Not mentioned at the target, all usage of this phrase that I was able to find online or on Google Scholar seems to use this as a generic phrase for a regime that succeeds a prior regime; deletion thus seems like the best course of action. signed, Rosguill talk 21:15, 6 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

This is a follow-up to an WP:AFC/R I recently declined. It makes no sense to be redirected to a section that is literally empty, so one searching for information about a specific year will not find it at the target. If we treat these as numbers, this group is not mentioned at 2000 (number)#2500 to 2599. Because they are not even significant as numbers, I say delete. -- Tavix (talk) 20:59, 6 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Q - Does anyone else get pissed off by the fact that attempting to edit a section in RFD often opens another section altogether? It took me four goes to post in this one. Narky Blert (talk) 21:12, 6 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
If a new section is created in the time between the page initally being loaded and you clicking edit, the "counter" gets messed up and takes you to the wrong section. Because I was nominating all these individually and then bundling, that's why you kept getting the wrong section. My sincere apologies for pissing you off. -- Tavix (talk) 21:31, 6 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, I recently removed the target section, regarding a short-lived console called digiBlast. The only sources given failed verification, and the product seems to fail WP:GNG, as I found only initial announcements and WP:SPS on the internet. The latter was a short-lived article created fairly recently, which can be taken to AfD if needed. –LaundryPizza03 (dc̄) 04:12, 30 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Aureolus Theophrastus Bombastes Paracelsus

The result of the discussion was no consensus. signed, Rosguill talk 04:15, 20 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not at all experienced with RfD's, but I believe that this redirect to Theophrastus Bombastus von Hohenheim's (Paracelsus') uncommon middle name 'Aureolus' should be deleted: it makes it unreasonably difficult for users to find people properly named Aureolus, such as Aureolus, Aureolus of Aragon, or Petrus Aureolus (now reachable at Aureolus, Petrus). Paracelsus is duly listed at Aureolus (disambiguation), so on the off chance that someone would be searching for him under that name they only need to follow the DAB link in the hatnotes of the other Aureolus pages. ☿ Apaugasma (talk ☉) 09:02, 30 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

However, I see another possible argument. The target page gives "Philippus Aureolus Theophrastus Bombastus von Hohenheim" as the full name, so the redirect is omitting the "von Hohenheim". Do we "autocomplete" last names based on reasonably unambiguous first names? I would have thought we do not, but the first example I searched for is Paul Adrien Maurice which does redirect to Paul Dirac, so... TigraanClick here for my talk page ("private" contact) 15:59, 31 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Yesterday, typing in "Aureolus" would show the redirect under discussion directly after Aureolus (the primary topic) but would suggest neither Petrus Aureolus nor Aureolus (disambiguation). However, creating the redirect Aureolus, Petrus for some reason now makes it also show Aureolus (disambiguation) and show our Paracelsus redirect as the last option. I think I've learned here that sometimes it actually works better to create a redirect than to delete one. As for your other possible argument, wouldn't that be better solved by moving it? Perhaps Aureolus Theophrastus Bombastus von Hohenheim Paracelsus? Or maybe just Aureolus Paracelsus is better (Aureolus is a middle name anyways, and Paracelsus the most recognizable part of his name)? I'm still asking rather than withdrawing because I'm inexperienced with this and would appreciate other editors' comments. Thanks, ☿ Apaugasma (talk ☉) 19:13, 31 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

There used to be a redirect under this title pointing at University of California, Berkeley. Someone removed the redirect and wrote an article under this title, but the article was later moved to the draft namespace and this title then became a redirect to the draft namespace.

Redirect name is "John S. Slocum" whereas the discoverer's name according to the source listed in our article is "John L. Slocum", making it an implausible typo. The only reason I didn't nominate this under criterion 3 for speedy deletion is that it stipulates "recent", whereas this was created in 2009. Exacerbating this, John S. Slocum was a Union Army colonel who may be notable enough to warrant their own article. TheTechnician27 (Talk page) 01:49, 19 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

But none of those articles come up in the first page of 20 search results, due to the other more prominent individuals with that last name. For anyone who happens to use the middle initial when entering the name, it would be better to point to the single place that has the most information and then link as much as possible to these other relevant articles, until someone wants to create a stub. Regardless of outcome here, though, it seems like a dab at John Slocum (disambiguation) with appropriate hatnotes targeting it is needed. Mdewman6 (talk) 19:56, 6 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Long term, I think a stub is the best solution, but maybe we should consider whether the regiment article would be a better target than the fort article? But I don't think deletion is best given my above comment. Mdewman6 (talk) 20:00, 6 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
They do if you type "John S. Slocum" (with the quotes). Shhhnotsoloud (talk) 12:54, 7 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Hmmm, the regiment article isn't coming up for me with the quotes. In any case, most searchers are not going to use advanced search strategies like that. Better to send them somewhere with some content that has links to other content. Mdewman6 (talk) 16:30, 7 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
You are right about the regiment article, as the name mentioned there is "Colonel Slocum" and "John Slocum". The fort article too mentions "Colonel John Slocum", and would not have turned up in the search results if it was not for the photo caption. Jay (Talk) 17:00, 7 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Proposing for deletion. Reasons: (1) There's no evidence that this term is used to mean Space Western. When this was an article, there was only one obscure source that used it that way, and that's now seven years further out of date. (2) It results in the clutter of a hatnote on the Space Western page and provides some legitimacy to the phrase, which isn't otherwise used. (3) All the reasons given the last time this was proposed for deletion, back when it was an article. There was a clear majority for deleting. How that was translated to a redirect isn't at all clear to me. Dan Bloch (talk) 03:21, 27 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
