Reason: The thing that 1.1 refers to more often, in my opinion, is
1.1.1.1 (for example, Google search 1.1). I think disambiguation is appropriate here, but given the decent number of incoming links, I'd like to bring it up for discussion first.
Reason: This doesn't appear to be notable. It doesn't even show up on Metacritic or Rotton Tomatoes (as far as I can tell), and I can't find reviews on
blu-ray.com. Nor can I find any other significant coverage of the film in my
WP:BEFORE search.
Reason: The file is simply being used for decoration. It's no longer in
Government of New York City - and in
Mayor of New York City, it could be replaced with an image of any inauguration - it serves no unique educational purpose there.
Reason: Unused; and at this point probably won't be used. Also doesn't make sense to have a general edit notice like this - annoys people using VE especially and contributes to banner blindness.
Reason: Unused navigational template - and somewhat redundant to others that exist such as {{WarnerMedia Studios & Networks}} and {{HBONetwork Shows}}. Should either be used or deleted.
Reason: Unused - should either be made a wrapper template (which would automatically add the page to the Hentai task force) or deleted. As of now, this doesn't adequately tag pages. Given that it hasn't been used, I don't think converting it to a wrapper would be particularly beneficial over deletion.
Reason:
John C. Calhoun is the clear primary topic for "Calhoun" - pretty much every place here is named after him, and it's not like any of them have become that significant in their own right (for what it's worth,
Calhoun gets about ten views per day,
John C. Calhoun about 1000, and
Calhoun, Georgia, the most populous city actually named Calhoun here - only about 100). It's very likely anyone arriving here is looking for information on
John C. Calhoun.
Reason: This help page doesn't make a lot of sense about what it discusses, and what sense it does make tends to just duplicate pages elsewhere. I don't see how this page is beneficial.
Reason: No point to having the template given that all of the links are red and this event hasn't happened yet. Can be recreated once the articles exist.
Reason: Not widely used, most cleanup categories use {{Maintenance category}}, which this should probably be redirected to (and then duplicate transclusions fixed).
Reason: Not a working template - and even if it was, it should not exist independently from {{Infobox person}} (note the previous merge of {{Infobox adult biography}}at TfD).
Reason: Doesn't work; even if it did, not necessary to have a separate template from {{Infobox person}} (for example see
Ninja (gamer), where the normal infobox is sufficient).
Reason: No reason for this at basename - {{Latest stable software release/Spotify Greenroom}} is the proper location (which also exists, so this needs to be deleted, not moved). {{Spotify Greenroom}}, if it existed, should be a navigation template for the software, not its latest version.
Reason: Flag is non-free and should therefore not be used simply for decoration. Also this just doesn't make sense - "New Zealand Cricket Team" is not in any way a governmental jurisdiction.
Reason: I don't think this is a useful navigation template - this is an excessive listing of cities that hardly anyone will use to navigate between articles. Most if not all of the articles here would not benefit from having the template added.
Reason: This person also was a major-party candidate in the
2020 Fresno mayoral election - not sure if this should exist as a redirect, or if so, which is a better target.
Reason: Note: I redirected this as it originally transcluded the template with no arguments, so I figured it was an attempt at a redirect.I don't think this is a useful redirect, though. The name would imply an Infobox for books that are biographies of scientists, but that is an overly specific usecase that would never exist - and redirecting to {{Infobox book}} wouldn't make sense. Not used so no reason to keep.
Reason: Clear primary topic of "Notepad", referring to software, is
Microsoft Notepad. Propose retargeting.
Notepad+ and
Notepad++ are already, well, named differently.
Text editors are only referred to as "notepad" because of Microsoft Notepad, following that, Microsoft Notepad is clearly primary.
Reason: Given the
actual usage of this emoji, while the name is "pleading face", I don't think it makes sense to redirect to the legal concept. Not sure where the best target is, though.
Reason: Copied from
Yahoo!, no reason for a copy in draftspace. This also isn't a plausible redirect (bad disambiguation), so I think full deletion makes sense.
