• Prince Charles → Charles III  (talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ] 

A significant amount of time has elapsed since Charles III became king, and he is no longer primarily referred to as Prince Charles.

• Keep, as others have pointed out he was known as Prince of Wales for considerably longer. The fact he's only been King for a sort time is actually the primary argument for keeping the redirect - his official duties and title for over 50 years was "Prince of Wales".

It seems this subject is mentioned sparingly at the target article, but not enough to warrant a redirect to the tastier or a section in the target if the reader is expecting to find specific information about the subject of these redirects. (The redirect Influences of other musical styles on Heavy Metal is a ((R with history)) that was WP:BLARed in 2006.) Steel1943 (talk) 18:06, 4 April 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

• Weak retarget to Heavy metal music#Antecedents: 1950s to late 1960s, which discusses the genres that influenced the formation of heavy metal music. Note that Heavy metal music#Relationship with classical music does mention that heavy metal is greatly influenced by classical music as well, and it seems plausible to me that heavy metal was/is influenced by other genres long after its creation. (Unlike in the previous RfD, this redirect seems unambiguous, so this should be a more straightforward close.) Duckmather (talk) 14:53, 9 April 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

• Delete. This should be a section at Heavy metal music. Refining to 1950s-1960s is not ideal. Were there no influences post 1970, regardless of whether the article mentions it? Addition of the word "early" to the redirect title would have made sense if refining to 1950s-1960s, and again the title would become long and convoluted like Early influences of music styles on Heavy Metal, or something similar. The pre-BLAR content is not significant to be retained. Jay 💬 07:08, 25 April 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]
