 * 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 keep  . If the band article is deleted so will this, if not then the redirect will be of some use for the reasons elucidated below.  The Blade of the Northern Lights ( 話して下さい ) 21:57, 3 April 2018 (UTC)


 * Pete Cortese → Overcast (band) (talk · links · [//en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Pete_Cortese&action=history history] · stats)     [ Closure:  ]

I previously prodded this article and it was deleted, and I stated that the subject did not have a suitable target because he was part of Overcast (a questionably notable band who we can't even confirm is active, ignoring the fact that it has a few bluelinked band members) and an early member of Killswitch Engage when they were not yet notable. Unless Overcast is deleted some point down the line, there's not a suitable redirect target for this.  danny music editor  Speak up! 21:26, 27 March 2018 (UTC)


 * Keep. The redirect is reasonable as band members should redirect to the band they're most recognized with. The deletion of Overcast will automatically get this redirect deleted so while the band's article is still active, Pete Cortese redirecting to it shouldn't be an issue. King And God 13:19, 28 March 2018 (UTC)
 * Keep - I'm not sure, but the band itself appears to be notable. As it stands, the redirect seems appropriate enough as well. CoffeeWithMarkets (talk) 16:57, 28 March 2018 (UTC)
 * It looks like the band is up for AFD. Articles for deletion/Overcast (band) AngusWOOF  ( bark  •  sniff ) 03:15, 29 March 2018 (UTC)

 * Template:03 → Template:3 (talk · links · [//en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Template:03&action=history history] · stats)     [ Closure:  ]

This was the result of a reverted page move of Template:Leeds Carnegie squad to a name that appears to be meaningless. That template was redirected to Template:Yorkshire Carnegie squad, and this was redirected to Template:3. Template:3 is an error message, not a template that is intended to be used; it's purpose is to detect errors in unnamed parameters, such as {{{3|}} which should be. This redirect isn't useful as "03" is not a valid unnamed parameter - it would be a named parameter with a meaningless name. Peter James (talk) 20:52, 27 March 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete as housekeeping. The history on the template shows that 03 was a temporary name for move purposes. AngusWOOF  ( bark  •  sniff ) 20:07, 28 March 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete as per AngusWOOF. Nick Moyes (talk) 23:17, 28 March 2018 (UTC)

 * Template:04 → Template:Yorkshire Carnegie squad (talk · links · [//en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Template:04&action=history history] · stats)     [ Closure:  ]

The template was moved to this name but has now been moved back; "04" appears to be a meaningless name. Peter James (talk) 20:52, 27 March 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete as housekeeping. The history on the template shows that 04 was used as a temporary name during a move. AngusWOOF  ( bark  •  sniff ) 20:07, 28 March 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete as per AngusWOOF. Nick Moyes (talk) 23:18, 28 March 2018 (UTC)

 * The result of the discussion was retarget  to Polar opposite (disambiguation). Any discussion of diametrically opposed is best suited for a separate RfD.  The Blade of the Northern Lights ( 話して下さい ) 22:00, 3 April 2018 (UTC)


 * Polar opposite → Antipodal point (talk · links · [//en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Polar_opposite&action=history history] · stats)     [ Closure:  ]

Retarget to the Wiktionary definition. Not mentioned in and not relevant for the target article. The Wiktionary definition is the only thing relevant about this term. ToThAc (talk) 16:17, 27 March 2018 (UTC)


 * Retarget to Polarization which has a bunch of possibilities as to what someone can call a polar opposite. AngusWOOF  ( bark  •  sniff ) 17:03, 27 March 2018 (UTC) updated 14:06, 29 March 2018 (UTC)
 * Struck this option. See later note. AngusWOOF  ( bark  •  sniff ) 16:06, 29 March 2018 (UTC)


 * Retarget per AngusWOOF - Would be the most beneficial to our readers. – Davey 2010 Talk 19:31, 27 March 2018 (UTC)
 * Keep in light of disam being created, Makes sense to keep now really. – Davey 2010 Talk 16:25, 29 March 2018 (UTC)


 * Retarget per AngusWOOF. Seems to be the most useful target -- Lenticel ( talk ) 01:05, 28 March 2018 (UTC)
 * If polar opposite means "the complete opposite, opposite in every way" according to Wiktionary, then shouldn't it redirect to Opposite? How is polar opposite related to polarization? King And God 13:26, 28 March 2018 (UTC)
 * See the "In the social sciences" section of Polarization for the cases where people say "he's my polar opposite", implying some extremeness. AngusWOOF  ( bark  •  sniff ) 17:36, 28 March 2018 (UTC)


