• Aortae → Aorta  (talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ] 

(Eubot list 11). This is a bit nonsense because depending on what language you speak you might take the "ae" at the back as a Latin plural, but in fact it is just a Eubot back-formation. I suppose it is harmless but it WP:SURPRISEd me, especially thinking about the major cardiovascular system, I could see this being easily confused, so perhaps WP:XY.

Comment: What else were you thinking it might refer to? PriceDL (talk) 12:54, 22 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Keep: I think everyone will expect this to lead to information about aorta, and it is used synonymously with 'aortas' in some peer-reviewed sources. PriceDL (talk) 13:03, 22 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

'Comment. I think I may have missed on this one. I was cross-reffing this from somewhere else as a possible suggestion to where that might at an offchance retarget. I checked just to be on the safe side that we haven't aeortaee or nonsense by Eubot. We don't, it seems (good). I cocked up probably listing this instead of mentioning it. I think now I can close as withdrawn by nom. I probably got confused, The eubot ones do catch you that way, that you forget what language you are in. Gearing meself up for another go! The best thing to do, as I used to say with regular Eubot plodder User:Champion, is to kinda take your eyes off the list after a while, otherwise everything looks the same. Not saying I said it in those exact words, but that is the rough effect. I probably didn't on this one.

• Nils Taepp → Nils Täpp  (talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ] 

(eubot list 11) This is a bit tricky. Consensus is generally to keep Swedish ones, but this is someone's surname, and his surname was not "Taepp". We don't have a surname list at Taepp. I think on the whole this is WP:RFD#D5 nonsense. Si Trew (talk) 23:54, 21 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep If anything, I'd say name redirects like this - especially in the case of athletes - are more plausible than most other non-German ä->ae and ö->oe ones, since official sports bodies sometimes use ä->ae and ö->oe even for non-German athletes, and in any case the names of sportspeople who compete or receive attention abroad are often mangled into a wild variety of forms. Täpp, for example, was called "Nils Taepp" in the official 1948 Olympic Report, and that spelling also appeared in many English-language newspapers in the late 1940s and early 1950s, making it a plausible (and harmless) search term on enwiki.

The result of the discussion was keep with no prejudice against renominating if there are valid reasons why Roman à fleuve should not redirect to Novel sequence (which was not discussed here). Ivanvector (^Talk/_Edits) 17:42, 2 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

• Roman a fleuve → Novel sequence  (talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ] 

(eubot) This is a bit of clutter. The article has as "roman-fleuve" but not "roman-a-fleuve". My guess is this is created by Eubot from a mistaken creation, compare roman a clef for example Si Trew (talk) 23:07, 21 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Created by eubot from Roman à fleuve. That is still a bit puzzling to me. I know roughly it would mean "flowing novel" or whatever, but I can't work this one out. I think many of the great French authors had these things, Victor Hugo and so on, but this right now is WP:RFD#D2 confusing, not at target. Hmm... Si Trew (talk) 23:10, 21 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I am still not sure about it anyway, and the others, since these refer to kinda specifically French novelists. To redirect it (and the others, not by eubot) to "Novel Sequence" is perhaps a bit odd. I imagine we have a better target. Hesitate to list all the others, I have cluttered RfD enough, but there are of course others. Si Trew (talk) 23:13, 21 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep synchronised with Roman à fleuve per WP:DIACRITICS. Presently that redirect targets Novel sequence so this should too - if you think it shouldn't nominate both for deletion/retargetting. Thryduulf (talk) 19:41, 25 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

• Maelstroem (film) → Maelström (film)  (talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ] 

(eubot list 11) Weak delete. This is a canadian film. Eubot has back-formed to "Maelstroem" but that is not what we would call it, is not what the target calls it. The kkinda it is not exactly a metal umlaut ut we might be making nonsense out of this. Si Trew (talk) 22:39, 21 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not suggesting that "Maelstroem" is not a word. I just wonder whether with the disambiguation, this makes a good redirect. I always feel a bit queer about these ones. Probably OK, but for myself I would delete it. Si Trew (talk)

(eubot list 11) This is probably allright, but is not the name of the company on either side and in any case is a bit iffy.

I am on Engish keyboard layout but would be Thokoly dots on both Imre no dots on either. This is well too far out, WP:RFD#D5 nonsense. Si Trew (talk) 21:46, 21 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

If I want to take a bus into town I go to Thököly út. I do not go to Thoekoely Imre út. ("út" = roughly main street, large street: there's no direct translation really.) It's one of the most frequently-travelled bus routes in Budapest. Si Trew (talk) 10:25, 22 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Comment. Hungarians will tell you that their language is "speak-as-you-spell", but the "Th" is an odd example where it is not. Common, but pronounced exactly the same as T.

