King of Germany

 * 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 List of German monarchs. Absent further participation after 2 relists, consensus seems clear that the List of German monarchs page is more useful to readers, even though it contains people whose title was not explicitly "King of Germany". Legoktm (talk) 06:26, 25 December 2022 (UTC)


 * King of Germany → King of the Romans (talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure:  ]

Retarget to List of German monarchs, its original target. This redirect has been contentious almost since its creation. Multiple users have swapped it between these two targets over the years. The list is a more useful target for readers than the article about an official title, especially given the contexts in which the term is likely to be linked. It is also more consistent with all the other redirects to the list. Srnec (talk) 14:35, 2 December 2022 (UTC)


 * Retarget, I fully agree with the points made by Srnec. I'll add that the list of the Kings of the Romans is also included in the page of German monarchs, so I don't see a big problem for those who type King of Germany and expect to find it.

 * Retarget per nom. - Presidentman talk · contribs (Talkback) 18:56, 2 December 2022 (UTC)
 * Retarget back to List of German monarchs per nom, Barjimoa, and Presidentman. This term can refer to any German king, as opposed to just the Kings of the Romans. Regards, SONIC 678 23:13, 2 December 2022 (UTC)
 * Retarget per nomination back to List of German monarchs, as it used to be. King of the Romans should be about the specific title, while King of Germany (hardly ever the official title but understood as "ruler of what is now Germany") should redirect to the list. Str1977 (talk) 23:24, 2 December 2022 (UTC) PS. Additionally, succession boxes that use the term King of Germany now all falsely take the reader to the King of the Romans article instead of the proper List of (Roman-)German kings. Str1977 (talk) 02:57, 3 December 2022 (UTC)
 * Oppose, there weren't any kings of Germany apart from in the Holy Roman Empire. German king is not equivalent to king of Germany. Many monarchs in the list were emperors rather than kings. Marcocapelle (talk) 23:27, 2 December 2022 (UTC)
 * All of these monarchs were kings before and beside being Emperor. Some bore the title "King in Germany". Str1977 (talk) 02:57, 3 December 2022 (UTC)

 * The result of the discussion was move  without leaving a redirect to Nihali (language). Though the discussion has been a little muddled, I see agreement that the history should be preserved in some way. --BDD (talk) 22:13, 4 January 2023 (UTC)


 * Nihali language/archive → Nihali language (talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure:  ]

There's a somewhat confusing history here, but if I'm correctly reading the long-ago actions of Nat Krause and Kwamikagami, this page's historical content was all merged into Kalto language. (See that article and Nihali language for information on confusion between the two.) So move without redirect to , an available redlink. -- Tamzin  [ cetacean needed ] (she&#124;they&#124;xe) 05:49, 1 December 2022 (UTC)


 * The article was always about Nihali, with only some spurious admixture of data from Kalto, so moving the page history to Kalto-anything wouldn't be appropriate IMO. — kwami (talk) 06:17, 1 December 2022 (UTC)
 * Was any of its content actually merged anywhere? If not, it can just be deleted. --  Tamzin  [ cetacean needed ] (she&#124;they&#124;xe) 20:19, 1 December 2022 (UTC)
 * It was just a place to store the page history, because I didn't know how to merge the histories without creating a mess. I didn't think we should delete because it is a record of edits going back to 2004. — kwami (talk) 20:23, 1 December 2022 (UTC)
 * Right, but, edits to which page? --  Tamzin  [ cetacean needed ] (she&#124;they&#124;xe) 20:35, 1 December 2022 (UTC)
 * Check the edit history. When Scythian99 created it back in 2004, it started "Nahali (or Nihali, also known as Kalto) is a language isolate spoken in ..." When Dbachmann revised it in 2007, it started "Nihali is a language isolate of India," had an ISO code of iso3=nll, and ref'd Kuiper (1962) Nahali: A Comparative Study. It remained basically the same until it was merged. So it's always been about the language isolate [nll], and Uanfala's suggestion below would work. — kwami (talk) 03:11, 21 December 2022 (UTC)

