January 8
This is a list of redirects that have been proposed for deletion or other action on January 8, 2019.

Featured article candidates
 Closed discussion, see full discussion. Result was:
 * 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 retarget  to English Wikipedia. Most participants want this changed in some sense. While there was a numerical split between those who wanted it deleted and retargeted to mainspace, WP:ATD favors the latter, and with almost two months of discussion, there would seem to be little to be gained by relisting. It may be worth reassessing this as a mainspace redirect later on. --BDD (talk) 17:04, 24 January 2019 (UTC)


 * Featured article candidates → Wikipedia:Featured article candidates (talk · links · [//en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Featured_article_candidates&action=history history] · stats)     [ Closure:  ]

See WP:CNR. Redirects from mainspace to Project space are normally not desirable, and I don't see the value in keeping this particular one, which a reader (non-editor) would be unlikely to search. funplussmart (talk) 02:09, 27 November 2018 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Weak keep. By that same token, if it's such an unlikely search term, anyone who does search for it would logically be looking for the WP process. Regards, User:TheDragonFire300. (Contact me &#124; Contributions). This message was left at 03:03, 27 November 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete We have to set a pretty high bar for cross-namespace redirects, and this one does not reach it. UnitedStatesian (talk) 13:45, 6 December 2018 (UTC)

Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Deryck C. 11:59, 10 December 2018 (UTC)  Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus. Relisting comment: The proposed section discusses featured articles, but nothing about candidates or how articles achieve featured status. Since the section has cross-namespace redirects in it, is this acceptable?
 * Delete. This redirect could refer to some sort of specific featured articles list of some publication, etc., causing confusion. Steel1943  (talk) 16:39, 10 December 2018 (UTC)
 * Comment I was going to propose that it go to a section of Wikipedia covering internal ratings of article quality (as opposed to external ratings, e.g. the Nature Wikipedia-versus-Britannica study), but to my surprise I didn't find any such section. Looks like our only options are keeping or deleting.  Nyttend (talk) 23:44, 10 December 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete per Steel1943. This can refer to candidates for (almost) any of the subjects listed at Feature article. -- Tavix ( talk ) 15:32, 19 December 2018 (UTC)
 * Retarget to English Wikipedia, where featured articles are covered. That's the section linked on the dab page  noted above.  The other entries on the dab are broad categories, rather than this specific meaning.  The section header is complicated and misleading, so maybe that's why  didn't spot it at first glance, but we've got content on FAs in an article, so we should point this there. ~  Amory  (u • t • c) 20:43, 19 December 2018 (UTC)

 * Same. ~ Amory  (u • t • c) 16:38, 3 January 2019 (UTC)
 * Actually,, would you be willing to withdraw your additions? I don't think they should be placed together, especially after weeks of being listed and discussed alone.  If done early in the nomination, it might make sense, but late in the game just confuses things. ~  Amory  (u • t • c) 17:06, 4 January 2019 (UTC)

 * A little confused: You want to keep the current target, but it's already targeting article space. ~ Amory  (u • t • c) 18:41, 19 January 2019 (UTC)

 * Errr... yes, thanks Tav. Dunno what the hell I wrote or why, but I meant to say that the redirect is in mainspace, so I don't understand why it would be a problem to retarget somewhere in mainspace.  I wouldn't assume someone is necessarily looking for a project page, but regardless, the page/section I suggested above contains a relevant link. ~  Amory  (u • t • c) 02:03, 23 January 2019 (UTC)

