• Oppose. Hi. If I were the nominator, I'd have definitely tried to add a persuasive reason. But in absence of that, I am left to myself to figure out whether it is appropriate or not. So, I am asking myself the following:

1. "What does a person who enters 'GNU/Linux' into Wikipedia is looking for?" I think he either wants to know what is 'GNU/Linux' which he or she has read somewhere or wants to get in-depth information on it.
2. "How does it impact existing 'GNU/Linux' links in Wikipedia?" There are 343 inbound links in the article space of Wikipedia that need to be changed.

Now, is there a reason persuasive enough to counter these issues?

Best regards,

If a referendum results in the unity of Scotland, England, Wales and Northern Ireland, as this has, what otherwise should it be called?BushBandarSting (talk) 07:26, 20 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

A "British unity referendum" (if there ever were such a thing) would presumably be held throughtout the whole of "Britain", whatever that means at the given point in time, rather than in one constituent nation. You're also missing the point that the referendum was instigated by a pro-independence Scottish Government with the objective of achieving Scottish independence. We don't call the 2011 Alternative Vote referendum the "endorsement of First Past the Post referendum", do we? Jmorrison230582 (talk) 07:38, 20 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

(edit conflict)The referendum was on Scottish independence only. Who knows whether the result will improve British unity? If the referendum had been about British unity, then I, as a British citizen, should have had a vote. Please stop pushing your point of view. Dbfirs 07:44, 20 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Exactly, it was about breaking up the union not establishing one. There was unity in the end but it was the continuation of the existing union since the Scottish leaders failed to get enough support to break the union up. This title is obviously misleading and is the reason that neither of the Quebec sovereignty referendums are called Canadian Unity Referendums.--76.65.42.142 (talk) 07:12, 21 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Redirects don't have to be WP:RS, but "British unity referendum" does seem to be a neologism." Her Majesty called for "unity" in her written statement, but the two terms have thus been agglomerated by a well-known search engine, it seems. Neither she, nor anyone else that I can make out, called it a "British unity referendum". As an English citizen, I didn't get a vote either. Does seem a bit WP:POV.

@TheChampionMan1234: It's a misspelling of the name of Mongolia in Cyrillic (Монгол), similar to Poccnr for Россия. I have no idea why it exists, though. Perhaps it was once a link from somewhere. Jarble (talk) 05:24, 20 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete the "correct" Volapuk encoding would write the "г" as lowercase "r" not uppercase "R", i.e. MoHron (or maybe MOHrOn). Redirects from Volapuk encoding may or may not be useful, but redirects from typos/misspellings of Volapuk encoding are probably a bridge too far. 61.10.165.33 (talk) 16:12, 26 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete per Champ. Not impossible, but idiotic to attempt it. It's marked as ((R from alternate capitalization)) but not ((R from title with diacritics)). Maybe also navel-gazing (Wikipedia does not generally refer to Wikipedia, in mainspace). Si Trew (talk) 05:46, 20 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Whatever this is it isn't inappropriate navelgazing. Wikipedia is a perfectly encyclopaedic subject and so appropriate redirects to it from mainspace are no different to redirects to any other mainspace article. No opinion at the moment about this specific redirect. Thryduulf (talk) 13:41, 20 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
    • Oh, the target is fine, of course. But the redirect is not. For if not, we stop using links and instead reference Wikipedia in Wikipedia articles: which we do not; we link them.Wikipedia proclaims itself not to be a reliable source. Si Trew (talk) 21:41, 20 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
      • What on earth does this redirect have to do with referencing? Where appropriate we do link to Wikipedia in articles - see for example Template:Interwiki, Jimmy Wales, Common Era#Internet reaction, History of the Internet (timeline sidebar), Lossless compression#Lossless compression benchmarks, etc. and none of those links, or any of the other redirects to the Wikipedia article have any effect on people referencing Wikipedia in Wikipedia articles (which is acceptable in limited circumstances, e.g. to verify Wikipedia's content or position on something when that is the subject, as it is at Wikipedia Seigenthaler biography incident for example). Thryduulf (talk) 23:45, 20 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

What it has to do is that there is no RS that anyone uses it in this way in any reliable source. Of course "Wikipedia" is referenced in articles, and it can be because "Wikipedia" is referenced in reliable sources. But not "WİKİPEDİA". Unless you can find any.

• 馬容容 → Yo-Yo Ma (links to redirect • history • stats)     [ Closure: keep/delete ] 

Not a valid alternative name in any language, see [4] - TheChampionMan1234 03:12, 20 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete per WP:FORRED and discussions [ad nauseam] Error: ((Lang)): text has italic markup (help) here about foreign-language redirects. Si Trew (talk) 05:52, 20 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
• Yo mama seems an equally likely target, although that is an R to Maternal insult: I note we haven't Paternal insult: dads may be insulted with impunity, I suppose. Si Trew (talk) 12:15, 20 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete, his name in Mandarin is pronounced "ma you you", but this is "ma rong rong". Siuenti (talk) 20:14, 20 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete per Suienti. We haven't rong rong nor the song "Doo rong rong rong", which would seem likelier targets (but not by much). rong is a DAB with several Chinese entries but that doesn't help us here. Si Trew (talk) 21:51, 20 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete The closest connection I can find is in Cantonese, where 友 is yau and 容 is yong, i.e. still very far-fetched. 野狼院ひさし _{Hisashi Yarouin} 15:56, 22 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was Retarget to East Asian name Lenticel ^(talk) 02:08, 3 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

• 姓名 → Korean name (links to redirect • history • stats)     [ Closure: keep/delete ] 

This word is also used in Chinese and Japanese to refer to your full name, (as you can see from wikt:姓名 so it's not necessarily Korean - TheChampionMan1234 03:07, 20 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

• Not sure about this one. (Saying so explicitly rather than shutting up since my notvote is generally delete in this list of them all.) Si Trew (talk) 05:52, 20 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
• Disambiguate WP:CJKV to the three name articles -- 70.51.46.146 (talk) 07:07, 20 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Update retarget to East Asian name per below -- 70.51.46.146 (talk) 05:57, 21 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

@SimonTrew and 70.51.46.146: PLEASE CLOSE THE DISCUSSION and retarget this to East Asian name, there doesn't appear to be any problems with that target. I, as the nominator, proposes to withdraw from this discussion. - TheChampionMan1234 10:41, 20 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

@TheChampionMan1234: I haven't the authority to close it: I am not an admin. But I am not sure this has consensus for your proposed retarget. Si Trew (talk) 12:06, 20 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I can agree to the retarget to East Asian name. -- 70.51.46.146 (talk) 05:57, 21 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

• 黃偉強 → Kaskus (links to redirect • history • stats)     [ Closure: keep/delete ] 

This appears to be the name of a Chinese actor, which clearly isn't related to the target. - TheChampionMan1234 02:52, 20 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete per WP:FORRED and discussions [ad nauseam] Error: ((Lang)): text has italic markup (help) here about foreign-language redirects. Si Trew (talk) 05:52, 20 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete Really inexplicable connection. No people under close variation of that name is mentioned in the target. 野狼院ひさし _{Hisashi Yarouin} 03:36, 23 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Simple perusal of the redirect history would suggest that this is supposed to be the Chinese name of Kaskus founder id:Andrew Darwis. 61.10.165.33 (talk) 02:38, 26 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete Redirect from alt-language name of founder to his company could be a valid redirect under normal circumstances, but this name fails WP:V, and the redirect creator was blocked for using numerous sockpuppets to add dubious/incorrect Chinese names to Wikipedia. 61.10.165.33 (talk) 02:38, 26 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
