Not mentioned at target. * Pppery * _{it has begun...} 21:53, 19 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

While I'm the creator, I'm not the "originator". I created it per a WP:AN request:

Requesting redirect of epic fail guy and Epic Fail Guy to Guy Fawkes mask as per that article and Wikipedia:Requested articles/Arts and entertainment/Internet and tech culture. CMBJ   10:09, 22 May 2013 (UTC)
  There are no incoming links to those; what usefulness would they have? In addition, can you clarify what has changed since the most recent consensus that lead to the deletion of the redirect? Salvidrim!· ✉ 10:17, 22 May 2013 (UTC)
    It is not unreasonable, given the subject's popularity, to assume that users will manually seek out an article at that title. As for the above discussion, it pertained to an inappropriate redirect that lacked any supporting content, whereas this target explicitly mentions the subject. CMBJ 10:44, 22 May 2013 (UTC)
    (EC) The request to remove the redirect from EFG -> 4chan was based on no mention in the article. EFG is mentioned at the guy fawkes mask article as part of its section on Anonymous usage of the mask, and its origins. The only redirect to 4chan kept in that discussion was one that was used in the 4chan article. No comment on how useful this is to have currently. Although Anonymous is a bit more noteworthy since 2009, I am surprised there is no mention at that article, as while EFG isnt notable in itself as a 4chan meme (there are loads of them) it is relevant to the Anonymous group.

      Created. Why couldn't you do it? Is there some blacklist that prevented you? Nyttend (talk) 22:06, 22 May 2013 (UTC)
        I didn't happen to notice what exactly was precluding its creation, but without the admin flag it definitely wasn't happening. CMBJ 04:34, 23 May 2013 (UTC)

(Probably the issue was "Epic Fail", which I can imagine being common in attack pages, and very uncommon in good-faith use.) User:CMBJ hasn't edited in nearly a year, so you're not likely to get any further explanation from him. Nyttend (talk) 12:39, 20 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

You're right about the issue: "Epic Fail" is on the title blacklist for pretty much the reason you suspected. I didn't notify you of this discussion since I could see that, and I didn't notify CMBJ either since it's my practice not to notify long-gone users. None of this is relevant now, though. * Pppery * _{it has begun...} 16:13, 20 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Pppery, no worries; I don't mind not being notified. I knew there was a chance you'd found this already, but I wanted to provide it in case you hadn't, and I knew that other RFD participants would benefit. Nyttend (talk) 20:49, 22 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete: Dead meme, not mentioned (and shouldn't be mentioned) in the article, and someone searching for "Epic Fail Guy" is probably looking for that meme, not a page on the mask. voorts (talk/contributions) 01:54, 26 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

• Eclipse.org → Eclipse (software)  (talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure: //delete ] 

Probably Eclipse Foundation is a more precise target. 1234qwer1234qwer4 21:39, 19 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy yes, change it. Perhaps back in 2005 this could have required some discussion regarding whether the foundation or their flagship software suite was a more appropriate redirect, but today the website in question is clearly about the Eclipse Foundation, which administers hundreds of projects other than just Eclipse (software), so changing the redirect is clearly appropriate. Besides which, there are only two inbound links to this redirect, so the change is not a big deal. Also only one of those needs fixing for the change, and I've fixed it already. I appreciate that you took the time to put this up for discussion before changing the redirect, but I don't think it was strictly necessary.

  How is this redirect different from a redirect from level or stage to level (video gaming)? MSMST1543 (talk) 06:31, 14 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  It's not at all similar to that redirect (but WP:OTHERSTUFF would apply even if it were) - this redirect is unambiguous, mentioned at the target and is the name for the subject in a relevant local language. The other redirect had WP:XY issues and could refer to multiple different types of level and/or multiple different types of stage. Thryduulf (talk) 09:52, 15 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

• Comment: Before everyone else piles on the delete bandwagon, I want to mention that there is indeed more to this redirect than it first appears. The redirect was initially created as a redirect to 9gag. According to some posts on 9gag (hardly a paragon of reliability), it is supposedly rumored that someone usernamed "I just farted" is also the owner of 9gag. He also happens to be a notable person, namely Ray Chan (businessman). That said, I can't confirm this factoid, so even if it were true, I'd be pretty happy with deletion.

