Human consumption

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 disambiguate. JohnCD ( talk) 17:28, 16 February 2012 (UTC) reply

Delete. The most common use of the phrase "human consumption" is to refer to things consumed by humans; but anthropophagy refers to the consumption of humans. This redirect is very unlikely to reflect the actual intent of any article linking to it. R'n'B ( call me Russ) 21:37, 8 February 2012 (UTC) reply

Gluten intolerance

The result of the discussion was Retarget to Gluten sensitivity. Lenticel ( talk) 00:49, 10 February 2012 (UTC) reply

I am rather unhappy that typing in gluten intolerance, one gets redirected to coeliac disease. As mentioned on the Radio Four programme "Inside Health", presented by Mark Porter, the term "gluten intolerance" is a synonym for gluten sensitivity; the programme was careful to explain that this is NOT coeliac disease. — Preceding unsigned comment added by ACEOREVIVED ( talkcontribs) 15:57, 8 February 2012 (UTC) reply

Thank you for every one's help on this one. It seems we now have settled (and corrected) this one. Many thanks again every one, ACEOREVIVED ( talk) 09:23, 9 February 2012 (UTC) reply

List of awesome dinosaurs

The result of the discussion was no consensus to delete. JohnCD ( talk) 17:10, 16 February 2012 (UTC) reply

This redirect was created on the idea that " dinosaurs are inherently awesome", which I won't dispute (except to say that paleontologists have ruined Jurassic Park's velociraptors for me), but that's not really the function of redirects (although it's good for a laugh). The redirect itself is neither a likely search term, having registered an average of c. 12 hits per month in the 24 months since its creation, nor an accurate one as 'awesomeness' is, sadly, not a criterion used at the target article. -- Black Falcon ( talk) 06:48, 8 February 2012 (UTC) reply

Philly.com

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 retarget to Philadelphia Media Network. JohnCD ( talk) 17:12, 16 February 2012 (UTC) reply

Not sure about this. Philly.com isn't just the website of the Enquirer but also of its sister paper the Philadelphia Daily News. This might be best retargeted to Philadelphia Media Network, the entity which publishes all both papers and the website. –  hysteria18 ( talk) 03:10, 8 February 2012 (UTC) reply

  • Speedy close as retarget per nomination: no admin action required, DIY. — Dmitrij D. Czarkoff ( talk) 21:08, 8 February 2012 (UTC) reply
    • I think this is a slight misunderstanding of the role of RFD. This is redirects for discussion, not for deletion, and I think a discussion here would be useful. If I thought retargeting was indisputably the best course of action, rest assured I would have done so myself. –  hysteria18 ( talk) 02:19, 9 February 2012 (UTC) reply
      • I see no sense in this course of action: the proposed target is clearly better then the current one, and, provided that you would leave a reasonable edit summary, the subsequent refining of target can be done easier by less heavy-weight procedure then RfD. — Dmitrij D. Czarkoff ( talk) 02:27, 9 February 2012 (UTC) reply
        • As I said above, if I thought the proposed target was clearly better than the current one I would have retargeted it myself. But I wasn't sure, so I created an RFD instead. Obviously you're free to !vote to retarget, and I'm inclined to agree, and the RFD will likely be closed to that effect in due time. But discussion is valuable, and a speedy close would be unwise. –  hysteria18 ( talk) 12:59, 9 February 2012 (UTC) reply

The result of the discussion was Delete all. Ruslik_ Zero 18:36, 15 February 2012 (UTC) reply

Bringing to RfD as a contested speedy. Redirect contains no inbound file links, highly ambiguous search term which has little relevance to the image it redirects to. - FASTILY (TALK) 00:58, 8 February 2012 (UTC) reply
