 * Actual → Potentiality and actuality (talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure:  ]

This redirect to Potentiality and actuality doesn't make sense. Even ignoring that actuality (the state of being real) and actual (being real) refer to different things, the "potentiality and actuality" article is specifically about 'actuality' as used Aristotelian physics/metaphysics, and not in the general sense. If this is re-targeted, I think Existence is much more suitable. ~ F4U (talk • they/it) 16:38, 12 December 2023 (UTC) Relisting comment: Retarget or soft redirect?

 * Delete per nom. Also, it's worth noting that content at this title has been deleted multiple times since 2006. Steel1943  (talk) 18:59, 12 December 2023 (UTC)
 * On that note, soft redirect to actual per the fact content has been repeatedly created at this title. Steel1943  (talk) 19:01, 12 December 2023 (UTC)
 * Perhaps switch to reality. I am an editor of the article involved (which has however not been much edited for a long time). F4U: As per the 3rd sentence of the article: "Actuality, in contrast to potentiality, is the motion, change or activity that represents an exercise or fulfillment of a possibility, when a possibility becomes real in the fullest sense." So "actuality" in this Aristotelian sense is not "being real" even if there is a sort of connection. I think a more suitable adjective for the special Aristotelian term would be something like "actualized", "activated", or even "actuated". The term "actual" OTOH might better redirect to reality, rather than existence (or being). Those are two articles and my understanding is that the terms real and actual are more about understanding the character of existence, which is more like the original Aristotelian approach, than trying to grok the contrast between existence/being and non-existence. Reality currently even has a subsection on potentiality and actuality, so that seems a better fit?--Andrew Lancaster (talk) 21:51, 12 December 2023 (UTC)
 * All of these options seem to be potentially misleading, considering that the word "actual" tends to be an adjective or adverb, all the options for retargeting mentioned here are nouns, and none of the options contain the word "actual" anywhere in it (which would establish a strong connection to the redirect.) For these reasons, we cannot assume a reader searching this redirect would be trying to find any of these topics. Steel1943  (talk) 15:54, 15 December 2023 (UTC)
 * The concept of actual (from which actuality derives), in the sense of "existing in acto", is important and widely used in philosophy. That's why I think the entry should be kept. On the other hand, the problem of lack of context could be solved by transforming the redirect page into a disambig page (including actual idealism, potentiality and actuality, actual infinity, for instance). Yone (talk) 22:26, 12 December 2023 (UTC)
 * That's a bunch of obscure WP:PTMs right there, and those aren't included on disambiguation pages. Wikipedia search results would be more helpful, which can only be accomplished in a clean way if this redirect is deleted. Steel1943  (talk) 02:06, 13 December 2023 (UTC)
 * I saw this one in the review queue and was planning on nominating it once able to. That being said, a soft redirect to actual seems suitable here because I'm not convinced there would be an encyclopedic topic that could be sought from "Actual". Utopes (talk / cont) 04:57, 13 December 2023 (UTC)

 * Weak soft redirect no single clear target, and I agree with Utopes that it is unlikely an encyclopedic topic could be sought from "actual". 2601:5CC:8300:A7F0:C0E:690C:D942:5CFE (talk) 22:36, 20 December 2023 (UTC)

Not mentioned at the article, and could not find any external sources during my looks to confirm that this is an actual phrase used to describe studies of the Tupi language. Utopes (talk / cont) 08:23, 6 December 2023 (UTC)

Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, ✗  plicit  23:24, 13 December 2023 (UTC) Relisting comment: It seems that the term has been discussed in reliable sources, but there's still the issue of there being no mention of it in the target article; please discuss.

 * Keep, it is actually on reliable Portuguese dictionaries, such as Aulete and Michaelis—the translation is so trivial it should not be a problem at all. It can also be found on research papers, such as this one and this one (for instance, With the advent of Structuralism in Brazil in the fifties of the twentieth century and its dissemination in Brazilian universities, many criticisms were directed at Tupinology, i.e. the studies about ancient Tupi and those on Tupi-origin general languages that originated in Brazilian colonial times. This article analyzes such criticisms.) RodRabelo7 (talk) 13:19, 6 December 2023 (UTC)

 * <span id="Mold (food)">Mold (food) → Mold (cooking implement) (talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure:  ]

Unclear if this is referring to a mould being used as a cooking implement or mould that grows on food. "Mold (food)" has the same issue. HumanBodyPiloter5 (talk) 17:35, 20 December 2023 (UTC)


