- Template:Des → Template:Short description (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: //delete ]
Recently created redirect. Per Template:Short_description#Aliases these are actually harmful to the project and require a lot of overhead to make things work. Editors wishing to add short descriptions to articles should take the 1 minute to read this instead of creating new redirects. Gonnym (talk) 23:06, 15 August 2024 (UTC)
- Delete per nom, Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion/Log/2021 July 20#Aliases for Short description template and "Des" being an ambiguous and unintuitive abbreviation of "Short description". Thryduulf (talk) 00:12, 16 August 2024 (UTC)

- The result of the discussion was retarget to Ontario Highway 407. (non-admin closure) CycloneYoris talk! 07:47, 23 August 2024 (UTC)
- Highway 407 → List of highways numbered 407 (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: //delete ]
Looking at the history of this page, there has been a debate on whether or not Highway 407 should redirect to Ontario Highway 407 (which was the case until ~20 mins earlier, and 10 years before that) or the List of highways numbered 407. It's been going back and forth at least twice. In fact, I recently changed the target to Ontario Highway 407, before being redirected back to the list. Therefore, I need to see if this should be (re)targeted to the highway in Canada (which may be the primary topic?) or kept at its current target (the list). Again, the history of the redirect page is why I took it to RFD. JuniperChill (talk) 19:42, 15 August 2024 (UTC)
- Retarget to Ontario Highway 407. Literally 100% of the results on at least the first six pages of results when Googling for "Highway 407" -Wikipedia are for the Canadian road. Even searching for "Highway 407" -Wikipedia -Canada -Toronto -Ontario -ETR 100% of the results on the first two pages are for this road - even some of the results for "Highway 407" Louisiana -Wikipedia" are for the Ontario highway. This is one of the clearest primary topics I've ever seen. Thryduulf (talk) 20:16, 15 August 2024 (UTC)
- Retarget to Ontario Highway 407 per Thryduulf as the primary topic. C F A 💬 18:43, 16 August 2024 (UTC)

Gender-neutral games and toys

- Gender-neutral games and toys → Toy#Gender (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: //delete ]
About a day or so ago, sort of as a temporary measure until I could figure out a better course of action with this redirect, I had refined this redirect to Toy#Gender from Toy due to believing the base title not being adequate for explaining this redirect. However, I just realized that due to the fact the word "games" is in this redirect, the redirect's title seems to be an incorrect connection to its target due to potential WP:XY issues since the target is about toys and not games. At this point, I'm thinking deletion is the best option. Steel1943 (talk) 21:11, 20 July 2024 (UTC)
- We ought to have some content about this, given the existence of Boys' toys and games and Girls' toys and games. Gender neutrality#Children's toys is similar to the current target. I'm wondering about a disambig/broad concept article? The existence of Toys and games in ancient Rome also points to "toys" and "games" being highly plausible combined search terms. Let Toys Be Toys is also relevant here. Thryduulf (talk) 11:50, 23 July 2024 (UTC)

- E610 → Bhopal disaster (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: //delete ]
While E610 is mentioned at the target (it was the serial number of the gas tank that leaked and caused the disaster), this string also shows up in several other articles, such as LG Optimus L5, Orange SPV and South African Class 5E1, Series 2. Neither an internet search nor Google Scholar suggest a primary target, so deletion to allow for internal search results seems most appropriate. signed, Rosguill talk 18:10, 15 July 2024 (UTC)
- Delete - this is one for the search engine. Ivanvector (Talk/Edits) 18:48, 15 July 2024 (UTC)
- I think it would be best to turn it into a disambiguation page that links to those other articles. Luvcraft (talk) 02:19, 17 July 2024 (UTC)
- Disambiguate. Search finds these uses among other less useful results: lists that mention the LG Optimus, and various pages where references contain the string "E610" in page numbers or URLs. Peter James (talk) 15:26, 23 July 2024 (UTC)

- → Template:Footer Olympic Champions Men C-1 Slalom (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: //delete ]
It is unclear why this should redirect to Template:Footer Olympic Champions Men C-1 Slalom and not to Template:Footer Olympic Champions Women C-1 Slalom which is available since 2020. Ymblanter (talk) 14:46, 21 July 2024 (UTC)
- Weak keep - This appears to be the original title of the template it points to. I presume the women's event was started in 2020 or not covered until then. Template shortcuts are very often ambiguous. As they are for editors (not readers), this does little harm. Weak because I am sympathetic to the nominators point. If this were in the mainspace a disambiguation would very much be due; however, such an action is not appropriate for a template redirect and I do not support deletion (because ambiguity is not grounds to delete a shortcut). There is also no benefit of obscuring the page history through deletion. — Godsy (TALKCONT) 05:52, 23 July 2024 (UTC)

