'''Question''' - is the term "union busting" used globally, or is it primarily North American with the rest of the world using a different word or phrase? I get the nagging feeling that moving things around without answering this question would matters worse for Wikipedia, not better.

Revision as of 03:23, 27 January 2009
January 24
This is a list of redirects that have been proposed for deletion or other action on January 24, 2009
Meiji 3 → 1870
Related to the earlier discussion of Heisei 20. Meiji 3 is the name of a year in the Japanese calendar. However, the Japanese calendar is only equivalent to the Gregorian beginning in 1873 (Meiji 6); prior to that reform, a purely lunar calendar was used. Consequently, this redirect is not strictly correct, though it's in the right vicinity. Redirecting to Japanese calendar, which at least explains what this is, would also not be useful, because it contains essentially no information on the year in question. It is probably best to delete it. — Gavia immer (talk) 21:03, 24 January 2009 (UTC)
- Comment, not sure about deletion. While not technically correct, it does seem like a somewhat plausible search term. The article Meiji period has a chart at the bottom of the page correlating Meiji years to western calendar years, which correlates 1870 to Meiji 3. This raises the question: Out of the 45 years of the Meiji period, why does only Meiji 3 have such a redirect? There are no incoming links. Perhaps there was one at one time and it was redirected. •••Life of Riley (talk) 22:31, 24 January 2009 (UTC)
- I'm not entirely certain why this specific redirect was created, especially in light of the lack of other Meiji redirects. I've asked the redirect creator to comment here if he wishes. I suppose it might be reasonable to redirect this to Meiji period, but that chart is currently the only mention of Meiji 3 in the whole article. — Gavia immer (talk) 03:25, 25 January 2009 (UTC)
- Retarget to Meiji period as that explains what the term is. PaulJones (talk) 12:33, 25 January 2009 (UTC)
- Agree with PaulJones above. Retarget to Meiji period. I found seven references to the exact phrase "Meiji 3" in Wikipedia, so it's possible someone may search for that phrase. Meiji period would be a more meaningful redirect than 1870. •••Life of Riley (talk) 22:08, 25 January 2009 (UTC)
Yo Dawg → Xzibit
Incorrect redirect. WildlifeAnalysis (talk · contribs) wrote on Talk:Yo Dawg that "Redirecting this to his page does not explain the "yo dawg" phenomenon, since it is not mentioned on his page. Either add it to his page or put that content here. A redirect is, until then, unqualified." Cunard (talk) 20:43, 24 January 2009 (UTC)
- Keep, possibly change target to Pimp My Ride. Apparently "Yo dawg" has become something of an internet meme among admirers of Xzibit and the show Pimp My Ride. A Google search for "xzibit yo dawg" turned up 24,000+ hits, of which the first five pages (50 links) all appeared to be related to this saying by Xzibit. It seems that at the end of a show on Pimp My Ride, Xzibit often says something like "Yo dawg, I heard you like xxx..." For an explanation, see [1] and [2]. I agree with Cunard that someone ought to write this up on the Xzibit page or the Pimp My Ride page. •••Life of Riley (talk) 21:28, 24 January 2009 (UTC)
- Dabify as there is at least one additional valid target - Randy Jackson, who uses this greeting often on the television show American Idol to the point of making it his greeting. There may be other people who prominently and repeatedly use this phrase. B.Wind (talk) 04:05, 25 January 2009 (UTC)
- Can we come up with any citations for this? Maybe he originated the phrase and Xzibit spread it around. •••Life of Riley (talk) 22:12, 25 January 2009 (UTC)
- Limiting myself to reliable sources, how about [3] to start? Actually, some not-so-reliable sources are referring to this as an Internet meme (I'm not sure about that), but he does say it at least once in every episode of Anerican Idol. Perhaps someone with the DVD set can verify it and cite it. (I haven't had the time to check for the "Yo, dog" variation, unfortunately). B.Wind (talk) 03:22, 26 January 2009 (UTC)
- Can we come up with any citations for this? Maybe he originated the phrase and Xzibit spread it around. •••Life of Riley (talk) 22:12, 25 January 2009 (UTC)
Kingfot → K
Redirect seems to be meaningless, reason for its creation is unclear. —Snigbrook 14:40, 24 January 2009 (UTC)
- Delete. Nonsensical entry. A search for kingfot on Google on turns up nothing meaningful. It seems to be someone's e-mail user name in Singapore. The author also seems be from Singapore, judging by his contributions. •••Life of Riley (talk) 20:22, 24 January 2009 (UTC)
Mujeh se → G
The article G was moved to Mujeh se in 2006, and the move was reverted but the redirect was not deleted – I don't know if the redirect means anything or it it was just created as a result of vandalism. —Snigbrook 14:36, 24 January 2009 (UTC)
- Delete. Nonsensical entry. Judging from a Google search mujeh se seems to be a word or phrase in an eastern language, possibly Hindi or Urdu, but I was not able to figure out what it means. •••Life of Riley (talk) 20:32, 24 January 2009 (UTC)
- The move was the sole constribution of Jamshaha (talk · contribs) to Wikipedia, and had no edit summary. It was page move vandalism, and this is speedily deletable as such. ☺ Uncle G (talk) 03:06, 25 January 2009 (UTC)
History of union busting → History of union busting in the United States
PMI-SP → Rock n Roll Soldiers
President's_day_(Honorverse) → Hereditary_President#President.27s_day
deletion
An utterly non-notable subject in a fictional universe. Please note that the target is also templated for non-notability and deletion.Debresser (talk) 20:17, 24 January 2009 (UTC)
- weak delete if the target remains, and delete if the target goes. As there does not appear to be a disambiguation page for president's day, that being a redirect to Washington's brithday, then the whole expression seems an unlikely term to be entered by a user. PaulJones (talk) 12:47, 25 January 2009 (UTC)
- Note: should the target be deleted, CSD G8 would apply and this would be speedily deleted unless an editor retargets it beforehand. 147.70.242.54 (talk) 19:41, 26 January 2009 (UTC)
Harris Assassination → Republic_of_Haven
deletion
A not-notable event in a fictional universe. Furthermore, the title of the redirect doesn't include the word "Honorverse" which might lead to believe the redirect is to a real-life event. Please also notice that the target article didn't even mention the whole thing till I added one sentence about it. Debresser (talk) 20:23, 24 January 2009 (UTC)
- weak keep as the target article now mentions the event being redirected... PaulJones (talk) 12:39, 25 January 2009 (UTC)
There is no way this one line will ever be worthy of its own article, and making a redirect for every sentence in an article doesn't sound like a good idea to me. The event is worth a short mention in the process of the whole article, but not in itself. Debresser (talk) 19:04, 25 January 2009 (UTC)
- That's why it's a redirect and not a stub. It's also discussed in at least two of the books of the series, but this seems the appropriate way to target the redirect: to the concept of the fictional government of the series (the related articles are in desperate need of de-linking, but that's a different issue), but since the two books both refer to the "Harris assassination", and it's mentioned in a little detail in the current target, keep. Regarding the lack of a disambiguation: are there other entities called "Republic of Haven"? I could find none in Wikipedia; so disambiguation is not needed at present. 147.70.242.54 (talk) 19:38, 26 January 2009 (UTC)
