 December 2016 (UTC)

Keep both. The reason to keep them is that those terms are the "native" terms for them in parts of the United States. I originally added the Potiza redirect because I was looking for information on it and did not know that the generic term was a "nut roll", having only heard or seen variations of potiza/potica/potika used throughout my entire life as an English speaker in an English speaking country. Moreover, citing WP:RFD is specious in this case because the article specifically lists those as the regional names for them. If potiza (or whatever regional spelling is appropriate) was sufficiently different from a nut roll generally, it would warrant it's own article, but that doesn't make sense since it's just a nut roll, hence the redirect to the main article. There's no confusion here--the only confusion would occur if someone was looking for information on potiza/potica/potika (again, terms sufficiently commonly used in an English speaking country) and nothing came up. DNewhall (talk) 20:47, 18 December 2016 (UTC)
 * Putting WP:RFD confusing is not specious. When a term is not used at the target, a reader not knowing what a potika is finds themselves at "nut roll" thinking right, that's a nut roll, but what's it got to do with a potika? Wiktionary doesn't have that spelling, and Google search results certainly don't favour the idea that it means "nut roll", although https://www.pinterest.com/pin/211950726187348608/, which was my tenth result, uses it (that means Google thinks nine other things that are not nut rolls are more relevant than this). Dictionary.com doesn't list it. It is perhaps an but it's certainly not "specious" to say that this was confusing when I was confused by it. I could't find that any language uses this as its spelling or term: it exists in Malagassy, but means something else (particle). It's probably WP:RFD ("if someone finds it useful, it probably is") but an argument from WP:RFD confusing, not at target and also WP:RFD novel or obscure synonym are perfectly reasonable arguments, too.

Keep both. A Google search for "Potika pastry" shows the term used as an alternative title in many English-language recipes, so I think it's a plausible search term. CapitalSasha ~ talk 22:10, 4 January 2017 (UTC)

Keep both. The OED has a relevant entry for potica (pronounced potitsa), so it's a legitimate (if infrequently used) English word. Potika is and potiza are at least reasonable as a misspelling and pronunciation spelling respectively, and if they're attested (as the previous comments suggest) then they should definitely be kept. – Uanfala (talk) 12:39, 11 January 2017 (UTC)

Delete -- redirect created after 4 AFDs w/o being requested as closing admin directed (see here); also see  and. Given the animus and odium this individual evokes, with a record of four successful AFDs, this redirect was not handled properly. but rather through obsessive fan manipulation Redirect creator notified on talk page (see ). Quis separabit? 04:23, 18 December 2016 (UTC)

 * Hmm, the redirect is fully page protected so I can't add the WP:G6. (Probably why it's not tagged with either.) This will have to be escalated to... somewhere... I don't know where, WP:ANI is probably not the right place. Perhaps an admin reg at RfD, such as User:Thryduulf or User:Tavix, could advise? Si Trew (talk) 14:21, 18 December 2016 (UTC)
 * Note that neither G6 nor G4 speedy deletion are possible here as this has only been previously deleted as an article, the redirect has never been discussed. Thryduulf (talk) 09:00, 19 December 2016 (UTC)


 * Note RfD tag now added. Quis separabit?, in future if you cannot add an RfD tag to a nomination you make please note this in your nomination statement and/or make an edit request on the redirect talk page for an admin to do it for you. Thryduulf (talk) 08:57, 19 December 2016 (UTC)
 * Refine to Kourtney Kardashian and keep protected. The nomination and comments above have some significant inaccuracies. Firstly, Drmies did salt the page after the most recent RfD, see the log entries for 24 June 2005. The following day, user:Anna Frodesiak left a message on Drmies' talk page asking about whether to make it into a redirect, Drmies stated they had no objection and so AF created the redirect (as an administrator they were able to do this despite the page being salted), very helpfully linking to the request on Drmies talk page (Quis separabit? - it is always a good idea to look at the history of a redirect before nominating it). Just under 9 hours after the redirect was created, user:JohnCD fully protected it, and it has remained that way since. The consensus of the second AfD was to delete and redirect to Kourtney Kardashian, which is where Mr Disick is discusse, and I propose that we refine the redirect to point there. The redirect got over 74,000 hits in November, which almost certainly puts it in the top 1% most visited redirects, so it is unarguable that this is something people are looking for and the history of recreation also backs this up. I can find no evidence of any other person with this name who is mentioned on Wikipedia - indeed it's difficult to find anybody else with this name on google, so there is no question the target is correct. Thryduulf (talk) 08:57, 19 December 2016 (UTC)
 * @Thryduulf, @Si Trew (and any others concerned) - I apologize. I read @Drmies comments/instructions at the last AFD (there were 4 altogether!!) and it appeared that he indicated any Disick redirect would require an official request for redirect. I apologize for my misunderstanding. Quis separabit?  02:58, 20 December 2016 (UTC)

(eubot). This one's been bugging me for a while but I better list it. Ive tried to find whether "uu" is a reasonable transliteration for "ū", I only did basic Japanese for a couple of years, and so I didn't do this kind of transliteration, I only did kana and stuff and vocab. From those basics it seems unlikely to me but it's probably OK, just not many English words end in "uu". (muumuu does, but that's Hawaiian.) Si Trew (talk) 00:15, 18 December 2016 (UTC)
 * “Uu” is certainly a reasonable rendition of “ū” (e.g. Hirunaka no Ryuusei). It is odd, however, to render “ū” as “uu” but “ō” as “o”, as this redirect does. Gorobay (talk) 19:07, 18 December 2016 (UTC)

