No longer mentioned in target article after consensus on its talk page. The redirect text was previously merged in to the Netball page, so I'm not quite sure what should be done with the page history here (perhaps moving it to a talk subpage of the netball article?). The page was made as part of a student project by Rachm97 (see this discussion). An unmerge might be possible but as I said at the netball talk page, there doesn't seem to be much good data out there on this subject. Graham 87 04:27, 4 August 2023 (UTC) reply

Delete as the content is very limited and dated. The articles compared above on injuries in cricket, tennis, and volleyball are all of greatly superior quality to this. Violetine ( talk) 03:18, 23 August 2023 (UTC) reply
The "limited and dated" argument is essentially circular. It happened because the content was condensed to fit into the article on Netball. Compare it to the much larger article that existed before then. There was no point in members trying to update it over time, because that would have be WP:UNDUE in the article on Netball. But if it had stayed as an independent article, it would have been practical to update it from time to time.-- Toddy1 (talk) 08:08, 23 August 2023 (UTC) reply

Doubt this redirect pointing to Home helps anyone; if you're searching this term, you're going to want something more specific than just the article on homes. Searching within Wikipedia pulls up some potential targets, but most seem to use different capitalization (there's a few creative works titled Home Away from Home); a DAB page may be an option, though none of these works titled Home Away from Home have their own article. wikt:home away from home also exists, and might be a potential target, or it can be included on a DAB.

Unlikely search terms. Plurals, strange punctuation, or missing spaces where the normal or singular form already exists as a redirect.. Lithopsian ( talk) 13:09, 21 September 2023 (UTC) reply

It might be worth pointing out that there are already more redirects than you can shake a stick at for this topic (note that this query will probably only show you the ones not listed here as long as they are tagged). Nobody is in any danger of not finding at and the ones I listed here are just redundant. Lithopsian ( talk) 13:53, 22 September 2023 (UTC) reply
Keep most/Trainwreck. I agree the last two are almost definitely implausible, and the ones ending with a hyphenation like "-meter" or "-gauge" and similar are likely to be so as well; however, most of these (particularly the bunch until "Afr monitors") in fact looks quite helpful to me. (I don't see how "plurals" is reason for deletion.) 1234qwer 1234qwer 4 16:55, 21 September 2023 (UTC) reply

Looks like a historical R from move - the target page was only at this title for a few minutes it seems.

Momentarily disregarding this fact, re @ Scope creep:, what is your RfD rationale for this nomination? A redirect going from draft to mainspace is not a reason to delete, nor are mistakes necessarily. Utopes ( talk / cont) 19:20, 21 September 2023 (UTC) reply
I had a conversation with @ SilverMatsu: this morning, who seemed to think they weren't necessary, perhaps because the articles will never be created? I'll let the editor continue. Hopefully he can explain in more detail. scope_creep Talk 20:24, 21 September 2023 (UTC) reply
  • Comment The reason why I suggested delete the redirect is R#D10. I am suggesting to delete the Draft:Semiabelian group, not the Semiabelian group. I think Draft:Semiabelian group is the good place to create a draft, when someone finds a notion called Semiabelian group, which is different from Semiabelian variety (scheme) and Semiabelian group (Galois theory) and who wants to start a draft. Furthermore, I think that the title "Semiabelian group" is too ambiguous. This is because that article was 1 past decline with the comment Submission is about a topic not yet shown to meet general notability guidelines. I suspect the reviewer was unable to find the reference because the title was too ambiguous. Also, regarding "Semiabelian group (Redirect)", I think it is better to change the redirect to a Dab, and I don't think it's necessary to create a draft when creating a Dab. -- SilverMatsu ( talk) 02:39, 22 September 2023 (UTC) reply
@ Silvermatsu: What do you say about Draft:Semiabelian groups? scope_creep Talk 11:20, 22 September 2023 (UTC) reply
If Draft:Semiabelian groups is a redirect to the main space, I think it will confuse AfC reviewers when someone creates a new draft, so I also suggest delete the Draft:Semiabelian groups. -- SilverMatsu ( talk) 12:20, 22 September 2023 (UTC) reply
Yes, that's what I want. But if Dab pages are not needed, I will withdraw this proposal, so I think we should first discuss whether we need a Dab page or not. I believe a Dab page is needed. For example, the top in search result on Google Scholar is a paper on "Semiabelian group schemes". See https://scholar.google.com/scholar?q=%22Semiabelian+group%22.

