LM2F
I see no known uses of this abbreviation for the target via a Google search. LMTF appears to be the established shortcut for the band. StarcheerspeaksnewslostwarsTalk to me 20:08, 11 August 2020 (UTC)
- Keep - Keep per WP:CHEAP, and "2" sounds like "to". --Jax 0677 (talk) 20:15, 11 August 2020 (UTC)
- Delete per nominator's opening sentence: "

Firetruck distance
- Firetruck distance → Taxicab geometry (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: //delete ]
"Taxicab geometry" does not mention about a firetruck or a firetruck distance path. Seventyfiveyears at 19:15, 11 August 2020 (UTC)
Liquidation of the United States
- Liquidation of the United States → Dissolution of the United States (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: //delete ]
Maybe I'm wrong on this, but I've always been under the impression that liquidation and dissolution are not exactly synonyms. Hog Farm Bacon 18:50, 11 August 2020 (UTC)
Imola Grand Prix
- Imola Grand Prix → 2020 Formula One World Championship (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: //delete ]
There have been Imola Grand Prix (this is a redirect from incorrect name). The 1963 Imola Grand Prix for example which was apparently the 4th Imola Grand Prix. This redirect is therefore misleading. Recommending deletion.
SSSB (talk) 11:56, 25 July 2020 (UTC)
- I'm not too concerned, I created the redirect as we did for Styrian GP → 2020 Styrian GP because the table on the 2020 season article had that as the name. I don't think it's misleading per se because it is a possible search term for the Grand Prix, like the Steiermark GP, but I can understand why it isn't suitable.
5225C (talk • contributions) 12:24, 25 July 2020 (UTC)- I say its misleading because it implies that this is the only Imola Grand Prix (or the only Grand Prix which can be referred to as such, correctly or incorrectly) which is simply untrue.
SSSB (talk) 12:27, 25 July 2020 (UTC)- I see your point. I would then support retargeting it to either List of Grand Prix held at Autodromo Internazionale Enzo e Dino Ferrari as suggested by Thryduulf or simply redirecting to Autodromo Internazionale Enzo e Dino Ferrari as suggested by Narky Blert. Preferably the former as I've now seen the redirect linked to from some of the previous Imola races.

- Set index. This should be a set index at a title something like List of Grand Prix held at Autodromo Internazionale Enzo e Dino Ferrari (the name of the racing circuit at Imola), given that in addition to the 1963 race mentioned above it hosted the 1980 Italian Grand Prix, the San Marino Grand Prix from 1981-2006 and in 2020 the Emilia Romagna Grand Prix. There might also be non-Formula 1 races that have held the title Grand Prix. Thryduulf (talk) 12:51, 25 July 2020 (UTC)
- Delete. This is not a plausible search term. I have not seen this being used in reliable sources at all. We haven‘t used this the last time a race took place there either. As pointed out Imola Grand Prix is the name of a series of events that took place in the fifties and sixties.Tvx1 14:55, 25 July 2020 (UTC)
- Retarget to Autodromo Internazionale Enzo e Dino Ferrari, aka Imola in motor-racing circles. There's info in that article about both the San Marino and the Italisn Grands Prix which have been held there. Narky Blert (talk) 15:37, 25 July 2020 (UTC)
- Disambiguate/Setindexify the San Marino Grand Prix was held at Imola (and might be a primary topic for "Imola Grand Prix"). There's the City of Imola motorcycle Grand Prix (aka 'Imola GP'); And there's the prior 1963 and future 2020 GPs, and the 1980 Italian GP; making a four (or more) item list -- 70.51.44.93 (talk) 01:26, 27 July 2020 (UTC)
- I dispute the fact that the primary topic of Imola Grand Prix is San Marino Grand Prix as it was never known as that and I have never seen a source which calls it that.
SSSB (talk) 07:31, 27 July 2020 (UTC)

Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, -- Tavix (talk) 15:45, 2 August 2020 (UTC)
- Retarget to Autodromo Internazionale Enzo e Dino Ferrari, which has the most content and context on the subject. -- Tavix (talk) 01:19, 10 August 2020 (UTC)
- Delete would be my first preference, otherwise retarget to Autodromo Internazionale Enzo e Dino Ferrari. No obvious primary target since the only race actually called the Imola Grand Prix lacks a "main" article, but that's why I prefer deletion so that such an article might be created.

Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Steel1943 (talk) 17:19, 11 August 2020 (UTC)
- Delete as the discussion above shows, it's completely ambiguous and there isn't a correct target to repoint it to. Joseph2302 (talk) 19:44, 11 August 2020 (UTC)
"Riverside Community Hospital"
- "Riverside Community Hospital" → HCA Healthcare (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: //delete ]
- Riverside Community Hospital → HCA Healthcare (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: //delete ]
Not mentioned at the target (and likely is the name of multiple hospitals, given how common the city name Riverside is. Delete unless a sourced mention can be added. signed, Rosguill talk 16:18, 11 August 2020 (UTC)
- Delete per nom. Redirect was made last month and there's no explanation of the redirect. I think regardless of source, your argument of it applying to multiple hospitals would be valid. I thought this was about a hospital in Florida. – The Grid (talk) 19:14, 11 August 2020 (UTC)
Jain Baniya
- Jain Baniya → Jain communities (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: //delete ]
Not mentioned at the target: searching on Google Scholar and internally on Wikipedia suggests that this is the name of a specific caste category, but we don't have any information about it beyond labeling a few individuals as such. It was previously created as an unsourced 1-sentence stub, which hardly seems appropriate to revert back to, and it's not clear from search results that this is notable. I would suggest deletion in the absence of a better solution. signed, Rosguill talk 16:16, 11 August 2020 (UTC)
Ploo
Not mentioned at target article. Redirect created in 2013 as an "upcoming production", but doesn't look like Ploo even exists Joseph2302 (talk) 15:59, 11 August 2020 (UTC)
Kienspan
Seems like a case of WP:RLOTE, this variety of wood is found all over the world; searching Google Scholar for this term only returned German results, suggesting that it's not used as a loanword in English. signed, Rosguill talk 15:43, 11 August 2020 (UTC)
- Used in one of Neal Stephenson's books, which are written in English. MarkMLl (talk) 20:50, 11 August 2020 (UTC)
Wikipedia:BOTTOMUP
- Wikipedia:BOTTOMUP → Wikipedia:Talk page guidelines#WP:BOTTOMPOST (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: //delete ]
Confusing. The guideline says to put new topics at the bottom of the page, which means that in chronological order of OP they appear from the top down—so this is the exact opposite of what the guideline says. YorkshireLad ✿ (talk) 14:12, 11 August 2020 (UTC)
- Delete Other than this RfD, and pages carrying notices about this RfD, its only inward link is at User talk:Redrose64#Misapplying WP:BOTTOMUP. At the time that I made this edit the redir didn't exist (hence my comment) and so it showed as a redlink; the redirect seems to have been created about 55 minutes later by Joseph2302 (talk · contribs), who was not involved in that discussion and who has no recent edits to Wikipedia talk:Verifiability, so it's unclear what their motivation was. --Redrose64 🌹 (talk) 16:35, 11 August 2020 (UTC)
Zahed Haseeb
- Zahed Haseeb → Kareem Abdul-Jabbar (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: //delete ]
No mention at the target article. Not clear how they would be connected. —Bagumba (talk) 09:22, 11 August 2020 (UTC)
- Delete, not mentioned anywhere in Wikipedia, so there is no possible target for this redirect. Not a very active user (talk) 13:27, 11 August 2020 (UTC)
- Delete. Not mentioned at target, and a Google search finds no connection with the target. Hog Farm Bacon 14:25, 11 August 2020 (UTC)
Straight virginity
- Straight virginity → Lesbian#Sexuality and lesbian identity (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: //delete ]
