As redirects, there seems to be no appropriate place for these to target per
WP:XY, given there is no appropriate information at
Pokémon which these redirects could refer, and the titles of the redirects do not show exclusivity to
Pokémon (anime), their current target which doesn't include such information either. The redirect
Cultural references in Pokémon was previously an article which was deleted in 2006 per
Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Cultural references in Pokémon (4th nomination), but then had its edit history restored in 2009. However, with all that being said, I am not seeing the content which was formerly at this title present in any Pokémon-related article, meaning the edit history should be safe to delete.

A Scholar search suggests that PLpro stands for "papain-like protease", which is not equivalent to papain itself. It's not mentioned at the target. Delete unless a justification can be provided. signed,

- Weak delete to encourage article creation. It does seem to be a protease that's been researched significantly because it turns up in coronaviruses, and other related ones like
3CLpro have significant articles. I don't think it's necessarily harmful to point it at Papain as it is at the moment (as the article does explain the mechanism) but it's not really all that helpful either, and while it's mentioned in several coronavirus-related articles it's not really discussed usefully anywhere else to retarget. ~

Film-title-to-director redirect for a film that entered the production pipeline a decade ago but appears never to have come out the other end as a completed film, and is not mentioned in the target article at all. The more serious problem is that a completely different film of the same title, by a different director, premiered this year -- meaning that a person who wants to find the 2020 film will get badly confused and misled by this (in fact, there's already an inbound link expecting the 2020 film). If I could find evidence that the Shapiro film had ever actually come out at all, then I'd just move this to a new title that added the year of release to the disambiguator -- but I can't find any such evidence, so deletion is the more appropriate response.

I'm not sure if the most appropriate target for these redirects is
Chandlery or

Delete Related to
the nom. from yesterday, this is an example of the mess that results when out-of-date redirects are nonetheless kept in the draftspace, all of which target an article that was itself never in the draftspace! (though I am fine keeping the now-title-matching
Draft:Goosebumps 2: Haunted Halloween in spite of that).

Delete all per nom since these were created as redirects to existing articles. (And for what it's worth, I do not believe this nomination is in any way similar to
Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion/Log/2020 August 25#Draft:Untitled Harley Quinn project.) 04:50, 26 August 2020 (UTC)
- Delete the "Untitled" one as it's plausible that title could be used for a future draft article about another sequel. Keep the rest as there is no benefit to deleting them - it is not plausible these will ever be needed for drafts about any other topic.

- Your "no benefit to deleting them" makes me think you spend very little time in draftspace maintenance, which depends heavily on
Special:AllPages, a tool that has 1) no way to suppress display of redirects and 2) can only display 200 draftspace pages at a time. This means a draftspace maintainer has to scroll past page, after page, after PAGE, containing mostly redirects similar to the ones above, before finally reaching a draft page needing maintenance such as
Draft:Gopi Einstein (The Scientist).

Wading and swimming are not the same thing. With only two rivers, I can't find enough entries to justify converting this to a dab page.

WP:PTMs, sort of:
Wading River (a dab), the redirects
Wading pool and
Wading bird (not to be confused with
Category:Wading birds). You would think this should be a subtopic of
Aquatic locomotion, or at least an associated term, but there's nothing in that article specifically about "wading". –
