• A fleshed out Disambig would make sense, but I don't see a disambig as called for just between printf and scanf. Unix manuals and technical manuals are always referring to Printf Format Strings (which are used by many tools), when the word Format String is used, but it's exceptionally rare to find anything other than C manuals referring to scanf strings. The concept of a Format String is a much broader topic, and there are many other kinds of format strings that could be discussed besides the C stdio library - such as strftime strings, Awk, Python f-strings, .Net Format strings , etc. Scanf is a specialization of printf - these two redirect targets would be referring to the same subject matter and Printf and Scanf should link to each other (or a common topic) anyway, regarding the discussion of Format strings, because Scanf format strings are Printf format strings with some additions, removals, and a change of interpretation. The current Scanf article doesn't really address how Scanf formats are different and unique from Printf strings, For example the %[ or %* syntax for strings such as %80[^\n] are not laid out. That is not really an issue.. I would not expect either of the Printf and Scanf articles on Wikipedia to serve as a technical manual or programming tutorial for these functions. I would think it should suffice to have a discussion on what format strings are for Printf and Scanf in one place, and Link to the official BSD or GNU C library's documentation. I say Printf, because the printf article has the better discussion of Format specifiers, and Scanf's is limited, except where they link to the Printf article --Mysidia (talk) 03:35, 7 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

• @Mysidia: Well, since as you correctly said "format string" is a more general topic than C's printf/scanf and we currently don't cover it anywhere, we should delete per WP:REDYES, no? Then an article that covers all the contexts format strings can appear in should be written at format string. Nickps (talk) 14:33, 12 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete to free space for an article per user:Nickps.

• Thermodynamics of nanostructures → Thermal transport in nanostructures  (talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ] 

The redirect should be deleted. The name of the page was an error, it appears that an editor thought that Thermodynamics was short for Thermal dynamics which it is not. The page has been changed to the more appropriate title Thermal transport in nanostructures. The redirect is incorrect, as it is not on thermodynamics, so would take readers in the wrong direction. I cannot find an actual page on thermodynamics in nanostructures, so it should be removed for the moment. Ldm1954 (talk) 04:52, 18 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep for now as an ((R from move)), unless the phrase clashes with another topic. The article has used the former title for almost ten years and may become hard to find without the redirect. ― Synpath 21:43, 18 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  Please note that the old name is misleading -- that should matter most. The science clashes. Ldm1954 (talk) 22:32, 10 18 March 2024 (UTC)

  N.B., the redirect is comparable to having a redirect from "Star" "Satellite" to "Milky Way" -- misleading without rationale. Please check the article content. Ldm1954 (talk) 22:37, 18 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  I'm not sure how misleading the redirect really is. As far as I understand, the physics of thermal transport would be a subset of thermodynamics. If I'm hopelessly wrong there, then sure, it might be harmful enough to delete. Even then, I don't think that this is wholly unreasonable thing to be mistaken about (hence a useful redirect).

  Regardless, deleting the redirect would break several internal links, which are easy to fix, but one should do that ahead of deletion. External links might exist as well, but that's more difficult to assess. I'd say that the redirect should be left alone for a month or three to see if it becomes unused. If that is established then it may make sense to revisit deleting this, but it still seems WP:CHEAP to keep around. ― Synpath 00:33, 19 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  Sorry, but yup, you are very wrong. Thermal transport is exactly what it says, how heat via vibrations (phonons) or electrons is transmitted from one place to another, for instance compare copper to an insulator such as glass wool. The topic is relevant as it changes at the nanoscale.

  Thermodynamics is all about what phase you have and how it varies with composition, temperature, pressure, gas environment etc. For instance why you can melt ice by adding salt to it, the solution freezes at a much lower temperature. Thermodynamics at the nanoscale is important, but has nothing to do with heat transfer. Ldm1954 (talk) 07:59, 19 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete. Thermal transport is akin to ocean heating or magma flow. Thermodynamics is the (theoretical) study of ergodic systems with a large number of particles and the conservation of energy.

I was about to recommend retargeting to Brock (Pokémon), but it somehow doesn't mention the Boulder Badge by name. Which is exceedingly odd?

The Principality of Moldavia was never a "province" of the Ottoman Empire. It was never a part of the empire. It always remained a separate country with its own laws and administration under vassalage. These redirects are inaccurate and misleading. Also the "Bogdan/Bogdania/Boğdan" redirects are made up original research. Super Ψ Dro 12:27, 6 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I do not see why should we keep blatantly inaccurate redirects. Moldavia (known in Turkish as Boğdan) was never a formal part of the Ottoman Empire, much less something organized into a province. If anything some parts of Moldavia, fractions, were formally annexed and organized into distinct sanjaks ("provinces") that did not even border each other [6] [7], adding a layer of ambiguity to this issue. That sources with a wide general scope have chosen to use a common word to describe a detail that was clearly not given much attention do not change Moldavia's status in the past. Professional academic sources on the history of Romania will never refer to Moldavia as a "province". Super Ψ Dro 23:37, 6 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

