Classical Chinese, actually :) This is the redirect used by people who change "zh-classical" to "en" in the URL of the Classical Chinese Wikipedia. There's about as many of them as you'd expect. — Kusma ( talk) 19:26, 6 February 2022 (UTC) reply
  • Delete per nom. Actually, Oxygen-dioxide ( talk · contribs) created several such Chinese redirects that most likely should be deleted. Brandmeister talk 23:10, 6 February 2022 (UTC) reply
    • The other redirects created by that user almost all meet the Original or official names of people, places, institutions, publications or products clause of WP:RLOTE; they are Chinese names of Chinese companies, Chinese railway stations, or Chinese games. The only exception I could find was 伦敦London, which would need a separate discussion. 61.239.39.90 ( talk) 02:12, 7 February 2022 (UTC) reply

Delete or redirect somewhere else, such as native species. The most common definitions of invasive species exclude native species, so this is a misleading redirect. Per common terminology, an invasive species must be introduced in the area it is acting invasively. The term "aggressive" native species is sometimes used, e.g. Solidago altissima in lower Midwest prairie ecosystems. Hyperik talk 18:34, 6 February 2022 (UTC) reply

Oppose as creator – Thank you for notification. I oppose because "Invasive native" is commonly used: [1] [2] [3] [4]Invasive Spices ( talk) 6 February 2022 (UTC)
  • Keep. Scientist hat on for a second, but we do discuss native species as being invasive, especially when they suddenly shift their range. Usually though, we discuss non-natives that are invasive because it's much more common for a niche to open up to them through transport, etc. For natives, that usually is a different barrier to the niche, though geography can sometimes do it too.
Editor hat on instead, and this redirect works. There's no real harm in having it, and it leads to an explanation if someone actually does search for the term. If someone makes a common mistake of thinking invasive only means non-native, this helps there, which is the goal of an encyclopedia. KoA ( talk) 18:51, 7 February 2022 (UTC) reply

Not mentioned at the target, does not appear to be a term of art based on a GScholar search. Delete unless a justification can be provided. signed, Rosguill talk 18:25, 29 January 2022 (UTC) reply

  • Comment: @ Rosguill: I thought this title sounded familiar; last year, the edit history at this title was fractured when an editor moved the edit history that was previously sitting at Specific city to another title. (I have since fixed this issue.) This title was previously nominated at RfD a few years back, but it was not documented at Talk:Specific city until I just fixed the history and placed the template. (Not sure if this changes your stance in the matter for this redirect, but may be worth reviewing this information.) Steel1943 ( talk) 18:45, 29 January 2022 (UTC) reply

This redirect implies that the Romanian spoken in the Timok Valley, commonly known as "Vlach", is a mixed Serbian-Romanian variety, but this is false. See Talk:Vlach language in Serbia#RfC on the status of the article, there is consensus that it represents a Romanian variety. Super Ψ Dro 08:40, 29 January 2022 (UTC) reply

Not notable enough to keep an own article, so it was redirected, and now has been deemed not notable enough at the target article, merged info was removed. Happy editing-- IAm Chaos 06:15, 30 January 2022 (UTC) reply

  • Keep added a mention back to the article. The section blanking seems to have been very premature, as it literally took a single Google News search to find WP:RS confirming that he and his brother operated the business after their father's death. 61.239.39.90 ( talk) 23:32, 6 February 2022 (UTC) reply

Keep as plate tectonics is without question what our readers are looking for. Plate tectonics is also the primary topic for tectonic plates, so a disambiguation at tectonic plates is not appropriate. Oiyarbepsy ( talk) 04:48, 2 February 2022 (UTC) reply

