This seems an unlikely and unneeded search term. Delete. — Gorthian (talk) 23:26, 9 January 2017 (UTC)
 * Delete. The only uses in Google hits I can make sense of appear to be in the field of linguistics, particularly discussion of tropes, where it is rendered "impactw", but this usage does not appear in our articles and I can't see any other good target.

 * The result of the discussion was  disambiguate.   The discussion below has established multiple items that pass WP:DABMENTION, so disambiguation is the most plausible solution.   Deryck C. 12:08, 27 January 2017 (UTC)

(Eubot) Well done Eubot, er, I don't know what to say about this except WP:RFD nonsense. The English spelling of Pi (letter) is, er, "pi". We already have and so on. Si Trew (talk) 18:17, 27 December 2016 (UTC)
 * And of course Eubot said it is a, which patently it is not. Si Trew (talk) 18:45, 27 December 2016 (UTC)


 * Weak retarget to Missionary (LDS Church). Google indicates that this is very frequently used to refer to "Preparation day", and Preparation day is a redirect to Missionary (LDS Church) (a section that no longer exists). My suggestion is week though as "Preparation day" is not mentioned other than in passing there and I don't know anywhere near enough about the topic to see if that's correct or there's a better target. Thryduulf (talk) 18:46, 27 December 2016 (UTC)
 * I aint got any problem with that, as Thry says, retarget there unless something better comes along. It could be targeted at the DAB at Peter Day, but I donno that's wise. Si Trew (talk) 19:11, 27 December 2016 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Comment Added P day, which is, FYI on List 8. -  C HAMPION  (talk) (contributions) (logs) 04:23, 28 December 2016 (UTC)
 * Retarget both per Thryduulf as usage seems to be prominent. -  C HAMPION  (talk) (contributions) (logs) 04:24, 28 December 2016 (UTC)
 * Retarget per . Besides the LDS articles, there are a few usages such as a preservation day to move retirement funds into pensions in South Africa   but it's not clear where there's an Wikipedia article to explain that.  There's also P-Day  for military which goes to: Military designation of days and hours so that should be a hatnote.  Some authors goes by P. Day but they aren't notable.  It should not go to Pi Day as there aren't any news articles or books that shorten Pi to P for this event.  AngusWOOF  ( bark  •  sniff ) 18:06, 2 January 2017 (UTC)
 * Retarget to Military designation of days and hours as it's actually mentioned there. Good find, AngusWOOF! -- Tavix ( talk ) 21:05, 8 January 2017 (UTC)
 * Based on prominence in google results I think the LDS usage is primary but the military usage deserves a hatnote or there should be a dab between the two. Thryduulf (talk) 14:49, 9 January 2017 (UTC)
 * Oppose disambiguation per WP:DABMENTION. -- Tavix ( talk ) 01:08, 11 January 2017 (UTC)
 * Dabify per 's findings, there isn't much else to do given that the term can equally well refer to several entities. – Uanfala (talk) 22:12, 9 January 2017 (UTC)

Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Steel1943  (talk) 23:25, 9 January 2017 (UTC)
 * Dabify - There is Pea Ridge Day (redirected from Pea Day). There is also Penis Day, which redirects to Hōnen Matsuri. I could discuss Party Day, Prince Daye, and Pay Day. However, partial matches are discouraged. What would happen to Pete Day? By the way, not to be confused with B Day. George Ho (talk) 10:23, 17 January 2017 (UTC)
 * No, don't disambiguate all days that start with the letter "P", that's beyond trivial. -- Tavix ( talk ) 18:05, 17 January 2017 (UTC)
 * Sorry for the misunderstanding, Tavix. I wasn't planning to dab all of them. Actually, I mentioned the links for the inclusion of the planned "P Day" dabpage. George Ho (talk) 22:08, 17 January 2017 (UTC)

Void (Cosmic Entity)

 * The following is an archived discussion concerning one or more redirects. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on an appropriate discussion page (such as the redirect's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this section.


 * The result of the discussion was  delete.   The consensus is that we shouldn't keep the redirect as is. Closing as delete without prejudice against creating a disambiguation page at Void (cosmic entity).   Deryck C. 17:33, 19 January 2017 (UTC)


 * Void (Cosmic Entity) → Amatsu-Mikaboshi (comics) (talk · links · [//en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Void_(Cosmic_Entity)&action=history history] · stats)     [ Closure:  ]

