Comment@AldezD: not being linked to is not a reason to deleted a redirect as they can and are used in other ways. Nor is the user who created them (except in some of the criteria for speedy deletion). It would be helpful if you gave more specific rationale in your nominations.

Support No clear WP:primarytopic apparent.Keep The rapture article describes different kinds of rapture, and consistently uses lowercase, so "rapture" is not the primary topic for the proper noun "The Rapture". Paradoctor (talk) 18:30, 21 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
@Paradoctor: Unless I'm mistaken Hog Farm is suggesting changing the target from the disambiguation page torapture as they feel there is a primary topic, so it's not clear what you mean here? A7V2 (talk) 03:14, 22 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose. No WP:PTOPIC or WP:PRIMARYREDIRECT, therefore the DAB page is the best target. This will also minimise the frequency with which Rapture collects bad inlinks. Narky Blert (talk) 15:29, 22 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Procedural close as a case of Nomination is an immediate objection to a prior deletion outcome, more appropriate for deletion review.

Retarget' to Weightlifting per Paradoctor. All individual unicode characters outside the private use area are plausible search terms and should be blue links if there is an article about the character or what it represents. Thryduulf (talk) 22:49, 26 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I find it interesting to point out that weight lifter, the official name of the emoji, does redirect to Olympic weightlifting. I guess it's because someone who partakes in e.g. powerlifting would just be called a powerlifter instead, but it's something to think about. In any case, this emoji could reasonably be taken to represent the simple action of lifting weights, rather than a specific athlete, so I agree with retarget, though weakly. eviolite(talk) 04:21, 28 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Comment The target articles were improperly created by copy/paste by Kevo327 back in June 2021. However, all content is trivial (apparently created by unauthorized bot by Carlossuarez46), and the only prose amounts to "X is a village in Y district of Azerbaijan". So, the best course of action is to WP:PAGESWAP to preserve history, then delete the implausible redirects. No such user (talk) 09:17, 1 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Tamzin: I spot-checked Qışlaq, Lachin so I presumed that was the case with the others. Actually, Çiyni [1] and Təzəkənd [2] were converted from dab pages, and Ağkənd created from scratch [3] in 2016 by Parishan. In all of those cases, I suppose copy/paste/modify technique was involved, (no wrongdoing implied, I do that myself with such boilerplate stubs) and the original articles IMO fell short of the "threshold of originality" (apparently having been created from a template), so I'd recommend pure delete of those redirects instead – there's no history worth preserving.

These should target the same article. There is a little more information in the former, but the Dagenham Dock extension is an proposal that almost definitely will not be happening, while the Thamesmead extension is a proposal that is not going to progress in the short term and may or may not in the long term. Beckton Riverside is currently a redirect (nominated for deletion at Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion/Log/2022 February 4#Beckton Riverside) to Beckton, but neither that article nor any other I've found contains any significant information about the development or either proposed station, let alone both.

Retarget to Hrvoje Čale, the sole surname-bearer. And it is not a common surname, so there is no pressing need to be "future-proof". I will move Hrvoje's entry at Cale (surname) from the list proper to "See also" section, his surname is neither pronounced like, nor etymologically connected, with the English one.
