WYPX-LP

The result of the discussion was Delete. Ruslik_Zero 09:04, 28 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

There has never, as far as I know, been a station known as "WYPX-LP", much less one associated with WYPX-TV. WCQuidditch 22:37, 16 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Tracie Washington

The result of the discussion was Keep. Potentially useful redirect—lack of notability is not enough to delete a useful redirect. In addition, deletion will not change anything, because the search will lead to the same article anyway. Ruslik_Zero 11:00, 28 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - highly improbable search term that directs to a barely notable person. Otto4711 (talk) 22:18, 16 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

  • So someone searching for the New Orleans director of sanitation who doesn't know the name of the NO director of sanitation is going to know the name of and search for the NO director of sanitation's lawyer?! Otto4711 (talk) 00:10, 17 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • ...why would you assume that someone that doesn't know the director's name would know the lawyer's? EVula // talk // // 02:41, 17 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • I don't assume that someone who doesn't know the director's name would know the lawyer's name. "Gosh, I can't think of the name of that obscure political functionary from New Orleans, but isn't her lawyer Tracie Washington?" Unlikely in the extreme. Not gonna happen. Otto4711 (talk) 03:46, 17 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • And what of the scenario where the person knows both names?
    Keep in mind we're talking about just a redirect. I really can't see why it's an issue, given that the redirect goes to a perfectly valid (and, more importantly, properly sourced) section. EVula // talk // // 04:03, 17 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Split "Tracie Washington" to a new article on her?
  • [Delete?—]No, not yet - Tracie Washington is Veronica White's attorney. White speaks through Washington. Washington acts on behalf of White. So splitting the article now (2009 June) is not necessary and might be confusing. At present the relationship is best handled by an article on White serving as the target of a redirect from Washington. If at some later date the facts of Tracie Washington alone, especially facts unrelated to her serving as the attorney for White, should grow, then she should be split into a selfstanding article. We are (and she is) not there yet. Rammer (talk) 03:38, 10 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Michael Jordan eating at McDonald's

The result of the discussion was Speedy Delete under G7. EVula // talk // // 22:41, 16 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - nonsense redirect made as a joke in response to a DRV. Probably speediable as an "implausible misnomer". Otto4711 (talk) 21:20, 16 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

  • No need to apologize. I like a good joke redirect as much as the next guy (I once redirected Cowsay when it was a redlink to Moo). Can authors request speedy deletion of redirects? Otto4711 (talk) 22:28, 16 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
I'll request a speedy on it. --William S. Saturn (talk) 22:39, 16 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Alara - (NWN 2)

The result of the discussion was delete. –BLACK FALCON (TALK) 18:48, 24 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I originally proposed this article for deletion, and it was redirected. The problem is, I can't even confirm the existence of a Neverwinter Nights 2 module related to Shards of Alara, so this redirect seems pointless. It is an impossible search term (IMO), both because of the abbreviation ("NWN 2") and the fact that the expansion's existence cannot be verified (at least not with a multiple-page long Google search). "Shards of Alara" is, more or less, completely unrelated to Neverwinter Nights 2, I doubt that there would be an official crossover, and right now the article that was here (and now the remainder in the form of this redirect) is probably either WP:CRYSTAL or WP:HOAX, and the article that was here certainly failed WP:V. –Drilnoth (T • C • L) 04:07, 16 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect from WP space to user space. Ten Pound Hammer, his otters and a clue-bat • (Many ottersOne batOne hammer) 02:53, 16 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep See the previous RfD for this exact same redirect. ~ Amory (usertalkcontribs) 03:06, 16 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
