This is a list of redirects that have been proposed for deletion or other action on July 3, 2009
Redirect should be deleted because most bots will not recognize "nobot" they look for "nobots". Thus it could erroneously lead to people using this and unwanted bots still touching the page. –xenotalk 16:12, 3 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
((bots)) and ((nobots)) are part of the voluntary bot exclusion system; in particlar, placing ((nobots)) on a page tells compliant bots that they should not edit that page. This has absolutely nothing to do with the contents of either template, compliant bots just search the page's wikitext for the specific text "((bots))" or "((nobots))" (or the same with certain parameters as specified in the template documentation). Since "((nobot))" (without the "s") is not one of these two special names, bots should and will completely ignore it. But the existence of the redirect can confuse users into thinking it would work, as happened in the case leading to this discussion, so this redirect should be deleted.
This may fall under G6, or could be interpreted as a "redirect to an invalid target" under G8 since redirecting to that target does not serve the intended purpose. Anomie⚔ 16:30, 3 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
