I doubt someone would actually be typing in the entire Gull eggs as food, rather than Gull eggs. It's implausible as a redirect. EggRoll97 (talk) 23:22, 2 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Talk:Mike Duff

The result of the discussion was Speedy retarget to Talk:Michael Duff. I am closing this early for three reasons. Firstly this listing is malformed as the template was placed on the talk page rather than the redirect itself. Secondly, the nom doesn't explicitly advocate anything. Finally, it seems clear that the goal (eg see discussion at Talk:Michael Duff (footballer)#Requested move 2 August 2023) was to change the target of Mike Duff to the dab page Michael Duff, which has already taken place and doesn't seem controversial. A7V2 (talk) 02:23, 3 August 2023 (UTC) (non-admin closure)[reply]

An association footballer (Michael Duff (footballer) is sometimes referred to as "Mike Duff" in some sources which seems to make the redirect from Mike Duff to Michelle Duff misleading, particularly if any Swans fans want to search for Mike Duff and ends up at the wrong page. (I've initially requested moving using the requested move template but opted to do this discussion as the better option after advice from two editors.)

No mention of "lawn mower" in article. Can't find any mention online. Don't believe lawn mower is a poker term. :3 F4U (they/it) 20:12, 2 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - when I search for "lawn mower poker" on Google, the results come up with people using lawn mowers or those not operated. Therefore this redirect makes no sense. Iggy (Swan) (Contribs) 21:05, 2 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect points to a subsection of the Carroll article which was later removed. An article on Barron was deleted at AfD in 2008, and he appears to be mentioned nowhere else in article space. --Finngall talk 16:01, 2 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Retarget to Isometric projection. "Isometric perspective" can refer to more than just video games. The disambiguation page Isometric synonymizes it with isometric projection, which I argue is the proper target. –CopperyMarrow15 (talk) 01:44, 18 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was keep. To advocate the slang as the primary topic, a WP:RM may be started. Jay 💬 07:49, 10 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I would argue that in the English language, this is more likely to refer to Vatnik (slang). (Note that "vatniks" is a redirect to "Vatnik (slang)", so why would the plural form redirect to a different page to the singular?

There also seems to be a substantial talk page on there that probably ought to be merged to Talk:Telogreika. GnocchiFan (talk) 21:29, 15 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Support: When I google “vatnik”, I literally only get results about the slang term, which occasionally mention the jacket meaning for context at the beginning of the explanation of the slang. Seems like the original niche meaning about a Soviet wadded jacket has been mostly replaced by the more popular slang in English. HappyWith (talk) 14:05, 2 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Constitutional democracy

The following is an archived discussion concerning one or more redirects. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on an appropriate discussion page (such as the redirect's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this section.
The result of the discussion was no consensus. There was minimal participation in this discussion (excluding the blocked IP), and the only participant was hesitant to !vote to retarget. However, there was agreement that the redirect should not stand as-is. Hence, retargeting to option 2 Constitution#Democratic constitutions which found favour. Jay 💬 06:32, 9 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

This redirect was the result of an ancient merge way back in 2008, and both respective talk pages have banners regarding this history. The target has changed significantly since that merge and does not actually even mention the phrase "constitutional democracy". Furthermore, I don't think these terms are synonymous, and looking at "What links here" I'm not convinced all its uses intend to link to Liberal democracy. I think it's time to reconsider the target. I'm not sure about the best target.

