Skin does not equal coat. Skin is below the coat. Compared to other kinds of leather or sheepskin in one place. Oh and some people eat it. Dogskin Lake is a feature in Canada. Legacypac ( talk) 21:59, 13 November 2015 (UTC) reply

None of these terms are unique to dogs, and none of them even make me think of dogs - s WP:SURPRISE. Paint and similar coatings jump to mind first. They also apply to numerous other animals like llamas whih have a double coat. Delete? Legacypac ( talk) 21:54, 13 November 2015 (UTC) reply

I can't see any evidence people are misspelling this guy's name or using rearrangements of it for some strange reason. The dutch version noted in the article is not nominated for deletion. Delete as clutter Legacypac ( talk) 21:27, 13 November 2015 (UTC) reply

No English results come up in search, but this is part of the name of a German company in the business of making drywall. If someone is seeking out the company name they are not looking to learn generally about drywall. Legacypac ( talk) 21:16, 13 November 2015 (UTC) reply

That is what I found too before I nom'd. I had to force it to only look at English results which is where I found the German company. Legacypac ( talk) 21:34, 13 November 2015 (UTC) reply
I think it's used as a genericized trademark in Hungarian, too; and it is used generically (I think) in the title of a YouTube video in Romanian here. As a title this is acceptable by WP:RFOREIGN: "Original or official names of people, places, institutions, publications or products".
Weak retarget to Saint-Gobain, its manufacturer ½ndash; but it's not mentioned there. Si Trew ( talk) 01:35, 15 November 2015 (UTC) reply
Best I could quickly figure out Rigips is the main supplier of gypsum cement board in Germany, just as Gyproc is the original/main brand of drywall in Canada, so likely the trademark has become the generic term. This is en Wikipedia though, and english speakers would not know the brand name Rigips. If it went red someone might profile what is likely a notable company.

The result of the discussion was keep Eye crusties, delete the rest, noting that Sleepies was withdrawn. -- BDD ( talk) 16:54, 24 November 2015 (UTC) reply

No claim in the article that any of these phrases are related. Eye potato sure sounds like potato eye. Delete as invented by the editor to inflate his page creation counts Legacypac ( talk) 20:57, 13 November 2015 (UTC) reply

  • Delete all - none of these colloquial names are listed at the target. Sleepies are naps, and potato eyes are a blemish on a potato. Lots of things can encrust on the eye, sleep sugar is hopelessly vague (could refer to NyQuil), eyes in cheese refers to Swiss cheese and others, and on and on. Ivanvector 🍁 ( talk) 21:27, 13 November 2015 (UTC) reply
  • Comment My instinct was to keep "sleepies", but now I've done a bit of Googling I'm no longer sure. In any case, here's a survey on what people call it; apart from "sleepies" and "eye crusties", none of these are even listed as options. Sideways713 ( talk) 22:10, 13 November 2015 (UTC) reply

Delete. WP:RFD#D2 confusing, not at target. I thought I was the only one left in the world who calls a downmarket newspaper a "hack-rag" 8 (rag being slang for newspaper, hack short for hack writer). But I can't find online RS for this. This is a Neelix redirect; I'm disinclined to list the variants. Si Trew ( talk) 16:11, 13 November 2015 (UTC) reply

Delete all variants as they don't match the target Legacypac ( talk) 20:00, 13 November 2015 (UTC) reply

Delete. (and see #Onebody, below: I am hesitant to combine them.) Neelix redirects, WP:RFD#D2 confusing, not at target, no internal links beyond this discussion, stats below noise level (<1 a day). Were it to be a word it would not be a WP:NOUN, anyway. Si Trew ( talk) 15:29, 13 November 2015 (UTC) reply

Yeah, looking closer, stats for that are 75 over 90 days which is quite low, but pretty evenly spread (bot activity tends to be in bursts every two or three days or so, with nowt else in between.) Thanks for looking into it. Si Trew ( talk) 17:42, 13 November 2015 (UTC) reply

List of redirects to Fyodor Terentyev
Discussion for Fyodor Terentyev

It is inconceivable that there need to be 47 redirect variations on the name of a Russian cross country skier from the 50s. Surely this just leads to his name being misspelled all over the internet. Delete all, including the Russian one. Full list [1] Legacypac ( talk) 08:11, 13 November 2015 (UTC) reply

