• 6135-99-117-3143 → AAA battery  (talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

Redirects are costly, WP:RCOSTLY, Q. E. D.. Four editors now have taken their valuable time to do discuss it. WP:RCHEAP means readirects technically are cheap, do not worry about some poor server in Oshkoshbygosh having to empty its bitbucket. Redirects are costly if they send readers on false scent, or anywhere else they want to go.

Now who says that French is the International Language of Love? Do we have good sources? My trusty French-English dictionary does not list it. You have given two references to websites that, the first is a language learning sitewhich is ((subscription required)), the second is a company "daytanslations.com" that translates stuff. I can also translate stuff, I speak two languages every day, and quite frequently I translate articles from WP:PNT. But they still must qualify for WP:RS and so on, end EN:WP's standards are higher than some others'. Even so, it still does not entitle me to add my own thoughts or desires into the translation. Either this is RS or not. I think it is not.

  Well, my vantage point here was simply English usage, and that should probably be considered above my pay grade too ;). "Pakistani numbers" is a vague generic phrase that can refer to probably anything (except maybe the current target: I'd be surprised if anyone found any sources at all that use the phrase in this sense). The telephone numbers look more likely, but I still prefer deletion: at the very least, we don't seem to have similar redirects for any other country. I strongly suspect the redirect was a result of the (not always explicit) one-upmanship between Indian and Pakistani editors, where the latter have felt obliged to create a "Pakistan" redirect for every "India" one out there (Hindu numerals being a well-established term). – Uanfala (talk) 21:19, 19 January 2020 (UTC)Reply[reply]

The result of the discussion was redirect with caveat. I see a unanimous consensus to retarget Kashmiri numerals to Kashmiri language#Numerals and Balochi numerals to Balochi language#numerals. There's a weak consensus for retargeting Sindhi numerals to Sindhi language#Numerals, and a yet weaker one for pointing Hindko numerals at Shahmukhi alphabet. Since a retarget is likely preferable to simply keeping as no consensus, I think it's best to close this discussion with the proposed retargets, with no prejudice toward editors renominating Hindko and Sindhi for further consideration or boldly making suggested edits to their target articles. _signed, Rosguill ^talk 16:37, 20 January 2020 (UTC)Reply[reply]

The noun "numeral" is ambiguous and may refer to either the words used in a particular language (one, two, three), or to the dedicated characters used to represented them in a writing system (1, 2, 3). Given that we've got here names of languages (rather than scripts), you'd expect these redirects to target articles explaining the use of number words in the respective languages. There is no such content anywhere, and neither does there appear to be anything about the written characters used for numbers in those languages either. – Uanfala (talk) 14:42, 12 January 2020 (UTC)Reply[reply]

• Keep - I don't have a strong feeling about these redirects. It is plausible that somebody might want to know what kind of numerals Sindhis use, and search for "Sindhi numerals", just like one might search for Gujarati numerals. The redirect tells them that, even if by implication. It would of course be better if the page states which regions these numerals are used in. -- Kautilya3 (talk) 10:28, 13 January 2020 (UTC)Reply[reply]
  • I really dislike the idea of having the existence of redirects make implied factual statements that are not explicitly stated, and sourced, in article text. How can we be sure that the competing written standards for Balochi and Hindko all use the Eastern Arabic numerals? Even worse for Sindhi and Kashmiri, which are both prominently written using scripts other than the Arabic. – Uanfala (talk) 17:28, 13 January 2020 (UTC)Reply[reply]
  • Adding that articles like Gujarati numerals or Telugu numerals exist because "Gujarati", etc, are the names of both languages and of scripts, and the articles, though ostensibly about the written characters, can sensibly cover both aspects. This is not the case for the redirects here. A relevant example from a better developed corner of Wikipedia is how you have Cyrillic numerals for the mediaeval system used before the advent of Arabic numerals, and Russian numerals about the number words used in the Russian language. – Uanfala (talk) 18:43, 13 January 2020 (UTC)Reply[reply]
• Comment I have little expertise in this area, and both Uanfala and Kautilya3 make equally compelling arguments. I hate to tag MJL in every "close call" case, but I feel like MJL's expertise in identifying unique and lesser known alternatives to deletion here might be useful, so MJL, care to put on your thinking cap here? The only thing I've come up with is a "no consensus" close, which would effectively "keep" the redirect where it is until someone comes up with a better idea. Doug Mehus T·C 18:13, 13 January 2020 (UTC)Reply[reply]
• Proposal OK, what about this Uanfala and Kautilya3, keep with a hatnote on each article to a separate article on each's numbering system? Alternatively, retarget each redirect to the article on each's numbering system with a hatnote to the numeral article for each? Doug Mehus T·C 18:16, 13 January 2020 (UTC)Reply[reply]
  • It will be helpful if you give a specific example of the proposal. But I don't see keeping or retargeting as viable at all, as there's no relevant content anywhere on wikipedia, for either of the meanings of "numeral" (barring a mention of Sindhi at Eastern Arabic numerals, but that's unsourced and apparently contradicted by easily observed samples of Sindhi writing online: see for example the Sindhi Wikipedia, which uses Western numbers). – Uanfala (talk) 18:34, 13 January 2020 (UTC)Reply[reply]

