Nikolai Aleksandrovich Lebedev

The result of the discussion was delete, unopposed. -- Tavix (talk) 02:24, 11 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

A redirect to a DAB page on which he does not appear, except as a circular link back to the only article which uses the redirect. I've added ((ill)) links to Russian Wiki on both pages. I propose delete to encourage article creation; there looks to be plenty of meat in the Russian article. Narky Blert (talk) 23:45, 2 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Emoticon or Emoji?

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 provisionally retarget to Emoji. There is consensus that if these redirects should point to a single general article, this should be Emoji. Whether they should point to a single generic article or to separate articles about the specific concepts represented has not been decided, so that matter is left to editor discretion. (non-admin closure) – Uanfala (talk) 18:00, 22 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Emoticon or Emoji? (discussion)[edit]

These should all be retargeted to (or kept at) Emoji since that's what they are. (Note: I'm grouping these all together to purpose them be retargeted to Emoji since they are not Emoticons; if possible, these redirects can be nominated individually afterwards if need be. I'm trying to avoid a WP:TRAINWRECK since the purpose of this discussion is to form consensus on these redirects being emojis and not emoticons.) Steel1943 (talk) 22:20, 2 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

These page titles are all emoji, but some of them (like 😩) are graphical representations of emoticons. Confusing, isn't it? Ivanvector (Talk/Edits) 21:04, 7 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
That seems to be a good way to do it. -- Tavix (talk) 20:37, 9 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was delete. -- Tavix (talk) 02:23, 11 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Overly specific redirect. There are many other examples of this, like the Great Purge and the Reign of Terror. Someone may type this in with a different intent, like meaning stuff like the Donald Trump–Russia dossier controversy (is Trump loyal to the US? This is important to our national security!). Mr. Guye (talk) 16:41, 2 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • no Disagree with Mangoe. The Donald Trump-Russia dossier has nothing to do with purges. The redirect does not imply a cleaning out of government officials.--Mr. Guye (talk) 18:20, 4 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • no Disagree with Mangoe. From a British standpoint, "purge" in a political sense brings to mind this. Even British understatement doesn't use "controversy" as a euphemism for "mass murder". Narky Blert (talk) 23:08, 4 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was delete. Various retargeting options have been suggested, but the argument that the redirect is vague has prevailed. -- Tavix (talk) 02:21, 11 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Although Donald Trump has talked about extending the Mexico–United States barrier, this generic phrase is not mentioned in the target article and is really too vague to serve as a useful redirect to Donald Trump. Gnome de plume (talk) 16:17, 2 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Kremlingate

The result of the discussion was disambiguate. --BDD (talk) 00:22, 12 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

The article makes no use of the term "Kremlingate", and there is no mention of it at List of scandals with "-gate" suffix. However, the media is beginning to refer to the Trump/Flynn/Russia saga with that name.[1][2] – Muboshgu (talk) 02:27, 16 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was speedy deleted criterion G7 by Cyp on a request by Rubbish computer. Procedural close. Ivanvector (Talk/Edits) 13:12, 2 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

A redirect for lavender mountain lily exists. Is there a reason to keep (or encourage creating) variant redirects prefixed with a definite article? Plantdrew (talk) 06:05, 2 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Relisting comment: Involved relist in order to close a log page. I usually dislike multiple relistings, but each have been fruitful so far...
