Emu and the jabiru

The result of the discussion was procedural close. Thanks, Ivanvector. I'll go ahead and move it. --BDD (talk) 16:06, 11 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

With respect, this was a very poor redirect decision. This started as a one-sentence stub on an Australian Aboriginal myth. I assumed from the title it was going to be a comparison of emus and jabirus, so that's WP:ASTONISH/WP:XY. "Jabiru" in this case seems to refer to Black-necked stork, which does mention an Aboriginal myth, but nothing about emus. BDD (talk) 19:27, 8 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Okay I did some work on it. It could use more analysis if anyone can find a source that isn't paywalled, and attention from an expert in Australian Aboriginal topics. But I think it's a decent stub now. If kept, this should be moved to Emu and the Jabiru per MOS:CAPS. Ivanvector 🍁 (talk) 16:02, 11 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Like rivers and parks, the singular implies the existence of an island by this name. Legacypac (talk) 18:08, 8 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Very vague Neelix redirects Legacypac (talk) 10:14, 30 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I've never heard the first used. Dearly - dearly beloved we are gathered... Or She will pay dearly for that mistake. So I'm not sure dearly is a term of endurement always. Legacypac (talk) 06:36, 31 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Haha, no, marriage is a term of endurement. Si Trew (talk) 06:44, 31 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was delete. Sigh. Yet more administrative time wasted because of marginal-value redirects created by a certain user. wbm1058 (talk) 17:18, 7 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

While this is the translated meaning of the target, it seems like a really vague search term. The fifth day of what? Christmas, life, school, anything! Legacypac (talk) 07:12, 30 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Celebrated on the "sixth day of the Hebrew month of Sivan " ? Legacypac (talk) 01:06, 4 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

These things are the stuff of quiz questions: "What would The coming/Striking appearance/The fiftieth day mean to a Christian?" Granted this is more University Challenge/"Mastermind" Specialist round than bullseye...but just because something is obscure it does not mean it is useless. Bosley John Bosley (talk) 00:01, 18 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Agreed. I find it difficult to imagine a reader who knows of this meaning but would not know to check Pentecost first. So I'm skeptical both that many readers would actually search for these terms, and that we can predict with much accuracy what they'd be looking for if they did. --BDD (talk) 15:32, 18 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

2015 / Regression

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 delete. The slash is used in non-article namespaces to create subpages and is only used in article or redirect titles where the title is correct. Deryck C. 21:23, 16 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

This is bizarre formatting, and I can't imagine why anyone would search for a film this way. -- Tavix (talk) 15:21, 8 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Cut and Paste from Putlocker Bosley John Bosley (talk) 16:55, 8 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]
That's not the name of the film, it's showing two categories on one line, separated by a slash. That's why that says "released" on that line. -- Tavix (talk) 19:36, 8 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Yeah I know...I'm moderately intelligent...you wished to know why anyone would search for a film this way. Bosley John Bosley (talk) —Preceding undated comment added 19:47, 8 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]
...and yet that didn't answer my question. I would've assumed someone with moderate intelligence would know that "2015 / Regression" is not a plausible way to search for a film. -- Tavix (talk) 20:01, 8 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]
You did not ask a question; you made a statement. Bosley John Bosley (talk) 20:16, 8 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]
I guess I'll make it more explicit then: Why do you expect other people to search for a film in this manner? -- Tavix (talk) 23:19, 8 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was delete. I think the consensus below is best summarised as "yes it's an obvious typo, but no it's not helpful to have this redirect". Deryck C. 21:51, 15 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Delete as an obscure typo, it seems unlikely to forget to un-shift for that long. In external searches that omit the ^s, this is actually a search for the United States, making this more trouble than it's worth. -- Tavix (talk) 14:22, 8 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Keep Intuitive redirect. Please switch off all the lights and take your laptop to bed. Bosley John Bosley (talk) 18:04, 8 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Actually, it was speedy deleted by The Anome. I created a dab from a redlink and Rossami restored the edit history a bit later. -- Tavix (talk) 03:09, 11 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was retarget to Hustler (disambiguation)#Professions. Deryck C. 21:22, 16 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Witionary lists: hustler ‎(plural hustlers) 1. One who hustles: especially somebody who pretends to be an amateur at a game in order to win bets. 2. pimp. 3.A prostitute. 4. A male prostitute who sells his services to men.

So this could refer to at least #3 and #4 and maybe #2. Legacypac (talk) 06:28, 8 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was delete. --BDD (talk) 16:25, 15 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

A redirect created for an unreleased video game adaptation of Akira, which appears to be speculative information. After doing research on the game via Google (there were only promotional posters on the web which also appear to be false information) and going through this difference on the film page, I believe that it is reasonable enough to say that not only that there are no notability via significant coverage by third-party reliable sources to cover this information, but it fails the general notability guideline and the no original research policy, as well as the crystal ball section of What Wikipedia is not.

This is a real thing, but the teams are formed from 6 different police forces, of which the Alberta Sheriff is likely the last ones to be called in (sheriffs in Alberta are quite different then the American versions). Mentioned at target, and linked to the redirect creating a loop. Delete to encourage article creation? Legacypac (talk) 00:16, 8 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]