This isn't explained at the target. 1234qwer1234qwer4 08:44, 23 July 2024 (UTC)
- Delete: term is not used anywhere else on Wikipedia, and I see too many varied usages in sources for it to be targeted to any specific one. This use case certainly isn't the first I would suggest. If they had to go anywhere, I would think Newtonian would make the most sense, but without the wider usage on site it feels like keeping them for the sake of keeping. QuietHere (talk | contributions) 14:23, 23 July 2024 (UTC)
- Retarget to Newtonian as an ambiguous term: seems to be used ([1][2][3][4], etc.). A mention may be warranted somewhere. C F A 💬 20:17, 23 July 2024 (UTC)

The target of all of these related redirects is a section that no longer exists in the target article. (These are all related to fictional characters or works within the fiction of the show itself — hence doubly fictional, which presumably is why the content didn't survive.) There doesn't seem to be anything relevant in the main Arthur (TV series) article, either. Nor in Marc Brown (author), our article for the author of the Arthur books. Propose deleting these unless some other appropriate target can be found. - dcljr (talk) 04:25, 26 July 2024 (UTC)
- Retarget Bionic Bunny and Dark Bunny to List of fictional rabbits and hares#Animation where they are mentioned. Delete the others as there doesn't appear to be a good target. Thryduulf (talk) 10:28, 26 July 2024 (UTC)
- The subject of The Bionic Bunny Show is Bionic Bunny, so maybe also redirect that one to the same target? - dcljr (talk) 00:10, 27 July 2024 (UTC)

Unused. Chilodontidae is a former spelling (now regarded as incorrect) for a gastropod family. Chilodontidae is a current, correct spelling for a fish family. See the Chilodontidae dab page.

- White support of donald trump → Donald Trump 2016 presidential campaign#White nationalists and white supremacists (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: //delete ]
Couple of concerns with these redirects' wordings:
- It's odd that a redirect with this phrasing targets 1 of 4 presidential campaign pages related to Donald Trump running for president. How can there be any guarantee readers searching this phrase are looking for this target?
- Specific to the current target, the first redirect contains the phrase "President Donald Trump"; Donald Trump was not a President until after the 2016 campaign.

- Not particularly. The redirects allude to groups of people who support for Donald Trump, not Donald Trump's views that could potentially be racist. Steel1943 (talk) 05:09, 25 July 2024 (UTC)

- Biden crisis → Withdrawal of Joe Biden from the 2024 United States presidential election (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: //delete ]
I feel like there are a lot of sorts of things one might expect to see when they search this term (for example, Mexico–United_States_border_crisis#Biden_administration or 2023 United States banking crisis, or any other "crisis" during the administration might be sought), and I don't suspect that any particular one is the WP:PTOPIC. I think that this should either be disambiguated or deleted, as I don't think the current redirect can be justified absent a primary topic. — Red-tailed hawk (nest) 03:39, 29 July 2024 (UTC)
- Delete: the current target smacks of WP:RECENTISM and there is no clear alternative. Rosbif73 (talk) 07:40, 29 July 2024 (UTC)
- Keep. Looking at Presidency of Joe Biden there are many things that have been called a crisis during his term in office that could be referred to (especially by political opponents) as "Biden crisis" but this is by far the primary topic. Is that recentism? It's too soon to know! What we do know is that people using this search term now are overwhelmingly going to be looking for the current target. If that changes in the future we can reevaluate the redirect at that point. Thryduulf (talk) 09:02, 29 July 2024 (UTC)
- Delete too many storms in a teacup were called the Biden crisis. There's no clear target. Headbomb {t · c · p · b} 13:27, 29 July 2024 (UTC)
- Keep - reliable sources called it "Biden crisis", eg: NPR: "'We can't catch a break.' How the Biden crisis looks from the inside", Politico: "Pelosi privately fields battleground Dem calls as she works to address Biden crisis", Axios: "Trump rally shooting upends Democrats' Biden crisis", UK Channel 4: Biden crisis: supporters question President’s future as he pledges to continue - all in headlines. If you broaden the search to "Biden's crisis" even more results for the same topic appear. It's also worth noting that Withdrawal of Joe Biden from the 2024 United States presidential election was originally created with the name "Biden crisis" before the withdrawal was actually confirmed by Biden. BugGhost🦗👻 16:25, 29 July 2024 (UTC)
- Weak keep. I was about to nominate this myself a few days ago, but then changed my mind since apparently, the redirect may be an alternative name for the target per sources. Steel1943 (talk) 19:39, 29 July 2024 (UTC)
- Delete Not adequately sourced enough, the term "It's Joever" was actually used far more to refer to Biden's diminishing capacity to win the election in the months before his withdraw than "Biden crisis." Biden crisis can refer to a bunch of things. HadesTTW (he/him • talk) 18:21, 4 August 2024 (UTC)

