Clearly misleading redirect, redirecting from a notable specific topic to a general article. Poverty by country is notable, and the current redirect is misleadingly blue linking the entry in Category:Poverty by country series.

- Edit: the same newbie user has created a series of misleading redirects like this: Poverty in Spain , Poverty in Italy, Poverty in Russia, Poverty in Latin America, Poverty in Asia, Poverty in Europe, Poverty in North America. Please delete them all. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 21:26, 15 January 2013 (UTC)
- Note when nominating redirects for discussion you must explicitly tag all of them, I have done this for you. It is also best to explicitly list them all using the {{rrfd2m}} template as I have done above. Thryduulf (talk) 14:04, 16 January 2013 (UTC)
- Delete per WP:REDLINK unless better targets for any exist. I haven't found any yet but I've not been completely thorough thus far. Thryduulf (talk) 14:04, 16 January 2013 (UTC)
- Actually, on further investigation these turn out to be the creation of one of user:Bowei Huang 2's sockpuppets. Bowie Haung 2 is indeffinitely blocked for disruptive editing regarding redirects. Accordingly I'm speedy deleting them all per WP:CSD#G5. Thryduulf (talk) 14:22, 16 January 2013 (UTC)
