• It is wednesday my dudes → Lepidobatrachus laevis  (talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ] 

Not mentioned at the target; there is a meme associated with this phrase and often an image of the frog at the target, but unless there's a due mention at the target the redirect isn't useful.

  The level of coverage needed to satisfy WP:DUE would be mentions of the meme in high-quality RS coverage about the frog species. This doesn't appear to exist based on a few GScholar and internet searches. _signed, Rosguill ^talk 21:34, 1 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete Dead meme redirect which is likely to confuse readers, especially if they think Wikipedia might have an article on the meme itself (which it will not because of a lack of sources) and end up at a page for the frog.
• Delete per the above. If it redirected to somewhere on the page that made mention of this meme, then it might be more appropriate. However since it's more of a joke, it's not appropriate at all. ― Blaze Wolf^Talk_{Blaze Wolf#6545} 19:39, 3 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

AFAIK up to now there is no concrete statement. The subject certainly hasn't yet changed her surname.

Delete, unlikely redirect, considering the typo included (Guadacanal instead of Guadalcanal). Fram (talk) 08:23, 1 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep. Ironbottom Sound: The Guadalcanal Campaign (with the missing el) would be obviously correct as an ((r from full name)) and should be created. Guadacanal is a plausible misspelling; Guadacanal redirects to Guadalcanal, and there's even a neighborhood on Guadalcanal called Guadacanal Resort, suggesting that this may be a variant local spelling... Or that whoever wrote that unsourced article made a typo. So, the combination of two valid redirects adds up to a valid redirect.

  This is not about the topic. This is about how it is a redirect between Article namespace and Wikipedia namespace (And before you ask, no, Wikiproject is not a namespace. Putting any prefix other than those laid out in WP:Namespace on a page just puts it in article namespace). The same would go for any cross-namespace redirect, even those with notable topics.

• Template:User sandbo → User:Elon musk has no friends/sandbox2  (talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ] 

Suggest deleting Template:User sandbo. Looking at the template creator's name and the rest of this user's edits, all of their pages are probably vandalism and could arguably be deleted. One of the pages has a hidden HTML comment that says New Zealand is so mega gay and homo. But it's not a slam dunk so I thought it'd be simpler to just move this to userspace. Sadly though the redirect the template move left behind does not qualify for R2 since it is template namespace, so here we are at RFD. –Novem Linguae (talk) 07:04, 1 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Ah of course, for some reason I thought it was a portmanteau of "gay fascism", not "gay racism". Either way I think it's a bit of a neologism, and not something people are going to look up on Wikipedia. —AFreshStart (talk) 02:23, 18 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete the fact that the term can be found on Google is not relevant, except to the extent that any of the Google hits are WP:RS which could be used to expand some Wikipedia article. A redirect for a term needs to point readers to information in Wikipedia, and Wikipedia has no information about this term, not even a single mention.

Neither one of the target pages adequately identified what a "fish protein" is. I'm also not seeing any apparent retargeting options; I did see Fish protein powder, but I don't think that's an adequate target since it's a subtopic about the subject of these redirects rather than the subject itself.
