The following is an archived discussion concerning one or more redirects. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on an appropriate discussion page (such as the redirect's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this section.

The result of the discussion was speedy delete per CSD R2: Cross-namespace redirect from mainspace to userspace. --Taelus (talk) 17:51, 12 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

• IEEE 802.3az → User:Electron9/IEEE 802.3az (links to redirect • history • stats) 

Delete, a redirect from mainspace to userspace. The page IEEE 802.3az was originally created as an article in mainspace. I prodded it earlier today. The creator then did a page-move (rather than just copying) of the page to his user-space, to User:Electron9/IEEE 802.3az. It is, of course, OK for him to work on improving the text in his userspace. However, the redirect itself should be deleted per item 5 in WP:RFD#DELETE as a cross-namespace redirect. Nsk92 (talk) 23:13, 11 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

• Speedy Delete, tagged it with R2. Mainspace to Userspace is never allowed. Could also fall under G6 as a housekeeping clean-up after a move. --Taelus (talk) 15:37, 12 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Suggest deletion: Non-notable co-writer of a few songs on this album. Redirect only exists because of one editors failed 'vanity project' Memphisto (talk) 21:05, 11 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

• Bob dole memorial ocean → Pacific Ocean (links to redirect • history • stats) 

Nominating "Bob dole memorial ocean" for deletion, this makes no sense whatsoever and the only google hit I get for the literal string is a comment on the wiki redirect Usrnme h8er (talk · contribs) 13:19, 11 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete Completely pointless redirect made by user with only two edits, the other of which is also pointless and concerns the Pacific Ocean. For what it is worth, Google now gives 101 hits, every one of which refers directly or indirectly to this Wikipedia redirect. JamesBWatson (talk) 16:28, 12 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

• Yogesh Atal, Sociologist → Yogesh Atal (links to redirect • history • stats) 

Redirect left over from a page move. The article doesn't need a "(sociologist)" disambiguation, which makes this a relatively unlikely search term. Lәo_(βǃʘʘɱ) 04:44, 11 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete as violations of Wikipedia:TITLE#Article title format; I was concerned about entries that appeared to be parts of series (specifically "Tests and Jests" - Jane and the Dragon - for which there is a correctly formatted redirect) but investigation reveals that my fears were unfounded.

• Weak keep Artifacts of page moves aren't hurting anything, and the only precedent set is that if you put a quotation mark in the name, the article will get moved to the correct spot. Keep is only weak because if someone wants to waste their time deleting them all, go right ahead.--Fabrictramp | talk to me 15:35, 11 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Improper cross namespace redirect. MBisanz ^talk 03:14, 11 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete as bad cross namespace redirect. This redirect is not needed to aid navigation either, as one presumes that the reader will find this template at the bottom of each relevant article, thus if they look up one, they have them all. --Taelus (talk) 10:13, 12 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
