Extremely uncommon version of the title of the game whose article this page redirects to. The official abbreviation has 6 A letters, the game title has 25 A letters and this redirect has 14 A letters. This redirect doesn't even capitalize the letters where appropiate.

I can accept that the word Kwyjibo is a worthwhile redirect, but do we really need an unfinished version of it? That'd be like having a redirect for "Scrabb". Thegreatluigi (talk) 19:47, 29 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

This may have been a misspelling somewhere, but it doesn't seem common enough to warrant its existence. That, and per research, this spelling could potentially be related to the word "rugae", which pertains to physical wrinkles. Steel1943 (talk) 18:45, 29 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Not mentioned in target article. Per third-party dictionaries, this term does not refer exclusively to the current target, and may even qualify for WP:REDLINK. But, then again, the term also looks like it may be WP:NEO. Steel1943 (talk) 18:18, 29 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was retarget to Financial independence. ~ Amory (utc) 10:11, 6 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

As a result of the following seemingly bold edit: [2], these two redirects are not in sync. The redirection of Financial Freedom to Wealth seems to be the result of Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Financial freedom since Financial freedom was made a redirect to Wealth as a result, but on the same token, Financial independence does seem like a viable target for both of these redirects.

The result of the discussion was retarget to A Day in the Life (disambiguation). AfD or not, this has been a redirect for years with the target at that name, so we're fine to discuss. ~ Amory (utc) 11:44, 6 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

No appropriate target. Current target does not discuss it with a single reliable source (hint: they don't exist), and even if we go by that logic, the search results for this are just as useful as a "list" of the search results. Even then, this redirect is implausible. This should obviously foremost redirect to "A day in the life of", which doesn't exist. wumbolo ^^^ 17:55, 29 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

This is weird to see this up for deletion, which would destroy some record of the past edit contributions and the history of the topic, given that is my concern (and i hope others', too) about the stakes at the AFD. I will post mention of this CFD at the AFD, I guess. --Doncram (talk) 00:25, 30 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
There's a well-known photography book series published in the 1980s and 1990s called "A Day in the Life of" by David Elliot Cohen and Rick Smolan. An article could be created to deal with that series, although most of the titles are under Cohen's article. AngusWOOF (barksniff) 15:39, 1 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was delete. All created as part of a long renaming process, so I'm leaning delete here on the idea that none were very intentionally made. As they are unused and unwanted, defaulting to delete. ~ Amory (utc) 10:56, 6 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

These four redirects are not used in any article and so they are useless. I propose deletion as i can't find any use for them. Ben5218 (talk) 16:34, 29 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

