Here's a few people that redirect to List of magic tricks without mention. Presumably they are creators of magic tricks (a cursory search seems to confirm this), but the target doesn't do anything to verify this. -- Tavix ( talk ) 23:16, 29 February 2020 (UTC)

I was not able to figure out whether this is a significant phrase related to the Spanish Inquisition. My search largely yielded results related to Coronation Street. -- Tavix ( talk ) 21:59, 29 February 2020 (UTC)

 * Delete per nom, Narky, as this is an WP:RLOTE deletion case. Doug Mehus T · C  16:23, 22 February 2020 (UTC)
 * Keep. I don't think it meets WP:R or WP:RFOR given its pageviews. Also, it seems to be Occitan rather than Portuguese.  J 947 &thinsp;(c) , at  19:42, 22 February 2020 (UTC)

 * (edit conflict) Weak keep: conceivable as a misspelling. However, I'd recommend deleting the actual Portuguese redirect Paquistão (+ Paquistao). – Uanfala (talk) 19:43, 22 February 2020 (UTC)

 * Yes, both WP:RFFL. Narky Blert (talk) 12:36, 23 February 2020 (UTC)
 * Yes, that's fine. I suspect the top one had the most usage? So, that one might be a "weak delete," but assuming the other two were all less, then I would say a straight "delete." Doug Mehus T · C  20:01, 23 February 2020 (UTC)

 * Delete all, no reason for any of these to be here, per WP:FORRED, and no English speaker is going to hear "Pakistan" and guess that it's spelled "Paquistan" (unless there are people out there pronouncing it "Pak-wi-stan"), so this isn't about helping users around likely errors.

 * <S>Retarget all and Latino Americans to Latin Americans per WP:FORRED. --Soumyabrata (talk • subpages) 07:31, 22 February 2020 (UTC)
 * FORRED does not apply as this is not a foreign language. Not sure if this is WP:ENGVAR, but Latino American is at least valid American English.—Bagumba (talk) 09:55, 22 February 2020 (UTC)
 * I concur with Bagumba here; Latino American(s) seems more likely to refer to Hispanic and Latino Americans. —Sangdeboeuf (talk) 10:28, 22 February 2020 (UTC)
 * Retarget Latinoamerican to Latin Americans per WP:FORRED. The lack of space suggests this is Spanish-language rather than English-language. I have improved the hatnotes on both Latin Americans and Hispanic and Latino Americans for clarity so this could go either way. Delete Latinoamericans as grammatically incorrect in both languages (the Spanish version should either be "latinoamericanas" or "latinoamericanos"). feminist (talk) 04:21, 29 February 2020 (UTC)
 * This being English Wikipedia, it's more likely the lack of space is a typo of the English term "Latino American", as opposed to Spanish users looking for the Spanish term on en.wp. In any event, the corect Spanish would be latinoamericano (male) or latinoamericana (female). As for the plural, "Latino Americans" is perfect (American) English. Per WP:RFD No. 2, misspellings (e.g. lack of space) are not deleted.—Bagumba (talk) 16:08, 29 February 2020 (UTC)

Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Steel1943  (talk) 20:00, 29 February 2020 (UTC)
 * Keep (as nominator). Bagumba has convinced me that these are plausible typos of Latino American and Latino Americans, respectively. These are definitely not Spanish constructions, so I don't think WP:FORRED applies. —Sangdeboeuf (talk) 20:59, 29 February 2020 (UTC)
 * Keep; good argument from Bagumba, and my hatnotes should assist readers adequately. feminist (talk) 04:32, 1 March 2020 (UTC)

 * The result of the discussion was retarget  to Atmospheric Research. This is as rough a consensus as we get, but a bare majority preferred the journal, there was no appetite for a TWODABS disambiguation page, and little hope that leaving this open will lead to a clearer consensus. --BDD (talk) 01:09, 9 March 2020 (UTC)