 * I don't see Nat Krause having merged the contents to any page although the edit summary says merging to Kalto language. Delete or move without redirect to Nihali (language). Jay  💬 07:19, 8 December 2022 (UTC)
 * , isn't this the diff of the merge? – Uanfala (talk) 17:02, 20 December 2022 (UTC)
 * I had seen this but didn't think this was the merge as I was expecting all the content to be there. Looking at your diff again closely, it looks like two lines from the source were combined and added as this line to the destination: Further hypotheses involve possible connections to the Andamanese languages and the controversial Indo-Pacific phylum. At the time of the merge, the destination was called Kalto, had content about Kalto, and the redirect also happened to Kalto, so will agree with what Tamzin said, and disagree with 's statement of . The destination was then moved to Nihali, and the content rephrased to Nihali, and the merged content  as undue weight. Striking off my delete vote. I'm fine with Uanfala's suggested title also.  Jay  💬 02:04, 21 December 2022 (UTC)
 * Just a passing note (though that's probably not relevant): as far as I can see from the article's history, it has always been about the language isolate Nihali, despite being some time titled "Kalto" (a title which later got used for an article about an unrelated Indo-Aryan language). – Uanfala (talk) 12:15, 21 December 2022 (UTC)

 *  Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.


 * Move (in order to preserve the venerable old history: even if the merged text is no longer present in the current version of Nihali language, it's still of at least historic interest) to Nihali (language isolate) (weakly preferable to the alternatives because it keeps the title unambiguous and follows the common pattern of disambiguating languages by family in parentheses) without leaving a redirect behind (subpages don't exist as such in mainspace, and this has the potential to get in the way of reader searches). – Uanfala (talk) 17:02, 20 December 2022 (UTC)
 * Move to Talk:Nihali language/archive and note its existence on the talkpage (using merged-from). History of merged material must be kept per Merge and delete and the legal requirements of the licensing conditions.  However, this should not be in mainspace as it is not a valid search term and sub-pages are not permitted in mainspace (the "/" does not create a sub-page, that feature is deliberately turned off in mainspace). I really don't understand the logic behind the suggestion to restore as an article.  That is entirely contrary to WP:CFORK unless I am missing something here. SpinningSpark</b> 11:01, 21 December 2022 (UTC)
 * I don't think anyone is suggesting restoring the article. What is proposed is moving it to a different redirect, for the same reasons that you lay out. Keeping it in mainspace, I believe, is less confusing than crossing over into a talk subpage (which among other things could later get in the way of archiving). There's no need for merged-from: the merged content was minimal, and it has long been removed from the article. – Uanfala (talk) 12:15, 21 December 2022 (UTC)
 * Agree. No one suggested a restore. It has been a redirect since 2008 and will continue to be so. Jay  💬 12:39, 21 December 2022 (UTC)

 * Keep as search results show it to be an existant typo. I think I may have actually made this specific typo before; it's like my fingers don't like the word Zimbabwe, not coping with the and  one after the other. It's hard to type quickly (YMMV of course), so we should be a bit more lenient here. Or, it could also be an actual misspelling.  J947  † edits 21:50, 7 December 2022 (UTC)
 * As to why it hasn't been previously-created or much used, my explanation is that it's a typo easily spotted and corrected in publishing – whereas the reader searching it on Wikipedia does not have a second shot to spot their error. Anyway that whole line of reasoning based on creation date isn't very important IMO as there are many fewer redirects on the site than there should be, which is something I think everyone here would agree with. (Press this link once or twice and see if there's a redirect for the person's full name, including middle name. This applies for misnomers as well he says confidently.)  J947  † edits 23:13, 21 December 2022 (UTC)
 * Weak delete. The fact that this redirect was recently created (in March 2022) makes me think this misspelling isn't as common as others have pointed out. And if it were, then why wasn't it created sooner?

 * Hmm. Shows up in the text layer of this journal editorial (available via TWL), this journal article (ditto), and this academic art review but I think as an OCR error brought on by the rarity of an italicized "bw". Likewise here, with OCR of a poorly-preserved monospace document. And then with Google we can see it in various non-RS uses around the Web, and there's no requirement that a source be reliable to be used at RfD, so... meh.