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

Change redirect target to Christians. The main meaning of "Christian identity" is not the Christian Identity movement, as a Google Books or Google Scholar search will show. Srnec (talk) 18:09, 26 December 2018 (UTC)  Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Retarget per nom and principle of least astonishment. It would be unfortunate if a link to Christian identity took the unsuspecting reader to Christian Identity. Catrìona (talk) 19:04, 26 December 2018 (UTC)
 * Comment I don't think this is clear cut. On one hand, Christian (small-i) identity is certainly a thing that people talk/write about. However, I think it's probably the case that recently, use of the phrase is more likely to refer to the racist ideology, scholarly articles notwithstanding. Is that just recentism? A tough call. ErikHaugen (talk &#124; contribs) 18:47, 27 December 2018 (UTC)
 * How recently ? According to article, Christian Identity theories date from early 20th century. Place Clichy (talk) 23:15, 7 January 2019 (UTC)
 * Retarget per nom, or alt retarget to Christendom . The fringe racist ideology is, well, fringe, and does not deserve to be treated as primary topic. Place Clichy (talk) 23:15, 7 January 2019 (UTC)
 * Change vote to Keep and place hatnote to Christians or Christendom per opinions below. Better to have a hatnote pointing from this article than to it. An alternative solution may be to rename article to Christian Identity (ideology). Place Clichy (talk) 20:47, 18 January 2019 (UTC)
 * Comment. The problem I see with retargeting to Christians is that there would then need to be a hatnote at Christians to Christian Identity, which will probably bring more attention to that article then this redirect would. -- Tavix ( talk ) 19:51, 8 January 2019 (UTC)

Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Steel1943  (talk) 22:56, 8 January 2019 (UTC)
 * good point. Would you support the alternative retargeting to Christendom which I suggested? Place Clichy (talk) 15:16, 14 January 2019 (UTC)
 * Keep and add hatnote at Christian Identity. Having a hatnote pointing to Christian Identity from a less fringe page (which would be necessitated by all of the retargettings) seems less beneficial than keeping this redirect. —Kusma (t·c) 17:36, 14 January 2019 (UTC)

Unlikely misspelling of Dam Yisrael Noter, the full Hebrew name of Nakam Catrìona (talk) 03:52, 26 December 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete; this is nonsense. "Dam...Noter" and "Dahn Nokeam" are radically different in English, as are דםנתר and דהןנכאמ in Hebrew.  (I can't promise that this is the right transliteration, but it's at least approximate.)  Hebrew's similarly shaped letters, e.g. כ and ב (Kaph and Beth) sometimes get confused, especially in ancient manuscripts (which obviously these aren't), but you're not going to get these items confused.  It's not even the same number of letters, seven versus five, if I did the transliteration correctly.  Nyttend (talk) 04:02, 26 December 2018 (UTC)
 * This redirect was created as a result of "Dahn Y'Israel Nokeam / Avenging Israel's Blood" appearing on User:Skysmith's "Missing topics about Judaism" list in September 2013 (version of page at that date). If, as seems from the above, that may have been the product of bad OCR, the most appropriate thing might be to keep the redirect, but flag it redirect from misspelling. Jheald (talk) 18:56, 26 December 2018 (UTC)
 * I don't think that makes sense, because it is an unlikely misseplling and doesn't appear on the current version of the list. It's getting no views and as pointed out above, is nonsense Hebrew. All 6 google hits are probably copied from Wikipedia. Catrìona (talk) 18:59, 26 December 2018 (UTC)
 * It doesn't appear on the current version of the list because the list is a list of missing terms, and the term is no longer missing. Whether it's nonsense Hebrew or not is irrelevant - the OCR misidentification occurred in English ("m" <--> "hn", etc). Yes, it's an unlikely misspelling for a human, but evidently it's an OCR mis-read that's been made at least once by a machine, and is now loose in the wild.  Redirects are cheap, so I see no particular harm in keeping it. Jheald (talk) 19:28, 26 December 2018 (UTC)
 * : I do not remember any more where I got that but I have seen different transliterations before (I have used several dictionaries and encyclopedias to create the Missing Topics pages) and I have often turned them into redirects since I don't know what version someone might be trying to use to find information. I do remove the blue links from the lists periodically and I have no doubt there may be more things like this. As far as I am concerned, I would support the "redirect from misspelling" version myself - Skysmith (talk) 20:27, 26 December 2018 (UTC)
 * This is too implausible. Spelling errors for English?  Yes, keep those if they're plausible.  Spelling errors for foreign languages in their own scripts, e.g. ישדאל for ישראל (see my comment about similarly shaped letters) are perhaps okay.  Spelling errors for foreign languages in transliteration?  Probably too unlikely to keep.  OCR-caused spelling errors of foreign languages in transliteration?  That's simply too many layers.  There's always a risk that a redirect for a spelling error in another language will be seen by someone as the correct spelling (or an alternate spelling), and when the spelling error is a machine error that humans are quite unlikely to make, the risk of confusing humans is greater than the benefit of serving the very small population who's relying on an OCR-generated list.

