• Victor D. Hadnot → Christian science fiction (links to redirect • history • stats) 

Possibly created as a placeholder for recreation of article which was speedily deleted yesterday (G11/G12). It redirects to Christian science fiction which does not mention this person. He is an author in this genre, but would be unlikely to meet notability guidelines as he appears to be self-published [1]. Cassandra 73 (talk) 22:38, 7 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

NB - author has since redirected this to African american writers, initially wanted it to redirect to both this and Christian Science fiction [2] (not sure how that would work). I think it should probably be deleted, unlikely many people will be searching for this non-notable author.   pablo_hablo. 22:34, 7 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

• Grandfather of India → Swami Dayananda Saraswati (links to redirect • history • stats) 

Recommend delete per [3]. This article was a fork, a copyvio, and now a redirect. I think the redirect is very POVish and the target article doesn't have enough sources to merit the redirect. NeilN ^{talk to me} 19:01, 7 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

• Strong keep You seem to be missing the point of redirects. A reader might conceivably know the "Grandfather of India" phrase but not who it applied to. The redirect would get them to the correct article. The fact that it has had a contentious edit history is irrelevant. -Arb. (talk) 22:23, 7 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Well, perhaps not the correct article. Here are sources describing another person as the grandfather of India [4], [5]. The current target may be known as "Rashtrapitamah" among his supporters. "Grandfather of India" is a translation. --NeilN ^{talk to me} 22:42, 7 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete The redirect should be deleted per WP:V, WP:SOAPBOX, and WP:HOAX. Let me explain:
  1. There is no reliable source that calls Dayanand as "Rashtrapitamah" or that calls him "Grandfather of India".
  2. The article lists a source titled, "Rajender Sethi Rashtra Pitamah Swami Dayanand Saraswati (MRSethi Educational Trust Chandigarh, 2006)", which uses Rashtrapitamah in its title. I have not been able to confirm the existence, let alone the reliability, of this publication outside wikipedia and its mirrors. Worldcat doesn't find the book or author in any library holdings. Given the name of the author and publisher, it is almost surely a self-published (or possibly non-existent) source.
  3. "Grandfather of India" is a translation of the presumed (and unverified) title, Rashtrapitamah, and wikipedia should not be in the business of reifying such translated titles through redirects. Furthermore it is the wrong translation. "Rashtrapitamah" correctly translates to "Grandfather of the nation" (cf, Father of the Nation, which are recognition of a person's contributions in obtaining nationhood for a country and are rarely, if ever, substitutable by "Fathers of America", "Father of India" etc.)
  4. While, as I said, no reliable sources for the title in the redirect, there is a campaign on some Arya Samaj related webforums to spread the meme. For example see this post, and note that its author, Rajender Sethi, is the author the dubious source being cited on wikipedia.
  5. It's instructive to see how this meme started on wikipedia. It was added to the Dayananda article in February by User:Rajender Sethi. At first the sentence was "'In fact Swami Dayanand rightfully deserves to be called as" Grandfather of India. Later it was changed to the claim that he is called that, and a citation to a dubious reference written by "Rajender Sethi" added. This appears to be simply a one person quest to spread a hoax title on and off-wikipedia.

  In short, wikipedia is being used as a soapbox here, to create a non-existent title for Dayanand Saraswati. Abecedare (talk) 23:59, 7 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete, patent nonsense /hoax. No reliable sources or verifiability. Dadabhai Naoroji is more commonly referred to as "the grand old man of India".

• Comment From the above impassioned discussion it sounds as though there is a real need for this page either as an explanation (summary of the discussion above) or as a disanbiguation page.

• Boa Constructor → Python (programming language) (links to redirect • history • stats) 

Delete Does not comply with WP:R's list of redirect purposes. The closest applicable purpose would be "Sub-topics or other topics which are described or listed within a wider article.", but Boa Constructor is not even mentioned in the Python (programming language) article and in any case is too tangential/trivial in the context of Python to merit redirecting there. Cybercobra (talk) 12:45, 7 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

• It seems to me that if someone enters "Boa Constructor" in the search box intending to find something about the Python programming language, and there's no article titled Boa Constructor, then it should redirect, and possibly be tagged with the "R with possibilities" template. Michael Hardy (talk) 13:21, 7 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

• Comment - A better redirect is to wxPython, which is what Boa Constructor more specifically supports; but that article doesn't mention it either (at least not yet; I may update it this weekend to do so). Actually, Boa Constrictor is worthy of its own article, but the most recent version did not make sufficient claims to notability to survive WP:Articles for deletion/Boa Constructor.