- Eh? Redirects exist to take people from search terms they are likely to use to the content they are looking for when using that search term. We do this regardless of why they might be using the term. Deleting a redirect simply because it is used by one politician would be a massive failure of WP:NPOV. Thryduulf (talk) 10:37, 10 August 2024 (UTC)

- Just to double check - you're accusing me of sealioning (with a total of 3 comments) - and saying my motivation for doing this is because you think I'm pro-Trump and want to post "Wikipedia describes and confirms Biden's Crisis" on twitter?

- Keep — I concur with Bugghost. "Biden crisis" is a headline term that became a general term in reference to the events leading up to Biden's withdrawal, and it was used by NPR. elijahpepe@wikipedia (he/him) 04:27, 14 August 2024 (UTC)

Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Hey man im josh (talk) 18:54, 15 August 2024 (UTC)- using the same logic as "pokémon incident", this requires defining "crisis" in a way that somehow narrows it down to this specific event and not any of the other crises and controversies he was involved in. i'll support dabifying if possible, or deleting if not cogsan (nag me) (stalk me) 13:00, 16 August 2024 (UTC)

- i believe that's recentism. the next time he gets tangled up in something, it could very well become the next "biden crisis", just as there were "biden crises" before this one, and this discussion could happen again, and again, and again, until he dies cogsan (nag me) (stalk me) 20:13, 16 August 2024 (UTC)
- Recentism is about article content. If something else becomes the primary target in the future then we can retarget or disambiguate at that point. We best serve the readers who are looking this up now by taking them to what the primary target is now, not making things harder because we guess that something might happen in the future.

- Just because a phrase is theoretically ambiguous does not negate the evidence of the current target being the clear primary topic. Unless you'd like to present such evidence of course. Thryduulf (talk) 12:26, 2 September 2024 (UTC)
- Delete. There are sources calling the events proceeding Biden's withdrawal a crisis, though many of those use the indefinite article
"a crisis"
([5], [6]) or use another word to specify such as"campaign crisis"
([7], [8]),"post-debate crisis"
([9]), or"health crisis"
([10]). "Biden crisis" alone is a descriptive term with plenty of other possible targets, such as part of Biden's inauguration speech ([11]) and a particularly common framing of immigration and border patrol policies ([12], [13]). And that's just to name a few; see for instance [14]. This redirect came from a page move, and the title was unsuitable for the page. Note also the redirect's history seems insignificant in spite of the tag, as it contains only Special:Diff/1235882886, which was immediately reverted and does not appear to be reflected in another page's history as copied from here (though I may be missing it). Dylnuge (Talk • Edits) 22:57, 28 August 2024 (UTC)- Some sources referring to the event at "a crisis" or some other phrase does not diminish the fact multiple reliable sources referred to it as "Biden crisis". It also makes no difference whether the words "Biden" and "crisis" have appeared completely separately in other news stories. This argument, despite the links, does not display any other event or news story that has ever been described using the phrase "Biden crisis". This RFD is an extremely clear example of a correct redirect based on reliable sources, and I am genuinely surprised to see that there are good, long-standing editors that cannot see this BugGhost🦗👻 22:48, 1 September 2024 (UTC)
- Indeed, there is lots of evidence of this event being the primary topic for the search term "Biden crisis" and nearly all the attempted refutation is actually completely irrelevant. The only thing that matters is what people are looking for when they search the exact term "Biden crisis" - what people are looking for when they use other search terms, or what other people call this event make no difference at all.

