2016 gubernatorial election

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 List of elections in 2016.---- Patar knight - chat/ contributions 21:41, 2 July 2016 (UTC) reply

The title of this redirect is too broad for current realities. Even in Nigeria, Edo State is not the only state with a gubernatorial election in 2016. Ondo State, Bayelsa State, Kogi State, etc all had some form of governorship elections dragged to 2016. It is also very likely that there will be some governorship elections in some other countries around the world. In my opinion, this redirect serves little positive purpose.

@ Stanleytux: see, for example, United States gubernatorial elections, 2016. -- Notecardforfree ( talk) 03:40, 26 June 2016 (UTC) reply
Alright, seen. well then, this could serve as a disambiguation page instead. What you think? Stanleytux ( talk) 05:27, 26 June 2016 (UTC) reply
I also support disambiguating this title, if an appropriate disambiguation page were to be created. -- Notecardforfree ( talk) 10:30, 26 June 2016 (UTC) reply
Added Nigerian elections to list. AngusWOOF ( bark • sniff) 15:40, 26 June 2016 (UTC) reply

Reunion (band)

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 keep. Consensus is that keeping the redirect is fine and that the "band" is arguably only notable for this song. ---- Patar knight - chat/ contributions 16:38, 3 July 2016 (UTC) reply

I think this redirect should be deleted in order to encourage a creation of an article. I'm not sure if redirecting a band to a song is appropriate. MrLinkinPark333 ( talk) 23:07, 25 June 2016 (UTC) reply

  • keep: I don't see how deleting the redirect is going to encourage anyone to create the article. Once when I created a redirect someone turned it into an article the next day! I have updated the target with a redlink to the band and added {{ r to related topic}} to the redirect, both of which changes may help. The redirect will help anyone typing Reunion in the search box and hoping for information about the band. -- Mirokado ( talk) 00:29, 26 June 2016 (UTC) reply
  • Comment having a WP:REDLINK will show people that an article needs to be created. On the other hand, was this actually a "band" (the target describes them as "an ad hoc group of studio musicians")? And on the third hand, for those of you who have one, did they actually produce any notable works besides the target? 210.6.254.106 ( talk) 02:35, 27 June 2016 (UTC) reply
  • Keep as I don't think the "band" has any notability outside the song. -- Tavix ( talk) 01:53, 2 July 2016 (UTC) reply

Transfiguration (song)

The result of the discussion was retarget to Transfiguration#Music. -- Tavix ( talk) 01:01, 2 July 2016 (UTC) reply

I think this redirect would be more appropriate to Open Heaven / River Wild because Transfiguration of Vincent has songs titled Transfiguration #1 and Transfiguration #2. MrLinkinPark333 ( talk) 23:03, 25 June 2016 (UTC) reply

Added Transfiguration #1 and #2 to the DAB list. AngusWOOF ( bark • sniff) 18:17, 28 June 2016 (UTC) reply

The result of the discussion was Delete, per WP:R3. « Gonzo fan2007 (talk) @ 19:51, 25 June 2016 (UTC) reply

Page created with a typo. Contents have since been moved to Divided We Fall (album) after a technical request. This essentially qualifies for redir typo, but it's so new that I thought RfD was appropriate. See Talk:Divided W Fall as well. —  Andy W. ( talk ·  ctb) 16:43, 25 June 2016 (UTC) reply

R3 is literally for newly created, implausible redirects. ---- Patar knight - chat/ contributions 18:47, 25 June 2016 (UTC) reply

The result of the discussion was Withrdawn by nominator. I withdraw this nomination because the content has been readded. Anarchyte ( work | talk) 12:36, 25 June 2016 (UTC) reply

"Bullet King" and "glitch" isn't mentioned in the target article. Note that the redirect was made as a result of an AfD. Anarchyte ( work | talk) 05:39, 25 June 2016 (UTC) reply

At the time the redirect was created, the article did mention the glitch (see this version). The section was deleted in this edit by ViperSnake151 with no explanation, despite the fact that the glitch had received a fair amount of press -- not enough for a standalone article, as decided at the AFD, but enough for mention in the game's main article. The solution, of course, is to restore the "Notable glitch" section (done), making this a valid and useful redirect. WikiDan61 ChatMe! ReadMe!! 12:24, 25 June 2016 (UTC) reply

The result of the discussion was delete. -- Tavix ( talk) 00:54, 2 July 2016 (UTC) reply

These redirects are not useful because the name of the subject does not include a slash, subpages are disabled in mainspace, and the redirects were created in 2012, not in the early days of Wikipedia. GeoffreyT2000 ( talk) 04:09, 25 June 2016 (UTC) reply