Not seeing any relevant results for this term relating to the Moon on a very quick surface level search. It's also somewhat ambiguous with Luna 10, and possibly more in Luna programme. Skarmory (talk • contribs) 07:30, 21 September 2023 (UTC) reply

In English, there is no ambiguity between "Satellite Luna" (a natural satellite of Terra) versus "Luna satellite" (a satellite of the Luna Program) or "Luna satellite" (an artificial or natural satellite of Satellite Luna). The typecase is different when referring to a vessel and a specific satellite would be referred to as "Satellite Luna 10", "satellite Luna 10", or "Luna 10 satellite". Nicole Sharp ( talk) 17:20, 21 September 2023 (UTC) reply
Do we expect the casual reader to be more likely to search up "Satellite Luna" looking for a satellite named Luna, or the moon of Earth which has the much more likely search term of just "Moon"? They may have forgotten the number of the human-made satellite. I just don't see how redirecting this unlikely search term to Moon is more helpful for readers who likely aren't intimately familiar with more scientific terms about moons and Earth's moon. If these were Natural Satellite Luna or Luna (natural satellite), I don't think there would be an issue (hence why the latter wasn't nominated); I'm also pretty neutral about the ones starting with Terran, as they're unambiguous, even if they're unlikely search terms. Skarmory (talk • contribs) 19:26, 21 September 2023 (UTC) reply
See my comment below regarding conflations between satellite names. When I am searching Wikipedia for a satellite, I always search for the name "Satellite X" because many satellite names will link to unrelated pages due to conflations with mythological beings or other astronomical bodies (e.g. "Minor Planet Europa" versus "Satellite Europa"). When I search for a page, I want to always and consistently arrive on the correct desired result the first time. Naming and searching for all satellites as "Satellite X" is the only way to do this. The "casual reader" who is aware that there exists more than one moon and that there exists more than one Luna is not going to search for either "moon" ("Moon") or "Luna" and will instead search for a term that they think will give them the correct result, such as "Earth's Moon" or "Satellite Luna". Nicole Sharp ( talk) 04:41, 23 September 2023 (UTC) reply
Probably not relevant here, but it should also be pointed out that Terra sometimes has more than one moon (natural satellite), though additional natural satellites of Terra are typically only for very short periods of time as temporarily captured quasisatellites in unstable orbits, so "Earth's moon" and "Earth's Moon" are not synonymous. Nicole Sharp ( talk) 05:23, 23 September 2023 (UTC) reply
Assuming that the "casual reader" has at least a high-school understanding of science, they should be aware that the Solar System has many moons so they are unlikely to search for "moon" ("Moon") when they are really searching for Satellite Luna (the moon Luna) instead. The name "Luna" is commonly known in English through familiar terms such as "Lunar eclipse" and the idea that moons are satellites should be covered with a grade-school science education. Nicole Sharp ( talk) 04:54, 23 September 2023 (UTC) reply
I don't know Wikipedia's policies on allowing misspellings for redirects, but the idea that a correctly spelled redirect name could be mistaken for a misspelled name seems like it could apply to a large number of redirects (is "USA" a misspelling of "USO"?). The best policy in either case should be to keep the redirect to the most relevant page, or to a disambiguation page, and not to delete the redirect because it could be confused with a misspelling of another less relevant term. Nicole Sharp ( talk) 04:54, 23 September 2023 (UTC) reply
Leaning keep, unambiguous and not excessively unlikely search terms. Edward-Woodrowtalk 20:25, 21 September 2023 (UTC) reply

Skarmory's nomination above applies to Satellite Luna. I added Terran Moon Luna later, but it has a similar case. Certes ( talk) 11:26, 21 September 2023 (UTC) reply

"Terran Moon Luna" should preferably be written as "Terran moon Luna", "moon Luna", "Terran Moon", or "Terran moon" but I would consider this an acceptable alternative spelling. Nicole Sharp ( talk) 17:20, 21 September 2023 (UTC) reply

Moon § Names and etymology mentions the occasional scientific use of the name Luna to distinguish from other moons, as well as sci-fi and poetic use. There are also plenty of discussions as to the importance of the name in the talk page archives. That said, I don't see these specific redirects being plausible search or link terms, and would support deleting both. Rosbif73 ( talk) 12:54, 21 September 2023 (UTC) reply

"Luna" and "Terra" are the scientific names for "Moon" and "Earth" since classical astronomical objects in the Solar System have Latinate names.  Which names should be used is hotly debated (for example, NASA publications often say "Moon" instead of "Luna") but the common usage of both names is well-established. Nicole Sharp ( talk) 17:20, 21 September 2023 (UTC) reply

Agree with User:Rosbif73. The idea that someone would search for either of these when trying to find the very obvious Moon is highly implausible. - Special-T ( talk) 14:27, 21 September 2023 (UTC) reply

Comment: I bundled Luna (satellite) and Terran Satellite Luna with this nom, as they run into the same issues as Satellite Luna and Terran Moon Luna respectively. Skarmory (talk • contribs) 16:51, 21 September 2023 (UTC) reply