- What does "same group of writers" even mean? There were four sources posted, each with different author and from a different reliable source (not just Axios/Politico). Even if it were just one "group of writers" that would not affect the fact that it was called "Biden crisis" by some, and no other event has been called that. BugGhost🦗👻 10:02, 8 September 2024 (UTC)

These redirects should be deleted. The developer's name and a typo are being redirected to its first notable game; the article itself mentions the developer's history but the redirect is barely used outside of articles for its games as well as game list articles. I do not believe it will be used enough to deserve a redirect of its own, like most other independent developers with notable games with their own articles. MimirIsSmart (talk) 06:05, 1 August 2024 (UTC)
- Comment: the article itself mentions the developer's history is ample reason to keep the redirect. You could at most argue WP:XY because the studio's other game, Heave Ho, also has an article. A typo is not in sight. IceWelder [✉] 10:10, 1 August 2024 (UTC)

A catchphrase not mentioned at the target article and provides no context to incoming readers, with the only allusion to this phrase being from one reference. Utopes (talk / cont) 17:55, 8 August 2024 (UTC)
- Keep: What's the problem and what's your suggestion? I don't see a problem here, and "who said this line" is a helpful service. This was a very famous line for Jack Benny. — BarrelProof (talk) 18:08, 8 August 2024 (UTC)
- The problem is exactly as I described. This is a redirect from a phrase which is not mentioned at the target article. People who search for this phrase will not receive any content related to their search of "cutting that out", as "cut"-ting is never talked about there. "Who said this line" is a service provided entirely by Google and is the reason that WikiQuote exists, allowing us to avoid baking thousands of WP redirects into concrete, based on anything any person has ever said. Indeed, famous people might have famous quotes. But even among the greatest of these, without a reference to substantiate its famousness at the target biography, there's no reason to keep it as a misleading redirect (misleading in the sense that it indicates to readers we have content when we do not). My suggestion is to delete. Utopes (talk / cont) 18:46, 8 August 2024 (UTC)
- Just because Google might usually win a "who said this line" contest doesn't mean Wikipedia shouldn't try to help people find the subject they're looking for. — BarrelProof (talk) 21:07, 8 August 2024 (UTC)
- All material on Wikipedia must be verifiable. There is no content on Wikipedia about this phrase besides a sourceless redirect, and no sources present in the article to back up the assertion of this quote's famousness. There is no evidence that people searching for the phrase "now cut that out" are seeking the article for Jack Benny; it is more plausible that people who search for the phrase "now cut that out" are looking for written material about the phrase "now cut that out". This information is not present at the Jack Benny article, so this redirect disappoints & misleads searchers who expect to find material specific to their Wikipedia search at the target page.
- If these searchers wanted to read about Jack Benny, they wouldn't search "now cut that out", but instead search for the name "Jack Benny". Searching for the name of an individual with a Wikipedia page will give users the page they're searching for with ~99% accuracy. Searching for a quote yet ending up at a page about a person, as opposed to an page dedicated to the quote they are searching for, will work for approximately ~0% of quotes in existence, and Wikipedia is not an indiscriminate collection of unreferenced quote-person-associations. Wikiquote is more suitable for connecting people with the quotes they said, although searching for "now cut that out" on Google still recommends the Wikipedia page for Jack Benny anyway.

- Keep. As Trailblazer101 points out, the central claim of the OP—that the target article doesn't mention the catchphrase—is no longer true. I was one of two users who added content about the catchphrase and its significance as part of the reception of the character. It was interesting to notice this RFD involving the catchphrase. From what I've found, coverage of this catchphrase substantially gravitates around the character covered in the target article. Even on GoogleScholar, the first hit for "I can do this all day" is about the topic of the target article. To address a delete argument, this would not be like redirecting "America" to the target article because both keyword searching and general assessment of sources demonstrates clearly that coverage of the term "America" does not gravitate around MCU character Steve Rogers.

- Retarget to WP:WikiProject Scientology - Since the most significant parts of WP:ARBSCI have been rescinded (and because WP:ARBSCI exists as a redirect) there's little reason for WP:SCIENTOLOGY to point to RfArb/Scientology anymore, and the WikiProject seems like it is and always should have been the more reasonable target. —Jéské Couriano v^_^v threads critiques 17:29, 15 August 2024 (UTC)

- Retarget but add hatnote to the arbcase. We should always be very conservative when retargetting shortcuts as the potential for confusion and misunderstanding is high - interpretations of things said in old discussions can be changed, and people familiar with the link won't look to see if the target is changed leading to people potentially using the same words to refer to different targets. However in this case, there are no relevant links (although edit summaries and unlinked uses can't be discounted) and very few uses (11 this year before today) meaning the risk of issues in this specific case is outweighed by the greater utility of the proposed target.

