Unlikely capitalization. (@ Steel1943:, you didn't spot this one, did you?) - Champion ( talk) ( contribs) (Formerly TheChampionMan1234) 12:11, 22 June 2016 (UTC) reply

Haha! Foiled again! Sneaky redirect tricked me with "steel" at the end rather than the beginning! (By the way, I'm neutral on this one.) Steel1943 ( talk) 12:14, 22 June 2016 (UTC) reply
  • Delete. Redundant capitalisation variant and a remnant of a vandalously created page. I would just like to take the opportunity to reiterate my general annoyance at redirects for unnecessary capitalisation variants and my wish that these could be explicitly allowed to be dealt with in a speedy way. Uanfala ( talk) 13:56, 22 June 2016 (UTC) reply
I agree to an extent. I often find myself wishing R3 wasn't restricted to "recently created" redirects (kind of like the "Neelix concession," which I've wanted under the R3 umbrella instead of G6). However, I'm afraid of abuse if that were to be opened up. -- Tavix ( talk) 16:14, 22 June 2016 (UTC) reply
I'm beginning to think that prodding might be the most sensible way of doing it. I'm wondering if it can be extended to redirects. Uanfala ( talk) 17:32, 22 June 2016 (UTC) reply

This is actually a girl's name, albeit an uncommon one. I don't see how this would be a typo for Linux. - Champion ( talk) ( contribs) (Formerly TheChampionMan1234) 12:07, 22 June 2016 (UTC) reply

Delete WP:R#D2 confusing and WP:RFOREIGN. Chinese name of a North Korean city. The target is not known by this name in English, while some Chinese localities are known by this name (see e.g. zh:Template:PRC admin/data/44/02/04/101/201 for one in Shaoguan; Google says there's another one in Huizhou; etc.). 210.6.254.106 ( talk) 11:25, 22 June 2016 (UTC) reply

Not a valid name in any language. - Champion ( talk) ( contribs) (Formerly TheChampionMan1234) 05:12, 22 June 2016 (UTC) reply

This is similar to me nominating something like Steel worker. Oh right ... I did do that. Steel1943 ( talk) 12:00, 22 June 2016 (UTC) reply

WP:REDLINK I doubt readers will get what they want, they would just get a domain name. It makes sense for we have Microsoft Japan and Google China, for example. All of them basically have links from other articles. - Champion ( talk) ( contribs) (Formerly TheChampionMan1234) 05:01, 22 June 2016 (UTC) reply

  • Delete . Not a directory #7: "Simple listings without context information. Examples include, but are not limited to: listings of business alliances, clients, competitors, employees (except CEOs, supervisory directors and similar top functionaries), equipment, estates, offices, products and services, sponsors, subdivisions and tourist attractions. Information about relevant single entries with encyclopedic information should be added as sourced prose. Lists of creative works in a wider context are permitted." So Google China has notable stuff as a single entry. AngusWOOF ( barksniff) 21:47, 23 June 2016 (UTC) reply
  • Delete per nominator. Some of these may be notable in their own right, and even the non-notable ones aren't well served by the current target or any other existing target. 210.6.254.106 ( talk) 06:45, 28 June 2016 (UTC) reply
  • Delete per WP:REDLINK. Some of these are likely notable and could have articles. ---- Patar knight - chat/ contributions 02:01, 29 June 2016 (UTC) reply

Should this redirect to Mac OS instead, as it is now renamed macOS (note the lowercase m). Please see Talk:OS X for more information. (I am neutral about this redirect, but just thought I'd bring it up here)- Champion ( talk) ( contribs) (Formerly TheChampionMan1234) 04:22, 22 June 2016 (UTC) reply

  • It appears it has already gone through an RM and failed to achieve the consensus to move. More interesting is the fact that the result of the RM is being repeated here... For now, I believe it is appropriate to convert to a dab page until "macOS" becomes the common name. —Best regards, Codename Lisa ( talk) 08:45, 26 June 2016 (UTC) reply

The result of the discussion was retarget to computability. -- Tavix ( talk) 18:05, 2 July 2016 (UTC) reply

The ability to calculate, the implied meaning of these redirects, is distinct from calculation. I assume calculatability is an important topic in computer science, but I don't know what article to point to. Oiyarbepsy ( talk) 03:52, 22 June 2016 (UTC) reply
