• Delete - While it was announced that Camilla would be princess consort seventeen years ago, that obviously is not the case now. This is an implausible (incorrect) and unlikely search term. Estar8806 (talk) 18:14, 7 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
• Retarget to Princess consort#United Kingdom ‑‑Neveselbert (talk · contribs · email) 18:34, 7 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  Agreed. Since it was never used, it is, in my view, more appropriate to link it to information about the title rather than the intended holder. It's also most likely that someone using the term would be searching for information about the "Princess consort" title as anyone familiar with the topic would search her well-known styles: "Queen Camilla", "Camilla Queen Consort" or her birth/married names. Jèrriais janne (talk) 00:18, 8 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  I second this retargeting. Makes sense to direct to where there is specific discussion of this title/styling, rather to someone who never actually used it. SecretName101 (talk) 03:13, 8 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep as the nominator mentioned, this is the suggested title to be used. It would be ahistoric to think that it never was that term to be used. Thus it is a valid search term and a valid piece of history. Wikipedia is not just a newspaper, it also documents the past. The current form of address does not erase history. -- 64.229.90.172 (talk) 07:47, 11 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  By deleting the redirect we are not erasing history, we are merely erasing future that could have been. We don't have Queen Diana as a redirect either, although she could have been Queen had they not divorced. IlkkaP (talk) 17:06, 15 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  No, by deleting it is a way to remove the history of the term, which was put forward by Camilla and others at the time she married, and carried forward in the popular press and popular culture. It is therefore a valid search term and represents an official position of her proposed title at a period of time. It is a significant point in the history of this person, that she was regarded as to not be the next queen, but to hold the title of princess instead. We have similar redirects from proposed film titles for films that have articles. This person the wife of a king, as a consort was to have held this title, and now holds a different one, so would be a similar situation. Unlike Diana, who died before ever reaching queen. This person, Camilla, did not die before achieving the position of consort to the king, so is different from the Diana position, who never became consort to the king. -- 64.229.90.172 (talk) 01:21, 16 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

• Definitely don't delete. It's a plausible search term and we have directly relevant information. I'm ambivalent as to whether Queen Camilla#Titles, styles, honours and arms or Princess consort#United Kingdom is a better target. —Mx. Granger (talk · contribs) 17:41, 12 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete: The fact that this redirect has barely been used, with 45 views in the 12 months prior to this nomination, makes it an unlikely search term. --Super Goku V (talk) 03:18, 20 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • I'm not sure how that's an argument for deletion? Sure, it only helps that many people, but that still significantly outweighs the amount of harm the redirect causes. J947 † ^edits 04:39, 20 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

    My understanding was that if a redirect is barely in use, then it is okay to delete it. However, if you are saying that 45 views in the 12 months prior to nomination is enough to keep, then I will apologize for my mistake. --Super Goku V (talk) 00:24, 21 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

This is another example of Fram nominating things for deletion due to Fram's deficit of WP:COMPETENCE. Much of the present information in our article is on USA populations.

    • @J947: I don't know how to answer this very big question. What makes this a very appropriate redirect is the large volume of WP:RS on this very subject.

      • Concisely: generally, what makes a good redirect is one that is a plausible search term. It is unlikely that many people at all will search up Two separate Asian giant hornet introductions in North America, and in the extremely rare case they do they can access it easily from the search page anyway. Volunteer time is better spent on creating more plausible search terms – i.e., shorter ones, and those more likely to be made.

These terms are each used in several legal systems, not just the U.S. federal system. As Felony#Classification by seriousness shows, alphabetical categories are also used for felonies in several U.S. states (e.g. New Hampshire, Massachusetts, Tennessee...). That section isn't a suitable target either, though, as it has the opposite problem, describing states' classification systems but not the federal system. I don't think there's scope for a disambiguation page as our coverage of how these things work at the state level is minimal or nonexistent. – Arms & Hearts (talk) 14:05, 13 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

• Retarget to Felony#Classification by seriousness I disagree that this would be an unsuitable target. Information on federal classifications can always be added or a hatnote could be used. - Presidentman talk · contribs (Talkback) 17:27, 13 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

• Wikipedia:INCOMPETENT → WP:COMPETENCE  (talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ] 

This shortcut can be used as a personal attack - even unintentionally. See also wikt:incompetent. This should be deleted. - jc37 09:39, 13 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

• Deprecate and retain. I agree that this should not be linked in the shortcut box WP:CIR. Even if it is removed there, the shortcut itself has been used in a large number of discussions and therefore should likely be retained for historical reference as a soft redirect along the lines of WP:DIVA. Dekimasuよ! 13:57, 13 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep Speaking of incompetence, the logs show that Jc37 moved the page without consensus and only afterward discussed the move on the talk page; the comments on the talk page universally opposed the move. It seems there are a few editors with hurt feelings and perhaps they've self-selected to leave this project. Chris Troutman (talk) 02:18, 14 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
• Deprecate per Dekimasu. The essay is certainly necessary, but we mustn't be plain mean about it by using this particular shortcut. J947 † ^edits 04:17, 14 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
• Deprecate and retain per Dekimasu: I agree that this could be used as a personal attack but we need to keep it because of its use in historical discussions. InterstellarGamer12321 (talk | contribs) 06:48, 14 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
• Deprecate (aka convert to soft redirect) per Dekimasu: The consensus here is pretty clear, but nevertheless I wanted to chime in. Linking to this shortcut is possibly the worst way of responding to an editor with competence issues, and is ironic given that the essay explicitly advises against labelling people as incompetent. It isn't going to magically make the editor improve their skills.