- Delete per WP:NAVELGAZING - no reliable sources (that I could find) discuss the topic, therefore there is no article to be made. Our myriad of jargony internal policy documents don't serve much of a purpose for readers looking for an encyclopedia article on this topic, which we do not have. Project pages are not articles, do not have the same standards, and are written for a completely different audience. If we really want to have cross-namespace redirects from reader-space into project-space, we should do it with a soft redirect, one that will advise the reader that we do not have an encyclopedia article on the topic they're looking for, but they can click through if they really want to see how the sausage is made; just dumping them into project space unawares is frankly kind of cruel. Ivanvector (Talk/Edits) 19:00, 15 July 2024 (UTC)
- Meh (weak keep). I see both sides of the argument. I agree with Ivanvector that there is likely no chance that CheckUser (be it the MediaWiki extension, the WMF implementation thereof, or anything else similar) is going to be a notable topic on its own. But I'm confused why that means that we need to delete it. We have multiple other CNRs from Main->Project, such as Administrators noticeboard (and variations), Autoconfirmed, Disambiguation page, Good article, and many more (can sift through Category:Redirects to project space to find more). Unless there's previously been a discussion that has resulted in a consensus that main->project redirects are not permitted... then what's the harm? If the topic isn't notable, there's a non-zero chance someone who, say, is checkuser blocked will simply search the term "Checkuser" on Wikipedia, and I don't think it serves them to not redirect them to our project space page explaining it. If the topic was potentially notable on its own, then making an article would be preferable - but I don't buy the argument that a blank/deleted page is better than a redirect if someone searches for it on Wikipedia. -bɜ:ʳkənhɪmez (User/say hi!) 21:11, 15 July 2024 (UTC)
- @Berchanhimez: redirects from the mainspace to project space are discouraged (see WP:CNR for the background) and frequently deleted. Exceptions do exist, most commonly (but not exclusively) where it is desirable that the target page is easy to find by very new users who haven't learned about namespaces yet (administrators noticeboard and Wikipedia help are examples). The second most common is for internal aspects that people outside the project will have heard of (or assume exist) and want to look up but which don't have an encyclopaedic target (e.g. good articles). Thryduulf (talk) 01:45, 16 July 2024 (UTC)
- I find it unreasonable to think that those two are things a new user would be likely to search for, and not CheckUser, when CheckUser is used as a rationale for a block or referenced on those noticeboards sometimes. I am not saying they shouldn't be discouraged, but this is one that actually makes sense, in my view. -bɜ:ʳkənhɪmez (User/say hi!) 02:47, 16 July 2024 (UTC)

- Keep: There's nothing inherently wrong with CNRs. Our goal is to help the reader get to where they want to go. Anyone typing "CheckUser" into the search bar evidently wants to get to the project page. Deleting it is just removing a helpful, unambiguous redirect for no reason. C F A 💬 16:40, 16 July 2024 (UTC)

- Keep. This is a useful CNR shortcut created by a well-established editor many years ago (2017) based on another CNR shortcut (Checkuser). That one was created by another well-established editor many years before that (2006). 1) Both are firmly "grandfathered-in" CNRs, and 2) per WP:R#KEEP, R3, R4 and R5. P.I.

- Delete. It takes readers to a different section of the encyclopedia, and it doesn't sit right with me to bring readers to non-reader pages. SWinxy (talk) 16:00, 8 August 2024 (UTC)
- Please help me to understand your discomfort with this mere shortcut. It is only used on talk pages by editors who want to lead other editors to the Wikipedia:CheckUser reference page (policy). It has no other usage than that. If a reader who is not an editor becomes involved in a talk page discussion, then it might actually lead that reader to beome an editor. The point is, it's just a shortcut, and it doesn't matter what namespace it's in. It's just a grandfathered-in shortcut, nothing more, nothing less. P.I.

Should probably be deleted as non-neutral and poorly matched. While "tax cuts for the rich" are sometimes promoted as a method of trickle-down economics, they really aren't the same concept. Redirecting to tax cut does not make a lot of sense either. Jruderman (talk) 09:56, 21 July 2024 (UTC)
- Keep - it's neutral (and even if it wasn't, redirects don't have to be neutral) and summarises the article's lead well:
Trickle-down economics refers to economic policies that disproportionately favor the upper tier of the economic spectrum, comprising wealthy individuals
andMajor examples of what critics have called "trickle-down economics" in the U.S. include the Reagan tax cuts, the Bush tax cuts, and the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017. Major UK examples include Liz Truss's mini-budget tax cuts of 2022
. The article describes the topic as primarily tax cuts for rich people - it's a good redirect. BugGhost🦗👻 10:45, 22 July 2024 (UTC)

- Delete. This could point to a number of places (chiefly, tax cut comes to mind), but none of them are a primary topic for this search term, and this doesn't lend itself way to being DABified. — Red-tailed hawk (nest) 03:42, 29 July 2024 (UTC)
- Keep - Since this is mentioned at the target and "Trickle-down economics" is a very common descriptor of policies like this.