 * Bundling in Mold (food). —TechnoSquirrel69 (sigh) 18:33, 20 December 2023 (UTC)
 * Retarget to Mold (disambiguation) as a per nom. My first thought was mould that grows on food, but the cooking implement is equally likely. Note that Food mould and Mould (food) are currently both redlinks but should probably be created as s of the American English spellings when discussion here is complete. Thryduulf (talk) 12:19, 21 December 2023 (UTC)
 * retarget to the disambiguation page. Additionally, mold is also a foodstuff, not just the stuff that makes food go bad, or the form for shaping food. -- 65.92.247.66 (talk) 05:51, 22 December 2023 (UTC)

 * West St Leonards area → Bulverhythe (talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure:  ]

We already got a redirect for West St Leonards to the same target so this is an unlikely search term and redundant to that. Very low usage for this redirect too. Pkbwcgs (talk) 16:58, 20 December 2023 (UTC)
 * Weak keep ... but it's not erroneous, so WP:CHEAP may apply. Steel1943  (talk) 21:43, 20 December 2023 (UTC)
 * Keep. "Redundant" is almost never a reason to delete a redirect. Thryduulf (talk) 12:20, 21 December 2023 (UTC)
 * But, it's not useful at all and it's an unlikely search term. If it was at all useful, it wouldn't make it to RfD in the first place. Pkbwcgs (talk) 01:53, 22 December 2023 (UTC)
 * Many redirects that are useful get nominated at RfD, either because people don't know and/or understand WP:CHEAP or because there is a particular reason or context in which it is useful that they don't know. In this specific case, it seems like a very plausible search term to me - people are looking for the western area of St. Leonards and/or the area around West St. Leonards railway station. Thryduulf (talk) 02:25, 22 December 2023 (UTC)
 * Which is why West St Leonards exists as a redirect. Pkbwcgs (talk) 11:25, 22 December 2023 (UTC)
 * There is also WP:COSTLY which this redirect may fall under.  Crouch, Swale  ( talk ) 18:51, 24 December 2023 (UTC)
 * Weak delete per nom.  Crouch, Swale  ( talk ) 18:51, 24 December 2023 (UTC)
 * Keep. The existence of similar redirects usually isn't enough to overcome the fact that something is a plausible search term. At worst this falls into the category of "not worth creating, not worth deleting". -- Tamzin  &#91;<i style="color:#E6007A">cetacean needed</i>&#93; (they&#124;xe&#124;she) 20:12, 27 December 2023 (UTC)

 * Shaik → Sheikh (talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure:  ]

Create disambiguation article for Shaik. I attempted to do so, but since I was reverted, I am bringing the discussion here per WP:BRD, since Sheik has an article. Jax 0677 (talk) 15:09, 20 December 2023 (UTC)
 * Recreate the disambig at Shaik (disambiguation) then use WP:RM if you think it should be moved to the primary topic. Thryduulf (talk) 15:30, 20 December 2023 (UTC)
 *  Reply - Thank you for your suggestion. I am afraid that doing so before this discussion is closed might be perceived as circumventing the WP:BRD process.  Should I not wait until this thread is adjudicated?  MPGuy2824 "Restored revision 1144377902 by EmausBot" stating that "This is just a different spelling for the same word"/"No need for a separate disambiguation article". --Jax 0677 (talk) 15:46, 20 December 2023 (UTC)
 * No, it wouldn't circumvent BRD because you aren't repeating the edit at the same title. If you want to be doubly sure though, create the disambig in draft space or your user space. Thryduulf (talk) 00:52, 22 December 2023 (UTC)
 *  Support move -, Shaik (disambiguation) has now been created. With that said, I support the move of Shaik (disambiguation) to Shaik. --Jax 0677 (talk) 15:58, 22 December 2023 (UTC)

 * Comment. Some people using this might find what they are looking for at Management consulting (where Strategy consulting redirects; strategy consultant is a redlink but arguably should point to the same place), but as there is no content there specific to the automotive industry this wont help everyone. The thing that gives me pause over recommending deletion over the imperfect retarget is that search results for the redirect title don't find the general consulting article, the first two pages are almost exclusively people and companies that have been engaged in some sort of consulting related to the automotive industry rather than the article about the topic/concept that someone using the term is looking for. Regardless, I don't support keeping as is. Thryduulf (talk) 12:06, 4 December 2023 (UTC)

 * Very weak retarget to Management consulting as that will help some people while search results will help nobody (per my comment above). This isn't a great solution, but in the absence of other suggestions it's the least bad one I've been able to think of. Thryduulf (talk) 02:28, 22 December 2023 (UTC)
 * Delete very specific term with no content on enwiki. This has been around since 2007, but limited page views. To know if this is helpful to any new target, we may want to link it at some article. Jay  💬 06:16, 27 December 2023 (UTC)

Delete. SZA has no album named "PSA", only a song titled one from the album SOS.

