Neither of these redirects' target articles contain the redirects' phrases or the word "transitional". Both target articles each include one instance of the word "transitions", but not necessarily in reference to "jobs" or "work". I've bundled these together due to their edit histories; about 15 years ago, these all essentially targeted the same place, but over time, editors and bots found a way to both have these redirects target different targets and leave editors scratching their heads trying to figure out how or why these terms would redirect readers to either of the current target articles.

• I like Presidentman's disambiguation. Edward-Woodrow :) _[talk] 14:44, 18 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete - If there are no sources using these words in the target articles, than these terms shouldn't point to them. Additionally, "transition" generally means change from A to B, and so this seems ridiculous to even be used for employment terms. To my knowledge, people don't get a middle job to help them change from one to another; they may start an apprenticeship, but I don't believe this would ever be described as a "transition" job.---Avatar317^(talk) 05:07, 20 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
• Disambiguation per Presidentman seems reasonable. I would add to that disambiguation page vocational rehabilition (which mostly means easing the partially disabled back into the workforce) and rehabilitative employment (finding usually short-term work for ex-convicts), but I'm not sure we have any articles on these. Maybe we do; the terminology seems to vary wildly by agency.  — SMcCandlish ☏ ¢ 😼  12:44, 23 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete judging from a Google search the most common usage of the term is for when an injured or sick employee returns to work and is given adjusted duties to account for the injury or sickness.[3] That's not covered by any of the targets suggested above. I don't think the phrase "transitional work" really applies to many of them, for example temporary work usually isn't used to transition from something to something else. Nor do we seem to have any evidence that anybody uses these phrases as synonyms for those terms. Hut 8.5 12:13, 7 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete. This isn't actually an ambiguous topic, it's that the topic is (supposedly) covered by multiple articles. Therefore, this would be a broad-concept article, not a disambiguation. However, I'm in agreement with Hut 8.5 that even if we list these various articles, this isn't really covered by any of those options. I'd prefer to see a WP:REDLINK-like deletion, freeing the page for an article if anyone is up for the challenge. -- Tavix ^(talk) 19:31, 13 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete now and create a BCA later. On the pre-BLAR content of Transitional work, it was an essay and would be deleted anyway per the BLAR comment Even if it's not, it still reads like an essay and would get deleted anyway.

• 2023 USSC ethics disclosures → Supreme Court of the United States#Ethics  (talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ] 

This is an unlikely and misleading search term. The reference discussing "disclosures" at the target is from 2022, not 2023, so the specificity of the year makes this problematic and unhelpful. The section is about revelations of failures to disclose details from prior years that came to light more recently, and does not include information about ethical disclosures made in 2023 as this redirect would imply. The only content related to 2023 were the revelations about Clarence Thomas, which are described in more detail at Clarence Thomas#Nondisclosure of gifts, real estate sale, and wife's income. Finally, USSC is not a common initialism for the target, at least not as prevalent as SCOTUS. All of this combined makes this unlikely to be useful. Mdewman6 (talk) 23:20, 3 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

USSC isn't as common as SCOTUS but that doesn't mean its use can't be anticipated. I agree with the rest of your points. Largoplazo (talk) 23:33, 3 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

• Javanese Dragon → Dragon  (talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ] 

Not mentioned in the target article, leaving the connection between the redirect and the target article's subject unclear. For the history of the redirect, it looks like this redirect was a stub article for about a day in 2012 prior to being merged (per this edit) into the target article; however, it does not look like there's anything in the target article that resembles what was in this redirect formerly. Steel1943 (talk) 19:13, 3 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

• Suggest retargeting to Mythology of Indonesia. This article seems to have had useful content at the time of its creation, and the only justification I can see for its merging into "dragon" so soon after that is that it was quite short and in need of improvement. But since the subject isn't covered there, and there's no reason why it shouldn't be re-created by someone with more expertise in the subject, it might be best to target it to an appropriate alternative. I briefly looked for more specific articles having to do with Javanese religion/mythology, but didn't see anything involving dragons, although Mythology of Indonesia does mention dragons. Or it could be recreated with its former text, but that looks to be in need of considerable improvement, and the subject is far enough beyond my scope of knowledge that I'm not confident I could make it acceptable. But of course, articles don't need to be perfect, and there is no deadline for improving them. So restoring the pre-merger version would be my second choice. P Aculeius (talk) 12:06, 4 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
• Having had a look into this, I think the reason it's hard to find much discussion of this is that it there is actually no such thing. I oppose the suggested target of Mythology of Indonesia since there is no discussion of dragons in Javanese mythology specifically, so someone searching this would not find anything useful. I am neutral between retargeting to Nāga#Indonesia (see the photos there for the dragon-like non-dragons; this appears to be what the original article was about) or restoring the original article.