Reason: Not useful as a redirect. This provides no useful information sought based off of the title. Should be deleted to encourage article creation, or at very least to prevent misleading those who might follow a link to this.
Reason: Inaccurate name for the current target. This is currently used on our articles about people, not our articles about biographies. Propose replacing existing uses and deleting, as this would likely get some accidental use if targeting something like {{Infobox book}}.
Reason: Not mentioned at target. Probably not useful as a redirect anyway, given that someone searching this up would presumably know it was Bill Clinton who said it - and someone who didn't wouldn't be well-served as currently there is no context as to why this redirects there.
Reason: Not mentioned at target. Maybe a song lyric, but doesn't seem to be a particularly noteworthy one (searching the phrase leads to lots of unrelated things).
Reason: Adding these links to an article manually isn't a huge burden on editors, and makes article prose more maintainable than a template. Should be substituted and deleted (or if this is really needed as a shortcut, made subst-only).
Reason: No indication of notability. All references are to the school or larger school system's website.
WP:BEFORE search fails to turn up significant coverage of the school itself.
Reason: Other than the offline source (which does not have a page number listed for verifiability, nor can it be easily accessed), the citypopulation.de source doesn't list the village at all, and
https://townsvillages.com/ng/okobo/ only lists the village's name with no other information. This is not sufficient to pass
WP:GEOLAND.
Reason: Suboptimal and redundant to two other templates, due to ambiguous usage. Looking through transclusions I've found two types of uses. The first, like at
Salton Sea, would be clearer using {{PD-notice}}. The second, like at
Order of the Red Banner, is redundant to {{Source-attribution}}. The wording of this template isn't clearer in either context than that of the templates it's redundant to.I propose that transclusions of {{Citation-attribution}} be manually replaced with either {{PD-notice}} or {{Source attribution}} depending on their location in the article, then the template either redirected to {{PD-notice}} or deleted. As there are only around ~450 transclusions, I'd be willing to take on this task, but I'd like to get consensus to do so first.
Reason: Pointless sandbox for a page that doesn't need any significant edits. Was created by a user who is now topic-banned from project-space and has never been touched by anyone else.
Reason: Not sure if this is really necessary to take to TfD, but better safe than sorry. Page was created blank but seemingly meant as a redirect to {{Template:Infobox military installation}}, but it doesn't make sense there as it's from a foreign language not particularly associated with the concept of a military installation (so fails
WP:RFOREIGN). Would've taken to RfD if this was actually a redirect, but feels wrong to edit a page only to be able nominate it for deletion via a different venue.
Reason: Useless navbox. There are only two links to articles here -
Hurricane Ida and
Hurricane Ida tornado outbreak and only two other relevant links -
Category:Hurricane Ida (which isn't really useful as it simply contains the two articles already linked, plus this navbox) and
c:Category:Hurricane Ida (2021). This isn't sufficient for the navigational template to be useful to readers.
Reason: Story arc of a comic book series, no clear real-world notability. The article's "references" are all to comic books - no secondary sourcing. My attempts to find sourcing for this only found sourcing for the similarly-named
Legion of Super-Heroes.
Reason: Re-created after October 2020 PROD - per that PROD (not by me): "Road crossing, not community. Notability not established with substantive sources: Results in newspapers.com are about a road crossing landmark, not community".My own
WP:BEFORE search echos this, I can't find any info on a populated place named "Russell Crossing" in Maine - I can find some database listings, but without a population. Looking at this on Google maps (with satellite view) doesn't show a community either - just looks like a road crossing. Unless actual coverage can be found, I don't think this passes
WP:GEOLAND.
Reason: Implausible typo created by a page move - but as the article was only at this title for about a week, I don't think deletion would be too harmful here.
Reason: Per
WP:COSTLY, no need for a redirect from an uppercase disambiguation qualifier. No article ever existed at this title, so no risk of breaking incoming links.
Reason: Procedural nomination per
discussion at RfD: "The article [stands] almost entirely as an advertisement for unnotable businesses there, and none of the references define the subject - the 'district' doesn't actually exist as far as I can tell from references and other reading." (per
Ɱ). I'm neutral on whether the article should be deleted, but it seems clear a discussion should be held.