Speculative philosophy

 * The result of the discussion was delete  . There's consensus that speculative philosophy is not the same as Continental philosophy, and a subject which we should address directly. --BDD (talk) 16:52, 24 January 2019 (UTC)


 * Speculative philosophy → Continental philosophy (talk · links · [//en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Speculative_philosophy&action=history history] · stats)     [ Closure:  ]
 * Speculative Philosophy → Continental philosophy (talk · links · [//en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Speculative_Philosophy&action=history history] · stats)     [ Closure:  ]

I can't see why speculative philosophy should be redirected to continental philosophy. It is true that post-Kantian continental philosophy tends to be more non-empirical than analytic philosophy, but this has always been true of mainland European philosophy, e.g. with the rationalists Descartes, Spinoza and Leibniz (against the British empiricists Locke, Berkeley and Hume), who came before "continental philosophy" in the post-Kantian sense (which is what the continental philosophy article is focusing on; as the article states, 'The history of continental philosophy (taken in its narrower sense) is usually thought to begin with German idealism'). For as long as Anglo-Saxon philosophy has existed, it has tended to be more empirical than mainland European philosophy. Post-Kantian continental philosophy is distinguished both from Anglo-Saxon (including analytic) philosophy and from pre-Kantian mainland European philosophy by things other than being speculative, most notably by its overwhelming adherence to Kant's "Copernican revolution" and its overwhelming rejection of realism. (Admittedly I'm painting in broad brush strokes here.)

Looking at the history of Speculative philosophy, it seems somebody tried to delete it by blanking it in 2010, saying 'del bad redirect', but the page was then changed back by someone saying 'Please do not blank redirects. To delete them, list them at WP:RFD but do not just blank pages.'.

A few pages link to Speculative philosophy - see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:WhatLinksHere/Speculative_philosophy. But I'd be happy to go through those pages and edit them to remove the links and whatnot, and moreover, I had a look at some of the pages and some of the pages seem to illustrate precisely why "speculative philosophy" and "continental philosophy" cannot be taken as synonymous. For example, from Islamic-Jewish relations:

'The 12th century saw the apotheosis of pure philosophy. This supreme exaltation of philosophy was due, in great measure, to Ghazali (1058–1111) among the Arabs, and to Judah ha-Levi (1140) among the Jews. Like Ghazali, Judah ha-Levi took upon himself to free religion from the shackles of speculative philosophy, and to this end wrote the Kuzari, in which he sought to discredit all schools of philosophy alike.'

In this, the phrase 'speculative philosophy' is linked to the page Speculative philosophy.

Another example, from Isaac Watts:

'Throughout Logic, Watts revealed his high conception of logic by stressing the practical side of logic, rather than the speculative side.'

In this, the word 'speculative' is linked to the page Speculative philosophy.

A final example, from Christopher Jacob Boström:

'According to the different kinds of personal beings that are known to us, theoretical philosophy is further divided into speculative theology, speculative ethnology and speculative anthropology; practical philosophy into philosophy of religion, philosophy of law and ethics, corresponding to the terms of the division of theoretical philosophy'

In this, the first occurrence of the word 'speculative' is linked to the page Speculative philosophy.