I'm not sure about this redirect. There is no definitive statement at the target article about "void", just vague hints that he came from "void". And it's hard to tell whether or not he is a "cosmic entity". Obviously, I'm not familiar with this universe, so I need guidance from experts here. — Gorthian (talk) 23:24, 9 January 2017 (UTC)
 * Comment I'm completely out of my depth here so I've left a message at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Comics asking for input. Thryduulf (talk) 00:08, 10 January 2017 (UTC)
 * Comment If this is kept in some form, the lower case Void (cosmic entity) should be created as a redirect to the same target. Thryduulf (talk) 00:09, 10 January 2017 (UTC)
 * Hmm I'd expect this (with a lowercase disambiguator) to point to some article about the primordial state of nothingness that existed before the universe sprang into being. In mythology of course. I'm not able to find such an article, but there's relevant content in the sections of Creation myth, and the two articles Ex nihilo and Chaos (cosmogony). – Uanfala (talk) 00:40, 10 January 2017 (UTC)
 * Adding that whatever the target, it will have to have a hatnote pointing to Void (astronomy). – Uanfala (talk) 00:43, 10 January 2017 (UTC)
 * Comment Void is the name of Marvel character Sentry (Robert Reynolds). Amatsu-Mikaboshi (comics) is a god in the Marvel universe but is not named Void, despite having aspects that represent the void. Strangely though he is not included in the List of cosmic entities in Marvel Comics so I suppose he's technically not a Cosmic entity (Marvel Comics) but a Gods (Marvel Comics) and Mystical Marvel Entity (according to the navbox). And Void (comics) points to a Wildstorm Universe character. AngusWOOF  ( bark  •  sniff ) 01:39, 10 January 2017 (UTC)


 * Comment Hi, I made that redirect. I would also prefer lower cases in the redirect. Void is a Cosmic Entity appearing in the cosmic triology (ME1,ME2,ME3) of the RPG called Marvel Super Heroes. It has nothing to do with that Sentry character. Amatsu-Mikaboshi is more then a god as seen in the miniseries called Ares, he also embodies the void (before there was an universe) in the Marvel Comic Universe, that's why I made a redirect. But a redirect to Void would be also okay. Greetings - Weapon X (talk, contribs) [[Image:Flag_of_Germany.svg|25px|Germany]] 08:50, 10 January 2017 (UTC)
 * Void (Cosmic Entity) should have been a redirect to the concept of Chaos King, but because that is also already a redirect, Void links to that redirected place. (The Chaos King is also an Cosmic Entity and is listed in Category:Marvel Comics abstract concepts and List of cosmic entities in Marvel Comics. As for the picture in the Amatsu-Mikaboshi article, its in fact depicting the Chaos King.) For further reading I recommend the mini-series Chaos War and the one-shot Chaos War - Chaos King. - Weapon X (talk, contribs) [[Image:Flag_of_Germany.svg|25px|Germany]] 13:32, 10 January 2017 (UTC)
 * so is he named Void or not? And should he be added to the Cosmic entity lists? AngusWOOF  ( bark  •  sniff ) 23:08, 10 January 2017 (UTC)
 * Yes, the character in the Marvel Super Heroes RPG is called Void and should be included in List of cosmic entities in Marvel Comics. But he is not a mainstream Marvel character as far as I know. The mainstream Marvel character with the same cosmic function is called Chaos King (but Chaos King could also be just another aspect of Oblivion/Death). I think they picked up the concept of the character Void (from 1988) and transferred it to the new story of 2006. - Weapon X (talk, contribs) [[Image:Flag_of_Germany.svg|25px|Germany]] 17:19, 11 January 2017 (UTC)