Subject is not mentioned at the target. On a related note, I vaguely remember a number of past discussions from a while ago across various forums, from AfC to AfD about students(?) involved with this poll. This seems to be something of a leftover title from that situation. It doesn't seem like there would be any reason for this individual to be discussed at this page, so I feel this could be safely deleted. Utopes (talk / cont) 06:28, 5 December 2023 (UTC)

COSTLY arguments don't apply to redirects from moves, because in keeping such a redirect we aren't saying that it would be an acceptable redirect to create de novo, just that due to its history it should not be deleted. The fact that an article existed at a title for a nontrivial period of time is almost always a reason to keep it, unless someone can demonstrate a clear harm (like a patently misleading title). -- Tamzin  &#91;<i style="color:#E6007A">cetacean needed</i>&#93; (they&#124;xe&#124;she) 06:48, 27 December 2023 (UTC)

 * did a copy-and-paste bogus "move", and this is the redirect that xe put in place on top of the main edit history after copying the content to a new page. The main edit history is beneath where xe copied and pasted it, now.  I've left the redirect in place because I'm not taking any position on what title the article should be at.  I just wikignomed the copy-and-paste "move" back into a real move.  So this is effectively what things would look like had an actual move happened with the move tool and a redirect was left behind.

 * Per WP:SSRT (and the template documentation), double soft redirect seems intended for linking to sister projects, not to two different articles. I therefore don’t believe these should be kept as is - on the face of it, I’d be tempted to say that I don’t believe there should be double soft redirects in mainspace. I’ll do a bit more digging and will probably add a bolded !vote later for my preference on retargeting/deleting, but I just wanted to get this here first.

 * I’m leaning very weak retarget social media forum to social media, and delete social bookmarking forum (& move the draft currently at Talk:Social bookmarking forum to draftspace). Both terms could be ambiguous (hence why I’m guessing they were created as double redirects), which could cause confusion to readers looking for information on either topic - an X and Y-type situation (potentially engaging WP:R and D2).My reason for very weakly !voting to retarget social media forum is because I found at least one source using the phrase to refer to social media sites (e.g. - ), as well as the fact that an internet forum could arguably be seen as a type/subtopic of social media (whereas I don’t think internet forums are seen as a type/subtopic of social bookmarking, or vice versa). However, I couldn’t find sources that use the phrase social bookmarking forum in a similar way. (Also, the fact that social bookmarking forum may be an R with possibilities might also make it worth deleting per WP:R/WP:REDLINK.)Best, <sup style="letter-spacing:-.1em;color:#737373;font-family:monospace">user:  A smart kitten <sub style="color:#b842b8;font-family:monospace">meow  21:02, 5 December 2023 (UTC)
 * Retarget both to Internet forum. Internet forums are a medium of social media, which can be shown via swapping "internet" and "social media" and still communicating the same message. The key identifier in both titles is "forum", placed at the end to conclude both search terms. Without this distinction, "social media" is just a partial match for the full thing. The equivalent would be having "internet forum" target "internet"; it loses a significant part of the search term.
 * Due to the distinction of "forum" at the end of both titles, Internet forum is a much more distinct target than social media is, which is itself a very vague concept in 2023 that covers thousands of apps and websites. Specifying "forums" implies seeking the forum subset of social media, where Reddit is mentioned as an internet forum at the target page. To my understanding and history with, all forums are social media, but not all social media are forums. Utopes (talk / cont) 09:19, 6 December 2023 (UTC)

Recently created shortcut that hasn't been used anywhere. I'm created this RFD because I highly question the need for WP:SPECTRUM to point at a bot-dictionary entry about the very niche concept of the spectrum/threshold of usefulness, and cluttering that entry with a hatnote pointing at WP:AUTIST like was done here.

There is no deletion rationale here. I wouldn't terribly mind if it were retargeted to the same place WP:AUTIST goes (the place the hatnote referred to), but I'll just end up creating some other shortcut for that glossary item anyway, since I have use of one.

If SPECTRUM gets usurped to go to AUTIST, I'll probably go with something more obscure like WP:SPECUSE or something, so I don't end up right back in RfD again.  — SMcCandlish ☏ ¢ 😼  11:36, 20 December 2023 (UTC)
