Left behind after target page was moved - appears to be a set of possible renderings of the target's name. Not useful, anyone searching for any of these would find the article just fine. ƒirefly ( t · c · who? ) 22:37, 3 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was keep. Consensus is that these are useful, but I do want to call out Oiyarbepsy's comment (ideally all of our MOS redirects would look like this) was particularly persuasive (colons versus slashes aside). ~ Amory (u • t • c) 11:17, 11 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

[Some more added by SMcCandlish:]

Delete; similar to Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion/Log/2007 December 8#Malformed MOS-related redirs. Pinging participants of that discussion: (SMcCandlish—Radiant!—Gimmetrow—SandyGeorgia—WJBscribe). "MOS:" is a pseudo-namespace that does not need to be preceded by "Wikipedia:". — Godsy (TALKCONT) 22:03, 3 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Update - While the bug report from 2015 still shows as open/unresolved I did some testing and believe the underlying issue for why I created the Wikipedia:MOS:DISAMBIG redirect has been resolved. The problem was that the search indexer was filing with pages names starting with MOS: and H: in the wrong namespace meaning the search hints were both failing and at times giving suggestions for pages that did not exist as clicking on the search suggestion landed the person in the wrong namespace. The redirect was added so if someone realized that MOS: was failing that they would then try WP:MOS:... or Wikipedia:MOS:... in the search box to find the template. Thus, I'm now supporting deletion of the Wikipedia:MOS:DISAMBIG redirect. --Marc Kupper|talk 06:28, 4 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

MoS:

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 keep. Consensus here seems less strong than the related WP:MOS redirects, but it seems folks think these to be useful. I acknowledge that, yes, per WP:R#D6, XNRs generally aren't grand, as well as a longstanding aversion 'round these parts to return to the proliferation of pesudo-namespaces we once had. Still, the arguments that these are likely to be helpful and that spread is likely to be minimal are convincing to me. Wikipedia:Shortcut#Pseudo-namespaces suggests MoS doesn't have strong support, and while I'm not about to change that based off of this result, perhaps in fact it might. Pseudo-namespaces aren't set in stone, they're what we want. Some of the ones created after the 2014 RfC might be reasonably considered on an individual basis, but I find a consensus to keep this nomination as a whole. ~ Amory (u • t • c) 11:37, 11 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Extended content
Previous RfDs for this redirect and similar redirects:

"MoS:" deviations of "MOS:", which is a pseudo-namespace. The standard versions of these already exist. It is important to remember that pseudo-namespace redirects are technically in the mainspace. Should we accept the ~30 of these redirects and endorse them as appropriate, reject and delete them, or accept the ones that currently exist but discourage new ones? — Godsy (TALKCONT) 18:23, 3 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

A similar number of "Mos:" redirects exist. — Godsy (TALKCONT) 19:24, 3 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was retarget to Template:Update inline. I'll go through and change these, and update the pages and this as I do so (help appreciated). ~ Amory (u • t • c) 14:50, 11 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Well, I had to fight AnomieBOT on a few, but I believe I've now updated all usages, as well as some project pages (most notably WP:AWB/TR). I've left user(sub)pages alone. ~ Amory (u • t • c) 16:24, 11 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Retarget to Template:Update inline. When someone types ((update needed)) or ((dated info)), they probably mean to immediately place a "needs update" notice, rather than to place one at some point in the future as ((update after)) does.

Note the redirects currently have 95 existing transclusions that would need to be updated, either to use ((update after)) directly or to pass the date via |date= instead of |1= and |2=. Anomie⚔ 17:32, 14 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
Relisting comment: I'll gladly update the usages if this goes forward, but given that there are some uses, not all were created before the proposed target, and the 3-4x different usage between the current and proposed target, some more input would be nice.

Voting and elections

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. This was close, but I think the discussion here leans delete. I'll preface this by saying that "per WP:XY" is a valid but boring reason, and repeating it doesn't offer much additional as this isn't a !vote, but where the rubber hits the road is really in the replies. There are good reasons to ignore WP:XY, but it essentially boils down to there being a place where these are discussed or at least mentioned together. I am unconvinced by the keep !voters that Election is the clear intent for someone using this, especially that Voting isn't. Indeed, as suggested below, there are even other possibilities where this could reasonably be useful. I'm not certain there isn't some other good target for this, but that just gets us further and further down the hole. ~ Amory (u • t • c) 22:24, 11 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Relisting comment: Yet another with split participants over an WP:XY issue. I'd like to get away from relisting these, but that needs more input!

the subject is not mentioned in the target. the timelines for Rap music and bubblegum pop do not seem to have overlapped and a search on the web does not seem to show a connection between the 2 subjects Dom from Paris (talk) 12:02, 16 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

The boutique is a international chain of stores in at least a dozen countries according to their website. No mention of it in the target (the Indian edition of the magazine by the same name). No mention of the store in Elle (magazine) either. So with no good target, delete. MB 02:08, 25 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

That makes no sense to me as there is no mention of the stores in the article. MB 18:34, 2 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

This isone of the templates that redirects to the speedy criterion for "no context" Unfortunately, it frquently confuses new comers, because the criterion for a1, is not that the article is short, but that the article gives insufficient information to tell what the article is about -- e.g. John is known as a baseball player.

No idea what this phrase means. Not mentioned at target. Creator's edit summary was "synonym", which makes even less sense. Oiyarbepsy (talk) 00:24, 3 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry, Oiyarbepsy, my blind spot. It stands for "Electronic Nicotine Delivery Devices Systems".[1] The term seems to be more used by medical professionals, and Wikipedia seems to have decided to use "electronic cigarettes", hence the lack of mention. HLHJ (talk) 00:30, 3 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
