WP:FORRED. The target article's subject does not have affinity to the Greek language. Steel1943 (talk) 20:09, 17 May 2018 (UTC)
 * keep The target article's subject does very much have affinity to the Greek language. It's even in the first sentence:  "Apostasy (/əˈpɒstəsi/; Greek: ἀποστασία apostasia, "a defection or revolt") is the formal disaffiliation from, or abandonment or renunciation of a religion by a person."  But it's also all over the article, ἀποστασία is in the new testament.  It's in the hebrew bible (but written in hebrew מרד).  It's even in the categories.  ~a (user • talk • contribs) 22:36, 17 May 2018 (UTC)

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

This redirect as it is set up seems confusing and misleading. The target article seems to be about a subject where people are in a state where they renounce their former religion; the article is not about either something that was previously a religion or was a religion that turned into something not a religion, or a religion that was dissolved, etc. Steel1943  (talk) 20:08, 17 May 2018 (UTC)
 * Comment - This seems like something that somebody would search for, but it seems like it could be equally divided in between the three meanings of 'people who left their religion', 'areas/countries/other-non-living-entities that lost interest in a religion', and 'religions that no longer essentially exist'. Maybe a disambiguation page should be created? CoffeeWithMarkets (talk) 22:18, 17 May 2018 (UTC)
 * I can't find an alternative target; there is not even a category of defunct religions or religious groups. There is Category:Religion in ancient history but not all of the contents there are "former". So, I can't see any scope to make a disambiguation page. That leaves Delete, since the current targeting is not WP:NPOV. – Fayenatic  L ondon 09:55, 18 May 2018 (UTC)

 * Former county → Shires of Scotland (talk · links · [//en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Former_county&action=history history] · stats)     [ Closure:  ]

Due to lack of explanation of the redirect at the target, this redirect seems like a WP:SURPRISE. Steel1943 (talk) 20:04, 17 May 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete: might cause confusion. There are plenty of "former counties" in England too, among other places. Shhhnotsoloud (talk) 06:12, 18 May 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete as hopelessly ambiguous, see Category:Former counties. I found this redirect in use at Maggieknockater and a sandbox, and bypassed these links. – Fayenatic  L ondon 10:08, 18 May 2018 (UTC)
 * Retarget to the list I've started at Lists of former counties, which includes the current target and a see also to the category. Thryduulf (talk) 15:36, 18 May 2018 (UTC)
 * Retarget to Lists of former counties (as R from list topic? do we use that for lists of lists?) per Thryduulf. 59.149.124.29 (talk) 15:11, 24 May 2018 (UTC)

 * Town Sports → Town Sports International Holdings (talk · links · [//en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Town_Sports&action=history history] · stats)     [ Closure:  ]

this may be a too general a term to link to one article. Lawson Tama Stadium was known as the "Town Sports ground". "Frome Town Sports" is a team in Mid-Somerset Football League. Grimsby Town F.C. was known as "Grimsby Town Sports" Dom from Paris (talk) 15:02, 17 May 2018 (UTC)


 * Are you suggesting the page be disambiguated? FloridaArmy (talk) 15:04, 17 May 2018 (UTC)
 * Keep. The sports teams are partial title matches and if necessary the stadium can be referred to in a hatnote. Shhhnotsoloud (talk) 06:18, 18 May 2018 (UTC)
 * Keep as one of the names of the company investor FAQ "Does Town Sports have publicly traded common stock?" A dab page can be created, but the business seems to be primary topic. AngusWOOF  ( bark  •  sniff ) 19:04, 18 May 2018 (UTC)

None of these terms are mentioned in the target article. Thus, the connection between the redirects and the target is unclear. Steel1943 (talk) 14:44, 17 May 2018 (UTC)


 * Comment runner is mentioned, and there seems to be an article on the runner bean Phaseolus coccineus. Perhaps this can be solved by adding a statement about what a half-runner bean is (a mix of bush and pole types)  AngusWOOF  ( bark  •  sniff ) 23:42, 17 May 2018 (UTC)
 * I've added a brief section on half-runners to the article. AngusWOOF  ( bark  •  sniff ) 19:15, 24 May 2018 (UTC)

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

Unnecessary redirect. Obviously, every page on Wikipedia is going to contain "info". ZXCVBNM (TALK) 08:11, 17 May 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete - The fact that its capitalized as "Info" makes this seem even more inappropriate. I agree. CoffeeWithMarkets (talk) 22:09, 17 May 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete per nom. AngusWOOF  ( bark  •  sniff ) 23:41, 17 May 2018 (UTC)

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

Crufty redirects that aren't relevant or mentioned in article. ZXCVBNM (TALK) 08:09, 17 May 2018 (UTC)


 * Delete as remnants of Ninja World article deletion/redirect. Someone looking for what symbols and colors are on the headbands would not find any useful information here. Perhaps there's a way to redirect them to the Naruto Wikia for external links? http://naruto.wikia.com/wiki/Forehead_Protector AngusWOOF  ( bark  •  sniff ) 23:40, 17 May 2018 (UTC)
 * Allowing soft redirects to Wikia would be the best thing in these situations, but they would require consensus in favour before being introduced. I can't immediately find any prior discussion of the idea, but this surprises me so there may be something I'm not finding. Thryduulf (talk) 15:41, 18 May 2018 (UTC)
 * It depends if the wikia meets WP:ELNO #12. If it's stable enough then it can be added as an external link. AngusWOOF  ( bark  •  sniff ) 19:02, 18 May 2018 (UTC)

Seems a little too WP:PRECISE to where the subject of the redirect is not in the target article. Steel1943 (talk) 04:01, 17 May 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete as nominated. there are plenty more where that came from, see Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Medicine/Dermatology_task_force/Missing_articles/Archive_1. – Fayenatic  L ondon 10:11, 18 May 2018 (UTC)