 * Comment. Maybe retargeting to a more general article is an option. Depigmentation or Pigmentation disorder by the titles seem like good candidates, but they are a bit lacking. Pigmentation disorder is a stub and doesn't explain common pigmentation disorders. Though it hosts the useful, but hard to navigate Pigmentation disorder template. Depigmentation leads well with a quick summary of common disorders, but devolves into thinly veiled advertisement for skin whitening procedures. That article might need to be brought to discussion for deletion.  &#8213; Synpath 19:32, 8 December 2022 (UTC)

 * Technically it is mentioned in the article, in reference #2 that points to an archive of the NYT, which claims it's a 1992 film. OTOH the Bangor Daily News article from 1994 is also rather convincing. I think it's probably more important to figure out what year the movie was actually released in, ensure the title is there, and then delete incorrect redirects.

Should all target the same place. Sheriffs in the United States is much better, but other countries have or have had the position (e.g. UK:, Sheriffs in New Zealand). So, reluctantly, all should probably go to Sheriff even though "deputy" is not mentioned in that article. <b style="color:#034503">MB</b> 05:38, 11 December 2022 (UTC) Relisting comment: One more go since participation has been limited, and the US vs non-US argument is unresolved.

 * Per MB, they should all target the same place. I find it hard to believe that deputy sheriff's only exist, or have only ever existed, in the US context.  But since we don't seem to have any information on Wikipedia about any other kind of deputy sheriff, then that's where teh redirects should go. <b style="background:#FAFAD2;color:#C08000">Spinning</b><b style="color:#4840A0">Spark</b> 15:54, 11 December 2022 (UTC)

It seems to me the ideal solution would be if sheriffs, deputy sherriffs and undersheriffs were all dealt with in the same article.  Probably "chief sheriff", "deputy chief sheriff" etc could also be there. Oh, and just noticed chief deputy also exists.

 * Founding Fathers → List of national founders (talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure:  ]

At a quick glance, I'd say every one of the 88 articles that contain this link actually mean Founding Fathers of the United States; and it seems highly likely that anyone searching for this term would be looking for the US founding fathers too. It's clearly the primary topic, so the redirect should lead there. A hatnote on List of national founders should be added at the same time. Colonies Chris (talk) 16:35, 24 November 2022 (UTC)

 * Retarget to Founding Fathers of the United States. At least in English this is likely to be the primary topic for this search term, most of the figures mentioned in the current target are not referred to as "Founding Fathers" (e.g. Canada is Fathers of Confederation). Founding fathers of the European Union is not nearly as widely used and I would not expect someone in the EU to refer to them as just "the Founding Fathers".  Hut 8.5  18:13, 1 December 2022 (UTC)

 * Keep: We shouldn't assume that people are looking for the US Founding Fathers, when other countries also use this name, and there's a helpful list article that covers all of them. For people wanting the US one, it's one extra click from the list to the US article.

 * Retarget to Founding Fathers of the United States (I'll abbreviate that to FFUS). Search and incoming links suggest that FFUS is a primary topic by both usage and long-term significance.  The incorrect links indicate that authors of 88 articles expected FFUS to be the primary topic, so any other target would be a WP:SURPRISE for our readers.

 * Retarget to US meaning. As a non-American, I have never heard it used in any other context, certainly not in the plural.  It's the primary meaning in the Anglophone world as a gbooks search will quickly show (as well as a Wikipedia article search).  I also note that very few, if any, on the List of national founders are actually referred to as "founding father".