A quote not mentioned at the target article. It was suggested at a past RfD that this is a significant quote that people have wrote about externally. Great! It should remain as a red link to encourage article creation, or cited in the page if viable. In the meantime, for the last X years we have had zero content about this quote, so there doesn't need to be a redirect if we don't have anything further to say besides "it exists".

• Open Access Directory → Simmons University  (talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure: //delete ] 

No mention of anything being "open access", or a "directory" at the target page. Currently, this redirect is not helpful as people who might be looking for this directory are instead taken to information about the university instead of information about the directory that they specified.

• Delete Most of the incoming links are not related to the university, suggesting there is an opportunity to create a new article here. - Presidentman talk · contribs (Talkback) 02:11, 19 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

• One World (imprint) → Random House  (talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure: //delete ] 

No mention of this imprint at the target article, anyone specifying this would not receive any content about their search term. Utopes _{(talk / cont)} 01:29, 19 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep. There's no mention of the term at the target article, which is why {{R to article without mention}} was added to the redirect. There are several incoming mainspace links that would be broken if the redirect were deleted. That alone seems enough to make the redirect useful, which satisfies WP:RKEEP #5. —Sangdeboeuf (talk) 01:41, 19 April 2024 (UTC) (See new comment below. 01:42, 21 April 2024 (UTC))[reply]

There's 7 mainspace links sans the dab page, only in refs and infoboxes. Why couldn't these be replaced with piped links instead? Seven isn't several unless one is David Jelinsky, so it shouldn't be too bad to replace, and doesn't seem to be the end-all-be-all for keeping or deleting. For anyone that actually is searching for the imprint specifically, we have nothing for, so the existence of links can be avoided by linking to the main Random House article, allowing to prioritize useful redirects that are able to actually provide aid to readers. (There also might be a discrepancy with Oneworld Publications, but the link is unclear to me. Utopes _{(talk / cont)} 02:14, 19 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Using a piped link such as [[Random House|One World]] would provide no more information to the reader than linking via the redirect. {{R to article without mention}} is currently used on hundreds of pages besides this one. I just don't see the harm in such a redirect, and it's useful for linking. —Sangdeboeuf (talk) 12:38, 20 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

There's no need to prioritize any redirect, since redirects are cheap. The existence of this one doesn't prevent the creation of any other, or searching via different keywords. —Sangdeboeuf (talk) 01:07, 21 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

And not to be pedantic, but several actually means "more than two but not many". So you are effectively saying there are many incoming mainspace links, which bolsters the "keep" argument. —Sangdeboeuf (talk) 01:12, 21 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I just added an entry under Penguin Random House#Random House Publishing Group, so I think the best course now is to retarget to that page and section. —Sangdeboeuf (talk) 01:42, 21 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

• Non-crypto Public Chain → Blockchain  (talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure: //delete ] 

No mentions of "non-crypto" or "public chain" appear at the target page for Blockchain. It's worth noting that the creator of this article-ish was blocked for WP:UPE later that year (2022). Utopes _{(talk / cont)} 00:58, 19 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

"one word: decentralized personal server. take back your data"

delete per "what does that even mean?". the "article" was moved from draftspace with what seems to be no evidence of ever being accepted, and consisted almost solely of incomprehensible cryptobro jargon. not actually entirely sure that last part is a valid basis cogsan _{(nag me) (stalk me)} 12:10, 23 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

that's part of the joke from the line's source. "decentralized personal server" isn't one word, doesn't actually mean anything, and sure as hell doesn't need to involve biocurrency i mean cryptocurrency

with that in mind, i guess retargeting it to server would be technically a bit less wrong, but still not correct enough to avoid deletion cogsan _{(nag me) (stalk me)} 20:07, 23 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
