Wo Long: Final Dynasty
- Wo Long: Final Dynasty → Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: //delete ]
Delete. "Final" is a typo or accidental misprint of "Fallen". Not mentioned in the article. Not commonly occurring typo per Google search results. Mika1h (talk) 11:17, 3 March 2023 (UTC)
- Delete Not a believable search term. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 13:00, 3 March 2023 (UTC)
- Comment - I'd be interest in see what Czar, it's creator, has to say on it. He's not the type of editor to make stuff up. (Though it is possible it's just an "oops" too - I have no idea.) Sergecross73 msg me 16:38, 3 March 2023 (UTC)
- Thanks for the ping. It was direct from the press but looks like it's been mostly corrected since as a typo. I don't think it would be a big deal to delete or keep either way. czar 17:58, 3 March 2023 (UTC)
- Thank you for that! Sergecross73 msg me 18:58, 3 March 2023 (UTC)
- Thanks for the ping. It was direct from the press but looks like it's been mostly corrected since as a typo. I don't think it would be a big deal to delete or keep either way. czar 17:58, 3 March 2023 (UTC)
- Keep as a plausible misspelling, per sources linked by Czar. Sergecross73 msg me 18:58, 3 March 2023 (UTC)
- Delete per Czar. We consistently underestimate the power of Wikipedia's contextual search bar. You can't see it right now because "Final Dynasty" still exists but when it's deleted, 'WL: Final Dynasty' will still autocomplete into the correct title by the proximity search feature. No need to leave all of these implausible alternatives lying around. Axem Titanium (talk) 21:48, 3 March 2023 (UTC)
- Keep: It's plausible based on the source from Czar. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Hey man im josh (talk • contribs) 04:36, 4 March 2023 (UTC)

2027FIBA Basketball World Cup
- 2027FIBA Basketball World Cup → FIBA Basketball World Cup (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: //delete ]
Wikipedia is not an indiscriminate collection of unverifiable information. This doesn't seem a plausible redirect, either. Justarandomamerican (talk) Have a good day! 18:02, 11 March 2023 (UTC)
- Delete because of the typo. However, as explained in the other RfD below, there's no problem with WP:CRYSTAL or WP:INDISCRIMINATE if all we have is a redirect. Pichpich (talk) 19:52, 11 March 2023 (UTC)
Spirule
- Spirule → Root locus (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: //delete ]
There is no target page where the topic is defined, except for an external link to an obscure programming language developed by a company of this name. In any case, very weakly related to the present target. D.Lazard (talk) 16:57, 11 March 2023 (UTC)
- Keep: The original claim is false: the topic was defined at the target of the redirect and the relationship could not be more direct. Only the sourcing was poor, which is now fixed, with citations to numerous textbooks explaining how to use the device. That's a 1948 spiral slide ruler invented by the very creator of the whole Root locus analysis technique. The original proposer could have done a quick search in Google Books before pushing the nuclear button. fgnievinski (talk) 00:52, 12 March 2023 (UTC)

- Foster and Partners → Norman Foster, Baron Foster of Thames Bank (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: //delete ]
Wikipedia's entry for Norman Foster, Baron Foster of Thames Bank already covers this topic in more depth than this promotional, PR-whitewashed company page. As far as I can see there isn't enough scope to turn this subject into a decent page distinct from the BLP about its founder and chief. They are essentially, two sides of the same coin. I tried to merge the pages, but it was too hard. The Bicycle of Dreams (talk) 16:53, 11 March 2023 (UTC)
- Oppose. If the article's data is correct, the firm has 1800 employees all over the world including 140 partners. It's also the largest architecture firm in the UK. The firm has an established notability that goes beyond its association with Norman Foster. Pichpich (talk) 18:23, 11 March 2023 (UTC)

Nintendo DS & DSi Browser
- Nintendo DS & DSi Browser → Nintendo DS Browser (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: //delete ]
Delete - I have since refactored the page to be about the DS browser only, as it originally was, since that is the only individually notable one. Information about the DSi browser is on a different page, making this redirect out of scope and unnecessary. The original move to this title was ill-conceived by a now-banned user. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 05:05, 21 February 2023 (UTC)
- Comment - the article had this title for nearly 13 years. I'm not sure I agree with the nominator that the "rationale for original move was faulty and against Wikipedia policy", and I don't see any issue discussing both in one article, but if the content is to stay removed then unless a better target exists this should be delete. A7V2 (talk) 00:56, 22 February 2023 (UTC)
- To better explain, the article was moved because "the browser works on DS and DSi". It was not actually meant to be about the DSi browser proper. This is not normal policy, because we go by the WP:COMMONNAME, which is "Nintendo DS Browser" for this particular piece of software. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 03:38, 22 February 2023 (UTC)