Reason: Not useful. There's no reason to redirect to a jawiki policy, and if we were to retarget this internally it would be to
Wikipedia:Protection policy - but we generally don't have redirects in project-space from other languages per
WP:RFOREIGN.
Reason: De-prodded by
Clarityfiend with the reasoning "more than enough official government sources for
WP:GEOLAND". However, all the sources are simply database entries that do not even list the place's population. While there is a general presumption of notability in GEOLAND - that presumption can be rebutted. This village and others like it is not notable - we don't have population statistics or any information about the village other than the local government area it is located in (also, see
Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Itak Ekim, a previous AfD I filed for a similar village, leading to its deletion, as these are not notable places).
Reason: This is a political protest slogan that isn't notable. Some people said "Fuck Joe Biden" at college football games and that's been of course covered by conservative press, there's no long-term significance here or in-depth coverage of the phrase itself.
Reason: Non-notable browser feature. Has a few short mentions in reliable sources but that doesn't make it notable for its own article - this isn't a revolutionary feature or anything.
Reason: This should target
Catgirl or be disambiguated. I think targeting
Boyd Terry is somewhat
WP:ASTONISHing to readers who are likely searching for information on the male version of catgirls.
Reason: Not a good redirect - was used once in a sentence by a reviewer but I doubt most people who search "helicopter dick" are looking for
3-Way (The Golden Rule).
Reason: Not mentioned at target article. AfD seemed to have somewhat of a consensus to merge but as it stands a few weeks later the target article does not contain a mention of Scheller, making this a confusing and unexplained redirect.
Reason: Non-notable. Background info: this was split from
Ventoura which was
deleted at AfD (from what I can tell some sort of
Frankenstein article?), but I can't find enough significant coverage for this to be considered notable.
Reason: Per the
previous deletion discussion, but re-nominating since this contains new sources compared to the article six years ago, making
WP:G4 iffy at best. The sources currently in an article are an interview and a biography published by a university, neither of which satisfy "significant coverage in reliable, independent sources".
Reason:
WP:NATURALDISAMBIGUATION, this isn't a separate topic that happens to have the same name as
Zero tolerance, it's a subset of "Zero tolerance" applying particularly to schools. Would be fine with a different natural disambiguation as long as we drop the parenthetical.
Reason: I don't think there's any good possible redirect target for Laura Brehm, so this redirect should be deleted. She's worked on multiple songs/albums. No redirect target we have provides much useful information about her that a reader would be looking for, and the current target is somewhat
WP:ASTONISHing.
Reason: This appears unused, and I'm struggling to find a context in which it is useful. Excluding transclusions as part of a "list of all inline icon/discussion templates", as far as I can tell this isn't used anywhere in any discussions, and an insource: search of Wikipedia namespace also showed a lack of substitution.
Reason:
Queen's Counsel is not a clear primary topic for the term "QC" over
Quality control,
Quebec,
Questionable Content, and other topics listed on the disambiguation page. A Google search query shows, on my end, Questionable Content first, then Queen's Counsel, Queens College, and Quality control.
Reason: WikiProject is not really "inactive", it does not exist and does not have any consensus for existing (see discussion on
Wikipedia:WikiProject Council/Proposals/WikiProject 2020s). Therefore this tag on talkpages doesn't really help anyone.
Reason: salt evasion page
Dronebogus (
talk) 02:03, 10 November 2021 (UTC) this is a procedural nomination because the title this MfD is at is on the title blocklist
Reason: Non-notable county councillor;
previous discussion has determined King County Council members are not presumed notable. No good redirect targets so I support deletion.Also bundling a few similar articles together in this nomination for the same reason.
Reason: Topic is not nearly broad enough for a portal, while
WP:P2 doesn't apply, everything is better explained and presented in the article
Critique of political economy.
Reason:
Whirlpool is not a clear
WP:PRIMARYREDIRECT for
Maelstrom. That redirect, in the past 30 days, got 1456 views. This disambiguation page, despite being in a hatnote at the redirect target, got 628. Many entries at this page also got significantly more views, such as
Maelstrom (ride) with 1698 and
Maelstrom (comics) with 6122.
