- Speedy delete: This redirect is obviously a mistake. ― Susmuffin Talk 22:17, 4 November 2021 (UTC)
- Delete slowly. This isn't useful but there is no evidence that this was created in error and CSD G6 does not apply per
Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion/Log/2019 November 5#Wikidata redirects.

- It seems to me that someone copied the title line of
d:Q20452771, having accessed that in the course of copying some content from
ms:Saadiah. The 2019 precedent concerned a variety of circumstances under which a redirect could be created with this sort of title, and I think it'd be one thing if an experienced user created this because they were explicitly of the opinion that a Wikidata ID makes a good disambiguator. But in a case like this I think it's safe to assume error. (After all, anytime we G6 as erroneous there's some level of assumption involved. It's always possible that someone thought their username is supposed to be part of the article's title, or that there isn't supposed to be a colon after
User, etc.) -- Tamzin cetacean needed (she/they) 23:33, 4 November 2021 (UTC)

Apparently a miscapitalisation. Not sure if this is plausible, but if yes, should probably be retargeted to
ClO2. ~~~~

- Plausible in that I typed this miscapitalization and, when I wasn't redirected, I created the article. (Note that proper capitalization requires a properly coordinated lift of the Shift key; possible to mistime.)
- If retargeting to ClO2 is the policy, then go ahead. SSSheridan ( talk) 00:22, 5 November 2021 (UTC)

- This redirect is an attempt to help readers who have a slightly mistaken idea of what they are looking for. The redirect seems harmless at worst but probably helpful. People forget an exact formula (BaMnO4).-- Smokefoot ( talk) 17:15, 4 November 2021 (UTC)

- Delete per LaundryPizza03. The correct BaMnO4 exists. It's not like we have a {{ R from incorrect molecular formula}} rcat, and having such redirects can lead to confusion. Mdewman6 ( talk) 01:15, 5 November 2021 (UTC)

- The result of the discussion was retarget to Mafia. Hog Farm Talk 15:33, 11 November 2021 (UTC)
Redirect to Mafia. It seems like a good idea to redirect "The Something" to "Something" when they're related, and obviously these are related. On the other hand, The Mafia is also related to the current target. What's better? 74.98.192.38 ( talk) 14:29, 4 November 2021 (UTC)
- Retarget. Although the Sicilian Mafia are the most common group referred in results for a google search for "The Mafia" excluding Wikipedia, it's not quite primary as the New York Mafia, and (Italian) mafias in general also get hits. Thryduulf ( talk) 15:43, 4 November 2021 (UTC)
- Retarget to Mafia: This is the main topic. ― Susmuffin Talk 22:20, 4 November 2021 (UTC)

- Experimental treatment of androgenic alopecia → Management of hair loss ( talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/ retarget/ delete ]
Remnants of a hopeless article, now fortunately redirected elsewhere by Doc James ( talk · contribs), but the name still popping up in Wikipedia search and whenever searching for "experimental treatment" in the Visual Editor's link function. Since I quite often have to wikilink "experimental treatment" in various articles, this has become annoying. Needless to say, the redirect is not linked to from mainspace and is certainly not a popular search term. — kashmīrī TALK 21:27, 15 October 2021 (UTC)
- Keep as a {{
R from merge}}. Content from this article was merged into the target and at least some of it seems to still be there, so this is required for attribution purposes. It also had 77 pages views this year before the RfD nomination showing it is actually getting some use.

Delete. Seems an unlikely search and this shows 2 user views in 2021. Winston ( talk) 02:28, 29 October 2021 (UTC)Wrong redirect woops. Winston ( talk) 07:32, 29 October 2021 (UTC)- Is there anything about the topic at the target article? Nothing is explicitly labeled experimental, and I'm not knowledgeable about the topic enough to say if any of the treatments therein are. Assuming "androgenic" means "in men", I can live with that assumption. It may be better to preserve the history by moving the redirect to a more helpful term, such as
Hair loss management. --

- @ BDD: I read the section Management of hair loss#Research to be about treatments that could informally be described as "experimental". Wikt:andogrenic defines the word as meaning "Of, relating to, or being an androgen.", a hormone that is (typically) present at much higher levels in men than women.

- Kate Miller → Kate Miller-Heidke ( talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/ retarget/ delete ]
This redirect is causing errors and confusion. It was created following an AfD for Kate Miller Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Kate_Miller resulting in deletion. The problem is that now the AfD for the non-notable Kate Miller "points" to the notable Kate Miller-Heidke which is wrong. It also causes errors in the Deletion log which also points to the wrong Kate Miller - see here: [1]. I'm unclear how to correct this and reached out to the redirect creator who told me to "take it to RfD". Netherzone ( talk) 01:51, 4 November 2021 (UTC)
- Delete – Kate Miller-Heidke is never referred to as Kate Miller. -- Michael Bednarek ( talk) 02:03, 4 November 2021 (UTC)
- Delete. A search on Google books revealed that there are some people called "Kate Miller" mentioned in books (none of them were the actress who was the subject of the former Wikipedia article). Maybe someone will want to write an article on one of those other Kate Millers. Kate Miller-Heidke is not Kate Miller, so it is unhelpful to have a redirect to Kate Miller-Heidke.-- Toddy1 (talk) 09:34, 4 November 2021 (UTC)
- Delete – Not a name used by the target. The sole purpose seems to be to impede the re-creation of a recently deleted biography. Cabayi ( talk) 10:59, 4 November 2021 (UTC)

- Keep! It may seem too vague, but it
looks like UTM is the only university in the world to have had faculty of this name (
renamed in 2013). There's no rule against having redirects from titles that could refer to lots of things, if in practice they only refer to one thing. Plus the singular "system" makes this an unlikely search term for someone looking for some generic CS faculty. I have
added the previous name to the target article.Also note that I'm bundling
Faculty of computer science and information system. If this RfD is closed as keep, I'll create
Faculty of Computer Science and Information System and categorize both as {{
avoided double redirect}}s to it. --
