 * The result of the discussion was keep and hatnote  . Opinions are very evenly split between keeping it and retargeting it to the disambiguation page. There are strong and reasonable arguments in both directions, and it does seem to generally come down to a matter of opinion as to (a) how obvious the punctuation mark is, and (b) how obviously this is the primary topic, given that punctuation mark. Leaving it at its current target but adding a hatnote to the disambiguation page, which has been suggested by multiple participants, seems to be the best way of splitting the difference here. ~  mazca  talk 13:38, 8 January 2021 (UTC)

Not sure why this would be a likely search term for the current target, delete unless a justification can be provided. signed,Rosguill talk 18:29, 16 December 2020 (UTC)  Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Don't delete . If you look at the illustration in the article, this is exactly how it was shown on the magazine cover so it's not an implausible search term for the current target. The question is whether it is also a plausible search term for other topics, and if so whether this is primary. I don't immediately know the answers to those questions, but whatever they are the correct course of action is either keeping or retargetting (to a different article or to the dab page). Thryduulf (talk) 21:00, 16 December 2020 (UTC)
 * Keep. I've looked at every entry with an individual article at You (disambiguation) and exactly zero other entries are stylised with a full stop, meaning that this is almost certainly the only entry for which this is a likely search term. A link to the disambiguation page in a hatnote will resolve things for the very small number of people who want something else. Thryduulf (talk) 17:39, 17 December 2020 (UTC)
 * Retarget to You (disambiguation) as the punctuation is not so clear as to make it implausible that the searcher was looking for something else. Second choice is putting a hatnote at You (Time Person of the Year). — Bilorv ( talk ) 01:10, 17 December 2020 (UTC)
 * Keep. Personally speaking, seeing "You." with the period instantly made me think of the infamous Time cover. Unless there's evidence of anything else at You (disambiguation) notably using the period, I think this is a good example of small details distinguishing between topics. -- Tavix ( talk ) 03:07, 17 December 2020 (UTC)
 * Retarget to dab per Bilorv. -- 67.70.26.89 (talk) 06:06, 17 December 2020 (UTC)
 * Retarget per Bilorv. ~ HAL  333  23:20, 18 December 2020 (UTC)
 * Keep. There's a good case to consider the current target as WP:PRIMARYTOPIC for "You.". It's difficult to determine—as primary topics often are—complicated by the fact that search engines often ignore the full stop. Having said keep, I think a hatnote such as would be useful.

 * Delete The above discussion makes it very clear that there is WP:NOPRIMARYTOPIC for this redirect, and so it should be deleted. UnitedStatesian (talk) 21:18, 23 December 2020 (UTC)
 * If there is a primary topic (which the evidence shows there is) then it should be kept, if there is no primary topic then it should target the disambiguation page. There is no scenario here in which deletion is the right answer. Thryduulf (talk) 00:28, 24 December 2020 (UTC)
 * I disagree. Having non-primary punctuation variants such as this targeting their disambiguation pages would become WP:COSTLY. UnitedStatesian (talk) 16:07, 24 December 2020 (UTC)
 * WP:COSTLY gets things wrong far more often than it gets things right, and this is not an exception. Given the prominent usage on the Time magazine cover, people will use this search term and redirects from common search terms where there is a clearly relevant article or disambiguation page should only be deleted when there is a desire for a separate article on the topic. The maintenance burden of a redirect is tiny at the best of times (and mostly done by a bot in any case) and is far, far outweighed by the benefit to our readers over being invited to search and then taken to search results that might or might not list the article they were looking for.

I would recommed that this redirect be deleted. This is a technical redirect (R from sort name). The correct name of the target article is Bartholomew Sikes, so this redirect is redundant. A new technical redirect can be created if necessary. Tevildo (talk) 22:25, 30 December 2020 (UTC)

Seems like a highly unlikely way to try to search for the target, I think that deletion is appropriate here. signed,Rosguill talk 17:47, 30 December 2020 (UTC)
 * They can presumably be retargeted to English auxiliaries and contractions, but I really don't like the idea of having redirects for such a term – one among many – that's merely listed there. We shouldn't really try to duplicate an English dictionary here. Isnt, however, can be repointed to the target of ISNT. – Uanfala (talk) 18:04, 30 December 2020 (UTC)