• Two-headed dragon → Dragon  (talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ] 

Surprisingly enough, these concepts are not defined in the target article which identifies these concepts specifically. There are a few examples of multiple-headed dragons mentioned in the target article, in addition to one image of a multiple headed dragon being present in the target article, but I don't think that is enough to warrant these redirects targeting this page since there concepts are not specifically defined. In addition, there is an article with a subject that is probably the most related to these concepts, Polycephaly, but I did not see an appropriate place to retarget these redirects. Steel1943 (talk) 19:22, 3 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep where they are. These are plausible search terms, and while the target article may not discuss the concept specifically, readers who are redirected there might be expected to find the mentions that are there, and realize that there is no independent content under those titles as a result of the redirects. That may prompt editors to research the topic and write about it, either under "dragon" or under one of the redirects, which would be a good thing. I don't see any benefit to simply deleting the redirects. Conceivably readers might be looking for information on dragons in heraldry, or in fantastic literature (the Dungeons & Dragons version of Tiamat comes to mind), but "dragon" is probably the safest target unless someone wants to create an article under one of these titles. I don't think readers are as likely to be looking for polycephaly; that doesn't look like a good alternative to the present target or simply building an article out of one of the redirects.

• Delete per nom, and potentially WP:REDYES/WP:RFD#D10. If we started with the assumption that we must have a redirect for everything someone can plausibly search then yes, the current target is best. However that is not the case. There is very little about multiheaded dragons specifically in Dragon, and the existence of these redirects creates the false impression that there is such specific discussion. Anyone searching this will certainly still find dragon, and may well be searching this after having already read dragon. A7V2 (talk) 02:34, 10 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep. Both redirects get a handful of clicks every month by pageview and Dragon has the broadest coverage for multi-headed dragons (14 by my count), though no two-headed ones. When I search "multi-headed dragon" the Dragon article doesn't top the list though it should, and the redirect will help that. However, I'm not familiar enough with how the Wikipedia search works to know if the reason the Dragon article isn't at the top of the list is because the redirect exists. ― Synpath 00:33, 12 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep per the above, and also tag ((R with possibilities)). We could, I suppose, have an article solely on two-or-more-headed dragons, but it doesn't exist yet, and I see no clamor to create one.

Neither of these redirects are mentioned in the target article, leaving the connection between the redirects and the target articles subject unclear. In addition, both of these redirects formerly targeted Many-finned sea serpent, which was deleted per AFD in 2019. Steel1943 (talk) 20:07, 3 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

• Weak retarget Great Sea-Centipede to Sea centipede where this is at least briefly discussed, even if unsourced. Weak delete Cetacean Centipede, with second preference to retarget to Sea centipede. Certainly this is a better target for both of these redirects than the current one, but I have no objection to deleting. A7V2 (talk) 02:28, 10 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

• Wikipedia:POPCORN → Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents  (talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ] 

This was RfD'd in 2019 but without a clear reason for deletion (arguably should have been speedily kept). I think it's worth revisiting that discussion with a proper rationale given.

The mentality of treating AN/I as theater is a very unhealthy one, and this redirect encourages that. AN/I is a place where we block and ban users, address serious harassment and abuse, and, ideally, try to deescalate tensions between good-faith users in disagreements. None of those are "popcorn"-worthy, and that people see them as such is frankly quite troubling, and contributes to the incessant drumbeat of useless driveby comments by people who see one of our most serious noticeboards as a spectacle.

That's not to say there's no place for comedy at or about AN/I. That's why I'm not RfDing WP:HAPPYPLACE. But the purpose of this redirect is not just levity, but trivialization. That is not something we should encourage. See also Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion/Log/2016 May 30 § Wikipedia:You can see Hell from here for a case of a similar redirect (to RfA) being deleted as promoting an unhealthy mentality. -- 'zin^{[is short for Tamzin]} (she|they|xe) 20:57, 10 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

• Question: What about the redirects WP:Dramaboard, WP:CESSPIT, or WP:Great Dismal Swamp? I think all three of these also fall under redirects that "[treat] AN/I as theater". I'm not trying to WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS, just curious about your opinion. :3 F4U (they/it) 17:23, 12 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  @Freedom4U: The first is borderline, but at least doesn't imply taking pleasure in the drama. AN/I is a very dramatic place, but that doesn't mean we should take pleasure in that. So, like I said, borderline. The second and third seem like commentary on AN/I's failings, so I don't see an issue with them. -- Tamzin^{[cetacean needed]} (she|they|xe) 18:42, 14 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

• I really like Tamzin's rationale here, but a corollary to "if you build it, they will come" is "if you have a process page on Wikipedia, someone will make a useless and/or snarky WP: link to it". I'd be sure that deleting this one, for the best reasons in the world, will fail to have any effect... not least because we can be sure that it will be recreated very soon by someone else wanting to make a point or a joke or a pointy-joke. — Trey Maturin™ 18:55, 12 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  @Trey Maturin: I agree it's probably Whac-A-Mole with things like this, but that's true of many classes of bad redirect, so I don't see it as a reason not to try. Also, if someone did recreate this exact redirect (or a near-identical one like WP:popcorn), that would be eligible for G4 speedy deletion. -- Tamzin^{[cetacean needed]} (she|they|xe) 18:42, 14 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

• ReTarget to Wikipedia:Drama. Which, helpfully, also has a link to AN/I at the top. I think this is a good way to split the difference on this one. - jc37 20:55, 14 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  That works for me. We can add this shortcut to the hatnote, which already refers to "the place where [WP:DRAMA] formerly redirected". -- Tamzin^{[cetacean needed]} (she|they|xe) 23:11, 14 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

A quick google search brings up [4] as the current most-commented video (though I took it from wikitubia, so maybe not the most reliable source); that factoid is also mentioned at Amir Tataloo, though unsourced, but that's probably the best target if/when it's sourced.