- Keep as {{R from move}} – The article had this name for 13 years as pointed out, and the topic is notable enough to expect that there would be external links that would get broken by the redirect being removed. WP:RFD#K4 applies. Randi Moth (talk) 17:29, 11 March 2023 (UTC)
- Delete per nom, per WP:XY, and since the nominated redirect is not a {{R with history}}. The redirect Nintendo DSi Browser guides readers to where information about the "Nintendo DSi Browser" is located. Steel1943 (talk) 19:06, 13 March 2023 (UTC)
- Keep. The redirect has averaged over 2400 pageviews per day since the move. Deleting it would be harmful. - Eureka Lott 01:29, 16 March 2023 (UTC)
- Keep per K4. EurekaLott has it right above, apart from that the stats link is faulty – this redirect averages a still extremely sizeable 30 a day. J947 † edits 06:20, 16 March 2023 (UTC)
- Whoops! Thanks for catching that! - Eureka Lott 16:39, 16 March 2023 (UTC)
- Keep: Per WP:RFD#K4. Also, WP:XY doesn’t apply to this redirect since the DSi browser is mentioned in the lead. Pizzaplayer219TalkContribs 18:28, 17 March 2023 (UTC)
Warrington Gillette
- Warrington Gillette → Friday the 13th Part 2 (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: //delete ]
Redirect that was deleted in 2018 per Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion/Log/2018 December 20, but then got recreated in 2020 to the exact same target. It remains inappropriate, however, for an actor's name to redirect to just one specific film he was in -- Friday the 13th Part 2 was not the only acting credit Warrington Gillette ever had, so it's not appropriate to privilege that one specific film over any of the others. Bearcat (talk) 03:58, 21 February 2023 (UTC)
- Delete Per reasons given.★Trekker (talk) 09:43, 21 February 2023 (UTC)
- Keep - While he does have some other acting credits (6), Friday the 13th's Jason is unequivocally his most famous role. Given that he likely doesn't qualify for a page of his own, having his name redirect to his most well known gig seems the best compromise next to not having a link for him at all as if he doesn't exist. BIGNOLE (Contact me) 17:19, 21 February 2023 (UTC)
- Delete to allow for uninhibited search and per the nom. A7V2 (talk) 00:59, 22 February 2023 (UTC)

- Delete. It seems bizarre to redirect a non-notable actor to just one of his roles. If he's gotten a "most famous role" that is "his most well known gig", either that's still not particularly significant, and we can delete this for the provided reason, or he really qualifies for WP:BIO, and this ought to be deleted to encourage creation of an article. Nyttend (talk) 05:53, 13 March 2023 (UTC)
Una (prefix)
- Una (prefix) → Unit prefix#Unofficial prefixes (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: //delete ]
There is nothing about "una" in the article and this redirect is therefore confusing. Shhhnotsoloud (talk) 15:27, 11 March 2023 (UTC)
- When the redirect was put in place in 2004-2005, the article did mention the (bogus) Una- prefix. See e.g. here. We should document it and add it to the article. At which point the redirect will become legitimate again. Urhixidur (talk) 02:44, 12 March 2023 (UTC)
- Delete unless added to the target with reliable sources. —Mx. Granger (talk · contribs) 03:11, 13 March 2023 (UTC)
Tuyet
I am not seeing any affinity for the term "Tuyet" to the disambiguation page, TOA. Within the encyclopedia, "Tuyet" appears to be a component of a number of Vietnamese names, but nothing relevant to the current redirect target. BD2412 T 15:11, 11 March 2023 (UTC)
- This was created in 2007 as an article about a fictional character in the Lego Bionicle franchise [1], and it was shortly afterwards redirected to a more general article that had a brief mention of this character. But that general article itself is now gone after an AfD. I guess that means it's unlikely Wikipedia will ever have any content about the character, so the article history here shouldn't get in the way of deletion. – Uanfala (talk) 13:25, 12 March 2023 (UTC)
- I've nominated several other redirects of this type for deletion at Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion/Log/2023 March 12#Various Lego toas. – Uanfala (talk) 13:58, 12 March 2023 (UTC)