Reason: No point to keeping around this talkpage of a long-deleted article. It isn't general practice to keep around article talkpages when articles are deleted, even via PROD, and I don't see a convincing case to do something different here.
Reason: Unreferenced and non-notable road. Per
WP:GEOROADTopic notability for county roads, regional roads (such as Ireland's regional roads), local roads, streets and motorway service areas may vary, and are presumed to be notable if they have been the subject of multiple published secondary sources which contain significant coverage and are reliable and independent of the subject. While it does appear that this is somewhat of an important road in the area, I can't find sufficient sourcing for it to be considered notable, but as I do not have intimate knowledge of Pakistani sources, I'd like to take this to a broader discussion.
Reason: Is an all-caps redirect like this really necessary? We don't have all-caps redirects from most domain names and I'm unaware of an all-caps styling being common for this one.
Reason: Unnecessary user category, we generally don't allow these and certainly not at such a general title. Borderline G2 but not sure how that applies to in-use categories.
Reason: Subject to a ton of pointless edits and I don't think this could ever be useful (the dispute over what the clip says is the whole reason why it's relevant).
Reason: Unclear association with current target (previously targeted the now-redirect
Wikipedia:No offensive usernames), excluding shortcut lists this has been used exactly once to refer to this page in 2003. I think it's safe to say no one is using this anymore.
Reason: Completely pointless redirect (nonsensical redundancy, no one would ever type this) created by someone who was banned at the time (and still is).
Reason: No clear primary topic with
Robert W. Malone, who is often just called Robert Malone, so should be disambiguated at basename. If anything,
Robert W. Malone is the primary topic.
Reason: Insufficient
significant coverage in
reliable, independent sources. None of the sources cited in the article appear to constitute sufficient coverage for notability and I cannot find such sources after doing a search either.
Cary Huang might be notable, though I'm not sure, but I doubt that this series is.
Reason: A
previous discussion (
permalink) established that
Robert Malone (American football) is not the primary topic for
Robert Malone, but didn't establish any consensus to whether the virologist is the primary topic. Given how many pageviews this gets vs the football player, I think it's quite clear that he's the virologist is the primary topic, and disambiguation would be best done with a hatnote on his page (and therefore the disambiguation page currently at
Robert Malone would be deleted for the move to be carried out).Also noting that Robert W. Malone is frequently referred to his name as just "Robert Malone", far more often than as "Robert W. Malone", so if it's determined that he isn't the primary topic here, I think the title should still be moved away from using his middle initial as the disambiguator and to something else (such as
Robert Malone (virologist)).
Reason: Not mentioned at target. This term has generally been used as a more inclusive alternative to "mother", and given its current usage, someone who searches it is likely curious about that initiative and not simply looking for information on mothers. Not sure if we currently have any information on this topic though (there is some media coverage e.g.
this).
Reason: Unnecessary per
WP:NODISCLAIMERS (which doesn't explicitly apply to talkpages, but a common sense interpretation says we don't need content disclaimers on talkpages any more than in articles). This doesn't help collaboration and contributes to banner blindness.
Reason: Unnecessary for multiple reasons. If someone wants to add an infobox to an article whose topic almost certainly merits one, adding a basic infobox is quite easy. There is also no guideline that states most articles should have infoboxes, and the creator of this template seems to not understand that (this artctle needs a infobox like every other artcile about living personss,
explaining their use
here).
Reason: We don't usually keep redirects with miscapitalized disambiguation. There's no reason this is any different. Page history isn't useful or necessary for attribution.
Reason: Unnecessary cross-language template redirect, we generally don't keep redirects in other languages in template-space.(noting for transparency that this was created as a direct transclusion of {{retired}}, I've updated this to be a redirect as it functionally was before and discussing at RfD therefore makes more sense than TfD)
Reason: Insufficient sourcing both here and
at cswiki. Did a BEFORE search that didn't turn up anything useful, though I don't speak Czech so I'm not comfortable PRODing it.