• Delete. "RDC" is the abbreviation for République démocratique du Congo, the official name for the country know in English as the Democratic Republic of the Congo (French is the official language), and I can only find uses of "Societe nationale d'electricite" (with or without diacritics) in combination with "RDC" in French-language sources (e.g. fr:=Societe nationale d'electricite (RDC)) so it is very unlikely that anyone will be looking for this in English.

Ach, we do have Robert Myers, which is a name DAB. I presume an editor has then created this title (not the redirect) to disambiguate in this way, which is an odd way to do it by WP standards... eubbot then created the not particularly odd (by its standards) redirect from it.

Yes, it is. But do you thibink people searching for "Siemien" might be looking for simian or Siemens or semen and suchlike? That is why I brought to RfD.

I suppose what I am saying is, had Eubot not created these, what would they have found. WP:SURPRISEish, but I don't think that they would want to find a small village in Poland )too an English-speaking audience). Si Trew (talk)

There's nothing else notable with the name "Siemien", so I don't see the problem. Close spellings that someone can reasonably be confused with can be dealt with via a ((confused)) hatnote at Siemień. Again, Eubot is not a reason for deletion. -- Tavix ^(talk) 21:20, 21 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

True, but you're kinda going a different way from me. I am assuming people do not pick out exactly and their tablets and stuff just will whack in any old thing that happens to match. On that ground I would say the probability that someone wants to find a small village in Poland instead of a large multinational corporation, etc, is a bit iffy, were I a bookmaker. However, You're kinda right, Wikipedia should be exact and then that would be fine. The problem really is that it's not "Siemien" but "Siemień" if you sie what I mień. It kinda lies in between. Si Trew (talk) 08:40, 22 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I'll repeat: I appreciate that eubot is not a reason for deletion, that is just a swift shorthand that many regulars understand to save them time checking where it came from, like we did with (neelix); it is essentially a courtesy note.

Many things are "liveable". World's most liveable cities doesn't seem like a good redirect to me. E.g. "It's not a luxurious apartment by any means but it's liveable." or "fatherhood makes life more liveable". The more American spelling "livable" redirects differently, to Quality of life.

• Retarget to Quality of life. Obviously they should all go to the same place, and that's where the use of the term I'm familiar with is discussed ("Foo is a livable city") – Train2104 (t • c) 21:39, 10 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Quality of Life doesn't cover all meanings of livable. For example, in real estate, "livable space" is space that is insulated/heated/cooled as opposed to non-livable space like a garage - pretty much covered in habitability. Since there are different potential targets for different uses, just delete. MB 01:30, 11 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

• Retarget all to quality of life per Train2104. A large majority of the mainspace links to the nominated redirects use the term to refer to quality of life. WP:NOTDIC covers articles, not redirects, and is not relevant here. - Eureka Lott 04:34, 11 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I just checked two incoming links. Feather pecking refers to coexistence of poultry, and USS Cutlass (SS-478) refers to color schemes on submarines - neither of which are a good fit for the overall Quality of Life, which is about the "general well-being of individuals and societies". These redirects still don't seem to cover it well.MB 16:52, 15 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

• I never claimed that every mainspace link to the nominated redirects used the term in a quality of life manner; I said that most of them did—so, yes, if you want to cherry-pick a couple articles, you can find examples to the contrary. If you want to see articles that prove my point, see the usage at Affordable housing, The Avenues, Salt Lake City, Federal Transit Administration, Hamburg, Integrated modification methodology, Leipzig, The Model home 2020 project, Nagpur, A Pattern Language, SMART Infrastructure Facility, Tree care, Urbanization, Western Pennsylvania, etc., etc. - Eureka Lott 05:23, 16 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I know you said a "majority", not all. I was not trying to disprove what you said, but rather to point out when redirecting to quality of life would not help the reader. The purpose of redirects is not to send the reader to a place that "might" provide more information or "might" be erroneous. Since are are different meanings, and unless a page is created on "livable" that handles these four redirects better (while not just providing a dictionary definition), I just think they should be deleted so as not to mislead. The redlinks in those articles that do use the term for quality of life could then be edited to directly link there. If the consensus is to redirect all to quality of life, then every incoming link to all four should still be checked for possible unlinking if they mean something else. But even if everything is fixed up, as long as we have redirects of a generic term "liveable" to a specific usage "quality of life", more bad links will be introduced in the future by editors who don't sufficiently check targets before linking.