 * Ahl al-Sunnah wa'l-Jamaah → Barelvi (talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure:  ]

If we care for consistence on this project, this should be best targeted to Ahlus Sunnah Wal Jamaah, which is currently a disambiguation page, and this spelling is just an alternate spelling. Having it redirected to Barelvi is not just confusing but in my opinion something that is against WP:NPOV since there are so many groups and Muslim sects that are termed/referred to as Ahlus-sunnah Wal Jam'ah (that is why we have disambiguation), and in that case having this alternate spelling to Barelvi appears to be problematic. I suggest retargeting it to Ahlus Sunnah Wal Jamaah. ─ The Aafī   (talk)  11:22, 9 December 2022 (UTC)


 * I would agree that there's not a lot of consistency in general around this term, but I oppose this redirect for now until the disambiguation page itself is better discussed. The disambiguation page currently redirects to several other pages with extremely close spelling variants including Ahlus Sunnah wal Jamaah, which is exactly the same as the disambiguation page's title, just with a lower case 'w'. As it stands, "Ahl al-Sunnah wa'l-Jamaah" is a fairly distinctive spelling relative to the other entries on the disambiguation page, and is attested by the Oxford Dictionary of Islam Iskandar323 (talk) 11:51, 9 December 2022 (UTC)
 * It is really weird to trust this source in these matters. Ironically, it calls the people following the thought of Ahmad Raza Khan to be the founders of Darul Uloom Deoband. It says, "Indo-Pakistani reformist ulama movement centered in the Dar al-Ulum of Deoband. The school was founded (1867) by scholars associated with the thought of Sayyid Ahmad Reza Khan Barelwi to preserve the teachings of the faith during non-Muslim rule.". If we are going to trust this one source, the whole demography of Deobandi and Darul Uloom Deoband articles would change. So, let's just leave this and discuss what we have to do with all the different variants of Ahlus Sunnah Wal Jama'h. Pinging @Apaugasma for their helpful and insightful comments. ─ The Aafī   (talk)  18:54, 9 December 2022 (UTC)


 * I would agree, unfortunately there's a lot of POV from certain editors attempting to equate ASWJ with Barelvi, which, of course, threatens the neutrality of Wikipedia. ASWJ is merely the Arabic name for Sunni Islam and there are many groups who ascribe with that name, not just Barelvi. SalamAlayka (talk) 14:43, 9 December 2022 (UTC)
 * Properly, (as WP:MOSAR should transcribe the expression) is one of the earliest self-designations of Sunni Muslims. From the  Encyclopaedia of Islam, Second Edition, article Sunna (full text now available here for those logged in to WP:LIBRARY):
 * , an early, mainly political, designation of one of the warring parties at Ṣiffīn mentioned above. This designation survived in a number of biographical notices devoted to 2nd/8th and 3rd/9th century traditionists who were labelled as or. The term is another such early self-designation; from the same article: One individual from among the was called a . Probably the earliest definition of a  is attributed to Ibn al-Mubārak (d. 181/797 [q.v.]).
 * When a modern movement or organization calls itself this functions as a claim of representing the early, 'original' Sunni tradition, going all the way back to the Battle of Siffin (657; in reality Sunnism is of course a product of the late 8th/early 9th century). Ultimately though the expression is simply an elaborate synonym for 'Sunnis'. Several organizations with this name are listed at Ahlus Sunnah Wal Jamaah (which should be moved to Ahl al-Sunna wa-l-Jama'a per WP:MOSAR), but I don't believe any of these organizations is the primary topic, and given its fundamentally ambiguous nature I think the expression itself should absolutely stay a disambiguation page. Any alternative transliteration (see Template:R from alternative transliteration) should redirect to that disambiguation page: people will type in the expression or names of the organizations in all kinds of transliteration systems (the fact that this concerns transliterations and not simply 'spellings' is relevant) that they are personally most familiar with, so whenever they don't hit the exact spelling used by the organization itself they should be redirected to a disambiguation page to make sure they arrive at the right one.
 * So basically, support retarget to Ahlus Sunnah Wal Jamaah as proposed. ☿ Apaugasma  ( talk  ☉) 01:06, 10 December 2022 (UTC)

