- June Smith → North Tyneside (links · history · stats) [ Closure: //delete ]
"June Smith" was created in 2006 as a stub about a non-notable councilwoman on the North Tyneside Metropolitan Borough Council, to with she was one of the 60 members elected in 2004. "June Smith" was eventually redirected to North Tyneside, an article on the town, which does not mention the subject (or any other former borough representatives). There is a notable June Smith in the encyclopedia, former Illinois Supreme Court Justice June C. Smith. I would redirect this to either North Tyneside Metropolitan Borough Council election, 2004 (the only page to mention this "June Smith") or to June C. Smith. bd2412 T 15:26, 4 July 2015 (UTC)
- Retarget to June C. Smith as she is the clear WP:PRIMARYTOPIC. -- Tavix (talk) 19:04, 4 July 2015 (UTC)
- Retarget per Tavix -- 67.70.32.20 (talk) 03:25, 5 July 2015 (UTC)
- Was the other person regularly known as June C Smith because if not it would make sense to move that article to June Smith.--64.229.165.154 (talk) 05:54, 5 July 2015 (UTC)
- No, because it looks like "June C. Smith" is his WP:COMMONNAME. -- Tavix (talk) 18:10, 6 July 2015 (UTC)

- FunnyJunk.com → The Oatmeal and FunnyJunk legal dispute (links · history · stats) [ Closure: //delete ]
The fact that FunnyJunk is create-protected while this redirect exists is unnecessarily astonishing, as the legal case is not solely about FunnyJunk. I don't oppose the salting, as FunnyJunk is unlikely to gain significant notability barring unforeseen controversy. However, if new controversy does occur to justify an article, the redirect might hinder creation and searching of said article (similar to WP:R#DELETE #1 or 2).
Alternatively, one could unsalt FunnyJunk and create it as a redirect identical to this one, but I understand that may not be preferred at this time. SoledadKabocha (talk) 05:41, 4 July 2015 (UTC)
- Comment from nominator: Perhaps I should clarify why this redirect is "astonishing" (maybe not the best word), as my logic may not have been entirely consistent as stated.
FunnyJunk.com would be a valid{{R from domain name}}
to FunnyJunk if that article existed, but it is salted. I had originally visited the redirect with an intention to add such RCAT and was "astonished" to find out that its actual target was not an equivalent meaning, being a legal case that involved other parties. --SoledadKabocha (talk) 18:28, 10 July 2015 (UTC)

WP:NOTTRAVEL - TheChampionMan1234 04:41, 4 July 2015 (UTC)
- Delete Agree. WP:NOTTRAVEL. --Mr. Guye (talk) 01:44, 5 July 2015 (UTC)
- Safeguard the attributions - this page contains merged content so outright deletion is not possible without one of the standard methods of safeguarding attributions being adopted.Just Chilling (talk) 01:45, 11 July 2015 (UTC)
- Keep and refine target to Auckland#Famous sights. WP:NOTTRAVEL is an article guideline and is not relevant to redirects. This is clearly a standard 'R to section' and no valid policy basis for deletion has been cited. Just Chilling (talk) 01:52, 11 July 2015 (UTC)
