• One Minute Closer to Death → Death Magnetic  (talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ] 

No assistance to navigation. Probably a rumoured title before release. Failed to find any reference to this title at target, nor at any other page. If there is a better target I have missed, I would remain in favour of retargetting. Richhoncho (talk) 20:50, 2 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

• Weak redirect to Ranking Roger, maybe? QuickQuokka ^{[⁠talk • contribs]} 22:37, 2 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete and do not retarget to the above suggestion. In the absence of a plausible target, the best solution is to delete this. We don't want to confuse readers who may end up in an article where there's no mention whatsoever of the title in question. CycloneYoris ^talk! 20:55, 9 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

• Wiffle(r)ball → Wiffle ball  (talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ] 

The difficulty/unlikeliness of typing the registered trademark symbol, the lack of a space, and the fact that the concept predates the trademark make these redirects unlikely, unhelpful, and possibly misleading. Steel1943 (talk) 22:18, 9 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete. The logo on the official website does show the ® symbol after "Wiffle" but not especailly prominently. On first use on other pages the symbol is inlcuded - e.g. the welcome page begins "Dear WIFFLE® Enthusiast:". However usage on the news page includes "[T]he WIFFLE ® Ball was inducted into the National Toy Hall of Fame." with that spacing. Putting all this together I don't think that the unspaced registered trade mark symbol is a likely search term. Thryduulf (talk) 22:43, 9 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. Missleading in templates such as Template:Events at the 2017 European Youth Summer Olympic Festival. Should be deleted to provoke page creation. CLalgo (talk) 13:45, 2 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep - valid redirect, and to preserve page history. Onel5969 ^{TT me} 14:41, 2 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
• Neutral On one hand, there shouldn't be an article about this, per WP:NOTDATABASE (and due to the fact that no other content seems to exist about this). On the other, even if properly targeted, this is an unlikely search term (giving this is a rather unlikely topic as well), and there is no content about this (other than a line in the sports-by-sports medal table) at the target article (which is itself not much better than a database entry). Removing the redirect would not remove any functionality or valuable content (previous versions of this redirect are entirely unsourced); though at the same time keeping it is a redirect to discourage article creation is also a valid concern.

• Revert to the article per WP:BLAR. The objection to the previous article content was one editor disputing notability, the redirect has been objected to with an assertion that it is notable. The place to determine the answer to questions of notability of articles is AfD not RfD. The article was partially sourced, not completely unsourced so the assertion that there is nothing that would help writing a sourced article is incorrect. Thryduulf (talk) 22:49, 9 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
• Restore and AfD per Thryduulf. I don't feel that it is appropriate as a redirect however since there is next to no information at the target (so second preference delete I suppose). A7V2 (talk) 03:07, 10 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

• Nasty Party → Theresa May#Early Parliamentary career  (talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ] 

Appears to have originally been an article retargeted to Conservatism in the United Kingdom but changed to the current target without discussion. Theresa May popularised the phrase, but it isn't really in relation to her. Suggest Restore per Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Nasty Party or retarget to somewhere more appropriate as WP:RNEUTRAL. Bonoahx (talk) 10:41, 23 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete entirely. The original redirect doesn't mention the phrase "Nasty Party" at all (and such a redirect seems borderline PoV/disruptive). The Theresa May reference at least mentions the phrase, but I don't see it being notable enough for this redirect ot exist. — Czello 11:18, 23 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep as is, or restore: It certainly is a known and probably notable expression enough and probably ought to be included in Conservatism in the United Kingdom—it is used routinely in discussions around British politics to describe the shifts in positioning of the UK's political parties (i.e. following shifts in public attitudes and Howard's failure in the 2005 General Election, the Conservative Party moving away from social conservatism and towards the social liberalism of the David Cameron/George Osborne years). Examples of it being used: Guardian 2002, Independent 2021, BBC 2002, BBC 2008, BBC 2021, BBC 2021 again LabourList 2016. The neutrality argument here seems weak—the phrase is associated with Theresa May. The redirect does not say to the reader "Theresa May is a nasty party" nor "Theresa May is a member of a nasty party". If you read it like that, the neutrality argument would also apply if to any other redirect target (e.g. the Conservative Party or 'Conservatism in the UK'). Redirecting any political slogan or expression could have an obtuse interpretation, but we should assume a sensible reader who can grasp a modicum of nuance. —Tom Morris (talk) 12:47, 23 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep. A plausible search term that's discussed in sufficient depth at the target article, which is about the person who introduced the term into mainstream political discourse. WP:RNEUTRAL, which the nominator cites, explicitly contradicts their argument. – Arms & Hearts (talk) 12:49, 4 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  I did not make my rationale particularly clear - my thought process was that it could be redirected to Conservatism in the United Kingdom or Conservative Party (UK) as a non-neutral representation of the Tory party. The keep arguments are a good rebuttal to that but just thought I'd try to make myself clear. Bonoahx (talk) 19:52, 9 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

• Department of Finance → Finance minister  (talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ] 

I'm really not sure what the proper process is for converting a redirect to a dismabiguation page so forgive me if I'm in the wrong place here. Currently, Department of Finance redirects to finance minister. I believe however that this page would serve much better as a disambiguation page for a considerable number of Departments of Finance throughout the world. See here for search results.

• This is the right place. Convert to set index per nom, I'll see if I can draft one shortly. eviolite (talk) 16:34, 9 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  Actually, while drafting it I found this section Ministry of Finance#Named "Department" that already lists ministries of finance called "Department", which serves largely the same purpose. Retarget there instead. eviolite (talk) 16:38, 9 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