Reason: Unnecessary "humor" template. We don't need to have more ways for users to repetitively slap each other, and the existence of templates like this encourages such behavior. This hasn't gotten a significant amount of usage either (thankfully), so it's not like it will be missed.
Reason: Unnecessary "humor" template that doesn't fulfill a need or improve collaboration. We don't need more ways for users to slap each other (or stomp on each other, I guess).
Reason: Not the sort of thing that should be a template; this is transcluded in one place and should be substituted there and deleted (and honestly should be put in a better reference format than a bare URL).
Reason: This article has an unclear scope (the title states "March 2022" yet the body discusses events in February 2022 and April 2022), and there isn't enough content here to require a split from
COVID-19 pandemic in Shanghai. It seems like this might be about a lockdown, but the sources don't seem clear about making this a separate topic from the overall pandemic in the area, which would make the existence of this page not in line with hot it's covered (effectively
WP:SYNTH).
Reason: Created as an apparent typo from a pagemove; page was moved away from this title within a minute of being moved here. Not a plausible/useful redirect.
Reason: This essay is out-of-line with what the general consensus is of this term meaning (see
this discussion (
permalink)), so this essay should either be deleted or moved (so an essay explaining the current background and consensus in a neutral manner could be written here), or rewritten to the same effect.
Reason: No need to have a shortcut redirect from a misspelling. This isn't linked anywhere currently -- and shouldn't be. It existing will allow people to link to it, therefore propagating the misspelling, so there is a cost to not deleting this.
Reason: Redirect target was changed without discussion from
Suicide to the disambiguation page
Kill Yourself in July 2021 (
diff). Previously, this redirect had targeted the Suicide article since 2006, when it was created. This is a procedural nomination because I think this warrants discussion; I have no strong opinion on where this should target.
Reason: Promotional article about a non-notable person. While there are many, sources in the article, none of them are in-depth, reliable, independent coverage of the subject (most cover the company he manages, but of those, most appear to be unreliable).
Reason: No evidence of notability; neither of the cited sources directly relate to or mention the subject and
WP:BEFORE didn't turn up sufficient sourcing either.
Reason: Not a plausible redirect given the use of a curly quote; no user would actually type this so it's not useful as a potential search term. The previous RfD did not consider the use of a curly quote.
Reason: We don't have enough details to be sure that this was an attempted assassination of Nancy; most coverage focuses on what actually happens, which was an assault on Paul Pelosi.
Reason: Only notable for being a failed candidate in the
2022 United States Senate election in Colorado; there is no significant coverage of him outside of the context of that election.
Reason: While there are many people named Ron Johnson listed on the disambiguation page, the Wisconsin politician is a clear primary topic.
90% of clicks from the disambiguation go to his article and he easily gets
more pageviews than all other people with the name.There also isn't a strong argument for anyone else preventing him from being the primary topic due to long-term significance. The Wisconsin politician is a three-term member of the U.S. Senate; no one else listed on the disambiguation page has done anything nearly as prominent.
Reason: Almost all coverage is in the context of their failed run for Illinois lieutenant governor; not notable outside of that so should be redirected to
2022 Illinois gubernatorial election with any relevant details merged.
Reason: This is not a useful disambiguation page, nor is there a useful article for this to redirect to.Some states (such as New Hampshire) have notable presidential primaries referred to as "STATE primary", while some others (such as California and Louisiana) have unique primary systems for state elections referred to as "STATE primary". Neither of those apply here. While Texas has held plenty of presidential primaries, people don't really talk about "the Texas primary" as its own thing. Texas also uses a normal system for statewide primaries that is not unique, so we don't have much coverage of that on Wikipedia either. Therefore, there's no real primary topic for this term, and no useful articles to disambiguate between, so this page should be deleted.
Reason: This RM requires a bit of background. This page has long been titled "Victoria (Australia)" and has gone through eight RMs, most recently with an attempt to rename to "Victoria, Australia"
in 2021. That RM was closed without consensus, but with the note that there might be "Victoria (state)" might be able to gain consensus as a title."Victoria (state)" is a better title title for this article compared to the current "Victoria (Australia)". This lines up with how we treat other states of other countries, such as states in the US (e.g.
