Michal JordanMichael Jordan

The result of the debate was converted to stub. Lenticel (talk) 06:20, 12 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect originally was created due to misspelling of Michael Jordan. The redirect article Michal Jordan may eventually exist to refer to hockey player that was recently drafted by the Carolina Hurricanes. While it is true that the redirect article can simply be modified to be about the hockey player if/when the player achieves notability and has his own article, several articles link to Michal Jordan related to the 2008 NHL Entry Draft.

  • Comment Currently there are several articles that point to the rfd article in question that were meant to refer to the hockey player, thus could cause confusion when it redirects to the basketball player. No article links to the rfd candidate in question that was meant for the basketball player. IMO, I don't find any use in keeping the misspelled article. -Pparazorback (talk) 00:08, 4 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Spellbound (computer game)(2)Spellbound (Beyond computer game)

The result of the debate was No consensus to delete, so retarget. Tikiwont (talk) 08:58, 18 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Obsolete redirect (no longer linked from any article); double redirect (target was moved); no non-trivial page history; not a plausible search term for the intended article -- Korax1214 (talk) 19:27, 3 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Profit! → List of fictional South Park species#Underpants Gnomes

The result of the debate was Re-targeted to Profit (disambiguation). -- JLaTondre (talk) 02:32, 22 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Originally directed into Underpants Gnomes (until it was recently altered to direct towards Profit). Falls under #7 of WP:RFD#DELETE - "redirect is a novel or very obscure synonym for an article name" Barkeep Chat | $ 18:10, 3 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Comment - I would argue that the phrase/word "Profit!" would not be considered notable per WP:NOTE, but instead WP:FANCRUFT. The "You can't handle the truth" phrase has a much stronger argument for notability due its deeper penetration into other media and the broader mainstream.

Counter-question - is the goal of wikipedia to keep the amount of (small) articles and redirects to a minimum? If so, I propose we just delete this article and get over with it. If not, then the point of redirecting it to profit is unnecessary -- the reason being that the exclamationmark becomes a typo and it needs to be deleted. Even though I still think keeping "Profit!" as it originally was is the best thing. One reason is that Wikipedias search engine is really bad at finding relevant searches, if I came over that phrase on the internet, I would probably search for it using wikipedia (because it's probably from popular culture) before i.e. Google. But, hey! That's how I do things ... —Preceding unsigned comment added by Eikern (talkcontribs) 15:24, 16 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Just redirect it there. There is no point arguing further - because this is the best alternative. (As well as adding the quote as a link maybe.)--Eikern (talk) 23:59, 20 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Frontal lobe disorderPsychopathy

The result of the debate was converted to article. Lenticel (talk) 06:22, 12 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Psychopathy is one very specific instance of a frontal lobe disorder; there are many others with Pick's disease and Frontal lobe epilepsy being good examples. The redirect is very misleading for anyone wanting to find out about disorders of the frontal lobe Anonymaus (talk) 16:30, 3 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

/yugioh → Yu-Gi-Oh!

The result of the debate was Delete. Lenticel (talk) 06:21, 12 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Semi-useless redirect — the leading slash interacts badly with search and linking, so actually using it is not as straightforward as it appears. No explanation of why this particular text string is a useful reference to the target. I suspect, however, that it's a reference to a website or filename somewhere — quite probably an unimportant fansite. Gavia immer (talk) 14:37, 3 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