 * Retarget to Void (astronomy), which is currently the target of Cosmic void. The void (astronomy) article is clearly the primary topic, and it begins by explaining that "Cosmic voids are vast spaces between filaments (the largest-scale structures in the Universe), which contain very few or no galaxies." -- Notecardforfree (talk) 02:20, 11 January 2017 (UTC)
 * Sounds reasonable, but I'm not sure the astronomical void is a kind of cosmic entity. – Uanfala (talk) 10:26, 13 January 2017 (UTC)
 * , astronomers, physicists, and cosmoligists will occasionally use the term "cosmic entity" to refer to entities in the cosmos (see, e.g., this example), and I have added this definition at cosmic entity. My understanding is that "cosmic void" is a fairly ubiquitous term in cosmology and astrophysics, and to that extent, I think it is far more likely that readers who enter the term "Void (Cosmic Entity)" will be looking for information about a void in the cosmos than a comic book character. Furthermore, per WP:PRIMARYTOPIC, if we consider the long-term significance of the concept of a "void" in the cosmos, then the void (astronomy) article is clearly the primary topic and should be the target of this redirect (in fact, the concept of a "cosmic void" has been traced back to ancient Greece). -- Notecardforfree (talk) 00:39, 16 January 2017 (UTC)
 * Oh good then, I wasn't aware of the astronomical use of the term. Thank you for adding it to the dab. However, I'm not sure there's a primary topic here. For me, Void (cosmic entity) has strong associations with mythology and the kind of stuff that is treated in Ex nihilo and Chaos (mythology). – Uanfala (talk) 00:50, 16 January 2017 (UTC)
 * , that's a fair point. The more and more I think about this, the more and more I realize that disambiguation may be the most useful solution for readers, and I have struck my original vote. I agree that readers may be searching for information about philosophical or religious concepts (notwithstanding potential overlap between the attempts of philosophers and physicists to describe the nature of the universe -- see Philosophy of physics). Incidentally, I just discovered The Void (philosophy). Maybe we should create a disambiguation page at void (cosmology) and retarget void (Cosmic Entity) to that page? At the moment, void (cosmology) sends readers to void (astronomy). -- Notecardforfree (talk) 01:29, 16 January 2017 (UTC)
 * Sounds like a good idea, . In similar cases, the practice so far has been to retarget such redirects back to the main dab page, ideally to a section of it. But given that this main dab has a lot of entries and it couldn't be sensibly reorganised so that the astronomical, mythological and comics entities find themselves in the same section, it would clearly be in the interest of readers if a new disambiguation page is created at Void (cosmic entity) or Void (cosmology), which I'd be happy to protect from the inevitable onslaughts of MOS-citing dab nazis. –  Uanfala (talk) 01:15, 17 January 2017 (UTC)
 * Quick, alert Mike Godwin! Seriously though, how likely a search term is "Void (cosmic entity)"? Is INCDAB really preventing us from improving the encyclopedia here? --BDD (talk) 22:06, 17 January 2017 (UTC)
 * :) It was about time this happened. – Uanfala (talk) 01:26, 18 January 2017 (UTC)
 * Delete Vague, unlikely search term, retrieving few hits. --BDD (talk) 22:06, 17 January 2017 (UTC)
 * 2 hits a day is above the viability threshold for a dab page, assuming the traffic doesn't all come from the search box drop-down suggestions. – Uanfala (talk) 01:26, 18 January 2017 (UTC)
 * Two a day? I'm seeing five a month, based on the "stats" link above. What are you looking at? There's closer numbers to what you're saying in the last 10 days, but RfDs logically drive interest. There's a reason the stats link automatically uses a span going up to a day before the nomination. --BDD (talk) 14:33, 18 January 2017 (UTC)
 * I was looking at the stats from last year. Pageviews appear to have oddly slumped after October. – Uanfala (talk) 19:58, 18 January 2017 (UTC)
 * Interesting, though I think that trend is important. It's hard to say for sure, but what I suspect is that someone linked to this title in an article, and that got fixed around October. That is, the number of people finding this term in the search box has actually been consistent, but there used to be a factor of live links via the redirect. My theory is going to be very hard to prove, though, and is probably impossible to disprove. --BDD (talk) 20:41, 18 January 2017 (UTC)
 * Delete as I'm in agreement with BDD. From reading this discussion, there are too many things this can kind of be if you squint hard enough and there's not a definitive 'best' target for it. Therefore, I believe deletion is the best outcome here. -- Tavix ( talk ) 15:57, 18 January 2017 (UTC)
 * Delete - Given the vagueness and a lot of potential confusion, I'd rather that we just get rid of this redirect. CoffeeWithMarkets (talk) 15:45, 19 January 2017 (UTC)

Between no caps and needless quotes, this redirect is implausible. Not actually a quote, just the decapitalized name of the film in quotes. While r-from-move, the article was at this title for only a few hours back in 2013 before being moved (first to, from where it was then moved to Like Twenty Impossibles about a year later). Receives essentially no hits (3 in 90 days), neither is nor should be wikilinked and its use (be it through search engines or on-wiki search) is fully covered by respectively the article title and the redirect (Google etc. nor on-wiki search have any difficulty finding an otherwise-identical title when the sole differences are absent-initial-capital and present-quotes).