Not just all over the Internet, but all over Wikipedia too, if we're not careful.
The only redirect actually in use is Fedor Terentjev (in three articles: Cross-country skiing at the 1956 Winter Olympics – Men's 30 kilometres, Cross-country skiing at the 1956 Winter Olympics – Men's 50 kilometres and Cross-country skiing at the 1956 Winter Olympics – Men's 4 × 10 kilometre relay). (I am pretty sure that the other Olympic years in which he's linked directly e.g. Cross-country skiing at the 1936 Winter Olympics – Men's 4 × 10 km relay are just via the {{ Footer Olympic Champions XC Relay Men}} template.)
So I think, for now, we should Keep Fedor Terentjev because this is the article discussing what his bio said he competed in, so perhaps that is how it was spelled by the Olympic committee. But Delete by default all not mentioned in this discussion as WP:RFD#D2 confusing. I'll check stats for any outliers, and also try to find out if it's just a spelling mistake or an official transliteration for the '56 Olympics. Si Trew ( talk) 11:01, 13 November 2015 (UTC) reply
  • Keep Feodor Terentiev as a published misspelling [2] (I assume that's named after him since it's also in Karelia where he's from). Weak keep all the other Terentievs as somewhat-plausible mistaken transcriptions (ть always gets mangled; the official romanisation systems have it as t' which looks absurd and so individuals with it in their names always use ad hoc spellings). Delete all the eye-dialect "Tsyar" spellings, the German-style transcriptions with "w", the Cyrillic-with-accents which is never used in the real world, etc. per Si Trew. 210.6.254.106 ( talk) 12:13, 13 November 2015 (UTC) reply
  • Keep Fedor Terentjev (which is not a Neelix redirect, and is indeed the spelling that appears in the 1956 Olympic report) and Fedor Terentyev (which is a Neelix redirect) as harmless cheap redirects that may aid searching. (The latter isn't getting any page views to speak of, but it's a plausible transliteration; keeping it may have minimal upside, but no downside.) Delete all the redirects with an S or a W. Sideways713 ( talk) 13:51, 13 November 2015 (UTC) reply

The are LOTS of games that are not video games but involve one player. Single game could refer to any kind of game anywhere. Let's have a single game of chess or cricket or football today.

Someone searching this term is NOT looking for tree frogs. It is a symptom of a variety of medical conditions, so since we don't want to suggest it is one medical condition to the exclusion of others, delete all three. Legacypac ( talk) 05:40, 13 November 2015 (UTC) reply

Comment. We have white-lipped frog (primary), white-lipped frog (disambiguation) and the three entries on it, White-lipped tree frog (primary), White-lipped tree frog (disambiguation) and the two entries on it, white-lipped tamarin, white-lipped snake, white-lipped python, White-lipped tree viper → Trimeresurus albolabris, White-lipped peccary, White-lipped snail, white-lipped mud turtle, White-lipped Bandicoot → Clara's echymipera, White-lipped deer → Thorold's deer and the Ukinga girdled lizard has white lips. (The white rhinoceros doesn't have white lips, but section "Naming" devotes a good chunk to the idea that "white" came from Dutch from its broad (wijd) lips/mouth.)
But amazingly enough we have managed all these years without white-lipped or white lipped. Make of that what you will. Both Common tree frog and White-lipped tree frog have been moved once each in the past, but only to change capitalization. white-lipped frog was moved i 2013 from its Linnean name.

Misleading redirect, the target page does not mention the character's cards at all. Redirect should be deleted because no other articles has a list of cards the character uses and it is not likely a plausible search term, especially since we already have Seto Kaiba redirecting to List of Yu-Gi-Oh! characters, which seems sufficient enough 173.3.78.156 ( talk) 02:23, 13 November 2015 (UTC) reply

The result of the discussion was convert to DAB, with thanks to Si Trew for doing the work. JohnCD ( talk) 18:39, 20 November 2015 (UTC) reply

Not sure. This section to which this redirects does mention Ramón "Finito" Rivera once - this is the only mention in the article. We have, to my eye, other likely candidates including Ricardo López (boxer) (to which Ricardo "Finito" Lopez redirects), but not Ricardo "Finito" López with the diacritical mark).

We could convert it to a DAB or hatnote the two, but it might be better just delete it, and let the search engine do it. Stats average less than one a day, with the odd peak to 6 or 8, created just under 2 years ago and no change since. Nothing outside this discussion links to it.

The term "Non-objective", while also related to abstract art, has as a primary dictionary meaning "(of a person or their judgment) influenced by personal feeling or opinions in considering and representing facts." Therefore it is not an appropriate redirect so DELETE, along with all corruptions of it listed. I've not nominated another list mirroring this one Non-objective art etc so people looking for art will still be presented with redirects. Legacypac ( talk) 00:14, 13 November 2015 (UTC) reply

I found this, which might be RS:
and could be useful as a citation for The dictionary definition of nonobjectivist at Wiktionary; probably not here at WP though. Si Trew ( talk) 02:27, 13 November 2015 (UTC) reply

Comment. The simple versions CAN refer to art but not primarily — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.244.23.195 ( talk • contribs) 04:48, 13 November 2015(UTC

  • Comment. For the general sense, what's the difference, between being non-objective and being subjective (a DAB)? I realise English doesn't have to obey the law of excluded middle, but I think these words happen to. Si Trew ( talk)
  • Comment:
Non-objectivism, is used legit in Samuel Lewis Shane
Nonobjective is used legit in AP Studio Art, Ibram Lassaw and Al Held.

Comment That's an excellent point, I go further and suggest that perhaps we ought to have more than one type of redirect. Case one — this is a real word and while we don't have an article about that specific term is another term that you may well be interested in. Case two — this isn't a real word but a plausible misspelling of a real word so we will direct you to what we believe is the appropriate article. If this were done, then re-users of Wikipedia wouldn't be contributing to turning fake words into real words.-- S Philbrick (Talk) 22:44, 14 November 2015 (UTC) reply
