• Margaret Porteous → Great Plague of London  ( talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure:  keep/ retarget/ delete ] 

The name "Margaret Porteous" is sometimes identified as the first person recorded to have died in the plague outbreak, but this trivia is not currently discussed in the article and has not been for a decade. Consequently, it is just a surprise dead-end for anyone who searches for this term. Unless the term "Margaret Porteous" can be added to the target article with acceptable sourcing, the redirect is useless and should be deleted. 50.248.234.77 ( talk) 22:36, 4 July 2020 (UTC) reply

This redirect has a long history of being problematic. It was first created in September 2017 as a redirect to iPhone X as a {{ R from incorrect name}}. In October 2017, it was boldly retargeted to iPhone, then subsequently retargeted back to iPhone X as a result of this November 2017 RfD. After another series of bold retargeting to iPhone XR, the redirect was deleted in an October 2018 RfD. It was recreated in September 2019 with iPhone XS as the target, then deleted via WP:G4. In its current form, the redirect was recreated again in October 2019 with iPhone XS as the target. It was then boldly retargeted several times, variously to iPhone#Models, a now-deleted disambiguation page, and now currently to iPhone SE (2nd generation). In my view, this redirect is inherently problematic because there is no phone called the iPhone 9, and a redirect to any one device may be confusing to readers. The one target I may understand is iPhone#Models, but I see no reason to diverge from the result of the October 2018 RfD that deleted this redirect. Mz7 ( talk) 21:34, 4 July 2020 (UTC) reply

• Retarget to iPhone#Models. Given that there is an iPhone 8 and an iPhone 10 (albeit stylised iPhone X) this is a very plausible search term - as the repeated recreations demonstrate. As there is no model by this name, we should point the searcher at the list so they can find the model they are interested in and/or learn that there was no model 9 rather than be left perplexed about why we don't have an article about it. The last RfD only had a delete outcome because nobody could agree which target was best but agreed it wasn't the then current one - that close was understandable but resulted in something that was clearly unsatisfactory and a bad deal for readers. After this discussion concludes, the redirect should be protected to prevent further undiscussed retargetting. Thryduulf ( talk) 22:03, 4 July 2020 (UTC) reply

• To all those !voting delete. This is consistently getting 250 hits a month. That's extremely high for a redirect and so very clearly this is something people are looking for. We obviously don't want an article on this topic so a redlink is the exact worst thing we can do for readers here - our job is to educate people and we don't do that by deleting the redirect and giving them (if they are lucky) unhelpful search results. Thryduulf ( talk) 00:34, 5 July 2020 (UTC) reply
• Retarget to iPhone#Models or better yet to List of iOS devices#iPhone. This is a plausible search term as Thryduulf has correctly pointed out and I don't understand how can someone get confused if this redirects to a list of models (where there is a clear description of each iPhone model). Also, we should avoid deleting this if it will eventually get recreated by some random user as it has many times in the past. CycloneYoris ^talk! 01:14, 5 July 2020 (UTC) reply
• Retarget back to IPhone X. Those who are finding for an "iPhone 9" are probably searching for the iPhone that succeeded the iPhone 8 series, which is iPhone X. I don't see how that is misleading or confusing, seeing that Windows 9 redirects to Windows 10. -- pandakekok9 ( talk) Junk the Philippine anti-terror law! 01:47, 5 July 2020 (UTC) reply

  The iPhone X actually wasn't the successor to the iPhone 8—in an unusual release, it was released alongside the iPhone 8. If you are looking for the successor to the iPhone 8, another candidate for that would be either iPhone XS or iPhone XR (both also released alongside each other), but this whole thing is so contrived and ambiguous that the best solution is most likely to just redirect to a list of all the models ( iPhone#Models) and let the reader decide what they're looking for.

• Delete and salt. I appreciate the effort the nominator took to demonstrate how harmful the redirect has been over the years, especially since it was recreated. I see no reason to differ from the previous result, and I especially echo BDD's rationale there: "Incorrect name for several different topics.

• I think there's enough here for a BCA, but for now a disambiguation page is probably the best option ( the pageviews are decent for a redirect).

• Retarget to concentration camps. A scholar, whose name I am blocking on, did an authoritative history of the term concentration camp. I am not sure Gulags meet the definition, but all the allied camps where foreigners from hostile countries were rounded up did meet the definition of a concentration camp. Rounded up and confined, without charge, makes it a concentration camp, so the camps for Americans and Canadians of Japanese descent were concentration camps.

• Retarget to Internment. There is page history at Concentration camp, which was merged to Internment. See Internment § Defining internment and concentration camp. Category:World War II internment camps and Category:World War II concentration camps suggest that this is a topic area that could have a broad-concept article covering all these, but that article apparently hasn't been written yet. One might just view "internment" as a euphemism for "concentration", or perhaps a subjective distinction can be made based on the relative degree of abuse of those interred. – wbm1058 ( talk) 18:21, 8 July 2020 (UTC) reply

The result of the discussion was keep. It's probably closer to a "no consensus" for Patriarchate of Rome, but the result remains the same. -- Tavix ^{( talk)} 14:45, 19 July 2020 (UTC) reply

• Patriarch of Rome → Pope  ( talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure:  keep/ retarget/ delete ]
• Patriarchate of Rome → Holy See  ( talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure:  keep/ retarget/ delete ] 

Should these go to the same place, or is the current setup good? The Pope is the Patriarch of Rome, and the Holy See includes his ecclesiastical sphere, but it's a good deal "larger" than that, both geographically (the Latin Patriarchate of Jerusalem and the Melkite Catholic Patriarchate of Antioch are subject to the Pope, not coëval with him) and in scope (the Holy See functions as a state under international law, not merely as an ecclesiastical jurisdiction). Since the patriarchate is basically just ecclesiastical (nobody cares about Francis-as-patriarch except in an ecclesiastical sense), I'm wondering if we'd do better to send both to the Pope article. Or if it is important to keep the Patriarchate redirect where it is, maybe because the title of Patriarch isn't as common anymore, i.e. it's more historical, should we change the Patriarch redirect to match? But then, it is a title of the Pope. So...I'm rather confused here, and that's why I brought both to RFD instead of being bold :-) Nyttend backup ( talk) 17:39, 19 June 2020 (UTC) reply

• Keep. I entirely understand the nom's problem. I think the status quo is fine; there are enough links in both articles for a reader to discover subtleties of meaning. I don't agree with a redirect to Latin Church. Shhhnotsoloud ( talk) 08:02, 27 June 2020 (UTC) reply

• Keep Patriarch of Rome per above. Weak keep Patriarchate of Rome - I've skim read all the articles suggested above and some of those linked. None of them we really perfect targets, but various templates and links expect it to be covered on the Holy See article so I think any change could confuse people with different targets for the same term depending which link they followed.

"The term otokonoko is used interchangibly with the terms josō/josōko (女装/女装子, "transvestite" or "male crossdresser") for men who dress as women" I'll add Dansou (women crossdress as men) to that term, but it should have a hatnote to Danso.