Could also refer to heterosexuals who are virgins. Hog Farm Bacon 05:19, 11 August 2020 (UTC)
- I don't get the point for creating this discussion. "Straight virginity" is not found in the Lesbian article. Pyxis Solitary (yak). L not Q. 09:53, 11 August 2020 (UTC)
- Delete as is not at target. Rubbish computer (Talk: Contribs) 10:51, 11 August 2020 (UTC)
Heterosexual virginity
- Heterosexual virginity → Lesbian#Sexuality and lesbian identity (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: //delete ]
This could also refer to heterosexuals who are virgins, so this probably shouldn't be specifically targeted to just the lesbian page. Hog Farm Bacon 05:18, 11 August 2020 (UTC)
- "Heterosexual virginity" (same as with "Straight virginity") does not appear in the Lesbian article. Pyxis Solitary (yak). L not Q. 09:56, 11 August 2020 (UTC)
- Delete as is not at target. Rubbish computer (Talk: Contribs) 10:51, 11 August 2020 (UTC)
Deep Stroker II
Not mentioned in target article, presumably a model name for a minor product. Hog Farm Bacon 05:15, 11 August 2020 (UTC)
RoboSuck
Not mentioned in target article. I'm assuming this is a product, but I don't really want to have this in my browser history to confirm that. Hog Farm Bacon 05:14, 11 August 2020 (UTC)
The Animal Genocidists
- The Animal Genocidists → People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: //delete ]
Not mentioned in target article. A Google search mostly brings up results for some video game in-game achievement. Hog Farm Bacon 05:11, 11 August 2020 (UTC)
- Delete: A google search for
"Animal Genocidist"
turns up only one result, a joke about liking chocolate milk as a kid. Not a term. Delete. Normal Op (talk) 06:10, 11 August 2020 (UTC) - Delete: Reads made up and pointy to an extreme.Slatersteven (talk) 10:09, 11 August 2020 (UTC)
- Delete Completely invented term. Rubbish computer (Talk: Contribs) 10:52, 11 August 2020 (UTC)
Friut
This is an unlikely misspelling; only 12 hits in the last month. Ghinga7 (talk) 04:22, 11 August 2020 (UTC)
- Keep, the U and I keys are right next to each other on a QWERTY keyboard, and someone might easily mix them up. While it may get fewer hits compared to its target, it still gets a good amount of pageviews per year, like over a thousand since July 2015. Regards, SONIC678 04:52, 11 August 2020 (UTC)
- Keep as a plausible misspelling. Rubbish computer (Talk: Contribs) 10:53, 11 August 2020 (UTC)

- The result of the discussion was speedy close. I'm just going to do what I stated in my comment since this attribution issue needs to be resolved prior to any action to this redirect. (non-admin closure) Steel1943 (talk) 21:01, 11 August 2020 (UTC)
- Draft:Typhoon Kathleen → Typhoon Kathleen (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: //delete ]
This is a redirect from draft to mainspace, then why it should be kept? SMB99thx Email! 01:29, 11 August 2020 (UTC)
- Comment From my understanding, the redirect from draft is maintained so that the history of the article's creation and related edits are maintained. – The Grid (talk) 02:08, 11 August 2020 (UTC)
- Speedy close. There was a cut-and-paste move performed in the two following edits: 1 2. This needs to be fixed per WP:CWW/WP:A requirements, so I'm going to tag the proper pages now per WP:HISTMERGE instructions. Steel1943 (talk) 20:56, 11 August 2020 (UTC)

STFU n00b!
- STFU n00b! → Internet slang (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: //delete ]
The article "Internet slang" does not mention anything about the "STFU noob" slang. Seventyfiveyears at 01:44, 11 August 2020 (UTC)
- Delete per WP:XY, could equally point to either STFU (expletive) or n00b. Not a very active user (talk) 12:59, 11 August 2020 (UTC)
