Soft redirect category, left over after the category was renamed to the correct Category:Electronic music festivals in the Netherlands. I don't see the need to keep this one, it's unlikely people will search for this specific capitalisation. Or is it normal to have category redirects from alternative capitalisations? Robofish (talk) 22:43, 1 May 2020 (UTC)
 * (I reviewed the guidance at WP:Category redirects that should be kept, and I don't think this qualifies.) Robofish (talk) 22:43, 1 May 2020 (UTC)


 * Delete. There are no uses or links to this redirect. Shhhnotsoloud (talk) 09:08, 2 May 2020 (UTC)
 * Weak keep, some people might mistakenly capitalize the T in "the," but I don't know about it with there being no links to the redirect. Regards, SONIC  678  05:41, 4 May 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete – Any search will find a match to the correct article irrespective of the capitalization. Keeping it will only legitimize the incorrect capitalization if used as a link in articles. Senator2029  “Talk”   10:34, 6 May 2020 (UTC)

Requesting help from the community in deciding on the best target for these. The first one has been pointing to the dab page Censorship since 2006 (having briefly oscillated between this target and the page on meta m:Censorship). The plural form targeted the same meta page 2005–2006, was then repointed to MediaWiki:Bad image list in 2006 and then retargeted again in 2014 to Manual of Style/Images.

Ambiguous search term, could also refer to the establishment of the Provisional Government of the Republic of Poland, the Provisional Government of National Unity, or the Polish People's Republic.

 * Keep per Thryduulf. I don't support mass creation of this sort of thing, but it's pretty standard for + to show up in a url rather than a space.