 * Delete per nom. No major dabs at this point besides primary topic. AngusWOOF ( bark  •  sniff ) 22:31, 9 January 2017 (UTC)
 * Keep. Several sources about George Washington Bush use this construction. As long as there are two or more people on the George Bush dab page that might be called "George W. Bush", this redirect is entirely appropriate. — Gorthian (talk) 22:53, 9 January 2017 (UTC)
 * That, is a WP:TWODABS situation. George Washington Bush is linked in the hatnote at George W. Bush; a non-issue IMO.--Nev&eacute;–selbert 23:27, 9 January 2017 (UTC)
 * Question: How does WP:REDLINK apply here? We don't want an article called " George W. Bush (disambiguation) ". — Gorthian (talk) 22:53, 9 January 2017 (UTC)
 * Someday, someone might take the time to make an actual dab for George W. Bush. Until such time, the link should stay red to encourage its creation.--Nev&eacute;–selbert 23:27, 9 January 2017 (UTC)
 * Somehow, I don't see that becoming long enough to break off into a page separate from George Bush. Plus, we don't want to encourage it now, since it would only be WP:TWODABS. — Gorthian (talk) 23:33, 9 January 2017 (UTC)
 * Keep per Gorthian and tag as . Thryduulf (talk) 00:13, 10 January 2017 (UTC)
 * That hardly makes sense. There are 0 incoming links from articles and per WP:2DABS such a dab page is superfluous.--Nev&eacute;–selbert 00:40, 10 January 2017 (UTC)
 * A separate disambiguation page just for "George W. Bush" would indeed be superfluous but that is not what we have here, we have a disambiguation page at George Bush that disambiguates multiple related ambiguous terms - there are hundreds (at least) of other examples of exactly this situation. The lack of article links doesn't matter, as people do search directly for disambiguation pages, e.g. when they know or think the topic they want is not the primary topic but don't know what the article title uses as a disambiguator. Thryduulf (talk) 00:59, 10 January 2017 (UTC)
 * Only 4 hits in the last 90 days.
 * Searching renders George Bush presently as the second top result.
 * Anyone living under a rock for the past number of decades searching for George W. Bush to get to George Washington Bush would be greeted with the hatnote mentioning the latter at the #top of the former's page. The idiom is imperative in this context since I doubt only a handful of people on the entire planet would be expecting to land on a dab after searching "George W. Bush".
 * I strongly believe this redirect is WP:COSTLY. How it has any value is beyond me.--Nev&eacute;–selbert 01:07, 10 January 2017 (UTC)
 * That's four times people would be unnecessarily inconvenienced without any benefit to the encyclopaedia.
 * Search results are not guaranteed and are not always shown (it depends on exactly what method you use to navigate).
 * Nobody is likely to expect to land on a dab page after searching "George W. Bush" (and they wont, regardless of what we do with this redirect) which is why they are searching for "George W. Bush (disambiguation)" - they are explicitly seeking a disambiguation page. One likely scenario is that someone is reading a source that is referring to "George W. Bush" that was written before George Walker Bush became prominently known by that name (a period of around 170-200 years) and so they are trying to find out who it is referring to. They expect "George W. Bush" to take them to the article about the 43rd president of the USA, know that is not the article they are looking for and so head straight for the disambiguation page which will list the articles of everybody by this name.
 * You are entitled to you opinion that this is costly, but you need to present some evidence to back that up if you want your opinion to count for anything. So far you have failed to do that. Please see comments above for just one scenario where this is useful, and I make no claim that it is the only one (see also WP:RFD point 5). Thryduulf (talk) 17:21, 10 January 2017 (UTC)
 * You are seriously grabbing at straws here. First off, I must emphasise that hardly anyone is using the redirect and practically nobody will be disaffected by its deletion; to suggest times people would be unnecessarily inconvenienced is silly hyperbole. With regard to your second counterpoint, are you sure about that? and  both give me John Smith and Adam Smith (disambiguation) as the top result, I very much doubt the same wouldn't happen with this redirect. Thirdly, most readers aren't technical like us and the word "disambiguation" would appear to them as nothing but technobabble. Per WP:2DABS your third argument reveals a noticeable discrepancy. Readers will certainly find George Washington Bush in the event that they can't remember his middle name, I assure you. Your third point would make a brilliant short story, but in the real world it is most likely far-fetched. The long-term significance of the 43rd president as opposed to the pioneer is more than crystal clear. And in response to your fourth point, per WP:RDAB there's no need to redirect from "topics that can easily be found with a search" and that (in turn) brings me back to my second point. All in all, this redirect is pointless. If someone named George William Bush gets a Wikipedia article, I'd probably advocate your position. But there's only one other George W. Bush on Wikipedia, and readers will be best served through the hatnote at George W. Bush per 2DABS and through the search engine per RDAB. Besides, per WP:REDLINK a fully-fledged dab for any other George W. Bushes would be more likely created in those circumstances.--Nev&eacute;–selbert 20:51, 10 January 2017 (UTC)
 * "Hardly anybody" is a very subjective assessment and not "nobody", and no matter how many there are you want to inconvenience them for no benefit to the encyclopaedia. You've completely missed the point about search results not being reliable - it is not possible to guarantee that search results shown to you today will be the same as the search results shown to somebody else tomorrow or next week - and you have completely ignored the point about search results not being shown to everybody. Your "technobable" point is insulting to readers and completely ignores that almost all editors are also readers and that many readers who are not editors become familiar with Wikipedia's naming conventions. As several people have now pointed out, we don't want to encourage the creation of a disambiguation page at this title (which is what a redlink does), suggesting you might not be actually understanding the opposing arguments. The lack of need to create redirects from topics that can be easily found with a search is not the same thing as delete redirects that have been created, and are being used, because I don't like that it was created. Long term significance is completely irrelevant - we are not debating who is the primary topic here, we're assisting people who want to find people who are not the primary topic, and we shouldn't force people to load a page they know they don't want to read (the president's article, an unknown number of search engine result pages, an invitation to create an article, and invitation to search...). Thryduulf (talk) 21:41, 10 January 2017 (UTC)
 * I don't intend to "insult" anybody (can we please avoid borderline personal attacks?) Honestly who is really going to search for "George W. Bush (disambiguation)"? Can you name a precedent? Have you any evidence that anyone would really search for this, apart from yourself? You are being overbearingly pedantic with your hypothetical scenarios that you could write a novel. Per WP:2DABS (policy not essay) a disambiguation page is completely superfluous. Do we have Lloyd George (disambiguation)? No sir, we don't because such a dab page is unnecessary and a waste of space given the hatnote at David Lloyd George. You say "it is not possible to guarantee that search results shown to you today will be the same as the search results shown to somebody else tomorrow or next week". Where is the evidence for that claim? With regard to REDLINK, for the record I don't necessarily want to encourage the creation of an actual George W.