 * What sources would that be? Sources which mention that the Barelvi movement is sometimes also called (by its own adherents), or sources which establish that the Barelvi movement is the most common and notable referent (i.e., the wp:primary topic) for the expression ? I see only sources of the former kind, but it's the latter kind of sources (or statistical data) that would be needed to ground your !vote here in the existing guidelines for disambiguation. The other movements and organizations listed at the disambiguation page proposed as a target by OP have equally strong claims as a referent for the expression, to say nothing about the primary meaning of the expression as a synonym for Sunni Islam (which without question is primary with respect to long-term significance, and probably also with respect to common usage). ☿ Apaugasma  ( talk  ☉) 17:54, 10 December 2022 (UTC)

 * I don't see that a merge happened. redirected it on Mar 23, 2009, but there was no merge to the target at the time, nor did he merge it to any other target. Probably he was only repeating an earlier redirect by Bryan Derksen (Jan 31 30, 2008).  also did not merge to any other target, nor was the target having any merge. In fact, the article had been deleted by then by  as part of the close at WP:Articles for deletion/List of ancient Jedi, but for some reason Bryan restored the article with summary . As part of the restoration, the page's history may have messed up. The page shows as deleted on Oct 3, 2007 and undeleted on Mar 6, 2008. However, Bryan's redirect shows on Jan 31 30, 2008 which I can't explain. However it appears to have been an individual admin decision to reverse another admin's close, so I would recommend Delete.  Jay  💬 15:33, 23 November 2022 (UTC)
 * So what happened is Bryan Derksen created a new redirect on Jan 31 30, then may have realized it was a page with history, and may have made an individual admin decision to restore the history. Jay  💬 02:08, 24 November 2022 (UTC)
 * From my perspective, I believe that there might be a bit more to this. On January 30th, 2008, Bryan Derksen apparently restored both List of ancient Jedi and List of Ancient Jedi.  (Diff of ancient Jedi.)  Another user (User:PhilKnight?) put a deletion notice on Ancient Jedi. (Possibly PhilKnight based on this edit.)  User:Hmwith then deleted Ancient Jedi on Feburary 4th.  (Apparently can't link to stuff in the Public Logs.)  This left ancient Jedi untouched with a redirect to Jedi#Major Jedi.  (Jedi had a section on ancient Jedi at the time.)  Bryan comes back to this on March 6th and restores the edit history for ancient Jedi.  (Interestingly, there was an Administrator's noticeboard discussion involving Bryan a week after this about restoring an article that went through the AfD process and bringing it back as a redirect.  Bryan was deemed to be in the right in that situation as the restoration was related to the edit history.)  It seems like the reasoning for the redirects and restorations might have had something to do with attribution.  As far as I can tell, none of the information in the original article was moved/copied off-wiki or otherwise used elsewhere on the wiki, but it is possible that it existed at the time and has been deleted.  Though, this is a guess that lacks proof.  Given that Bryan was linking to the Jedi article, maybe it just had to do with the fact that 13 of the linked Ancient Jedi were originally linked to the Ancient Jedi article.  This is as far as I could figure things out, but I think there was more intent in that redirect than what it currently looks like.
 * To go a bit beyond: DocumentN makes the link point closer to the proper location in April (but also adds the merge notice for some unclear reason), the Jedi article was mostly nuked in late June by a user later banned as a sockpuppet (including part of the Ancient Jedi section), The Ancient Jedi link gets revived on August 1st by another sock account, an IP address removes the last mentions of the Ancient Jedi from the Jedi article on August 3rd, and both User:Eusebeus (for ancient Jedi) and User:OlEnglish (for Ancient Jedi) making the first edits to each post-2008 to try to mend the redirects. --Super Goku V (talk) 03:50, 6 December 2022 (UTC)
 * Delete the bundled one as well, per the others. Jay  💬 06:10, 27 November 2022 (UTC)
 * Thanks for looking up the AN discussion, and other pointers. If we're looking for proof, we should be looking for content from the redirect's history that was merged to any other article, and I could not find proof of that, as mentioned above. However, I do not mind restoring the (lowercase ancient) redirect for improvement or AfD, per my note below. Jay  💬 19:44, 10 December 2022 (UTC)
 * Personally, even if there is proof, it is likely that it is long gone or buried very deeply somewhere. Since the content doesn't seem to exist anywhere else based on our searches, it is likely reasonable to just say that the odds the material was improperly transferred and exists elsewhere in some format is nearly non-existent.  I felt though that I should mention the possibility given what happened around that time.  --Super Goku V (talk) 07:08, 12 December 2022 (UTC)

