Implausible typo. Was created in error back in 2010 as a result of a page move which was immediately reverted.

Delete. No reliable sources found for this nickname (a pun on "genitalia"). Google search turns up various performers, no obvious primary topic.

- Delete, no reliable sources, all seem to be
WP:CIRCULAR, IMDb and unreliable tabloids. There's one source that says the stage name is for an actress named Alana, so it's plausible, but doesn't have a last name. Maybe the editor who created the redirect has a source?

- Abstain as redirect creator. When I added this redirect back in December 2009, the page
Alana Evans looked like
this, with an uncited claim that she had used the name "Jenna Talia" in two films but hated it so much she switched back to Alana Evans. I'm not the one who added that claim, I merely created a redirect on the basis of it. I don't care if the redirect is deleted or not. (Frankly I'm surprised this name wasn't snatched up by a drag queen decades ago.) —

There are three film songs with the same title (

2007, and
2009). The first two are versions of the same song while the third is a different one. Propose to disambiguate as there is no

- The so-called greengrocers apostrophe ("apostrophe's" etc as a plural) is simply a basic grammatical error and needs no rule and no redirect, anymore than other simple errors such as "sheeps" or "thruway" or "got arrested" etc. need rules and redirects. You just correct them.
- The redirect is also vaguely insulting by the way. I still do a little mental stutter-step when writing "its" vs "it's". Sometimes I might get it wrong. I would be proud to be thereby mistaken for a grocer (an honorable and necessary profession), but actual grocers might not take so well to being used as a metaphor for illiteracy.

Garbage Patch State as the top search result, so NJ is not clearly the main target for this redirect.

- Comment a sourced mention could be added at
list of U.S. state and territory nicknames. On the other hand, it has also been used as a pejorative for Malaysia's
Penang state (mentioned e.g. at
history of Penang), and I'm not sure it would be worth a disambiguation. On the third hand, a nickname which has been discussed in reliable sources is certainly a valid search term, and writing about such a nickname in a neutral fashion in Wikipedia is not an "attack".

No incoming links; very few page-views (~1 monthly lifetime); arguably violates R3

- Restore article and send to AfD. In spite of the blank and redirect edit summary, if it has no sources (and no mention elsewhere on WP, especially at the page considered for targeting the redirect), it should go to AfD or have been PRODed.
WP:BLAR is not a good
alternative to deletion when it results in a redirect without mention.
Mdewman6 (

- Restore and send to AfD per Mdewman6. R3 requires redirects to be recently created, and speedy deletion requires all revisions of the article to meet one or more criteria. As a former article created over a decade ago this is about as far away from meeting R3 as it's possible for a redirect to be.

- Elon Musk does an order of magnitude more announcing potentially notable things for the first time on Twitter than almost every other notable person on Twitter, especially in the business sphere, so there is a lot more justification for attaching his name to this target than almost any other person's name. That doesn't mean it's necessarily a good redirect, but it does mean that if the consensus is to delete this then there is absolutely no justification for anybody else's name to be used as a shortcut here.

1966 British film adaptation retains the titular temperature even if it's outside the U.S. The same might need to happen with