• What is needed is indeed a broad-concept article on the Liveability, with the other senses redirecting there. Compare Habitability. bd2412 T 01:41, 24 April 2017 (UTC)

Yes, but then for example Le Corbusier said, I think, "Une maison est une machine-á-habiter", a house is a machine for living in. We could add that to that concept article, and although I like architecture, I think whatever we put at that broad concept article might be quite, um, subjective? Orwell I think in A nice cup of tea is it describes father round the father, Mother cooking lamb with potatoes under the roast, and so on, in a way which is very "liveable", I think it is such a vague concept that I am not sure that even a broad concept article could cover it. In an architectural sense it probably could do. Throwing out suggestions, homely, des. res., probably neither of those quite goes to where I should expect. Homely would in the mid 20thC. be a euphemism for "fat", essentially. Very homely womam. But perhaps again that is just me thinking of Orwell, I think he described women in many of his essays thus.

Anyone looking for those would use the full term not this substring. The one clear use on it's own I did find had the meaning "a private moment to myself" in the context of a rapidly-progressing date.

  Botte in Italian is barrel: it:Botte AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 17:49, 31 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  Per wikt:botte It also means "boot", "bunch"/"bundle"/"bale", "barrel", "ton" (used when measuring ship capacity) (among other meanings, including some metaphorical ones) in French and "boot" in Jersey Norman. Botte means "bale" or "bundle" in Luxembourgish and botté is an adjective meaning "booted"/"wearing boots" in French. bøtte is Norwegian for "bucket". The variety of meanings here I think is a good illustration of why WP:FORRED is a thing. According to The Bottom#History "De Botte" is Old Dutch for "the bowl". I can't find any language in which this means "bottle". Thryduulf (talk) 19:45, 31 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I've been working a bit in the area of Category:Show business families and we do have subcategories such as Category:Acting families, as well as Category:Family musical groups, for families that perform together. I do not believe the nominated category should be a soft redirect to Category:Show business families, but a bona fide category on its own, for there are good number of such families and I don't think they should be lumped in with the too-general "show business."

The reader may go to the list page without the word "important" present in its title, and in most cases (like the one of this redirect,) that page is the target of this nominated redirect. So, of the reader doesn't consider any of the items listed at the list page "important", they may look up the title with the word "important" (this redirect), and be redirected here.

• Delete. The "important" modifier is confusing and undefined. What makes a certain opera terminology important? -- Tavix ^(talk) 18:02, 27 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete I was about to close this as no consensus, but upon further reflection, I think it's misleading and thus doing more harm than good. The target page is meant like an index, listing topics, not terminology. If we had a Glossary of opera terms (compare to, for example, Glossary of musical terminology or Glossary of operating systems terms), this could point there harmlessly enough, but as is, this feels somewhat arbitrary. Opera itself might be just as good a place to get "important opera terminology" as the current target. --BDD (talk) 20:38, 3 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete. The modifier "important" is potentially confusing, and the target isn't a glossary of terms anyway. My second preference would be retarget to Glossary of musical terminology. WJBscribe (talk) 16:11, 5 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

• Pure3D → Radical Entertainment  (talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ] 

"Pure3D" does not occur in the target article once. Lordtobi (✉) 10:52, 21 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

That makes it a bit WP:RFD#D2 confusing, by RFD's usual lights (well mine) but I would have said more that this might be WP:XY. I have seen so many productsm,, graphics cards and tellies and stuff, marked "Pure3D" that I don't think we can pin it on any one of them. Trying to rack my brains here. Perhaps Delete for that reason. Others will have other opinions. Si Trew (talk) 23:39, 21 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Most of the gsearch results I get are for graphics cards from various manufacturers. Perhaps it's a bit WP:XY. I don't think it is a trademark. Si Trew (talk) 23:42, 21 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete. There are dozens of products and brands called or marketed as "Pure3D"/"Pure 3D" or which include that in their title, in such diverse areas as graphic design, printing, makeup, false eyelashes, and something to do with petroleum. WP:XY indeed. Thryduulf (talk) 10:01, 26 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep. This redirect was created in 2002, most likely back before the Wikipedia software recognized spaces. This redirect is probably a ((R from old history)), even if the "W" in "War" isn't capitalized. Steel1943 (talk) 19:54, 21 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

That would then be when it should have been InterCapped. I guess an early editor ([User:Mav]] in fact) just missed the cap on the "w", but it has been around so long I agree with Steely, Keep. It has done no harm in fifteen years. I'll rcat as ((R from incorrect name)) if not already done, without prejudice of course. Si Trew (talk) 12:04, 25 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Pure slang, and a nickname which is never used for Jeremy Corbyn. Don't think this redirect is at all necessary Class455 (talk|stand clear of the doors!) 09:40, 21 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