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

I think that this is a case of WP:R #10: anyone typing in "atmospheric research" is unlikely to just want our article about the atmosphere (an article that doesn't even mention the word "research"), but the topic is clearly notable (there's even an academic journal with exactly this name). Thus, I would suggest deletion to encourage article creation. signed,Rosguill talk 18:39, 14 February 2020 (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 atmospheric science. Narky Blert (talk) 19:11, 14 February 2020 (UTC)
 * Retarget to Atmospheric science. This topic is actually covered there, so an article created at this title (that is not about the journal) would largely be a duplicate. Glades12 (talk) 19:24, 14 February 2020 (UTC)
 * Also, I note that an article about the journal already exists at Atmospheric Research. Glades12 (talk) 20:50, 14 February 2020 (UTC)
 * Question I tend to concur with Rosguill here. In what context do the inlinks to atmospheric research apply? That is, are the referring articles talking about atmospheric research or science? That should give us our answer on whether retargeting or deleting per WP:R is best. Doug Mehus T · C  20:15, 14 February 2020 (UTC)

 * , really? I was leaning towards Atmospheric Research as a miscapitalization? I'm not sure we need to apply WP:DIFFCAPS here, since it's not mentioned in more than a tangential way, no? Doug Mehus T · C  13:07, 15 February 2020 (UTC)

 * Retarget to Atmospheric Research with R from miscapitalization; Weak retarget to Atmospheric science with R from related topic and R without mention. Closer can decide on the target. It's not mentioned in the latter, hence why it's weak, but it's related; or, Weak delete per nom to encourage article creation per WP:R, though this is very weak considering Glades12 only identified one inlink.

 * Retarget to with an appropriate hatnote.  J  947 &thinsp;(c) , at  01:42, 22 February 2020 (UTC)
 * Retarget to atmospheric science and add a hatnote to Atmospheric Research. DIFFCAPped redirect should redirect to the non-proper-noun topics or dab page if there is such, before going to the capped proper noun ones. -- 65.94.171.6 (talk) 06:16, 22 February 2020 (UTC)
 * The more I think about it, I'm increasingly more strongly opposed to the idea of retargeting to the broader atmospheric science chiefly because the topic of atmospheric research is not well explained there in that target. That's where I think DIFFCAPS makes sense—that is, where the target sufficiently, and relatively in-depth, covers the named topic. In this case, we don't have that, so it makes sense to retarget to the Atmospheric Research academic journal as an R from miscapitalization, which the plurality of participants currently supports, because, ultimately, the reader would be well informed by learning about that highly focused and highly related academic journal where, ultimately, they can connect with related inlinks and external links on how to look up a current or previous issue of the journal. Doug Mehus T · C  14:34, 22 February 2020 (UTC)
 * Do you consider it appropriate to add a hatnote for Atmospheric science in that case? We can't assume all readers would want to read about (or dig up issues of) a somewhat obscure journal, and science and research are very closely related, to the point where many would see them as the same thing. Glades12 (talk) 13:01, 23 February 2020 (UTC)
 * I have no objections to a hatnote to the related, broader topic of atmospheric science, absolutely. I would also support a hatnote to the journal at atmospheric science, if required. I'm pretty liberal with hatnotes...as long as they're broadly reasonable and don't take up, say, half the page, I'm fine. ;-) Doug Mehus T · C  18:05, 23 February 2020 (UTC)


 * Disambiguate between atmospheric science and Atmospheric Research. The votes here are quite evenly split between the two options and both are plausible targets. feminist (talk) 05:10, 29 February 2020 (UTC)
 * , WP:TWODABS applies, though. This is one of those cases where we could either close as "no consensus," then retarget to the academic journal boldly since consensus was against keeping it at the current target, or the closer could use their editorial discretion in a non-prejudicial supervote on deciding on the target—this is the only acceptable type of supervote. Doug Mehus T · C  15:52, 29 February 2020 (UTC)
 * If editors can't agree on one target, this means they can't agree on one singular WP:PTOPIC, in which case TWODABS doesn't apply and the title can become a disambiguation page. feminist (talk) 15:55, 29 February 2020 (UTC)
 * That's a good point. Though, I still think we could've closed this at one of the targets and, if it were disputed and ended up at RfD again a short time later, then we'd have to disambiguate per the above. However, I would support, somewhat weak-ishly, dabifying as Atmospheric research now and save this a potential extra trip to RfD—I say potential only because I'm not convinced early editors like would've opposed targeting to the academic journal.