It was a bit confusing for me to add another redirect to this nomination, so i added it separately. Ben5218 (talk) 17:18, 29 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect was created in 2013 because it was apparently listed on WP:TOPRED (it's no longer on that page now), I've since created Beckham, David which is the common format for these sorts of redirects, "Beckham David" could also give the impression it's an actual name .... Also just to note now that "Beckham, David" exists "Beckham David" no longer shows up as a suggestion in the search bar, Thanks, –Davey2010Talk 21:42, 20 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Just to note the redirect is linked at User:Rybec/failed-requests-list and User:Vedranf/LZMK-HOL/B2 however the former page was a 2014 creation and the latter a 2009 creation and I assume both pages were copied & pasted from TOPRED at some point, Both pages are full of redlinks and both are abandoned, Thanks, –Davey2010Talk 21:52, 20 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
"Absent evidence of confusion" - The only thing I'm confused about is your !vote right now!, What does "Beckham David" do that "Beckham, David" doesn't ?, As noted TOPRED is no longer used and this redirect is no longer on that page which means this redirect is not serving any sort of purpose, As for the page views - That's irrelevent as there's only been one search term until now, As I said the name with the comma is the common format. –Davey2010Talk 01:20, 21 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Someone who searches "Beckham David" will end up precisely where they want to end up, and I see no evidence that someone would be seeking a different topic. "Beckham David" and "Beckham, David" are different search terms, the fact that one exists or the other is irrelevant. The fact that WP:TOPRED is no longer updated is also irrelevant—at one point in time, the term "Beckham David" received a large amount of page views so a redirect was created to catch that use, and it continues to be used all this time later. -- Tavix (talk) 01:31, 21 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Not necessarily - I hate to paint everyone as complete idiots but I'd imagine not everyone would be looking for the footballer .... (As I said below there are different topics with "Beckham" in the front), I disagree the comma is entirely relevant as is the fact TOPRED is no longer used (If this redirect was still present on that page then we wouldn't be here now), Again as I said the whole reason it's being used is because it's the only one and so again usage is irrelevant, At present you nor Nyttend have presented any valid reasons for keeping. –Davey2010Talk 01:41, 21 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
I can assure you that someone using "Beckham David" to search is not looking for Beckham County, Oklahoma, for example. I'm baffled by your TOPRED argument...if a redirect is created at a certain title, it is no longer a redlink, so it can't remain present on that page once the bot updated it the following week. The whole reason it's being used is because people are using this particular search term, so there is absolutely no reason to deny people from using it in the future. On the other hand, "people are using it" is WP:R#K5 for keeping a redirect and "it aids searching" is WP:R#K3 for keeping a redirect, so your assertion that no valid reasons for keeping have been advanced is absolutely mind-boggling. -- Tavix (talk) 01:56, 21 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
There are plenty of things with Beckham in the front such as Beckham County, Oklahoma, Beckham law, Beckham bone so it could be easy to confuse this with something else (then again it may not!), Inregards to the usage as I said above the usage is only because this has been the only redirect thus far, and again as I said the comma is the common and most used format here so at present there's no real reason to keep this around. –Davey2010Talk 01:20, 21 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@Tavix: I am so sorry, I didn't read these related page clearly at that time, so I think this redirect isn't a matter to me now, changing to Keep. Thank you for mentioning me. Hhhhhkohhhhh (talk) 11:41, 23 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Not sure that this should go to a template, but not sure where else either. Thoughts, anyone? This is a "Redirects for DISCUSSION" rather than deletion, as it seems a reasonable topic on which to search. Or perhaps not, as wildly too broad to offer a useful topic!

Tennessee, Tennessee

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. As with OKC, I remain convinced that this is would be a plausible usage, even if only for people outside the area. Plausibility is what's needed, not local usage. As with the below, it might've been easier to do all of these together; as such, I'm not opposed to DRV if someone thinks I'm out of order on these. ~ Amory (utc) 10:45, 6 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

There is no evidence that Tennessee City is ever called just "Tennessee." This redirect has no history and no incoming links. See also the RFD discussion for "Oklahoma, Oklahoma", which was created by the same editor on the same day. I propose deletion as cleanup of an unlikely synonym. —Bkell (talk) 03:28, 29 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

This isn't even a notable city as with Oklahoma City to attract a decent number of misspelled searches. Are we expecting this to happen with every entry for List of U.S. cities named after their state AngusWOOF (barksniff) 23:03, 30 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
This is different from the ones that are associated with a large metro area of the same name as the state. That's where most of those are coming from. So keeping the Oklahoma City one can make sense. Quebec City is the same story (530 thousand). Also if the county or district is named the same as the state, that would be even more reason to retain to those areas. But Arkansas City, Arkansas is a small city with 366 people. Tennessee City is unincorporated and not a metro area. What about Indiana City, Indiana, should that attract a primary redirect to Indiana, Indiana when searchers are more likely to look for Indianapolis as polis implies city and the large metro area?

No evidence that Arkansas City is ever called just "Arkansas." This redirect has no history. It had two incoming links that I just removed: one from Arkansas City Commercial District [11] and a redirection notice at the top of Arkansas City, Arkansas [12]. Again, this redirect was created by the same editor that created "Tennessee, Tennessee" and "Oklahoma, Oklahoma" (see above). I propose deletion as cleanup of an unlikely synonym. —Bkell (talk) 03:41, 29 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

These should have only been created for cities that are notable for having an associated notable district, county, or metro area of the same name as the state, as with Quebec City (530 thousand), I'll concede Oklahoma City for that reason as it is a notable metro area. But Arkansas City, Arkansas is a small town with 366 people in Desha County, so it should not have been created without some other media notability like with New York, New York. Searchers using the State, State format are going to be looking for those areas, not a small town. They would look for Indianapolis as Indiana City, not Indiana City, Indiana if they were typing in Indiana, Indiana. AngusWOOF (barksniff) 15:09, 2 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