• keep— or am I missing something here? Googling shows that this nickname is widely used, even in the press. Mangoe (talk) 14:01, 21 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep — he is not infrequently referred to as Jezza including in the press, although usually only once his full name has been mentioned and not at the same time as his surname. Still, if someone were to look at this page, it's clear they want to reach Jeremy Corbyn PriceDL (talk) 14:51, 21 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was disambiguate. I was going to close as retarget, per Thryduulf, when I came across De Hoed ("de" just being "the" in Dutch). So I could've done that and converted to a disambiguation page via normal editorial action, but I don't expect this to be controversial. See also WP:NOTBURO. --BDD (talk) 16:21, 2 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

• Hoed → Höðr  (talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ] 

(eubot) I just found this by way of drafting the dab for hodd. Si Trew (talk) 08:32, 21 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Well, I can't find any evidence that "Hoed" is the name of the norse god etc. This is a back-formation by ((eubot). I think it is a long way out. I was going to add it to the draft DAB which we are doing for the one below, but then realised this is a bit of WP:RFD#D5 nonsense really. At best it would be WP:XY. This is why Goed does not exist. Si Trew (talk) 08:39, 21 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Comment. That's odd. It used to turn over the page at UTC, one hour behind me depending on where I am but now it turned it over on a different time zone?

Which is at Wikipedia:Redirects_for_discussion/Log/2017_April_20#Hodd... I can understand it turning over, am I losing my mind, because I was listing this morning at the 20th page and now we are on the 21st page. Has someone changed the settings for when it turns over? I was just in the middle of drafting the DAB when it turned over. Si Trew (talk) 08:56, 21 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Probably am losing my mind. I was just catching up on yesterday's. Si Trew (talk) 08:59, 21 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

• delete "Hoed", being the past tense of "to hoe", isn't going to send me to a Norse god, especially since the real name rhymes with "loathe", not with "load". Mangoe (talk) 20:38, 21 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I never thought of the past tense of hoe... was trying to think in a very Scrabble like manner but that never occured to me. How odd. Or should I say hoe ed. Anyway, it would be WP:NOUN wouldn't it. Si Trew (talk) 23:16, 21 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

• weak retarget to Pat Hoed as ((R from surname)) (he's the only person I can find with an article who has this surname). Høed is a (presumably small) place on the island of Funen, Denmark (linked only at Ingrid Marie) but there is no article about this place in English or Danish.

• This used to redirect to Johal, for a long time an article about a Jat clan. Now it's a surname index, but even so I think there's nothing wrong with retargeting there as an ((R from plural)). – Uanfala (talk) 10:56, 15 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

• Musically → Musical.ly  (talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ] 

R3 doesn't quite apply as this is a plausible redirect, even though unlikely, while Music, Musical theatre or Musical all have legitimate claims to be the primary usage. My inclination would be to redirect this to the dab page at Musical rather than try to second-guess the reader, but I can also see a legitimate case for a soft redirect to wikt:Musically.  ‑ Iridescent 21:10, 14 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep and hatnote to Musical. It's very likely for someone searching for the software to miss the dot, especially given the target demographic. feminist 04:59, 15 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
• This is ambiguous. It could refer to the service musical.ly, but it can also relate to other music-related things. Convert it to a disambiguation page. UpsandDowns1234 (Talk to me) (My Contribs) 05:59, 15 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • ...What other articles would be on such a disambiguation page? Besides the current target, everything else that I can think of/find would be a WP:DICDEF association. Steel1943 (talk) 06:47, 15 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
• Comment It could be kept for ((R from stylization)), but the trademark searches are ambiguous. It is not clear they own the word without the period in it. But linking to "music" would be more of a dictionary definition and to a common word "music" that would be considered overlinking. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 13:42, 17 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep It seems quite reasonable to refer to the website as "Musically". Since we're not a dictionary, what else would be called such? Do users really need an additional push to get to Music? --BDD (talk) 16:26, 21 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

.*Delete. WP:NOT an advertisement for a band or musical group. I think we should at the very best redirect to Music, but it is best off deleted. We are not an advertisement for other people's websites. Si Trew (talk) 23:22, 21 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

• I don't see how redirecting it construes an advertisement, any more than having an article on the site. "Musical.ly" is the name of the site; it's not like we're redirecting "Best video sharing site" there. --BDD (talk) 18:05, 25 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