  1. The first option is Democracy, much as Constitutional republic redirects to Republic. Democracy doesn't use to the exact phrase either, but it otherwise seems like a less surprising target.
  2. A second option is Constitution § Democratic constitutions, which has more specific coverage of the topic.
  3. A third option is Representative democracy which does mention the exact phrase, although these topics also aren't synonymous; however, it would be less surprising than Liberal democracy.
I'm currently leaning towards to the second, as it seems the most relevant in terms of actual content regardless of phrasing.
If others are concerned about incoming links that do intend to link to liberal democracy, a ((redirect)) hatnote could be added to retarget destination to ensure it isn't a problem. (Though personally, I doubt it's needed.) – Scyrme (talk) 18:23, 15 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Block evasion.
The following discussion has been closed. Please do not modify it.
  • All true, but I would suggest an even broader redirect choice (and regardless of small/capital letters): Constitutional Democracy; Constitutional Republic; Democracy Constitution; Republic Constitution; Representative Democracy; Republic; Types of Democracy; the list goes on.
Redirect 'choices' like those in bold should be grouped as direct, while others be referred to via links in many other articles, as e.g. in "(Types of) Democracy".
Alternatively, 'republic' choices could be inbuilt in the header like Democracy / Republic, while only one of them would be sufficient to get there.
Please visit Draft:Constitutional Democracy to see the true extent, incl. identical original meanings of "democracy" & "republic".
It appears that some vested interests play dirty tricks and pre-determine this discussion by removing it from the redirect page, simply by re-christening the "Constitutional democracy" redirect (originally to "Liberal Democracy"; under above discussion) now as "Constitutional Democracy" (manually redirected also to above draft), but also directly to 'Liberal Democracy" now in a tick... UDC author (talk) 02:42, 17 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • The redirect header is fixed on "Liberal Democracy", although there exists a Draft:Constitutional Democracy dealing far more precisely with this specific topic; Could you please add this redirect option to enable thorough redirect discussion?... ( 'Liberal'(unregulated laissez-faire)'Democracy' is a self-interest invention, as it literally includes anarchy, while commonly meaning status-quo of present hidden dictatorships ... Copied from Draft_talk:Constitutional_Democracy: Liberal democracy and constitutional democracy have different meanings when strictly observing the word senses that compose those terms. -- Reply: Your last sentence regarding the word sense of "liberal (unregulated) democracy" deals with such a problem, too; It covers the common status-quo non-democratic minority rule, because organised bully-boys would enforce more liberty for themselves than for others...).

That draft looks to essentially be a personal political manifesto, the extended version of which is linked on the talk page (a .pdf file on Google Drive). It's not adequately referenced, not neutral, and appears to be full of opinion/original research. The intent of it seems not here to write an encyclopedic article, rather it's more concerned with righting great wrongs.
It was moved to draft space precisely because it's not ready to be seen by general readers; even looking past these problems (among others), redirecting readers to it defeats the point of keeping it in draft space. This is not the proper place to discuss whether that article ought to be moved into main article space.
Please do not derail this discussion about the target of the redirect in order to promote personal political views. – Scyrme (talk) 05:24, 21 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
The draft itself is the extended version with references as well as multiple direct WP links. It is written in a very compressed way with some German-influenced grammar for extra precision, thus differing from established WP style(s); It is neutral, although it may have some style shortcomings that are meant to be corrected in this draft space with constructive criticism by WP activists and knowledgeable public who has specific practical knowledge in different-languages countries; It has already public access. By its very topic-nature it implicitly unavoidably uncovers partly unintended shortcomings of countries' constitutions regarding their democracy safeguards, also backed-up by recent WP news from Israel & Greece, with imbedded links. Above all, it hits the topic precisely & literally, unlike the indeed biased redirect "Liberal Democracy" article (German Wikipedia explicitly defines it as being guaranteed by a constitution, unlike English language use!)... Therefore it is the appropriate alternative option to this redirect. I created this draft directly as such ― it was never "moved" there!
Please leave this info for fellow WP activists to decide, too; It will also be published elsewhere... 210.48.190.71 (talk) 00:40, 22 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was Keep/retarget. Consensus has developed after the third relist. The only one that actually needs to be retargeted is Combat Jujitsu. (non-admin closure) Skarmory (talk • contribs) 04:24, 8 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Inconsistent targets. WP:DIFFCAPS may apply but would favour the Brazilian invention for the proper noun and generic jujutsu for sentence case, whereas current targets make the opposite distinction. A dab like Combat judo is one possibility. Certes (talk) 18:16, 9 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was retarget to Fanta#International availability. Jay 💬 06:45, 9 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

There was a clear RM discussion on this, which said to revert the recent page move and ideally put new information relating to this drink in Fanta, but that leaves the redirect in an awkward position. Should it target the previous brand of Lilt, which has the history of the drink up to it being acquired, or should it target Fanta, which is the brand which the drink is currently under and the article where future content will go (if any, which I find somewhat unlikely given the lack of coverage on flavors there)? (Side note: if retargeted to Fanta, it should target the section Fanta#International availability, as that currently holds the paragraph about the acquiring of Lilt.)

If it's going to redirect to a single article, I think it should be to Fanta. The clear outcome of the discussion as to what to call the Lilt article was that that article should be left to deal with the discontinued brand, and any new information that might be added in relation to the new Fanta flavour should be added to the Fanta page. In those circumstances it wouldn't make sense for Fanta Pineapple and Grapefruit to redirect to Lilt. Gatepainter (talk) 12:53, 27 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  • @Gatepainter: I think a disambiguation page isn't really suitable since this term is not itself ambiguous. If the new product is going to be discussed at Fanta (which it currently is) then I think that is the most suitable target (the section I mentioned above as well as bolding the usage) as it has a link to lilt as well for anyone who wanted the article about the old product.
