 * I am leaning towards deletion, but maybe not. Is time contraction a reasonable search term for someone who is looking for time dilation but can't remember exactly what it is called? --Guy Macon (talk) 23:31, 18 March 2021 (UTC)
 * Delete per Salix alba. --Guy Macon (talk) 10:47, 19 March 2021 (UTC)
 * Delete. Not mentioned in the target article so sending readers here with a redirect is pointless. In the discussions above there is a strong consensus against including this material due to the absence of secondary peer reviewed work. Google turns up about a dozen poorly cited papers mentioning this effect, a couple dozen forum posts, some blogs and a load of results unrelated to relativity. As a typo redirect I think it's ambiguous as searchers could be looking for Time dilation or Length contraction. 86.23.109.101 (talk) 23:48, 18 March 2021 (UTC)
 * Delete in answer to Guy's question about it being a reasonable search term is to look at the stats with all of two hits in the last month. --Salix alba (talk): 08:23, 19 March 2021 (UTC)
 * Delete: Fringe, non-notable topic, not mentioned in target article, and an unlikely search term for time dilation. --Slashme (talk) 10:00, 19 March 2021 (UTC)

Retarget redirect to Buzz.

Not sure the best protocol to follow here. There are a lot of these redirects with some history back when everything could have a page.

 * Great Radiance → Big Bang (talk · links · [//en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Great_Radiance&action=history history] · stats)     [ Closure:  ]

This name for the big bang is apparently related to some kind of religious movement in the U.S. that blends science and religion together to create a narrative about the creation of the universe. I think this would probably serve better as a redirect to something related to the religious movement. Perhaps Epic of evolution would be a suitable target, but the term is only briefly mentioned in that article, or Michael Dowd, the writer that coined the term. 86.23.109.101 (talk) 12:40, 18 March 2021 (UTC)

Delete as ambiguous (and badly capitalised - I can't find any use as a proper name). The current target infers the searcher is looking for a watch battery, but it is more likely they are looking for a battery-operated watch. Shhhnotsoloud (talk) 08:09, 18 March 2021 (UTC)

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

Propose retargeting to Advanced Configuration and Power Interface. This originally target the Confederate States of America, and was targeted here through IP vandalism and a double-redirect bot late last year. The current target is clearly innappropriate. However, I've got a good deal of familiarity with the American Civil War, and "C. States" isn't a particularly common (although not completely unknown) construction for the CSA. A WP:BEFORE suggests that the computer topic is likely the primary topic, which is also where C state points.