 * Note Per this brief discussion, it appears that in situations that don't allow for the easy input of diacritics, ae is a common way to write ä even in Finnish, and I don't think there's reason to suppose that ö would be an exception. – Uanfala (talk) 14:36, 9 January 2017 (UTC)

Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Thryduulf (talk) 15:00, 9 January 2017 (UTC)
 * Comment It seems there is a need to clarify how Finnish works when it comes to the letters Ä and Ö. The Finnish orthography article says that The Germanic umlaut or convention of considering digraph ae equivalent to ä, and oe equivalent to ö is inapplicable in Finnish. This seems to have given people the idea that substituting ae for ä and oe for ö is wrong in Finnish... which is perfectly true. You can't do that. But substituting a for ä and o for ö is also wrong in Finnish. If you go to Finnish Wikipedia, you'll have a hard time finding any redirects of either type.
 * What Finnish speakers do when the letters ä and ö can't be used varies from speaker to speaker and situation to situation; and while substituting ae for ä and oe for ö is not the most common solution, it does happen reasonably often. That's the answer to the wrong question, though, since it's not Finnish speakers who might use this redirect. A more relevant question is: are English speakers likely to spell it like this? A look at what native speakers (of Finnish or any other language) might do if forced to doesn't really help answer that.
 * For example, the Estonian alphabet (unlike the Finnish alphabet) natively includes the letter Ü; and when ü can't be used and some kind of substitute is needed, a common solution is to replace it with the letter y. Needless to say, this doesn't mean we should scrap all Estonian Ü->Ue redirects and replace them with Ü->Y ones; most users of the English Wikipedia would have no idea that Estonians do that, and very few of them would guess. And Estonian enwiki users will use Ü and won't need the redirect.
 * (This is not to say that Estonian Ü->Y redirects couldn't sometimes be useful on enwiki; but those would be special cases.) Sideways713 (talk) 23:08, 9 January 2017 (UTC)

2013 has long since gone, but there is no clear target to point these to and no information in National Assembly (Mali), Elections in Mali or List of Presidents of Mali (where President of Mali redirects) about when the elections are next scheduled (2018?) or how likely they are to occur then as both 2013 elections were due to be held earlier.

This is a likely search term, so I'm not advocating deletion, but the current target is wrong as the current next election is scheduled for 2020. I'm not sure what the best target is, the 2020 election doesn't have an article yet, Elections in Serbia has a brief description in the lead but no mention of dates; Elections in Serbia is just a table of results from the 2016 election with no associated prose; National Assembly (Serbia) has the most prose, but again no dates and points back to Elections in Serbia as the main article.