 * Why would they do that? What would they do if they wrote it that way and found it was red? As for WP:RFD, in my opinion we don't need that kind of accidental linking, in general, as it just makes articles worse (spell it right in the article in the first place): K2 largely applies for frequent misspellings, and considering that this has had two hits in the ninety days before this discussion, it's not frequent. I can't see that WP:RFD is very strong since a search is likely to find it whether there's a redirect or not, and WP:RFD has not been demonstrated, nobody here has said they find it useful, and if a mere creation is deemed to mean someone finds it useful – someone on this occasion being a bot – then we might as well shut up shop. And arguing "I find it useful because of WP:RFD" – not that anyone has – would be rather circular. Si Trew (talk) 11:30, 25 December 2016 (UTC)

 * I don’t know what anecdotes you read, but “uu” and “ou” are definitely part of the same romanization system. If you know one, you know the other. Gorobay (talk) 21:18, 9 January 2017 (UTC)
 * That's...not what anecdotes are. I meant that it seems more common to see "uu" than "ou", maybe because the former is more immediately recognizable as a romanization and not just the diacritic-less romanji. Patar knight - chat/contributions 21:41, 9 January 2017 (UTC)

 * note: I put a note about needing step 1 done at Talk:Second Cataclysm if anyone wants to do that, can't due to a ban on redirect-editing.

I would either like to re-target this to Cadillacs and Dinosaurs: The Second Cataclysm or else have it changed into a disambiguation page if we can prove it has any relevance to the "Dragons of Summer Flame" novel in the Dragonlance series. I'm not sure if this was a phrase used in the book or not, but the phrase is not mentioned at the article. User:DoomsDay349 originally pointed it at Chaos War in 2006 and a robot changed it in 2012 due to that now pointing to the DOSF page. I'm a little confused at how this happened since CW was an article about a Marvel Comics event since 2010 but maybe it got moved sometime overtop of something else previously there? Maybe only a mod could answer that... where is the page history of Chaos War from 2006 to 2009? If it was over-wrote could we possibly restore it to Chaos War (Dragonlance) so it's viewable but then redirect that to Dragons of Summer Flame? That way the history of DL's CW could be checked to see if it uses the phrase Second Cataclysm anywhere, and if so, which books it is derived from.

I am wagering on disambiguation page because I do notice that while DOSF doesn't use the SC phrase, the Prisoner of Haven article mentions "It is set in the year 421 AC (After Cataclysm), also known as 38 SC (Second Cataclysm)." in the opening.

Since there is not a chaos war article for Dragonlance anymore, I think a disambig could serve not just to mention the Cadillacs and Dinosaurs game, but also to explain whatever it means in respect to the dragonlance novels, rather than directing to the article of just 1 book which doesn't even explain it.

 * Delete per nom. Only use in media seems to be for Turkish magazines and books, and not an English translated one that refers to that in the culture. I was thinking it could be a possible attempt to sell dolmades though. <strong style="color:#606060;">AngusWOOF ( bark  •  sniff ) 15:55, 2 January 2017 (UTC)

Per the precedents of redirects of this kind, nobody will search for this unless there is a topic with this exact name as an alternative name for something that already has an article, then retarget there, but this is implausible. -  C HAMPION  (talk) (contributions) (logs) 03:43, 2 January 2017 (UTC)

 * When I created these redirects, they were at listed at WP:TOPRED (meaning they had 1000+ views). But now, they only have a few views. That's rather odd, to say the least: Perhaps some buggy bot was responsible for all those views. I suppose I'll vote  Weak Keep , but I don't think it really matters if we keep these or not. Emmette Hernandez Coleman (talk) 13:08, 5 January 2017 (UTC)
 * Delete or retarget. On second thought, I think Champion's right. "A sandwich" (for example) should point to something who's proper name is "A sandwich", it shouldn't just point to an article about sandwiches. Emmette Hernandez Coleman (talk) 03:15, 7 January 2017 (UTC)

Not related to whatever language this is, but from my little bit of research, this isn't a word in any language, but there is an article on the Swedish Wikipedia about a town in the Congo with this name, so perhaps a WP:REDLINK deletion, people looking for that would be mislead. -  C HAMPION  (talk) (contributions) (logs) 03:20, 2 January 2017 (UTC)
 * Delete per WP:RFOREIGN (reminds me of ndizi, the Swahili word for "banana"). A redlink could encourage the creation of an article either about the Congolese town, or some of the wonderfully obscure things that come up in a google search . – Uanfala (talk) 14:44, 2 January 2017 (UTC)
 * Delete per nom. <strong style="color:#606060;">AngusWOOF ( bark  •  sniff ) 15:39, 2 January 2017 (UTC)
 * Delete. I created this redirect in 2007, conflating the Swahili word ndizi with ensete. It is a mistake and I have no attachment to it. By some bizarre coincidence I was just revisiting this line of thought (i.e. looking up *ndisi, realizing it was a misspelling of ndizi, and that the word I actually wanted was ensete) just yesterday or the day before, but had no memory of setting up this ill-begotten redirect. --Iustinus (talk) 23:17, 2 January 2017 (UTC)

 * Delete. Apples and teachers are actually a notable combination (see e.g. ) but the only thing we have on Wikipedia that I can find is a single entry at Apple (sybolism) but that section needs significant cleanup (I'm about to add a tag), the entry is not obvious and doesn't significantly educate readers anyway so at present there is no suitable target for this.

This set is in a mess right now, there are multiple green apples other than Granny Smith, e.g. Michelin (apple) etc, I am happy with any outcome except keeping these. FYI, there are certain tracks in albums with some of these names as well, so maybe a dab page. -  C HAMPION  (talk) (contributions) (logs) 03:06, 2 January 2017 (UTC)