All satellites (e.g. "Luna" or "Europa") need a redirect page with name "Satellite X" (e.g. "Satellite Luna" or "Satellite Europa") because there exists a conflation between Satellite Europa and Minor Planet Europa.  Otherwise links to pages for satellites will not be consistently named. Nicole Sharp ( talk) 17:20, 21 September 2023 (UTC) reply

We usually disambiguate by qualifier, e.g. Europa (moon) vs. Europa (minor planet). Is there a minor planet Luna? The one named after a person called Luna is called 336465 Deluna, probably to avoid confusion with Earth's moon. Certes ( talk) 18:20, 21 September 2023 (UTC) reply
I very much dislike page names that have parentheses and whenever possible I always create redirects without parentheses whenever I see a page name that has parentheses. Nicole Sharp ( talk) 05:02, 23 September 2023 (UTC) reply
— I don't think there are any IAU rules against someone discovering a new minor planet of the Inner Solar System and naming it "Luna" (there already exist a few conflations between satellites and minor planets, notably "Europa"). But if the minor planet also happens to be an Earth-crossing asteroid or a Terran quasisatellite then it could conceivably be captured into Terran orbit, in which case there would be two Satellite Lunas, though likely only for a very brief time. But this would be very confusing and I am guessing the IAU might make a new rule to prevent that from happening. Nicole Sharp ( talk) 05:48, 23 September 2023 (UTC) reply
Consistency concerns do not apply to redirects, so the argument about Satellite X redirects is basically just WP:OTHERSTUFF. Rosbif73 ( talk) 19:26, 21 September 2023 (UTC) reply

All of these redirects should be kept as they are acceptable alternative spellings, regardless of actual usage. Nicole Sharp ( talk) 17:24, 21 September 2023 (UTC) reply

Previously RfD'd but trainwrecked without discussion of that entry. Biden is surely the most notable Joe to be a president, but he isn't the only one. Joe Shirley Jr. was the longest-serving president of the Navajo Nation, a sovereign entity with 165,000 citizens; unlike Biden, his first name actually is just Joe. Several Josephs, some of whom may be known as Joe, have been presidents as well: Kasa-Vubu and Kabila (Congo); Estrada (Phillipines); Jenkins Roberts and James Cheeseman (Liberia); Urusemal (Micronesia); Lamothe, Davilmar Théodore, and Nemours Pierre-Louis (Haiti); Saidu Momoh (Sierra Leone); Lagu and James Tombura (Southern Sudan); and Allison (Orange Free State). Given Biden's primacy, this redirect might be reasonable if he were frequently referred to mononymously, but he is not, so this should be deleted. -- Tamzin[ cetacean needed (she|they|xe) 04:27, 21 September 2023 (UTC) reply

Per WP:SSRT, most words shouldn't get a redirect to Wiktionary.

I redirected it to Lumpenproletariat instead, but was reverted. Fram ( talk) 09:33, 12 September 2023 (UTC) reply

  • Retarget to Lumpen, a disambiguation page which also includes a Wiktionary link. The combination of German lumpen with the English suffix -ism is a bit nonsensical, and Wiktionary is not a reliable source besides not actually being helpful here. Ivanvector ( Talk/ Edits) 16:44, 12 September 2023 (UTC) reply
  • The term definitely exists; I don't really know what to do with the redirect, though. Lumpen may be the best option, but there's only maybe one or two potential targets on that page, and even then I'm not sure they're great, but it does at least have the wiktionary link. Lumpenproletariat might be an okay target as well, but I don't really know what lumpenism is intended to mean, so I can't say for sure; it is listed on the DAB, though.

  • Retarget to 16S. Sources used in MT-RNR2 include the phrasing "16S rRNA gene", which seems close enough to this redirect title to prefer disambiguation here and for the new redirects proposed in the nom. — siro χ o 06:43, 21 September 2023 (UTC) reply
  • Comment There is a directly related discussion occurring at Talk:16S_rRNA#Requested_move_14_September_2023. If the current dab page at 16S rRNA is kept as is, and the consensus here is for this to target a disambiguation page, it should be retargeted there. But as I argued in the RM, the prokaryotic gene is in my mind the clear primary topic (if it isn't, we may need to consider the article titles of two gene topics) and we just need a hatnote to the mitochondiral version. Mdewman6 ( talk) 18:37, 21 September 2023 (UTC) reply
  • Agree with Mdewman6 that the 16S rRNA set index is a better target than 16S. The RM discussion has not seen progress since the last two weeks. Jay 💬 08:25, 28 September 2023 (UTC) reply
  • Support the proposed retarget to 16S ribosomal RNA. A hatnote should be added to that article referring the the 16S mitochondrial rRNA which satisfies any needed disambiguation. Other forms of 16S rRNA are linked in the template at the end of the article (though they do not seem to have any articles associated with them). ― Syn path 21:43, 28 September 2023 (UTC) reply