 * Keep. I find redirects between "List of cities in X" and "List of municipalities in X" very useful when I'm looking for lists of large settlements in X. It means I do not need to know ahead of time how the local administration is organised in X and what terminology it uses. Spain seems to have municipalities and autonomous cities on the same administrative level and so there is no confusion between the two - the target takes me exactly where I want to go. Thryduulf (talk) 01:58, 27 December 2016 (UTC)
 * Keep per Thryduulf. Even if they were not at the same level, it would seem likely that all cities are classified as some sort of municipal government, and it would still be helpful to readers to take them to a broader topic. Patar knight - chat/contributions 07:42, 27 December 2016 (UTC)
 * Retarget to Castile and León. In principle Thryduulf and Patar Knight are correct that city and municipality are not mutually contradictory terms — although not all municipalities are cities, all cities are municipalities, because a city is a particular type of municipality rather than a separate class of thing. But in this particular instance, the current target only lists the municipalities that are not classed as cities, while we have a separate list of cities in the target that I've proposed.

 * To be fair, I think the distinction in this case is that "municipality" is the actual legal designation of the non-city municipalities in Spain — so it's excluding cities because they're designated as "City" rather than "Municipality", for the same reason that we distinguish between the legal (actually has the legal status of Capital-T Town) and common (any smallish place that has a name whether it's incorporated or not) senses of "town" when it comes to listing and categorizing towns.

Delete. By-elections in the United Kingdom are not regularly scheduled events and occur in a given constituency only if the sitting MP dies or resigns, there is no by-election currently scheduled in Rotherham nor is it likely there will be one soon. Thryduulf (talk) 11:32, 9 January 2017 (UTC)
 * Delete. This appears to have been preemptively created before the seat was actually vacated in 2012, on the basis of a WP:CRYSTAL prediction that McShane's resignation looked to be in the offing (though he did indeed resign a few days later) — and I'll grant that while it all occurred late enough in the year that it was briefly possible that the by-election might have not taken place until 2013, it was scheduled and held quite quickly as these things go, so the date was only up in the air for a few days at most and the article was promptly moved to its final title. But the target is now a past event, not a future one, so maintaining a redirect from "next" is no longer appropriate — and since by-elections are not held at fixed or predictable intervals, there's no potential alternative target for a predictive "next" to be repointed to.

Parti Québécois leadership elections contains no information on future elections, and implies that there is no regular schedule for such elections which were held in 1968, 1985, 1988, 1996, 2001, 2005, 2007, 2015 and 2016, meaning that there is no suitable place (that I can find) to point them. Thryduulf (talk) 11:01, 9 January 2017 (UTC)
 * Delete. These are both leftovers from page moves, because the articles were first created at a time when it was known that there would be a leadership election but its exact date was not yet formalized — so they were created at "next", and then moved to the current titles once the dates were confirmed. But party leadership elections do not work like general elections in Canada; they are not held at fixed or predictable intervals, but are held whenever the leadership becomes vacant, regardless of whether that's six weeks or sixteen years after the previous leadership race. So there's no basis for them to become a new standalone article at this time — there's literally nothing verifiable to say yet except "one will eventually take place, the end", and even that isn't genuinely verifiable yet because it always remains within the realm of possibility that a political party could dissolve before another leadership race is ever actually held.

(Eubot) test case. The gruenen don't traeumen. Created from, which is or will be shortly an. There's no point taking a German redirect to an English title, stripping its diacritics and calling it an when the target doesn't have diacritics. That's just WP:RFD nonsense. There's no point (well, it's OK in German, but in general) marking it as whenn the diacritics would be absolutely necessary in that language. We don't have, so it ends up being just nonsense, really. Si Trew (talk) 14:35, 26 December 2016 (UTC)

 * Keep. Nominator's snarky implication that "Queretaro" would inherently represent a different place than "Querétaro" does simply does not wash. Again, Wikipedia does have an established consensus in place to keep redirects from unmarked forms in place when the target has a diacritic in it, because users may not know how to type or where to place the diacritics — even I have trouble actually keeping straight on whether it's "Querétaro" or "Quéretaro" or "Quérétaro", because my French (in which the latter two spellings would be more intuitively plausible) interferes with my limited Spanish skills. And that consensus does not only apply to cases where the redirect title and the target title are identically worded but for the diacritic; any potential title being redirected to the main article should always have both the Querétaro and Queretaro forms both in place. Bearcat (talk) 16:52, 9 January 2017 (UTC)

(eubot) another redirect from a redirect that, as I said below, are made only for the purpose that is said explicitly at.