I checked all uses of that shortcut, and I can conclude that:

• In 17 instances (31%), it was a clear personal attack [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17];
• In 27 instances (49%), the comments weren't as clear cut, but were still unhelpful or ill-considered. Some were made in response to baiting [18][19][20][21][22][23][24][25][26][27][28][29][30][31][32][33][34][35][36][37][38][39][40][41][42][43][44];
• In only 11 instances (20%), it was wholly unproblematic. Most comments were self-deprecation, and only one was actually criticizing the shortcut. [45][46][47][48][49][50][51][52][53][54][55]

So it's an obvious net negative. Don't get me wrong, of course I think that competence is needed to edit, and I actually agree with most of the essay. Well-meaning but disruptive editors can be a serious problem, but this shortcut is not the solution. Deprecation (like what was done to WP:DIVA) sends a strong message to people wanting to misuse it. Dsuke1998AEOS (talk) 00:13, 15 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

To add to my previous comment: I wouldn't oppose deletion, but it is not IMO better than deprecation, since it may lead to editors making pointy comments like "WP:INCOMPETENT should be a blue link".

Keeping this shortcut as deprecated has a higher chance of resulting in the editors who misuse it being rebuked for personal attacks. Dsuke1998AEOS (talk) 01:32, 19 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete: If 80% of the uses of it are potentially negative, it seems that the benefit by keeping it for reading old discussions where it's linked to is negated by the potential continued usage of it. As noted above that WP:CIRNOT says not to call people incompetent, which is what this redirect is doing. It also seems that generally within the context of the use of the redirect in discussions that the meaning of it would not be completely foreign to someone browsing through those, but that's a judgment call on my part and I can see why others disagree and would prefer deprecation. TartarTorte 19:02, 15 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
• Question. What does deprecate mean in this context? Are people saying blank it, keep and tag the redirect as don't use, or.. what exactly? –MJL ‐Talk‐^☖ 00:11, 16 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  @MJL: I believe the proposal is to do the same as at WP:DIVA. -- Tamzin^{[cetacean needed]} (she|they|xe) 17:30, 17 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  Mhmm. J947 † ^edits 06:27, 18 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete because I'm not sure what the merit is in deprecating it. To me, "deprecate", whether it applies to usage or a feature, means "deletion is planned, so no one should use it in new work, but we're providing a window during which it will still function to give enouogh time to replace it where it's already used". In deletion discussions, this result is usually characterized as something like "replace everywhere and delete", something that will be taken care of within a few days by a bot. There's no reason to place it in a deprecated state. Largoplazo (talk) 20:19, 17 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • That's not what is proposed. Set aside the terminology, which in this instance is perhaps closer to colloquial than technical use. J947 † ^edits 06:27, 18 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

• Zsuzsanna Budapest immigrates to the United States of America → Zsuzsanna Budapest  (talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ] 

Random sentence which makes for a very unlikely search term (and in present tense, no idea why). Creator has a penchant for such rather lengthy and unlikely redirect creations (e.g. Epidemiology of Familial Mediterranean fever in the United States of America which links to a section which doesn't mention the US, and where e.g. the first source is about the EU and the other three are general; or Survey sociolinguistics at the University of Delhi, or Perform survey at Taim Ecological Station).

Another admin deleted Film director responsibility for rehearsal in USA industry and Madeleine Albright surprised by her parents' Jewish ancestry.

Search hasn't Wikipedia:Article name search worked so restrictively in years, search engines use these and AI search makes extensive use of them. However there are objections to sentence redirects so I understand I can't prevail. I merely think it's a strange opinion. I hope this can be discussed in whatever (WP:REDIRECT perhaps) place would be appropriate.

I haven't heard of Neelix. I agree with Neelix that puerile does not justify deletion and that we need a wider ontology than some prefer. However Neelix's redirects were almost entirely truly nonexistent things. Mine are – no exception – all

They are mostly not ((R with possibilities)) but these all pass WP:V. — Invasive Spices (talk) 21:39, 15 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

• Fram has opened wide criticism of me personally and several unrelated articles so this discussion is solely about this one redirect of course isn't true. Because Fram has opened this: Epidemiology of Familial Mediterranean fever in the United States of America is another case of an ongoing problem with Fram. In a prior Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion/Log/2023 February 22#Epidemiology of IKBKAP in the United States Fram did the same thing. Because I explained what epidemiology is and pointed to WP:CIR Fram has even fewer excuses for doing this again. A competent reading of sources shows most studies are from a different country but some studies were drawn from the USA. (Epidemiology of IKBKAP in the United States was mostly USA subjects.) That is sufficient to justify Epidemiology of Familial Mediterranean fever in the United States of America. — Invasive Spices (talk) 21:21, 15 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not sure if this is a plausible misspelling in the disambiguator, especially since the correctly spelled counterpart (which I created almost a week earlier) now exists.