 * <span id="Yeet (slang)">Yeet (slang) → Yeet (talk · links · [//en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Yeet_(slang)&action=history history] · stats)     [ Closure:  ]

I PRODded the original version of this for the reason "WP:NOTDICTIONARY". User:Dmehus declined the PROD and redirected it to Yeet, a disambiguation page. I see no value in the redirect since there is nothing there for a user who is looking for the word "yeet" in a context they already know is slang. Dmehus also suggested soft redirection to Wiktionary, but since the term is disambiguated here, I'm not sure I see the value in that either. Largoplazo (talk) 03:07, 29 February 2020 (UTC)
 * Your redirection makes no sense since there are no "slang" articles listed at the target. Please restore the article and either restore the PROD tag or nominate the page for WP:AFD. A WP:BLANKANDREDIRECT-ed article that goes to WP:RFD is improper for WP:ATT/WP:CWW reasons since the article's content (that was rather fresh) as an article is not traditionally taken into consideration for discussion. Thanks. Steel1943  (talk) 03:12, 29 February 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete. None of the entries on the disambiguation page refer to the slang form of yeet, and it frankly isn't necessary to have as a redirect either to Wikipedia or to Wiktionary. Will be posting my opinion here as long as this RfD is still up. Utopes (talk / cont) 03:18, 29 February 2020 (UTC)
 * Barring this redirect getting turned back into an article ... Delete per nom. Steel1943  (talk) 04:32, 29 February 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete the underlying article is a WP:NOTDIC page, and yeet already covers the slang term. The disambiguation page at yeet already contains a link to Wiktionary. -- 65.94.171.6 (talk) 05:31, 29 February 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete per nom, as an implausible redirect because of the disambiguation qualifier. In response to Steel1943's comment, I reached out to  to ensure that dePRODding and redirecting to yeet was the correct way to handle this. I even said that RfD should be the correct venue. PROD shouldn't be used to enforce WP:NOTDICTIONARY; if there's no other targets on English Wikipedia, a soft redirect to Wiktionary should be used. In this case, there was a Wiktionary link at yeet, so I retargeted there, and suggested nominating it for RfD. Doug Mehus  T · C  14:50, 29 February 2020 (UTC)
 * There is no entry for "Yeet (slang)" at Wiktionary, and Yeet already has the Wiktionary link, so there's no reason for this title to continue to exist as a soft redirect to Wiktionary. I think I saw you make that observation somewhere else, maybe to Utopes? But it's always a bad idea to redirect to another page because it contains a link that leads yet somewhere else. We're supposed to be making things easier for readers, not create puzzles for them. Not having Yeet (slang) at all is easier for them than having it and then redirecting them to a page that won't help them unless they think to look at all the links on it. Also, under the guidelines, only disambiguations themselves (disambiguation pages or hatnotes) should link to disambiguation pages. Largoplazo (talk) 14:57, 29 February 2020 (UTC)
 * Yes, that's why I didn't think that the yeet (slang) was appropriate for a soft redirect, with which Utopes concurred. I disagree, though, that redirecting this redirect to the disambiguation page, where yeet is mentioned in a Wiktionary link is "creating a puzzle." Redirecting this to any other target besides a disambiguation page would've been entirely inappropriate; where the term is ambiguous and has multiple uses, redirecting to a disambiguation page of the same name is entirely correct. We literally do this all the time...one need only look through the past couple months' worth of RfDs whereby redirects for Captain Walker qualified by a parenthetical qualifier have been retargeted to the Captain Walker disambiguation page. At any rate, having this discussion at RfD, where discussions are often more collegial and less BITEy than at AfD, is actually better than PRODding this in that the creator could've otherwise requested undeletion at WP:REFUND (albeit into Draft: namespace) and, if this is recreated within a reasonable timeframe, it will be eligible for speedy deletion (G4). Doug Mehus T · C  15:14, 29 February 2020 (UTC)
