Jayce Salloum is a different person, so either there should be an article about him, or there should not, but it shouldn't redirect to Jackie Salloum. It's not a credible misspelling.

- I agree, it should not be a redirect. It looks as if Jayce Slalom is notable enough for his own article,

- Hello, I am the author of the article and am not 100% sure if I did this correctly. Upon my searching for Jayce Salloum I would always be directed to Jackie Salloum, so I created the article - this was my first time authoring/editing an article. Please let me know how I can correctly input this information in order to have a proper article for the artist Jayce Salloum - who I believe is notable enough to merit his own wiki article

inexplicably converted back into a redirect by

User:Gorthian, as they seem to think that the Corie.waugh-version was a copy-right violation. (I haven´t looked into it). It might be an idea that Corie.waguh develops the article in user-space,

- Yes, the text in that version matched the text from a couple of different websites. Corie.waugh Is brand new, and undoubtably unfamiliar with our copyright policies. That version has been revdeleted now, so if there is to be an article, it needs to be started from scratch. I hope
Corie.waugh would still like to work on it. —

The only mention of these centers at the target article is that they exist. So we can safely say any reader searching for these terms already knows at least as much as he or she could learn from the page. --

- Delete per nom. If the branch is notable this can be created as a redlink and mentioned in the school's navbox. Otherwise it's treated like a branch office (e.g. We've got centers in (list of cities).)

[3] so it would fit under their English department, but since there is no separate article on Texas Tech's English department or a section for this journal, this doesn't need a link. If the founder Jill Patterson had an article, this could also be a redirect candidate.

The church it redirects to is a different church, as that article points out. Indeed, the article links back to this redirect. Either someone should create this article, or the redirect ought to be deleted.

- Interesting. The linked article does in fact mention the GELK church and gives information about it (namely, that it's German-speaking), so in that sense the redirect does its job. On the other hand, there's at least a tiny risk of confusion owing to the possibility that the redirect will make someone think the two churches are the same. Whatever happened to the "redirects from antonyms" problem; was that ever resolved? This isn't an antonym, but the issues seem somewhat related. --

Delete. The 2010 film article was deleted at AfD back in 2012, and this redirect to the unrelated 1930 film appears to have been created in error.

I assume these are authors on a work about race and intelligence, but neither are mentioned at all at the target article.

I've noted the target article as one with many redirects that need attention. For now, I'm just nominating some of the most egregious. This one is meaningless without context. Many different groups could have their IQ compared. It's an unlikely search term, and not one we could really serve. Note that
Between-group differences in IQ was PRODed back in 2010. Since this really should've redirected there, and thus been speedily deleted
G8, this is arguably a
G6 case today.

Delete. This film article was redirected but looking at the sources and external links that were used, as well as some of the comments in the edit history, it appears that this was nothing more than a hoax. That being so this redirect serves no purpose.

- Also,
Wikipedia:Bold was formerly a disambiguation page (which is why the nominated redirect exists), but at some point, a
primary topic was determined somehow for this term (pointing towards
Wikipedia:Be bold), and a hatnote pointing to
MOS:BOLD (a redirect that directs readers to information about bold font) was added to the top of
Wikipedia:Be bold. In my opinion, for the term "bold" without any variants (bolded, bolding, etc.) definitely refers to the subject in
Wikipedia:Be bold, avoiding a
WP:SURPRISE. (
When Wikipedia:Bold was a disambiguation page, it only included 2 entries:
Wikipedia:Be bold and the target of
MOS:BOLD.
Wikipedia:Bold's most recent edit [redirecting to
Wikipedia:Be bold]
happened in December 2007.)

It doesn't look like these shortcuts were ever used, and doesn't look like they ever will be in regards to their current target. Unless there is a good retargeting option for these shortcuts can be thought of, it's probably best to delete them so they have the potential to be utilized for something else later.

These pseudo-namespace redirects are not useful, and we need to obtain consensus before creating similar redirects for other dab pages.
