Currently redirects to the overpass with the nickname of "The Can Opener". In my opinion, Can opener would be a better target as, while having 25 less average daily page views than the overpass article, it is far more notable. Figured this could go either way, especially considering factors like the fact that the redirect is in Title Case, so I'm starting this discussion. iWillBanU (User:Mattx8y) what did i fuck up now 18:51, 20 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep: for me it's not about the capitals, but the 'The'. I don't think readers are looking for can opener and starting their search with a definite article. Firefangledfeathers (talk) 19:01, 20 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep as-is. The hatnote on can opener will get readers to what they're looking for. It strikes me as very implausible that any reader interested in the topic of devices for opening cans (which in the very earliest days included hammer and chisel) would start their search query "the".

- The result of the discussion was retarget to Reform (disambiguation). (non-admin closure) Qwerfjkltalk 09:48, 27 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Many other things than religion can be reformed; including but not limited to to bands, criminals, legal systems and petroleum. Retarget to DAB page Reform (disambiguation) as ((R from ambiguous term)). Narky Blert (talk) 12:54, 20 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- Retarget per nom. As an observation, the Reform (disambiguation) page could do with some attention, I'm not sure I've seen a disambiguation page with that many see alsos before. Thryduulf (talk) 14:22, 20 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- @Thryduulf: I have, almost, in 2018. At least all SAs bar one in Reform (disambiguation) bear plausible relations to the title and belong on the page. I've made a note to tidy it up. Narky Blert (talk) 18:36, 20 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- Retarget to Reform (disambiguation) per nom and Thryduulf. Although Calvinism does appear in the first Google search results for the term, I don't really see a reason why it should be the primary topic, given the many other uses and ambiguity. Regards, SONIC678 20:18, 20 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

This is a series of SpongeBob shorts that aired in November 2006, which isn't mentioned anywhere on Wikipedia at the target since the section wasn't restored after being removed more than a year later. It also has an erroneous ((R from section)) that The Transhumanist added in 2018. Regards, SONIC678 05:02, 20 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Orphan and delete. This recently-created redirect has been used only one time (by its creator) and is extremely implausible either as a misspelling or abbreviation of the target. Having unreadable abbreviations in Wiki markup just makes it harder to understand, which is not worth the benefit of saving four keystrokes in typing out the far-more-understandable English word "update". For comparison, see Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion/Log/2021 October 5#Template:Reimprove where we deleted a much more plausible misspelling. 61.239.39.90 (talk) 03:58, 20 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Procedural nom for IP, with rationale The former disambiguation redirect page it was already moved for the Philippine place page.
Malita is (no longer) a DAB. User:力 (power~enwiki, π, ν) 02:03, 20 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- This seems to be speedy deletable as a G14 useless disambiguation page. Oiyarbepsy (talk) 07:23, 20 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

The "slogan" doesn't actually appear in the target page. This doesn't seem like a reasonable redirect to have. — Mikehawk10 (talk) 01:16, 20 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete: It is mentioned in quite a few sources from a quick search, so it seems reasonable to have it mentioned somewhere, but since it isn't mentioned anywhere in Wikipedia currently, it is unhelpful to readers who search for the term. - CHAMPION (talk) (contributions) (logs) 02:21, 20 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

No evidence of this stylisation. - CHAMPION (talk) (contributions) (logs) 00:01, 20 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep as helpful, odd nomination statement as there absolutely is evidence of this stylisation as a 10-second search would reveal. Frequently searched up here as well. No reason for inconveniencing the reader here. Looks at first to be ambiguous with The Belgian U2 Experience but that is U2be rather than U2BE. — J947 ‡ message ⁓ edits 00:45, 20 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- @J947: If I'm not mistaken there is a chance that the acronym etc. websites are simply copying this usage from Wikipedia, a Google search for the term minus Wikipedia only brings up 52 unique hits and most of them aren't using it as a synonym for YouTube. - CHAMPION (talk) (contributions) (logs) 02:19, 20 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- @Champion: Huh, it says 93,600 results and only displays 58/59. There's still the matter of the pageviews however. — J947 ‡ message ⁓ edits 04:23, 20 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- @J947: Then, you can't be sure people looking this term will be helped by the current target, and given I'm not seeing much evidence that other sources are using it as a synonym for YouTube, I'm inclined to believe that they won't. - CHAMPION (talk) (contributions) (logs) 04:35, 20 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- I doubt they are looking for other targets in significant numbers, and in consideration of the circumstances I think it would be better to keep it as it is. But YMMV. — J947 ‡ message ⁓ edits 04:40, 20 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep This does not appear to be a common way to refer to YouTube, yet as a redirect it is harmless. I did not identify any other notable targets for the redirect, so keeping it as is seems reasonable. ―NK1406 02:22, 21 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