If you are concerned about the inaccuracy, the redirects can be tagged with ((R from incorrect name)). As it stands, there are indeed sources which refer to this area as a "province" of the Ottoman Empire, so the redirects are plausible search terms. Presidentman talk · contribs (Talkback) 03:02, 7 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

This idea (I do not see why should we keep blatantly inaccurate redirects) seems to come up fairly often. The telephone game by which we teach editors how Wikipedia works is not good at this kind of subject. So, because a lot of editors don't know, let me say that the point of a redirect is not to be accurate information, but to take readers to accurate information. An incorrect name can make a perfectly fine redirect. WhatamIdoing (talk) 01:22, 10 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

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

The target article does not mention the word “Pronomian” nor explain what the word means. Bwrs (talk) 22:13, 15 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: This seems to be an R from antonym, given the "Anti-" in the target article is getting swapped for "Pro-", with the implication that the views of "Pronomians" are opposite that of "Antinomians". That said, I'd like to point out that R from Antonym as an rcat is one of those rcats that populates a maintenance category, so we can't just tag as Antonym and keep. (Which is odd to me? If we don't have an article on something, but we have an article on its direct opposite, and we can reasonably and competently explain the first thing as "the complete opposite of this second thing", then that seems to be a good place to have a redirect. Why is this rcat populating a maintenance category?) 𝔏𝔲𝔫𝔞𝔪𝔞𝔫𝔫🌙🌙🌙 𝔗𝔥𝔢 𝔐𝔬𝔬𝔬𝔬𝔬𝔫𝔦𝔢𝔰𝔱 (talk) 12:15, 16 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Do we really know for a fact that pronomianism is the opposite of antinomianism, or do we merely assume so based on the fact that “pro-” is the opposite of “anti-”? Now, if I really wanted to rid Wikipedia of these redirects I can tell you that they were made by somebody who is the subject of an WP:Office action. But the Wikipedia:Office never publishes the reasons for its actions, and I hope that discussing it here might raise the attention of subject matter experts who know what pronomianism actually is. Bwrs (talk) 23:04, 16 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I think maybe we should redirect to Christian views on the Old Covenant. Antinomianism is usually used to mean a particular deviation from the mainstream Christian view (though we do a bad job of defining it in the article), so I don’t think this is an antonym, just another niche view.— JFHutson (talk) 01:11, 17 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Although that might be the most appropriate redirection target, it does not define the term either. Nowhere does the string “pronomian” appear in either the current target or in the new proposed target. This is one of my pet peeves, when a word I do not know redirects to an article that does not define this word. Bwrs (talk) 16:23, 17 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I'd be fine with deletion as well, as I doubt the redirect could be helpful to anyone.-- JFHutson (talk) 13:56, 19 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

• Dark Mountain (logo) → Paramount Television  (talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ] 

While the logo might be a mountain, the words "dark" nor "mountain" do not appear anywhere at the target page. We don't have any encyclopedic about a dark mountain logo, which encyclopedic content about a logo seems to be specifically requested through this search term, by including "logo" in the title. With this being tagged as a "related meme without a mention", I'm not too convinced about its plausibility standalone. Utopes _{(talk / cont)} 21:48, 8 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

• Dark Deco → Art Deco#Late Art Deco  (talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ] 

I presume this might have once been [mentioned], but now this concept of Dark Deco is not mentioned at the target. It has minor mentions across Wikipedia in reference to properties such as Batman: The Animated Series (across this and 2 other related pages, Gotham City and Andrea Beaumont), and also at Skullgirls in a quote. As it looks like 75% of all mentions of "Dark Deco" are at Batman pages, perhaps sending this to Batman: The Animated Series is the primary topic? Searching "Dark Deco" externally, 50% of my results are all Batman, with the rest of the topics being neologism hodgepodge across blogs and such. Now that I look into this more, I'm close to believing that "Dark Deco" is a specific Batman-related topic, and one that we cover across multiple Batman pages and basically nowhere else, but I wanted to bring this here as the current target has been fairly longstanding.

A film that is not mentioned at the target article. I presume it's about the target, but with no mentions to Mill, the connection is unclear?

Not mentioned at target. Youtube suggests it's a parody version of the song, but it's not mentioned here, and doesn't look to be widely covered, and thus an implausible search term in my opinion. Joseph2302 (talk) 17:05, 23 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

• 52nd International Film Festival Rotterdam → 51st International Film Festival Rotterdam  (talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ] 

Misleading redirect, actually pointing to the 51st edition of the festival. Per WP:REDLINK a redlink would be more useful, as it would encourage editors to create the page, and not giving them the impression the page already exists. Cavarrone 16:55, 23 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

• Draft:Romanian concession in Sarandë → Romanian Institute in Albania  (talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ] 

Romanian Institute in Albania was originally created under this title. The author, blocked since 2019, appears to have misread the sources he used. Albania granted a Romanian historian property in Sarandë and he established an institute on it and granted half of the land to the Romanian state, but this does not mean a part of Sarandë stopped being a sovereign part of Albania to become part of Romania. The "concession" thing is original research. No sources talk about this using the word "concession" [8]. This is ultimately a hoax. Draft:Romanian concession in Sarandë should be deleted too.