@Uanfala: Does that work for you? –MJL ‐Talk‐^☖ 22:55, 17 January 2020 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Great work, MJL! The Kashmiri section is excellent, the Balochi one is alright (though you've seen Korn's paper so you're aware this is only scratching the surface), so I'm happy for those two to be retargeted. I'm not sure about Sindhi: a section that in effect only states that the language has numerals isn't of much use, and I don't think we should try expanding it with content solely based on a 150-year old grammar (languages change). As for Hindko, it shouldn't be retargeted to Shahmukhi unless the article can be expanded with a sourced mention of the way numbers are represented specifically in Hindko, anything short of of that is doing WP:OR by the back door. – Uanfala (talk) 00:51, 18 January 2020 (UTC)Reply[reply]

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

There's more than one Lagerwey in the world and this redirect inhibits Search. I'm not sure what the precedent is for redirecting a surname to the only article about a person with the surname, so here to discuss... Shhhnotsoloud (talk) 10:58, 12 January 2020 (UTC)Reply[reply]

• Keep: Appears to be a standard redirect from a surname as the target is the only bearer of the name who has an article. Searching online, I can't find any other Lagerweys besides the almost certainly non-notable company Lagerwey Wind. Glades12 (talk) 12:49, 12 January 2020 (UTC)Reply[reply]
• Keep. It's a valid ((R from surname)) (and also a ((R with history))) whose name is not ambiguous with other existing subjects on Wikipedia ... and if/when that changes, this title should become a disambiguation page (like it was prior to its only other existing entry being deleted.)

• Health centre (Malaysia) → Prostitution in Malaysia  (talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ] 

redirects to Prostitution in Malaysia, which doesn't seem appropriate. No discussion of health centres on that page Rathfelder (talk) 10:19, 12 January 2020 (UTC)Reply[reply]

• Delete Nothing links to the page except discussions about the page. On a side note, I have added a few words and a ref in Prostitution in Malaysia to cover "health centres". --John B123 (talk) 11:18, 12 January 2020 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Not mentioned at the target page. Not a very active user (talk) 07:28, 12 January 2020 (UTC)Reply[reply]

• Delete it cannot be a helpful redirect if not mentioned on target page. There are no other occurrences of "Tanglefoot bag" on Wikipedia, so no viable alternate targets. Additionally, could you possibly bundle the below redirects to the same page into this nomination? I suspect the same arguments hold for those redirects. BenKuykendall (talk) 08:31, 12 January 2020 (UTC)Reply[reply]
• Delete. This has come up previously, and was kept: [4], but since then very few people have actually searched for the term. I would assume that if someone wanted to know more about a tanglefoot bag, they would likely go to a D&D source rather than Wikipedia. SilkTork (talk) 16:46, 12 January 2020 (UTC)Reply[reply]

The result of the discussion was retarget to Foxfire. No support for persisting with the current target, and a plausible variant spelling of Fairy fire, making it certainly a reasonable synonym for Foxfire. ~ mazca ^talk 16:40, 19 January 2020 (UTC)Reply[reply]