Broken Wiktionary redirect. KATMAKROFAN (talk) 04:18, 27 December 2016 (UTC)
 * Disambig or revert to this revision, we have articles at Multiple Kill Vehicle, Relativistic kill vehicle, and Exoatmospheric Kill Vehicle and "kill vehicle" alone seems like a likely search term for either of the last two certainly and possibly the first as well. Further Kinetic kill vehicle is a redirect to Projectile. This was converted to a Wiktionary redirect (even though Wiktionary doesn't have any content at this title) by user:Thumperward, apparently unilaterally, and then later reverted back to the soft redirect when an IP restored the content. Note that Kill Vehicle redirects to this title. Thryduulf (talk) 13:59, 27 December 2016 (UTC)
 * That Wiktionary doesn't have an article for this random phrase was an oversight. However in this case it is correct that we have pages with "kill vehicle" in the title that one might be looking for, so I've converted it into a proper disambiguation rather than the weird and unacceptable "one-sentence dictdef followed by a long see also section" thing that used to live there.

(Eubot) Not sure. Created from. After a series of page moves, that has ended up at having an definition only given at, which is on the DAB at , which is on the DAB at , which is where this one has stayed, lonelily pointing at a DAB that doesn't mention any term near anything like it to an English-speaking audience. I don't know what to do about this. Considering that both DABs only have three entries each, it would make sense to combine them at Pechenga, but this should probably be retargeted to Pechenga (urban-type settlement), Murmansk Oblast, where it is mentioned. That being said, the disambiguation terms are hardly illuminating: I imagine literal translations from Russian (what is an "urban-type settlement"?

(Eubot) Created from, which was tagged as. (I've changed that, to .) For a bot then to create an from an  to a target without diacritics is just absurd. No need for it, delete it.

&lt;rant>I presume this was created on the false premiss (I assume) that the bot would serve to prevent creating duplicate articles (since that was the premiss given at some previous Eubot approval), as a kinda layman's WP:SALT. That is a bad premiss to start with, because we don't salt things until an actual problem arises, not a potential one; but even so, it would not make any sense for creating redirects from redirects, literally because redirects are not articles, but extended because redirects are created for to get people to where they are likely to want to go, and if you add more redirects to the pile, that makes searching harder, not easier: that's giving someone a choice they didn't need to make. In short, the bot rules were far too loose because as far as I can tell it was never discussed or got approval, and a simple rule like "don't create redirects from redirects" would have cut out probably 90% of the Eubot redirects I and others bring here rather than the vast majority that are quietly kept; probably 90% of the remaining 10% could have been avoided by "don't create a redirect from one that has been categorised".

(Eubot) Three more entirely unnecessary redirects created from three marginally useful redirects to an article title we have with an English name. Let's parler francais. Delete all, WP:RFD. When something has an English title and a French title, it's not really necessary to franglaicise the French title: surely the three existing redirects were enough for a search? As ranted above, 90% of the Eubots I (and others) list here are redirects created from redirects: most I keep perfectly happily, and silently, so if you think I just am on some kind of delete-crusade you are mistaken, because the ratio is about 50 kept to 1 brought to RfD, at the moment. That is to say, in defence of Eubot, it did quite a good job, but because it hadn't approval or even discussion nobody had considered the edge cases, and "don't create redirects from redirects" is a bloody obvious one. And since it created 130,000 redirects on this run, there are a lot of edge cases, even if it's only 2% of that. (In practice it's higher because the redirects from redirects tend to unveil other problems). Si Trew (talk) 13:54, 26 December 2016 (UTC)
 * I've had a success with taking some Eubot ones that vary only in one letter in a conjunction or preposition (and have no diacritics) to CSD as housekeeping under G6. "in" and "and" were the ones I got through, on a target that had several Eubot redirects created from redirects from page moves that only varied in these minor details, but I imagine the variations on "La", if not on "Machine", can go by the same route. I don't want to abuse G6, though, hence listing here, but it shows at least it's possible. (I didn't mention Neelix, I just took G6 housekeeping on a target that had plenty of other redirects that varied only in very minor details.) Si Trew (talk) 14:30, 26 December 2016 (UTC)

(Eubot) Delete. is an (very Swiss, the naming of these Swiss categories); it should also be an  (as many redirects in that category probably are.) So there's no point having two more unnecessary disambiguations created by a bot (without any approval that I can find), and tagged as  when the target page doesn't have any diacritics, only the redirect the bot made them from does. It is not as if a real person actually used some sense to create these, and deleting them will not affect people's ability to search or link. One justification for a previous run of Eubot was to prevent accidental creation of multiple articles on the same subject (i.e. using redirects as kind of WP:SALT), but it seems really unlikely to me that someone would do so for these without first bothering to see if Riom-Parsonz existed.

He's Austrian so I suppose it's OK to mangle his name like this, but we don't have an article on him (as you see: and the article redlinks it), so it's a bit weird then to have a redirect to essentially an unperson, i.e. nobody will find out about a "Dr. Geroe" unless they also happen to guess that he is in fact Dr. "Gerö", and if they can guess that "oe" has been back-formed from "ö" they can probably guess to type plain Dr. Gero Cup in the first place.