- Aerosmith/ZZ Top Tour → Aerosmith (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: //delete ]
This is an WP:XY issue. They are both billed co-headliners. There might be the probable cause of WP:PTOPIC or WP:REDYES on BLAR-ing the joint co-headlining tour. I would suggest restore the article and send to AFD as QuietHere states that, "co-headlining concert tours won't survive long at AFD". There are three/four BLAR-turned into restored pre-BLARs to ultimately deleted ones that is resulted in an outcome. 2600:1700:9BF3:220:34F4:792E:B1E7:2AB0 (talk) 05:59, 28 February 2023 (UTC)

Create an article at this title. Based on the content in the Aerosmith article, this was a crazy tour, with numerous injuries. A separate article could contain additional information of interest, such as the tour dates (and which of those were postponed/cancelled due to the continuing tour mishaps). I would hazzard that these will be easy to source, as cancelled tour dates from a major band make the news in the cancelled cities.BD2412 T 15:15, 11 March 2023 (UTC)

Unipersonalist
- Unipersonalist → Unitarian (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: //delete ]
- Unipersonalism → Unitarian (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: //delete ]
Not mention in target article and a Google search tells me that a unipersonalist believes in a unipersonal deity (Merriam-Webster), and is not synonymous with Unitarianism. soetermans. ↑↑↓↓←→←→ B A TALK 09:45, 17 February 2023 (UTC)
- I'm not personally familiar with unipersonalism but that definition makes it sound like a synonym for nontrinitarianism, a belief which Unitarians have but they aren't necessarily the only ones who do. Retarget to nontrinitarianism. QuietHere (talk) 10:31, 17 February 2023 (UTC)
- I mean, do you intend to make a separate article for Unipersonalist / Unipersonalism? Because in the absence of such an article, the redirect is pointing to the best place. Certainly the difference between the two concepts is minor, hinging on whether you think God is a "person". jej1997 (talk) 04:00, 21 February 2023 (UTC)

- Disambiguate. This could refer to multiple positions within the context of Christianity. The standard trinitarian formula is "One God, three persons." A unipersonalist believes that God is one person. This could mean rejecting that Jesus was divine, which is Unitarianism (historically Arianism), or believing that he became divine but was not, to borrow trinitarian language, "true God" (Adoptionism). It could also refer to the belief that Father and Son are different aspects of the same person (Modalism). In addition to all of these Christian uses, the term would apply to "true" monotheism (i.e., Judaism and Islam). —Compassionate727 (T·C) 05:25, 4 March 2023 (UTC)

- Retarget to nontrinitarianism. "Unipersonalism" is equivalent to the general concept of "Unitarianism", but because that term tends to be much more specific than the general concept (you won't find Jehovah's Witnesses describing themselves as "Unitarian", for example), we need to redirect to a different term that refers only to the general concept. (Think of this like politics: labour issues in politics aren't necessarily tied to the politics of a Labour Party, some conservatives disagree with a Conservative Party, socialists won't necessarily join a Socialist Party, etc., and in the same way, not all unitarians are associated with Unitarianism.)

Kristen Cui
- Kristen Cui → Knock at the Cabin (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: //delete ]
I suggest the redirect be deleted because it is being used only on the page it redirects back without giving any information about the person it refers to. It doesn't make any sense. Plus once we have more information about the said child actor, it can be used to create a named page later on. But right now, the redirect can be done away with. Navjot Singh (talk) 01:32, 22 February 2023 (UTC)
- Note: I corrected the syntax of the nomination which did involve removing some text which isn't exactly duplicated above, but is very similar. Skynxnex (talk) 03:48, 22 February 2023 (UTC)
- Keep it seems reasonable to redirect the name of an actor known only for one film to the article about the film. The target does mention the subject and it's a plausible search term. Hut 8.5 18:33, 23 February 2023 (UTC)
- Delete. The existence of this bluelink creates the false impression that an article exists. Similar bluelinks are listed for deletion at Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion/Log/2023 February 22#Dick Wieand as well as at Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion/Log/2023 February 22#Dick Wiend. —Roman Spinner (talk • contribs) 01:21, 27 February 2023 (UTC)

