Flushing-Main Street (New York Subway)
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 WP:SNOW keep. I'm willing to revert this upon request given how early this close is, but it seems a solid case of SNOW: there's no chance of this being deleted, so there's no need to run it through the whole process. --

Keep very plausible search term for someone who doesn't know what line the station is on, as evidenced by at least 15 hits each month for the past several months. Additionally there is a very high likelihood of incomming external links as the content has been accessible via this title since 2004 (and was the initial location of the content until it became a redirect in 2005).

Keep. Our readers don't know what articles are "supposed to go by". They only know enough to look on Wikipedia. This redirect does what exactly what redirects are supposed to do: help people look for things on Wikipedia.

The result of the discussion was speedy delete. Redirects created when fixing page moves to the wrong namespace are covered under criterion
G6 ("pages created in the wrong namespace").

Request deletion of this cross namespace redirect which I accidentally created in a botched (and now otherwise fully fixed) move from user space to main space - sorry!

Misleading redirects. Trigger tha Gambler is the brother of Smoothe da Hustler, but a redirect somewhat suggests that they are the same person (until you read the later paragraph). He probably doesn't meet the notability requirement for an own article, so the redirects should just go.

Comment. It is common practice where it makes sense. Usually the target article would have a Personal Life section that the redirect points to. In this case, the brother is only mentioned passingly. The redirect is also confusing because it looks like "Trigger tha Gambler" would be an older performance name of "Smoothe da Hustler", until that passing mention. The redirect does more harm than good.

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.
Weak keep unless someone creates an article for Trigger tha Gambler or for "Broken Language", since both might be notable and the latter would be a better target than the current one. I agree with the nominator that the present situation is misleading, but it might be easily fixed by creating a "personal life" section and retargetting to that. –

Keep and tag per Ego White Tray.
WP:R#DELETE #10 might apply since the redirect could plausibly be expanded into an article, but the target seems to contain more than the "virtually no information" required by that criterion. –