Relisting comment: One more try... Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Steel1943  (talk) 04:11, 17 December 2022 (UTC)
 * Comment Tthis is a bit of a mess due to how long ago things happened and actions taken since that 2007 AfD. Part of the problem is that there is "List of Ancient Jedi" which was the original article and "List of ancient Jedi" which is where that was moved to.  To be 'somewhat' brief, there was a purge in fictional Star Wars lists in the second half of 2007, which appears to be partly based on the old policy of Notability (fiction) and partly because of an article written on another website critiquing Wikipedia called "The 8 Most Needlessly Detailed Wikipedia Entries".  Some of the AfDs for those other Star Wars lists link back to the 2007 AfD.  It should be noted that the old Notability for fiction policy was problematic enough to undergo multiple rewrite attempts and proposals between 2007 to 2011, with it now having the sentence: ""
 * Personally, I think my recommendation for this situation would be for the Jedi article to briefly cover the subject of Ancient Jedi (with Ancient Jedi redirecting to the Jedi article) or have a standalone article regarding the Ancient Jedi that can be linked to on the Jedi article, provided that there is enough content for a standalone article. (As an aside, there are at least a dozen current or former ancient Jedi mentioned at List of Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic characters, though the article currently does not mention this.  In fact, the only mention of time is the small potion "set 4,000 years before the Star Wars films" in the lede, which makes it unlikely to be suitable as a redirect for this subject.  However, given that article alone, I believe that there could be enough content for a Ancient Jedi article.)  --- As for the redirects, it might be possible to restore the original list and significantly update it to modern policy, but that would at least require overturning a 15 year old AfD.  I don't know if there is a method to doing so given the length of time nor if there are good enough reasons to do so.  While at least one of the guidelines at the time of the AfD is no longer relevant, there could be other guidelines and policies at play that would discourage such a list.  --Super Goku V (talk) 02:24, 6 December 2022 (UTC)
 * Your last points appear to be a vote for "restore and expand", but at the same time you are unsure what notability guidelines have changed the last 15 years, so it also appears to be a vote for "restore and discuss again at AfD". So yes, either of these options will "overturn" the AfD, and this RfD is a proper forum to do it. Jay  💬 19:44, 10 December 2022 (UTC)
 * Ah, I only just saw this. I was unsure what would be the best thing to do with these two links and figured that it was better to have a long comment than to suggest something impossible or unreasonable, but it is good to learn that there is a method to overturn discussion from long ago and that this discussion could reverse it.  Though, I should have have made clearer mentioned that the list as it existed would require a significant cleanup if it is restored.  (Only seven of the 107 entries had sources before the AfD concluded, if my count a moment ago is correct.)  I would say that "restore and discuss again at AfD" would be my vote.  --Super Goku V (talk) 06:57, 12 December 2022 (UTC)

 * Delete The proposed retarget will only confuse or disappoint readers, since we don't discuss "ancient Jedi" there. Given current notability standards, I don't see how we could ever maintain such a list. Nor does List of Star Wars characters subdivide by type of character. I understand the desire to restore and send to AfD, but given the plainly likely outcome of such a discussion, that would be bureaucracy. --BDD (talk) 21:59, 4 January 2023 (UTC)

 * Retarget to Salmonidae (no section). This article establishes the connection between salmon and trout as being members of the same family, gives the collective name 'salmonids', and describes the collective traits of salmonids.

 * Retarget to Salmonidae (no section) per Tavix. The other ways of writing this could be created also (but aesthetically to me at least it makes sense to put them in alphabetical order).

 * Delete. Retargeting is unnecessary. Besides salmon and trout, Salmonidae also consists of the char, the lemons, the taimans, the graylings, the whitefishes etc. Additionally, salmon and trout are just used as two common names and they each have species in Oncorhynchus and Salmo. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 574923Ww?
