I’d like to see this redirect re-targeted to
Rare (company). The redirect has already been re-targeted there by multiple users, and I agree because Rare was known as and spelled their name out as RARE and it seems a lot more likely that anybody would be looking for the gaming company than anything else when typing in RARE. --

- Oppose. "RARE" in itself is an acronym for two of the entries on the disambiguation page, being the
Ram Air Rocket Engine and the
Ronne Antarctic Research Expedition. The redirect in all caps was redirected to
Rare (company) unilaterally by a banned user and 2 IP users, all within the span of a month, which definitely does not set a precedent. The Rare video game company only stylizes their name in all caps; business-wise, it's still "Rare" without caps. In my eyes, this should not have priority over two plausible acronyms for "RARE", even if Banjo & Kazooie are fun to play with in Smash.

- Oppose; keep it at the current target. There is a significant burden of proof on an argument to retarget a redirect to such a well-populated disambiguation page as this one; no actual argument has been really raised as to why the video game company is such an obvious target as to redirect all traffic at RARE to that - that capitalisation is not even their legal business name, and as has been mentioned above there are specific actual uses of the capitalised version. The fact that a number of users have changed the target without raising strong arguments is not an argument itself; this is clearly an ambiguous title that should be at a disambiguation page. ~

- Oppose. As well as the two acronyms noted above, RARE can also stand for
Réseaux Associés pour la Recherche Européenne. Bad links to DAB pages get found and fixed; bad links to
WP:PTOPICs rarely do.

Not mentioned at the target list, I would suggest deletion, as the list is only for Wikipedia-notable women writers. If sources are available such that Venkatraghavan meets
notability guidelines, then we can write an article about her and add her to the list. signed,

Should this point to
Waste or
Garbage?
Garbage specifically mentions rubbish in the lead, although the redirect currently points to
Waste.

- Move
Rubbish (disambiguation) to primary as those two targets are equally plausible.
Nonsense should be linked from the dab page, as should "cheap, low-quality, low-value objects" if we have an article (I'd be surprised if we don't, but it's not listed at the Rubbish dab page, the
tat dab page only links to Wiktionary, the
junk dab page has nothing relevant and
dross is only about a specialised meaning.

- Move dab to primary per Thryduulf – looks sensible to me, especially since the dab page defines rubbish as (equally?) referring to waste and garbage and there is no clear reason to favor one over the other in a redirect.

Probably supposed to be one of those "status unclear" species targeting
Bucculatricidae (I retargeted the rest of them to the relevant section & rcat-templated them), but it's not mentioned in said article. It also probably doesn't exist at all, considering the sole result between google, google books and google scholar is a single hit to a Scribd document that's labelled "mapping of wikipedia index". No pageviews worth speaking of: 24 since mid-2015.
(Used to be a single-edit-created unreferenced stub with the wrong image & mis-pointed EL back in 2014 for about half a day before being redirected. I don't think that's history worth keeping, but figured I'd note it all the same)

Not mentioned in the target, does not appear to be an alternative name for it. Searching online, I found
this, which would suggest that Pikavee is from a fan-made non-canon Pokemon game. signed,

Delete; I myself have never seen anyone refer to these games by this name, nor could I find any website that refers to them by that name.