 * , the problem was that Yeet (slang) was originally an article before you turned it into a soft redirect, which is why Steel suggested the discussion be held at AfD instead of RfD. The article was PRODed, and you declined the PROD. Declined PRODs always go to Articles for Deletion (or Files for Deletion) per WP:DEPROD. Utopes (talk / cont) 15:21, 29 February 2020 (UTC)
 * , okay, I wasn't aware of WP:DEPROD, but nevertheless, as decliner of the PROD, there's no obligation for me, as decliner of the PROD to take any action. In this case, I boldly redirected what was a dictionary definition and not appropriate for the encyclopedia. So I'm not really seeing how this was inappropriate. Since we're not a bureaucracy and, notionally, have no rules, this seemed like a reasonable approach given the circumstances. We have so many rules, often in conflict with each other, that it's nearly impossible to know all of them or even follow them all the time. I'm not saying we should do this in every case, but I don't see how redirecting an ambiguous term to a page which disambiguates the ambiguous term is improper. Doug Mehus T · C  15:27, 29 February 2020 (UTC)
 * "... I don't see how redirecting an ambiguous term to a page which disambiguates the ambiguous term is improper." That's just the problem ... that's not what happened. You redirected this title to a disambiguation page which contains no examples (must be more than one) of articles for slang terms of "Yeet". I have outlined this in my original comment in this discussion. Steel1943  (talk) 16:24, 29 February 2020 (UTC)
 * Trying to understand here, but where does it say the disambiguation page must disambiguate two or more uses of a slang term? The Wiktionary link to yeet is one mention of the ambiguous term; the other bluelinked mentions to Yeet show the ambiguity. What am I missing here? Doug Mehus T · C  16:27, 29 February 2020 (UTC)
 * yeet is not an article, and "Yeet (slang)" is not an exact title match of the title at Wiktionary, so a Wiktionary redirect would be inappropriate. On Wikipedia, if a redirect is not ambiguous with any other articles, it gets redirected to the only article which it can refer, not a disambiguation page. Since there is no article which this term can refer, there is nowhere to redirect this title. This is why the article should have remained and the article either WP:PROD-ed appropriately or sent to WP:AFD. Again, this is why your WP:BLANKANDREDIRECT was improper: You didn't redirect it to either an article which it can refer or a disambiguation page which lists at least two examples proving why it is ambiguous. Steel1943  (talk) 16:31, 29 February 2020 (UTC)
 * (x3), you've pointed to WP:BLANKANDREDIRECT several times, but that doesn't explain why the redirection was an inappropriate alternative to deletion. I note that even WP:PRODNOM references WP:ATD, so why can't we redirect here? Which policy are you referring that substantiates your rationale? That's what I'm, legitimately, trying to understand here. Doug Mehus T · C  16:38, 29 February 2020 (UTC)
 * At this point, you're going to have to figure that out on your own ... because to me, it's razor-sharp common sense. Steel1943  (talk) 16:40, 29 February 2020 (UTC)
 * Okay, I'll try, but I'm not really seeing it. Nevertheless, I support deletion here, as an implausible search term and an unnecessary disambiguation qualifier. This redirect is entirely unnecessary. Maybe AfD would've been better, but I do see RfD as a plausible deletion venue given that I was not obligated to take it to AfD upon dePRODding. I could've also draftified it, if I saw plausible workings of an article, which I didn't. Doug Mehus T · C  16:45, 29 February 2020 (UTC)
 * "... I don't see how redirecting an ambiguous term to a page which disambiguates ...": You didn't redirect an ambiguous term. You redirected a term that was already disambiguated in the title. Largoplazo (talk) 16:36, 29 February 2020 (UTC)


