• German Wine Fund → de:Deutscher Weinfonds  (talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ] 

pretty sure interwiki redirects are not allowed? If the fund is notable it should be redlinked. (t · c) buidhe 23:04, 26 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Sure?

A soft redirect is a replacement of usual or "hard" redirect and is used where the destination is a Wikimedia sister project

• Delete those soft redirects are meant for things like wiktionary and wikiquote (though equally ridiculous). If we allowed redirects to other lang projects we'd have a billion redirects to subjects that wouldn't qualify under enwiki's inclusion criteria. PRAXIDICAE🌈 23:40, 26 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete per WP:Soft redirect, Soft redirects to non-English language editions of Wikipedia should be avoided because they are generally unhelpful to English-language readers. * Pppery * _{it has begun...} 23:50, 26 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  I stand corrected, Pppery, thanks. I see that guideline was introduced over 13 years ago, and seems outdated at this day and age of ubiquitous automated webpage translation tools. Redirecting to non-enwikis wouldn't produce "billion redirects", as Praxidicae imagined; only those not already covered by an English article (such as the German Wine Fund), and that, as she correctly pointed out, would "qualify under enwiki's inclusion criteria" (but that's a discussion to have there, not here). — Guarapiranga ☎ 01:29, 27 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Close nomination as improper. "Georgia State Route 243" is not a redirect to be discussed. It seems that the IP wants to merge the existing article into the list, and this isn't the forum for that. Imzadi 1979 → 19:43, 26 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

• Armée de Hollande → Batavian Republic  (talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ] 

Not mentioned at the target, based on Google Scholar search results, Armee de Hollande appears to be a military grouping of the French forces during the Napoleonic Wars, but isn't currently mentioned anywhere on Wikipedia except in a list at French Revolutionary Army. Unless someone can find a due place to add information about it on Wikipedia, deletion seems like the best option, although redirecting to French Revolutionary Army could also work. _signed, Rosguill ^talk 19:07, 18 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

• Royal Antigua and Barbuda Defence Force → Antigua and Barbuda Defence Force  (talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ] 

The Defence Force of Antigua and Barbuda doesn't use "Royal" as prefix in its name. Peter Ormond 💬 13:47, 18 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete. I couldn't hit the ABDF web site to see what they say about their history, but a Google search finds nothing (except for Wikipedia mirrors and other user-created sites) showing that they were ever called the Royal ABDF. —C.Fred (talk) 14:01, 18 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep per WP:RFD#K4. Article appears to have been at this title from creation in 2002 until April 2022, 20 years (there's some mess in the history due to a histmerge and some vandalism, certainly uninterrupted since 2009 at the very least). So we run the risk of breaking links, in particular external links but in this case many internal talk page links as well. There is also no requirement for redirects to be correct. Also certainly a plausible search term given that other commonwealth defence forces have similar names with "Royal", and the police force is known as the Royal Police Force of Antigua and Barbuda for example (which is correct).

It seem's that CROIX correctly moved it to Antigua and Barbuda Defence Force on 2022 April 13 per the move log and a redirect was left-over from the move. TartarTorte 13:18, 21 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