Washington (state)). There are no other states with the name Victoria, so the proposed title is both unambiguous and clearer to readers as to the topic of the article.
Reason: No one else listed at the disambiguation page
Brandon Johnson is anywhere near the pageviews or long-term notability as the (soon to be) mayor of the U.S.'s second-largest city.
Reason: More concise and consistent with
Federal prosecution of Donald Trump. Using two different naming formats for these articles doesn't make sense. Would also support a move to People v. Trump, but it appears that would not get consensus here.
Reason: This isn't entirely in Harris County, Texas. It serves as the border between Harris and Montgomery, so Montgomery has similar claim to the creek. The start of the creek is also in Waller County. Not sure what to title this, though, as there is another Spring Creek in Texas.
Reason: Non-notable shooting: while there was a large amount of coverage at the time, there is basically nothing to meet
WP:SUSTAINED. No lasting
WP:EFFECT; unfortunately, shootings of this nature are not particularly rare or notable in the United States.
Reason: Non-notable shooting; got a burst of coverage at the time but the only sources since are routine coverage of the court proceedings that do not meet
WP:SUSTAINED. No lasting
WP:EFFECTs.
Reason: I doubt the family is really the primary topic for this surname, given the
numerous other people who share it. Would prefer a disambiguation page.
Reason: This is a non-notable local election in a municipality with under 100k people. Since the previous AfD in 2006, our notability standards around this sort of topic have gotten much stricter.
Reason: This is a
WP:BLP1E and should be redirected to
2022 Illinois gubernatorial election; a previous BLAR by
Onel5969 was reverted. No apparent notability and coverage outside of her unsuccessful candidacy in the Democratic primary.
Reason: This article duplicates the content and scope of
2023 Israel–Hamas war. The vast majority of the content here relates solely to that attack, and American military bases getting attacked does not qualify as a "war". Sources do not generally treat these as one broader concept, either, so this arguably violates
WP:SYNTH by implying a relationship not supported by sources.
Reason: This article only covers the air base attack and the United States's response to it, so naming it in a much broader way is unhelpful to our readers. If this does escalate into a broader conflict, then we should have articles on both the air base attack and the broader conflict (but as this has not happened yet, we should move this article in the meantime).
Reason: Commonly referred to as only "John Burzichelli" and the J. is not serving as disambiguation. Recent sources supporting this:
[1][2] and a campaign site as well:
[3].
Reason: Unlikely to ever get a definitive "end" to these purges; renaming at least clarifies the scope. Would also be fine with something like "Purges in Turkey of the Gülen movement".
Reason: Sources here don't establish notability. Most sources present aren't reliable or independent, and those that are do not provide significant coverage:*
LA Times only features one of her photos, no coverage on her*
The Mercury News is just an interview and more about a website she launched than her*
The Citizen is just a passing mention*
The Guardian is also just a passing mention
Reason: Non-notable crime. After the immediate burst of coverage following the event, there has not been
WP:SUSTAINED coverage sufficient for notability (only a few local sources, mostly about the trial; this is typical for most crimes and does not indicate notability).
Reason: This isn't a separate blockade from the general
Blockade of the Gaza Strip, nor is it limited to 2023. This article covers the blockade during the war (and particularly, its escalation); the title should reflect that.
Reason: Can't find any evidence of this nickname actually being used for Baldwin in this way; he is called "Smart Alec" in some places (
[4][5]) but not to the extent that this redirect would be useful (no one is searching or entering this exact term).
Reason: Not sure this is a plausible typo (or what people would expect when searching this term, so it's worse than having nothing). Previously was discussed (and deleted) at RfD and no one suggested this target.
Reason: This isn't commonly referred to as "Boston incident"; searching the term finds little about the massacre compared to other incidents (such as the
2007 Boston Mooninite panic). In the cases where the massacre is referred to with this term, it's only in a descriptive fashion and not as an actual name. Redirect was created by a quickly-reverted
WP:POINTy page move in 2006.