 * Restore article so it can be taken to AfD, I can see a case for notability so that should be hashed out there. I will also pile on to the trout slap of for the improper redirection to a disambiguation that does not contain slang entries. -- Tavix  ( talk ) 15:48, 29 February 2020 (UTC)
 * Trouting, I think, isn't necessary because I redirected this, in good-faith, since this term was (a) ambiguous and (b) mentioned on a disambiguation page which disambiguates the ambiguous term in a Wiktionary link, there. Moreover, Utopes even 'thanked' me for the redirect, which provided concurrence that this was a plausible outcome here per alternatives to deletion. Nothing at WP:DEPROD requires any action to be taken; I nevertheless did not feel it was appropriate to keep this dictionary definition by dePRODding it, so I retargeted. Also, restoration of the article would create only needless bureaucracy in that this discussion would have to play out for their to be consensus to restore as an article, and then it would have to be renominated at AfD. There's nearly enough consensus here for deletion, so it can probably be closed early in a day or two. Doug Mehus T · C  16:06, 29 February 2020 (UTC)
 * Yeet is ambiguous. Yeet (slang) is not. Largoplazo (talk) 16:38, 29 February 2020 (UTC)
 * Because of the disambiguation qualifier, yes, but that makes it unnecessary disambiguation, and thus a good candidate for RfD. We've literally redirected half a dozen unnecessary disambiguation redirects to disambiguation pages as alternatives to deletion recently, so how is this different? Doug Mehus T · C  16:42, 29 February 2020 (UTC)
 * This redirect is not a R from unnecessary disambiguation in its current form since the the target is not a page about a slang term, but rather is a disambiguation page. In fact, honestly, I cannot think of a situation where a R from unnecessary disambiguation should target a disambiguation page; the only possible exception is when a redirect ending with "(disambiguation)" targets a disambiguation page that does not end with "(disambiguation)", but those redirects use a more precise WP:RCAT template instead: R to disambiguation page.

I somewhat agree that the Republic of the Congo could be considered "North" and the Democratic Republic of the Congo could be considered "South", and I could imagine that these redirects could be potentially useful, even if it very few circumstances, such as a user not remembering which of the Republic of the Congos was the Democratic one or not, so they use the directional qualifiers to specify.

 * Delete as unclear and confusing. The Democratic Republic of the Congo extends both north and south of the Republic of the Congo. Narky Blert (talk) 09:21, 29 February 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete. Google searches demonstrate that the terms refer exclusively to the north or south of each country and not to the entire countries. DrKay (talk) 12:36, 29 February 2020 (UTC)

The ".2C" is a comma in URL speak, but as far is I know, we don't use or encourage URL equivalents in redirects. Steel1943 (talk) 02:34, 29 February 2020 (UTC)

I propose a retarget to Alba as this is an alternative form of that word. This may get deleted (borderline number of pageviews) but it causes less harm than most redirects with about this amount of pageviews.  J 947 &thinsp;(c) , at  01:51, 29 February 2020 (UTC)
 * Retarget to Alba per J947. Utopes (talk / cont) 03:24, 29 February 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete as ambiguous. There's also DAB page Halba. Narky Blert (talk) 08:46, 29 February 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete per Narky. Doug Mehus T · C  14:54, 29 February 2020 (UTC)
 * Retarget to Alba, as I see no ambiguity. (It's unlikely that someone who encountered "halba" without a hyphen would search for it with an arbitrary hyphen after the first letter.) However, I also just added a "see also" to Halba for this. Largoplazo (talk) 17:13, 29 February 2020 (UTC)
 * Retarget to Alba where this form of the word is discussed. Echoing Largoplazo, I don't see how anything else at Halba could be spelled "H-alba". -- Tavix ( talk ) 18:21, 29 February 2020 (UTC)
