- Samurai Vampire Bikers From Hell → Scott Shaw (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: //delete ]
Suggested deleation as this redirect goes to the director of this film's WP page where there is no additional information about the film Chinanski (talk) 22:32, 9 July 2020 (UTC)
- Note the redirect was not listed here correctly and had not been tagged, I've fixed both. Thryduulf (talk) 22:55, 9 July 2020 (UTC)
- Actually, the redirect nominated was Samurai Vampire Bikers From Hell, which was correctly tagged but not properly added here (the lowercase version was used as the section title). Both redirect are now listed here. Thryduulf (talk) 23:01, 9 July 2020 (UTC)
- Keep The sequence of events that led here is an article was created at the title Samurai Vampire Bikers From Hell in 2006. In 2014 that article was moved to Samurai Vampire Bikers from Hell (lowercase "from"), then in 2019 the article was nominated for deletion, which resulted in a consensus to merge to Scott Shaw. That merge was done, and while there is not much information that survived the merge it is still present in the article so the redirects need to be kept for attribution purposes ({{R from move}} and {{R from merge}}). Thryduulf (talk) 23:09, 9 July 2020 (UTC)
- Keep. Mentioned in the article with two citations, so anyone following the redirect will find useful information. Such redirects can also be used to populate categories. Narky Blert (talk) 07:22, 10 July 2020 (UTC)
- Comment. Samurai Vampire Bikers From Hell should be tagged {{R from other capitalisation}}, which will make it {{unprintworthy}}. Narky Blert (talk) 21:28, 11 July 2020 (UTC)
- Keep. Totally appropriate and useful for the title of a work to redirect to its creator if there isn't enough information for an article. --Spasemunki (talk) 08:36, 10 July 2020 (UTC)

This is a redirect under an erroneous title created by my error during a page move and is not needed. The page has been correctly moved to 1934 United Airlines Boeing 247 crash. Mdewman6 (talk) 19:45, 9 July 2020 (UTC)

- The result of the discussion was soft redirect to Wiktionary:thinking cap. (non-admin closure) Steel1943 (talk) 16:00, 25 July 2020 (UTC)
- Thinking cap → Smoking cap (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: //delete ]
Recommend deletion unless a better target can be found. The target article no longer claims the term as a synonym and a WP:BEFORE search failed to find any evidence of such. SpinningSpark 14:23, 9 July 2020 (UTC)
- Soft redirect to Wiktionary wikt:thinking cap. All I can find on Wikipedia is partial title matches like Thinking Cap Quiz Bowl, partial title matches for synonyms (Six Thinking Hats) and specific examples of thinking caps/people who use them (e.g. Thinker (DC Comics)) but nothing that would even make it on to a disambiguation page. It's clearly a useful search term though, especially for non-native speakers encountering specific examples. Thryduulf (talk) 15:33, 9 July 2020 (UTC)
- Soft redirect per Thryduulf. signed, Rosguill talk 23:03, 16 July 2020 (UTC)

- Delete. It's also Indonesian but that has no significant affinity to Spain/Spanish either (Indonesia was a Dutch colony). I wondered if it was used in English as a misspelling/misunderstanding of Español but I can't find any evidence of this. Thryduulf (talk) 13:50, 9 July 2020 (UTC)

There is no French analogue of Scottish Gaelic. Perhaps it means Gaulish language. Soumya-8974 talk contribs subpages 12:01, 9 July 2020 (UTC)
- Delete almost all uses I can find are about translating between Gaelic and French, Gaelic-medium French language course(s), Gaelic football in France or something related to roof tiles that I can't figure out. My first thought was a misspelling/misunderstanding of Gallic or meaning the Breton language but I haven't found anything related to them or to the nom's suggestion of Gaulish language.

- It is still useless. --Soumya-8974 talk contribs subpages 12:48, 9 July 2020 (UTC)
- Delete. Is the 'l' an abbreviation for "language" (in which case the current target is alright) or does it refer to the "l" sound of French (in which case the target should be an anchor within French phonology)? Either way, it's implausible. – Uanfala (talk) 15:29, 14 July 2020 (UTC)

Ambiguous. Could also means Occitan, Norman, or other languages spoken in France. Therefore, retarget to Languages of France. Soumya-8974 talk contribs subpages 11:58, 9 July 2020 (UTC)

Not mentioned at target, and could also refer to an E number. 1234qwer1234qwer4 (talk) 11:42, 9 July 2020 (UTC)
- Retarget to E number, which identifies E384 as isopropyl citrate (redlinked). Tag as {{R with possibilities}}, which would make the circular redirect in E number permissible (rather than wildly misleading, as it currently is). Narky Blert (talk) 12:03, 9 July 2020 (UTC)
- Retarget as well, because right now it is more useful pointing to E number (given that an E number assignment to isopropyl citrate actually exists) than to E series of preferred numbers. If the E384 series for resistors will be officially introduced in the future, this can still be changed into a disambiguation page again. --Matthiaspaul (talk) 13:01, 9 July 2020 (UTC)

Suggest retargeting to Google Pixel as title implies a more general topic.

