 * While not directly mentioned with the surname, the character Moira mentioned at Smallville season 6, though only appears in that one episode. The character's name in full is listed at Lynda Carter and Superman (franchise), so I would suggest retarget to that episode description or to Lynda Carter's article, though leaning closer to the episode description as it does offer more details on this character and Carter's role than the other two sections do. Trailblazer101 (talk) 21:26, 10 April 2024 (UTC)
 *  Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.


 * Keep per Trailblazer101, as the character is mentioned at the target. Given the disambiguator it makes more sense to target the TV season article than the other suggested targets. Ivanvector (Talk/Edits) 08:48, 18 April 2024 (UTC)

 * Jeez → wiktionary:Special:Search/jeez (talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure:  ]

When I nominated this title in 2015 (Redirects for discussion/Log/2015 September 12), the result was "delete", even though I had suggested redirecting to the Wiktionary page, which existed when I created the discussion in 2015. Of course, this does not make this redirect eligible for WP:G4 since the redirect did not target Wiktionary back then, but no participants, besides myself, had voted for retargeting to Wiktionary. For this reason, I'm bringing this up for discussion to see if the redirect should be re-deleted, kept in its current form, or something else. (For consistency's sake, I support the previous consensus ... "delete".) Steel1943  (talk) 21:18, 10 April 2024 (UTC) Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, ✗  plicit  23:50, 17 April 2024 (UTC)
 * Keep; seems harmless enough and gets you to the right target. I'm unsure why Wiktionary lists "Jeez" as an alternate spelling of "Geez", and then turns around and defines "Geez" as a minced oath for "Jesus"-- the minced oath part is correct, but I'd think that "Jeez" would be the primary spelling, given it's closer to the spelling of "Jesus". Maybe "Geez" is older or something?Interestingly enough, Geez actually redirects to Ge'ez, aka Classical Ethiopian, with not a single mention of a minced oath (though it does hatnote to Geez (magazine).)

 * Delete - I'm most familiar with the term from the Deadpool films but none of our series of related articles mentions this, and it's not specific enough to this franchise for a R without mention. The phrase appears in Carrot and Stick, an episode of Better Call Saul, but doesn't describe what it is at all. Ivanvector (Talk/Edits) 08:43, 18 April 2024 (UTC)
 * Carrot and stick? I don't think reliable sources analyzed the title. Aaron Liu  (talk) 10:56, 18 April 2024 (UTC)

 * I luv u → Anitta's anal tattoo (talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure:  ]

With multiple pages on the I Love You page that spell love as "luv", someone's anal tattoo is certainly not the primary topic for a shortened version of the most common phrase in the English language. Utopes (talk / cont) 22:48, 17 April 2024 (UTC)

This isn't mentioned in the slightest in the target article. I assume it's a game quote but given the total lack of sourcing, a redirect such as this is confusing and should be deleted. Try Wikiquote instead. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 08:18, 17 April 2024 (UTC)

 * Extinct World → Adventure Time: Fionna and Cake (talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure:  ]

I noticed several redirects at RfD disambiguated with Extinct World - The Lich, BMO, Ice King, Gunter, etc., and wanted to know what this is. However, this too turned out to be a redirect which led to an episode which had no information about the term.

The episode plot has a link to Finn the Human and Jake the Dog which has a mention of extinction of all life, but this too is insufficient to justify a redirect like Extinct World which is a generic term (not considering the caps). Delete. Jay 💬 05:32, 17 April 2024 (UTC)


 * Per Jay. The name "Extinct World" is fan-dubbed and is not ever mentioned in the show; even if it was, I doubt the notability and necessity of the supposed redirect and it may too trivial. I believe the name is too general and it is totally possible that it can refer to something more notable. Delete. - George6VI (talk) 00:14, 18 April 2024 (UTC)

Created with the edit summary of "red". Might've been a solution to a red link at the time? No pages link to this title, and neither "fil" nor "ecosse" appear at the target article.

 * Comment the term is written in French, so if borrowed back into English, that would make sense if it originated in the French city of Lille (Lisle). This cotton thread is mercerised (gone through mercerisation), a process invented by John Mercer, someone of Scottish heritage . This "Fil d'Ecosse" == Scottish thread. Also seems to be used in Scottish cotton goods. So, the correct target would seem to be Cotton lisle. Cotton lisle needs updating to mention mercization  -- 65.92.247.66 (talk) 04:58, 10 April 2024 (UTC)
 * Retarget to Cotton lisle, where the term is at least mentioned, though that article could indeed do with being expanded. Also note that there is another redirect (with correct French capitalisation of the diacritic) created at the same time as this one and that should be kept in sync with it.

 * Factor through → Fundamental theorem on homomorphisms (talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure:  ]

Neither "factor" nor "through" are mentioned at the target article. Hypothetically this seems to be much more plausible as a redirect to Factoring or Factorization, but even then this may not be incredibly necessary for either... Utopes (talk / cont) 21:55, 9 April 2024 (UTC)

Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, <b style="color:blue; text-shadow:cyan 0.0em 0.0em 0.1em;">CycloneYoris</b> <b style="color:purple">talk!</b> 01:53, 17 April 2024 (UTC)
 * "Factoring through" is a mathematical English idiom for situations in which the Fundamental theorem on homomorphisms applies. See, e.g., , , , , ,  (one site but many users); it likely also appears in standard abstract algebra texts, e.g. Dummit and Foote, or Lang; and some quick Ctrl+F's show that Pete Clark's expositions use the term, although never with a clear definition.  It is certainly unfortunate that this usage does not appear on the current target, although I think this is a flaw in that page and not the redirect.
 * I do not think Factoring or Factorization are appropriate retargets. Those appear to mainly discuss decompositions as some sort of explicit product, which cannot in general be done for quotient objects (unless you count a short exact sequence as a "product").  Moreover, they focus on integers and polynomials.  If I have ever heard the phrase "factor through" applied to numbers, I do not remember it.  On the other hand, I may have heard distribution in polynomial arithmetic described that way.
 * A less surprising target might be, although I personally find that target less useful (for one thing, the phrase is hardly restricted to "category theory"; for another, the definition fails to make the connection to the Fundamental Theorem explicit).
