Appears to be some age-old practice which allowed duplicate articles to be created with "En/" prefix. Only 3 such redirects exist today. No incoming links & non-significant pageviews ( 479 views combined for the 3 redirects over past 6.5 years), probably accidental visitors like me. --- CX Zoom(^he/_him) ( ^{let's talk}| _contribs) 20:24, 3 April 2022 (UTC) reply

• (Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio) → Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio  ( talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure:  keep/ retarget/ delete ] 

I can find no obvious reaoson for this redirect to exist. Nothing links here, it got only 1 view so far this year and only 22 last year (which is higher than I would expect, but not that high), there is no talk page and no summary on creation that sheds any light. Google refuses to distinguish uses with and without parentheses so is actively unhelpful. Thryduulf ( talk) 17:46, 3 April 2022 (UTC) reply

• "rose tinted spectacles" → Nostalgia  ( talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure:  keep/ retarget/ delete ] 

Could be retargeted to rose-colored glasses, but quotation marks make this implausible/ WP:UNNATURAL. 1234qwer 1234qwer 4 13:45, 3 April 2022 (UTC) reply

@ 1234qwer1234qwer4: I'd have no problem with retargeting (the rose-colored glasses dab page apparently didn't exist when I created this).

But (given that it's a 12-year-old edit I don't remember anything about) I'm not sure what the deal was with the quotes. I can't think of any reason I'd have intentionally included them in the title.

I'm guessing it was an oversight due to cutting-and-pasting the term from a source that included the quotes, which- if the page doesn't already exist- apparently gives you a redlink like this which lets you create the page but includes the quotes.

I notice I created rose tinted spectacles shortly after, so I perhaps realised my mistake. At any rate, we don't really need the quoted version of this redirect, so probably better to just delete it.

• Kong references in King Kong (2005 film) → King Kong (2005 film)  ( talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure:  keep/ retarget/ delete ] 

It seems this redirect might be refined to King Kong (2005 film)#References to original 1933 King Kong, but as the redirect is worded, it may be unclear what "Kong" is in regards to a search term, and the phrasing of the redirect is rather implausible. This reflect would probably be better deleted. Steel1943 ( talk) 21:11, 25 March 2022 (UTC) reply

• High Princess (Stache) → Lady Gaga  ( talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure:  keep/ retarget/ delete ] 

Confusing/unclear redirect. It seems that a song with some sort of variation of this title (but not exactly this title) was intended to be on Artpop, but it looks like it didn't make the cut. Also, this redirect was at one point targeting Zedd (producer) which targets Zedd. It also seems the phrase "high princess" is nowhere on Wikipedia. Probably best to delete this vague/unclear redirect. Steel1943 ( talk) 18:40, 19 March 2022 (UTC) reply

• Weak retarget to Clarity (Zedd album)#Other songs. Apparently this refers to the Lady Gaga promotional version of Stache. However, my !vote is only weak as I'm not convinced that the parenthetical formatting of the redirect is plausible. eviolite (talk) 03:10, 20 March 2022 (UTC) reply

• Areo Magazine → Helen Pluckrose#Areo Magazine  ( talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure:  keep/ retarget/ delete ] 

This is an inappropriate redirect for the magazine ( https://areomagazine.com/). It was established by Malhar Mali in 2016 and edited by him until 2018. The ~3 year editorship of Pluckrose does not warrant a redirect to Pluckrose, nor would it to its current editor (Iona Italia). Headbomb { t · c · p · b} 14:10, 16 March 2022 (UTC) reply

• Weak keep given that the target mentions more about the magazine than Helen Pluckrose's role, and we have no other articles that mention this magazine, apart from the articles that are using magazine in the citations, which makes a search more confusing for the reader. There is Areopagitica but the mention there is trivial. Another option is to retarget to the Aero International magazine as an {{ R from misspelling}}. In fact I first read this nomination as Aero Magazine! Jay (talk) 20:53, 23 March 2022 (UTC) reply

• Delete to encourage article creation. The Appleton MSA is a two-county area, and the Fox Cities article covers the Appleton-Oshkosh-Neenah, WI CSA, a larger, three-county area. See Wisconsin statistical areas for more information. - Eureka Lott 02:18, 20 March 2022 (UTC) reply
• Delete Appleton, WI MSA and Appleton, WI Metropolitan Statistical Area; retarget Appleton, WI metropolitan area to Fox Cities. A metropolitan statistical area (MSA) is a specific census-defined entity that has no mention in either article. A metropolitan area, however, is a much broader term that can reasonably include more informal collections like the Fox Cities. (By the way, there are a lot more multi-county MSAs/μSAs redirecting to their primary city with little if any mention, and they should be nominated too if this gets deleted.) eviolite (talk) 03:05, 20 March 2022 (UTC) reply

  I oppose the retargeting of the latter, as this might create even more confusion. The metropolitan area can be considered the Fox cities or the MSA as defined by the Census Bureau - I think that a disamb page would make more sense therefore.

  I agree however that there are way more redirects that should be deleted as they have the same problem. Regards, Yellowcard ( talk) 11:30, 21 March 2022 (UTC) reply

I suggest that BeLucky either (a) rename G D Goenka Public School to GD Goenka Public School (franchise) or a title with some other disambiguator, and leave the redirect pointing to the Vasant Kunj school as the WP:primary topic, or (b) start a move request to rename GD Goenka Public School to GD Goenka Public School Vasant Kunj and G D Goenka Public School to GD Goenka Public School, then check that the redirect still points to GD Goenka Public School, the new primary topic. -- Paul_012 ( talk) 07:34, 11 March 2022 (UTC) reply