 * Delete Isn't per nom, Retarget Isnt to ISNT per Uanfala. Mdewman6 (talk) 01:40, 31 December 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete both per nom. I didn't realize ISNT was itself a redirect, so no need to have a redirect from other capitalization that is potentially ambiguous anyway. Mdewman6 (talk) 01:44, 31 December 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete both per nom, this is trying too hard to be a dictionary. I don't agree with retargeting Isnt to ISNT's target (Illinois Soil Nitrogen Test) - Isnt is a common misspelling of a common English contraction, albeit one we don't have a good article target for, and having it as a suggested search result for as obscure a target as that seems to be far more likely to confuse than help readers. ~ mazca  talk 13:31, 8 January 2021 (UTC)
 * Retarget to English auxiliaries and contractions, where we have content on the term. While it's true we are not a dictionary, it is helpful to have a redirect from a common word where we have encyclopedic content on the word. I'll note there are several other similar redirects to the same target that can be moved over where appropriate. -- Tavix ( talk ) 18:13, 11 January 2021 (UTC)

Delete 1. The present redirect is very much not obvious. 2.

We could of course redirect to Template:Arabic language, but I think that simply deleting this redirect will be the easier change. 3.

It doesn't seem like a good precedent to encourage redirects that need disambiguators, (basketball), of less popular nicknames. Disambiguators are fine for WP:COMMONNAMEs, but LBJ is not his common name. There is already an entry at LBJ (disambiguation) for LeBron James. Recommend deleting the redirect. —Bagumba (talk) 12:02, 15 December 2020 (UTC)


 * Keep it is serving its purpose, and as you indicate, is a correct nickname, it unambiguously shows the LBJ from basketball to its target article -- 67.70.26.89 (talk) 06:00, 17 December 2020 (UTC)
 * That would basically invite Trump (U.S. President) (see Trump (disambiguation)), The Donald (U.S. President) (The Donald (disambiguation), The Don (U.S. President) (The Don (disambiguation)), Agent Orange (U.S. President) (Agent Orange (disambiguation)) and the like. We want similar churned ad nauseam?—Bagumba (talk) 06:33, 17 December 2020 (UTC)
 * No, it's not a partial name match, unlike "(The) Donald (Trump)" or "(Donald) Trump". Only "Agent Orange" out of those you mentioned would be similar to this case. Also, just because it already exists does not mean we need to encourage creation of more, just not deletion of what's already there. (which is also something that is mentioned in other RfD discussions). And of what you mention, "The Donald" in some form, probably should exist as a redirect, considering it is a common nickname of DJT. And Trump (politician) already exists -- 67.70.26.89 (talk) 02:47, 18 December 2020 (UTC)

 * Comment The same creator also created redirect Kobe (basketball player), which redirects to Kobe Bryant. The redirect is also ambiguous, requiring a redirect hatnote that clutters the page so that it can also point to another basketball player Kobe Paras. I still maintain that the problem, as with LBJ (basketball player), is the creation of disambiguated redirects of non-WP:COMMONNAMEs.—Bagumba (talk) 05:51, 22 December 2020 (UTC)

 * Delete, unlikely search term. By the off chance that someone looks for James and types LBJ, they can go to a disambiguation page, since it's highly unlikely they will type (basketball player) after LBJ. Geschichte (talk) 19:51, 22 December 2020 (UTC)
 * Keep this is accurate, plausible and harmless so there is no reason to delete it. If I heard someone talking about a basketball player called LBJ it is quite likely that I'd use this redirect to find the target as I wouldn't have a clue what LBJ stood for, I know they wont be the primary topic for LBJ and I expect the disambiguation page to be pretty long.

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

I can't find any evidence suggesting that this is an alternative name or spelling, delete unless a justification can be provided. signed,Rosguill talk 17:24, 22 December 2020 (UTC)


 * It's linked to from a book on Wikisource that uses that medieval spelling for it. So it was an alternative spelling at one point - and it would be nice to keep so people like me don't need to invest effort into figuring out who the heck the medieval author is referencing :) Peace.salam.shalom (talk) 00:20, 23 December 2020 (UTC)

 * Weak keep The same work on Wikisource (The Book of the Knight of the Tower) is the only thing I found on a Google Books search too. But absent other uses, I'm pretty sympathetic to the experience of coming across archaic forms of proper names and trying to make sense of them. Might be nice to incorporate this into the article to avoid a R without mention, though. --BDD (talk) 16:14, 6 January 2021 (UTC)