I think this page should be deleted rather than re-targeted or turned into an article - I can't think of anything better to re-target it to (looking at its history, it was once targeted to Sublation but this was changed back) and I don't think it deserves an article of its own any more than, say, "Abstract philosophy". Matthew Fennell (talk) 17:30, 25 December 2018 (UTC)
 * I strongly disagree with a deletion. The term is found in the wiktionary and for that matter in Merriam-Webster and gets 360,000 Google hits. There is a Journal of Speculative Philosophy (not the first by that name, I might add), and the term is commonly used in contrast to analytic philosophy.
 * I agree that the term is broader than Continental philosophy. If anything, I would put an article here that dealt with the subject more broadly and included a one-paragraph summary and link to Continental philosophy. I think complete elimination is exactly the wrong direction to go. - Jmabel &#124; Talk 17:52, 25 December 2018 (UTC)
 * For what it's worth, I'm the one who originally created that as a redirect, but that was in 2004, when Wikipedia was much less extensive. - Jmabel &#124; Talk 17:56, 25 December 2018 (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. Relisting comment: Speculative Philosophy also exists, which I will bundle shortly.
 * I apologize to have to ask this, considering that I got hit with a bit of a WP:TLDR issue while reading this since the target subject is not in my realm of expertise: Are you claiming that the redirect should be deleted per WP:REDLINK as a subject separate of the target? (Disregarding the subject of the redirect's potentially notability as a stand-alone article?) Steel1943  (talk) 17:29, 29 December 2018 (UTC)
 * As I said Steel1943, 'I think this page should be deleted rather than re-targeted or turned into an article - I can't think of anything better to re-target it to (looking at its history, it was once targeted to Sublation but this was changed back) and I don't think it deserves an article of its own any more than, say, "Abstract philosophy".' I don't really understand what is meant by 'Are you claiming that the redirect should be deleted per WP:REDLINK as a subject separate of the target? (Disregarding the subject of the redirect's potentially notability as a stand-alone article?)'. I don't have a good enough understanding of the technicalities of Wikipedia policies to really understand what you mean I'm afraid. Matthew Fennell (talk) 02:55, 1 January 2019 (UTC)
 * See the link. In a nutshell, "WP:REDLINK" means that whatever is at the title should be deleted to encourage the creation of an article at that title. Steel1943  (talk) 22:26, 4 January 2019 (UTC)

 * The result of the discussion was move  to Semi-protection/July 2005 proposal without leaving a redirect.

Apparently, this page was redirected in 2011 as a result of Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/Wikipedia:WikiProject Semiprotect. However, as it stands, the redirect does not make sense since the target is not a WikiProject about semi-protection. Steel1943 (talk) 18:00, 8 January 2019 (UTC)
 * Move the history somewhere. Rather than a WikiProject this was actually more of an attempt to workshop a proposal for semi-protection, possibly the earliest such proposal - maybe Semi-protection/July 2005 proposal would be a good place to keep it (the month would be needed as Semi-protection policy began as a proposal in November 2005, and the feature arrived in December 2005).

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

Propose retargetting to Daniel Farke. It is perfectly acceptable to redirect Farke to the person, as people will search for him by surname, as that is how football players are usually mentioned. Daniel Farke gets 600 views a day, whereas the place is obscure, and only gets 2 views a day, of which only 4 this month have been from Farke redirect. As such, I believe that Daniel Farke is the primary topic for the Farke redirect, and hatnote from Daniel Farke to Farkë would be sufficient <b style="color:#CCCC00">Joseph</b><b style="color:#00FF00">2302</b> (talk) 01:36, 28 December 2018 (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.
 * Retarget to Daniel Farke per nom with a hatnote per WP:PRIMARYREDIRECT. Shhhnotsoloud (talk) 08:43, 28 December 2018 (UTC)
 * Weak disambiguate. We can't know how many of the readers searching for "Farke" are looking for the manager or the village, but given that there are so few of them anyway (four per month), I don't think we're likely to be able to gather meaningful usage data and I don't think there's going to be any material difference either way. But if we're to judge based on "fundamental considerations", I don't think there's a reason to favour an R from surname (even from a popular target) over an R without diacritics. – Uanfala (talk) 13:53, 31 December 2018 (UTC)
