Redirect is continually reverted to full article by various editors, including paid SPA editors. Once deleted it can be recreated as simple redirect. scope_creep (talk) 12:42, 23 August 2018 (UTC)


 * Keep blocks or semi-protection would work.--Danski454 (talk) 15:32, 23 August 2018 (UTC)
 * Keep and semi-protect I agree with sending it to semi-protect. The "full article" is a stub comparable to the other News 18 regional stubs, so it could potentially become an article if reliably sourced and shown to have independent notability, but not by the IP editors who are attempting it now. AngusWOOF  ( bark  •  sniff ) 16:26, 23 August 2018 (UTC)
 * Keep and semi-protect. Deletion should not be used when other alternatives are available - indeed there would be nothing stopping the IPs recreating an article over the new redirect if this were deleted and recreated. Thryduulf (talk) 21:44, 23 August 2018 (UTC)
 * Keep and semi-protect per above. S/P for a period of more than 3 months.-- D Big X ray ᗙ  21:55, 27 August 2018 (UTC)

 * Canister filter → Filter (aquarium) (talk · links · [//en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Canister_filter&action=history history] · stats)     [ Closure:  ]

Many plausible targets, not just Filter (aquarium), such as Oil filter and others at Filter Widefox ; talk 10:43, 23 August 2018 (UTC)


 * Keep I've created a redirects here and hatnotes to Canister and Filter, both of which are redirect pages. Problem is that oil filter and filter#device do not have canister mentions. The aquarium one is the most consistent one that uses both words that I see in searches, but I do see "canister air filter" and "canister oil filter", filters that are shaped as canisters, and canisters that have some sort of filter in them. AngusWOOF  ( bark  •  sniff ) 16:23, 23 August 2018 (UTC)
 * I fixed the redirect so it goes to that section, but this is a WP:PRIMARYTOPIC type decision. That looks like it should be Filtration. I'm thoroughly unconvinced aquariums are the primary topic for a filter in a can (very general concept), although I concede there's use of the term. This is just a general filter topic. The exact usage in articles is somewhat secondary to that general consideration. Widefox ; talk 17:06, 23 August 2018 (UTC)
 * Yup, I added a couple of links to the filter (physical) primary topic at Filtration. So these subtopics like aquarium, oil, etc are now covered as examples. Better to redirect to that, as canister filters are general not just aquariums and there's no users of the redirect anyhow. Widefox ; talk 17:12, 23 August 2018 (UTC)
 * Maybe it can be converted into a short dab provided that the different variants get mentioned WP:DABMENTION. I'll add a definition. AngusWOOF  ( bark  •  sniff ) 17:16, 23 August 2018 (UTC)
 * Don't think a new dab is needed. The problem was with a very messed up dab Filter, in particular Filter is now clear that Filter (chemistry) is the main article (for instance Water filter points back to Filter (chemistry)/Filtration), and almost all the others in that section of the dab are subtopics. Cartridge or canister could be across many domains, it would be a bad dab. Widefox ; talk 21:37, 23 August 2018 (UTC)
 * I tidied up the test dab. There's canister filters in all sorts of places so the dab would just be a dict def type DABMENTION mess - we can just redirect to the filter (device) "primary" topic, rather than have entries in a bad dab for things like Filtered beer, TorqueFlite (ATF), Sulfur water, Cartridge (respirator) (where cartridge and canister seems to be used synonymously), Compressed air dryer (a "filter" by name only), Mercedes-Benz OM617 engine ("Canister style oil filter").

Technically can refer to any internet connection via a wireless network. Wi-Fi is just one of many standards that could be applicable, there is also Wireless Internet Protocol etc. -  C HAMPION  (talk) (contributions) (logs) 08:25, 23 August 2018 (UTC)


 * Comment - Wireless might work. — Godsy (TALK CONT ) 08:50, 23 August 2018 (UTC)
 * Support Goldenrod's redirect  ⠀TOMÁSTOMÁSTOMÁS ⠀ TALK⠀  13:13, 23 August 2018 (UTC)
 * Goldenrod is a color. I, on the other hand, go by Godsy . No worries though, just a copy and paste error (from one of my font colors) which happens to all of us from time to time . —  Godsy (TALK CONT ) 02:51, 24 August 2018 (UTC)

 * Thud (media company) → Elon Musk (talk · links · [//en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Thud_(media_company)&action=history history] · stats)     [ Closure:  ]

No Thud subsection on page, potentially irrelevant topic. Propose delete.  ⠀TOMÁSTOMÁSTOMÁS ⠀ TALK⠀  01:55, 23 August 2018 (UTC)


 * Seems to be related to the hiring of former The Onion writers for a new media company It's not mentioned at Musk's page, also there's a Thud Media in Cardiff  that it could be confused with.  AngusWOOF  ( bark  •  sniff ) 14:53, 23 August 2018 (UTC)


 * Delete: not mentioned in the target, so any reader who searches for this (or arrives at it via the Thud disambiguation page) isn't taken to the information they're looking for. There's been some coverage in reliable sources (Gizmodo, The Verge, Fortune), though there hasn't been any significant coverage since March and most of the coverage leaves open the possibility that Musk's tweets were taking the piss. As such, I don't think there's any reason to mention this in the Musk article or to expect it to be mentioned there, and thus no reason not to delete the redirect. – Arms &amp; Hearts (talk)