• Asa Seeley → West Baltimore (MARC station) (links to redirect • history • stats) 

Per this AFD from a year ago, this was to be a redirect to West Baltimore (MARC station)#Presidential assassination attempt. However, with the perspective of time, discussion at Talk:West Baltimore (MARC station) shows there is consensus to not include the Asa Seeley information in the article. Therefore, the redirect should be deleted, as it is now useless and confusing. There was also an AN or ANI thread about this a while ago, which I haven’t found but will hunt for. Floquenbeam (talk) 17:22, 30 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Per Sebwite below, I'll change my comment to: keep redirect but change target to List of United States presidential assassination attempts and plots#George W. Bush. While I'm not 100% convinced this was an actual assassination attempt or that the material belongs there either, since there has actually been information about Seeley there for a month, it is not confusing, and the obvious target. --Floquenbeam (talk) 13:10, 8 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep - There is already consensus not to have a standalone article. I agree about that. But there is sourced information on the subject, and I am skeptical as to whether the information should have been removed from that article.

  • It meets criteria #2 of WP:R#DELETE; it is confusing. If there is nothing in the target article about Seeley, then a redirect from Asa Seeley is confusing. The only reason to keep in #1-5 of WP:R#KEEP that I believe applies is the contribution history issue, but than can be better handled by one of the methods Flatscan proposes on his talk page (see immediately below). --Floquenbeam (talk) 23:38, 3 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
    • It very much meets #5 in WP:R#KEEP, which says "Someone finds them useful. Hint: If someone says they find a redirect useful, they probably do. You might not find it useful—this is not because the other person is a liar, but because you browse Wikipedia in different ways." The history of this article and redirect, and the page to which it redirects, is actually described in one of the policy/guideline pages as an example of notability, so in this case, it is very much useful and should be kept.
    • It meets #1 of WP:R#KEEP, which says "They have a potentially useful page history." Though the current version does not seem to be used, the previous versions indeed are.
    • It also should be kept per criteria #3 in WP:R#KEEP and WP:MANYLINKS. This is a list of pages that link to this redirect. Sebwite (talk) 01:32, 7 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

• Retarget as per Sebsite below. I'm a dope - I even linked to that article/section in my delete !vote! -- PhantomSteve/talk|contribs\ 19:53, 8 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

• Criterion #2 mentions if it would cause confusion with another article (the example is Adam Smith vs. Andrew Smith). But there is no article with which there is to be confused here. It is not like "Asa Seeley" vs. "Andrew Seeley." It may, instead, be worthy redirecting it to List of United States presidential assassination attempts and plots#George W. Bush if it is mentioned there. Sebwite (talk) 22:00, 7 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

As for the non-mainspace pages, they may seem worthless to them, if you are not the one who has worked on them. But then again, that is when you recall criterion #5 of R#KEEP, about finding it useful. Once again, it states, "If someone says they find a redirect useful, they probably do. You might not find it useful—this is not because the other person is a liar, but because you browse Wikipedia in different ways."

• Retarget as per Sebwite. The only problem I see with that is someone will come along and link Asa Seeley in that article, making a round-trip, but that is small fry. Si Trew (talk) 10:38, 8 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
• Retarget as SimonTrew. -- Eraserhead1 <talk> 17:31, 8 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Unnecessary redirect all created by user MJfan9 in 18 minutes. Those redirect are not probable redirect and they link to articles that are already very easy to access. I ask for deletion as they are unnecessary. Stroppolo^talk 02:06, 7 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete all but consider User Block as a potential redirect, it could be helpful to newbies. However, it might however just be better served by the search... NativeForeigner ^Talk/_Contribs