Note that Tectonic plates (lowercase form) was a redirect to Plate tectonics from 2001 until 2017, since which time it has been retargeted 3 times. Mdewman6 ( talk) 02:25, 8 February 2022 (UTC) reply
Note that I do not support a move of Tectonic Plates (film) at this time. I instead believe Tectonic Plates and Tectonic plates should target the same place, and since only the capitalized form Tectonic Plates is part of this discussion, it should be retargeted to where the lowercase Tectonic plates targets, which is List of tectonic plates. Any further changes warrant a different discussion. Mdewman6 ( talk) 03:25, 13 February 2022 (UTC) reply
I was referring to your other options #1 (which is not part of a subsequent RfD). Are you saying you are not considering such an option any more? Jay (talk) 05:01, 13 February 2022 (UTC) reply
I said a requested move discussion could be initiated, separate from the RfD. I don't support a move being the outcome of the RfD. Mdewman6 ( talk) 08:18, 13 February 2022 (UTC) reply
Got it. I have reworded my comment above. Jay (talk) 08:28, 13 February 2022 (UTC) reply
My comment above wasn't meant to advocate the film as primary either. It's simply proof that the title should lead somewhere rather than being deleted. A primary redirect to either Plate tectonics or List of tectonic plates with a hatnote to the film seems best. Certes ( talk) 12:55, 13 February 2022 (UTC) reply
Understood. I was not going by your comment. Jay (talk) 13:09, 13 February 2022 (UTC) reply

Deletion of the redirect. This redirects to Vance McAllister#References, where this person is not mentioned. She is mentioned elsewhere in the article, once. Here's that sole mention: "McAllister's aide Leah Gordon was alleged to have leaked the video to the Ouachita Citizen. Both aides resigned in 2014." Deleting this -- to my mind, utterly unnecessary -- redirect would allow Leah Gordon (photographer) to be moved to plain Leah Gordon. I'd delete the redirect myself without a second thought -- except that McAllister is, or recently was, a US politician, which can be a touchy area. Hoary ( talk) 23:58, 29 January 2022 (UTC) reply

Previous RfDs for this redirect and similar redirects:

The next in my "Măeriște series", there are an unusually high number of redirects for a Jewish cemetery/graveyard (30!). The article does mention there is a cemetery, but gives no additional information about it. If a searcher is using any of these terms, they would have already known that; they would be wanting additional information that Wikipedia does not have. Therefore, "searchers" (using the term in quotes because I am skeptical of the plausibility of all of them) are going to be disappointed by where they end up and will not find the redirects to be useful. -- Tavix ( talk) 00:33, 23 January 2022 (UTC) reply

  • Most (or all) of these were listed in a 2013 RfD (which I just added to this discussion), and it had to be withdrawn because the list was exhaustive. The same may need to be done for the current, and may need to be covered with shorter nominations. I am fine with deleting the titles having "Giurtelecu Şimleului" in them, others need to be looked at individually. Oppose DGG's workaround of keeping the first in the list, and deleting the rest. Redirects are discussed on their own merit, and not on their listing position in the nomination. Jay (talk) 07:14, 13 February 2022 (UTC) reply
  • Delete them all. -- Thesmp ( talk) 11:59, 15 February 2022 (UTC) reply
  • Delete. That's below the granularity for which we provide redirects: as Tavix has pointed out, the only information in the target article is the one that's already present in the titles of each redirect. Maybe the topics are noteworthy and more content could eventually be added, but that shouldn't be taken for granted, as the information in the article is only sourced to an (apparently defunct) database of over 10,000 cemeteries: that doesn't guarantee there'd be much to say about each entry. Also, these redirects crowd out from the search results the actual articles about Jewish cemeteries that are out there (see Category:Jewish cemeteries).
    There are also several sets of redirects that are undesirable for additional reasons: the ones with " jidov" make gratuitious use of an ethnic slur, while Jewish Cemetery from Transylvania and the ones that only mention Giurtelecu are ambiguous: the Giurtelecu of that article isn't the only one with a Jewish cemetery in it, and that's also obviously not the only one in Transylvania. – Uanfala (talk) 02:10, 25 February 2022 (UTC) reply