Tupac (rapper)

We have Tupac redirecting to Tupac Shakur, suggest deleting. ErceÇamurOfficial (talk) 08:43, 11 March 2023 (UTC)
- Why? What's the problem? This is never going to be deleted unless you, or someone else, provides a good reason. Nyttend (talk) 08:47, 11 March 2023 (UTC)
- It needs to be deleted since Tupac redirects to Tupac Shakur. ErceÇamurOfficial (talk) 18:31, 16 March 2023 (UTC)
- Weak keep per WP:CHEAP: the redirect is plausible enough. InterstellarGamer12321 (talk | contribs) 10:15, 11 March 2023 (UTC)
- Keep as a plausible {{R from unnecessary disambiguation}}. J947 † edits 10:44, 11 March 2023 (UTC)
- Keep per J947, considering Tupac redirects to Tupac Shakur and since the target subject is frequently referred to by their first name as a mononym. Steel1943 (talk) 19:25, 11 March 2023 (UTC)
- Keep per everyone above me. This may be unnecessary disambiguation, but it's descriptive, unambiguous, not harming things around here, potentially helpful, and furthermore, Tupac is frequently called just that. I don't really see a reason why this redirect needs to go. Regards, SONIC678 01:26, 12 March 2023 (UTC)
- Keep: Until March 2016, Tupac (name) was at Tupac so this redirect makes sense given that for a long period of time Tupac did not go to Tupac Shakur also as stated above, it's a WP:CHEAP redirect. TartarTorte 16:20, 13 March 2023 (UTC)

- Retarget to title suggested by nom. Redirecting this title to keep local makes no sense, as it's already been moved to Commons, why name this redirect "NoCommons" in that case? Justarandomamerican (talk) Have a good day! 03:50, 11 March 2023 (UTC)
- Note that this really ought to be bundled with {{Nocommons}}, which also redirects to {{Keep local}}. I created this redirect as a logical capitalisation variant of Nocommons, and I can't imagine why we'd want them to redirect to different places. Nyttend (talk) 08:37, 11 March 2023 (UTC)
2027 FIBA Basketball World Cup

- Meh. There's no CRYSTAL issue if all we have is a redirect and redirects are cheap. Pichpich (talk) 19:47, 11 March 2023 (UTC)

Redirect title contains incorrect information about the subject (actual death year was 1719) DeemDeem52 (talk) 00:58, 11 March 2023 (UTC)
- Keep From April 2010 to June 2022, the article was called "Henry Colley (died 1700)" and it was moved at the start of July in 2022. Per the history,
Pwaldron moved page Henry Colley (died 1700) to Henry Colley (died 1719): Year of death is wrong; about to add sources to confirm.
So "(died 1700)" is incorrect. However, even with the move there has been a decent amount of use. Since the creation of the redirect, it has been used over 3,000 times and excluding September 2022, it has been used over 2,100 times. (For some unclear reason, there was a significant increase in usage of the redirect starting on September 8th and continuing though almost the rest of the month.) Given the usage, I would say that it should be kept with a redirect template added to it to make it clearer that it is in use due to the mistake. (Template:R from incorrect disambiguation?) --Super Goku V (talk) 01:57, 11 March 2023 (UTC) - Keep per Super Goku V. When an article's had a certain title for a very long time (in this case, the majority of Wikipedia's history), the old title pretty much always should be retained. This isn't a case of retaining a created-by-pagemove-vandalism redirect, which is unlikely ever to be used. To the contrary, it presumably has hundreds or thousands of incoming links from Wikipedia alone — for example, in the history of Richard Wesley, 1st Baron Mornington (his son), [2] and [3] both link to this redirect, as (presumably) do all 129 page revisions between them. {{R from incorrect disambiguation}} is indeed the correct way to handle this. Nyttend (talk) 08:46, 11 March 2023 (UTC)
- Keep per above. J947 † edits 10:43, 11 March 2023 (UTC)
- You're right; Template:R from incorrect disambiguation seems a better way to handle the redirect than to delete it. I'll withdraw my nomination. DeemDeem52 (talk) 02:33, 12 March 2023 (UTC)