 * weak keep There are three uses (two independent) that I can find for this, normally that wouldn't be a reason to keep but as they are North American newspaper articles from 1959 and 1960 (e.g. ) it would not surprise me if there are more uses of this from the same era which have not been digitised but which someone would plausibly look up if they came across it. The context is clearly a sports competition so people for this will be looking for information about the cup not the person it is named for, so I don't see the redlink as an issue for this redirect.

 * Keep I take your point about no mention in the target article – there should be one. I created the redirects as some electoral commissions specifically list Country Labor as a separate party in election results, so I considered it a very likely search term and one likely to be linked to from other articles or lists (although AUSPOL editors have tended to just list and link the Australian Labor Party directly. --Canley (talk) 03:23, 9 January 2017 (UTC)
 * Yeah I see your point but I notice it is mentioned in several local city council articles and electorate articles such as City of Lismore and also articles such as Mick Murray (politician) so I think its better to have an actual article on it. Oddly, though, I'm finding it difficult to find references in RS, though I did use the archive option in Google News and found a few references, because I obviously didn't look for local area sources. Maybe that's why, I have never heard of this until now, although I've heard of "Country Liberal" before. -  C HAMPION  (talk) (contributions) (logs) 03:58, 9 January 2017 (UTC)
 * Keep. "Country Labor Party" is a ballot line used by the Labor Party in regional areas, especially in New South Wales, so it's an obvious redirect. It probably warrants a brief mention in the article but it's hardly the most important thing. It is not an actual separate party (as the Country Liberal Party is), so it makes no sense to have it as a separate article. It barely warrants more than a sentence in the main article.

 * Delete I thought these redirects was the result of a page move of an article before the details were known, but it appears that created some kind of placeholder articles/templates in June 2016 for some as yet unannounced leadership votes. These are pointless blank articles, any information one could include occur would be crystal-balling, and even the redirects are unlikely to ever be searched for or linked to. --Canley (talk) 03:17, 9 January 2017 (UTC)
 * Delete. These make no sense. The Drover&#39;s Wife (talk) 10:26, 9 January 2017 (UTC)

 * Delete. Australian leadership spills are not held at fixed or predictable intervals, but occur whenever a party leader calls one because their leadership is being challenged. As insanely common as they've become of late, there's not much reason to maintain articles about, or redirects to somewhere else from, preemptive titles about the next one. When one is called, by definition the exact date will already be known and the vote will take place within a few days at most, so it won't even be useful as a redirect to that article.

I haven't nailed down the exact edit, but as far as I can tell there has been no section by this title at WP:ATA since sometime in 2008, well over 1,000 edits back in its history. And yet, some users are still using it as a shortcut for actually explaining themselves in deletion discussions, apparently unaware that it (for whatever reason) lands you at the section on article age instead. So, not helpful and being misused, if only once in a while. Beeblebrox (talk) 02:58, 9 January 2017 (UTC)

(Pumpie). Delete all. The target doesn't have a diacritical mark, at least in English, so it's pointless if not misleading to have the ones with diacritics (and none is marked as, or ).

 * Keep Litochoron and Litohoro which got 92 and 75 hits this year.
 * Weak keep Litochoron, Greece and Litohoro, Greece (8 and 11 hits respectively) as the versions without the country are very clearly humanly used these do not seem implausible.
 * neutral Litóchoron, Greece (7 hits), Litóchoro, Greece (8) and Litohoron (8) as they seem to be getting possibly human uses, although as every single one of these redirects was visited on the 23rd of December I suspect that to be someone looking though a list of them.
 * Delete the others as they all have 6 or fewer hits, including the visit on the 23rd of this month, which combined with my observations noted at the two preceding nominations is starting to suggest 4 hits per year can be discounted. Thryduulf (talk) 13:53, 26 December 2016 (UTC)
 * Weak keep all as correct alternative transcriptions of either the Demotic or Katharevousa names of the town. Deryck C. 12:32, 6 January 2017 (UTC)
 * As these stand, they all look like plausible Romanisations of the two Greek forms of the name of the town, and probably should be kept. However, that's a lot of redirects and I don't think all of the maintenance burden they pose is worth it. And I don't think there's anything special about this particular town, most places in Greece could have (or be reasonably expected to have) a similar number of redirects. I think there's a need for a general solution to apply across the board, maybe a discussion to come up with guidelines on which romanisations of Greek are plausible? In something like this happens, then the stats given by Thryduulf could be a factor in judging the limits of plausibility. Until that happens, I'd rather these were kept by no consensus. – Uanfala (talk) 21:38, 8 January 2017 (UTC)