 * Retarget to Polar Opposite. Let's get real for a moment: the phrase 'Polar opposite' is simply an idiom - a figure of speech - to indicate two utterly and completely opposed positions or things that are conspicuously different in all important respects.  I cannot see the logic of a redirect to Polarization simply so the user can be left to flounder for themselves amongst a host of technical or social science pages. I'd rather keep it pointing exactly where it is at present if that were the possible outcome. Nick Moyes (talk) 23:41, 28 March 2018 (UTC)
 * The multiple incoming links for Polar opposite are mainly for the figure of speech and not the band. So should it be a hatnote to polarization? AngusWOOF  ( bark  •  sniff ) 03:20, 29 March 2018 (UTC)
 * You make a good point about a hatnote being useful, though I remain unconvinced that anyone searching for that term would ever envisage arriving at the Polarization DAB page. Can a hatnote legitimately contain a cross-wiki link? If so, it really ought to point here. Nick Moyes (talk) 09:13, 29 March 2018 (UTC)


 * Keep and create dab Polar opposite as it stands fits the original definition of antipodal point. The recent usages are essentially based on that, and can be expressed in a dab. Polar Opposite points to Sick Puppies album as above. There's another album called Polar Opposites by Junior Pantherz. "Polar Opposites" is an episode name for The Wild Thornberrys and an episode of Tanked. Then the wiktionary can be added and see alsos to opposite and polarization. AngusWOOF  ( bark  •  sniff ) 14:14, 29 March 2018 (UTC)
 * I've created Polar opposite (disambiguation). Note diametrically opposed also goes to antipodal point. AngusWOOF  ( bark  •  sniff ) 14:26, 29 March 2018 (UTC)

 * The result of the discussion was retarget  to Canadian Girls in Training.  The Blade of the Northern Lights ( 話して下さい ) 21:54, 3 April 2018 (UTC)


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

Not in target article (was formerly, but without source or context), this is just any GUI and not notable for that article unless independently notable (which it currently is not either). Lordtobi ( &#9993; ) 10:12, 20 March 2018 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Weak retarget to Canadian Girls in Training which is where CGIT goes. AngusWOOF  ( bark  •  sniff ) 16:51, 20 March 2018 (UTC)

Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, The SandDoctor  Talk 05:27, 27 March 2018 (UTC)
 * Weak retarget per AngusWOOF. I see no better target at this point. ToThAc (talk) 17:10, 27 March 2018 (UTC)
 * Very Weak retarget per above - As CGIT exists this may aswell be redirected with it .... – Davey 2010 Talk 19:20, 27 March 2018 (UTC)

Fictional school, no reason to have a draft redirect. Alexis Jazz (talk) 04:35, 27 March 2018 (UTC)


 * Delete Mistakenly moved from userspace to draft space, then moved back within hours. Maybe WP:CSD housekeeping. 59.149.124.29 (talk) 09:27, 27 March 2018 (UTC)


 * Delete as housekeeping. AngusWOOF  ( bark  •  sniff ) 17:08, 27 March 2018 (UTC)
 * Speedy - G6 - Tagged as such, I'm sure we have a specific CSD criterion for redirect moves but anyway tagged as such. – Davey 2010 Talk 19:29, 27 March 2018 (UTC)

 * Template:WP RFC → Template:rfc (talk · links · [//en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Template:WP_RFC&action=history history] · stats)     [ Closure:  ]

Redirects to rfc that don't begin with the letters "rfc" (case insensitive) don't work at all (see Template:requestforcomment) &#123;&#123;3x&#124;p&#125;&#125;ery (talk) 03:40, 27 March 2018 (UTC)


 * Keep - Plausible search term, No doubt many editors use this as a shortcut (even if they don't there's no harm keeping it.) – Davey 2010 Talk 19:26, 27 March 2018 (UTC)
 * Snow keep - This is a valid and perfectly reasonable redirect per our criteria for redirects (see WP:REDIR), so the only valid reason to delete it would be if it is in the way of something more important.
 * The nominators' explanation above is misleading as the redirect is fully functional. Regarding the other discussion linked to above, if a bot doesn't recognize the redirect, that's a bug in the bot that should be fixed. If the bot's author can't be bothered to fix the bot, it is the bot that must be ditched (however, it would be trivially easy to fix the bot, so there is even less reason to bend over towards a bot or its author). Bots exist to serve *us*, not the other way around.