I still don't understand why this redirect was created if there is absolutely no trace of any hurricane named "Henriette" on the 2001 Pacific hurricane season article. I strongly support deletion since there's no reason for this redirect to exist and it was obviously created in error. CycloneYoris talk! 06:56, 9 July 2020 (UTC)
- Delete; no such named storm. Hurricane Henriette exists as a disambiguation page for anyone who needs it, implausible that anyone would be searching with (2001) disambiguation. wjematherplease leave a message... 09:13, 9 July 2020 (UTC)
- Keep, possibly speedily given how soon the previous discussion ended. Hurricane is a very plausible misnomer for tropical storms. Redirects don't have to be technically accurate so long as they are not misleading or confusing, and I don't think someone using this redirect would be confused or disappointed where they end up. This particular storm was "strong" for a tropical storm, and it was closely related to and interacted with Hurricane Gil. For usage outside of Wikipedia, here is one example. -- Tavix (talk) 17:13, 9 July 2020 (UTC)
- But that was exactly how I discovered this, I looked it up on the search bar and was disappointed when I found out it was only a tropical storm; that’s the reason why I feel so motivated for nominating this redirect. Though I agree the storm did merge with Hurricane Gil and it is sort of plausible because of that. CycloneYoris talk! 20:06, 9 July 2020 (UTC)
- However, because of this redirect you were able to easily find out the proper status of the storm in question, which is a good reason for the redirect to exist. -- Tavix (talk) 21:36, 9 July 2020 (UTC)
- I agree with you on that. Still, I think this redirect is kind of misleading and I want to prevent the occasional reader from any sort of confusion. CycloneYoris talk! 23:02, 9 July 2020 (UTC)
- Confusion is unlikely given that the reader will be taken to a page that will educate them about the situation, something a redlink cannot do. Thryduulf (talk) 23:11, 9 July 2020 (UTC)

- Keep per Tavix. A very plausible misnomer, misunderstanding or misremembering so a very plausible search term. However correct the section target to "Tropical Storm Henriette". Thryduulf (talk) 17:30, 9 July 2020 (UTC)
- Keep per Tavix. A plausible title. Redirects are cheap. Natg 19 (talk) 19:05, 9 July 2020 (UTC)
Retarget to Hurricane Henriette. Keeping this redirect will be very confusing for many people. For the same caveat, we do not redirect Lorentz to Lorentz transformation.--Soumya-8974 talk contribs subpages 13:11, 11 July 2020 (UTC)- Keep per above. Redirects like this are cheap n harmless. --Soumya-8974 talk contribs subpages 13:13, 11 July 2020 (UTC)
- Keep but amend to the correct subheading. We have many redirects from misspellings and misnomers. It is more helpful to send the reader to the place they are probably looking for than to refuse to serve the article until they learn the proper terminology. If a user has typed the 2001 disambiguator, or picked it from the drop down list, then they are looking for a storm in 2001, not the disambiguation page. I do think that users should be given better visibility that they are being redirected from a misspelling/misnomer, but that is a much wider problem to address.

Not a plausible alternate title of this album. The name itself has been used multiple times in reference to the album's lead single, Living in the Promiseland, but never the album itself. Jalen Folf (talk) 03:32, 9 July 2020 (UTC)
- Retarget to Promised Land (disambiguation) as {{R from incomplete disambiguation}}. That page includes The Promised Land (Del McCoury Band album) and The Promised Land (Sagol 59 album), as well as some near-matches. Narky Blert (talk) 12:11, 9 July 2020 (UTC)

- Retarget to Promised Land (disambiguation)#Albums per above, there's multiple albums with both variations of the title, and I can also see "The Promised Land" as a plausible misrendering of "Promised Land." Regards, SONIC678 22:29, 9 July 2020 (UTC)

No indication that the 1934 film "The Wandering Jew" was ever called "The Eternal Jew" See RM at Talk:The Eternal Jew (1940 film) Beyond My Ken (talk) 02:50, 9 July 2020 (UTC)
- Support (came here from RM), no indication this is used for this film.--Bob not snob (talk) 06:33, 9 July 2020 (UTC)
- Delete. It's a different film. The Eternal Jew (1933) was directed by de:George Roland, and The Wandering Jew (1933} by Maurice Elvey. I can't find the alleged 1934 film. Narky Blert (talk) 13:30, 9 July 2020 (UTC)
- Delete per nomination. This redirect misleads users regarding both the title and the year of production / distribution. As indicated directly above by Narky Blert, the only other film titled The Eternal Jew was a 1933 Yiddish-language production filmed in New York with the star of that era's American Yiddish cinema, Cantor Leibele Waldman. Unlike same year's British-made Conrad Veidt vehicle, The Wandering Jew (1933 film), the 1933 American Yiddish film has no Wikipedia entry and only receives mention in the filmography of the cantor's article. —Roman Spinner (talk • contribs) 02:44, 10 July 2020 (UTC)
- If anyone is interested in making an article on the Yiddish film, the AFI catalog entry is here. Beyond My Ken (talk) 20:12, 11 July 2020 (UTC)
- Keep. No practical or policy-based reason to delete, potentially breaking links we can never find. It's very flattering to think that a hypothetical reader will conclude that, because we have a redirect from this title to the article in question, we must know that the film was really made in 1934. But we're not a reliable source so every Wikipedian would know otherwise. (;-> And most readers will read the article not just the redirect title. Andrewa (talk) 06:46, 15 July 2020 (UTC)
- Delete. I believe the policy-based reason is #5 here, "The redirect makes no sense". It does not make sense to have a redirect to a completely different film. Natg 19 (talk) 01:37, 16 July 2020 (UTC)
