Hippotaur
- The following is an archived discussion concerning one or more redirects. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on an appropriate discussion page (such as the redirect's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this section.
- The result of the discussion was no consensus. Retargeting to wiktionary as the most apt compromise. (non-admin closure) Utopes (talk / cont) 05:44, 12 February 2025 (UTC)
Not mentioned in target. The target describes a cattle/equine hybrid, while a "hippotaur" would presumably be a cattle/hippo hybrid. Common usage does not seem to usually be referring to a jumart. Rusalkii (talk) 04:54, 10 January 2025 (UTC)
- Weak keep – I can't find any sources to justify a mention at the target, but it's a reasonable construction. The prefix hippo- means "horse", not "hippopotamus". jlwoodwa (talk) 08:41, 10 January 2025 (UTC)
- Ah, I forgot about the "horse" meaning, good point. I think I still lean delete but much more weakly. Rusalkii (talk) 19:06, 10 January 2025 (UTC)
- delete at the moment,
as a bad punas unmentioned, possibly veering into original research (original guesstimating?). little prejudice against genetically engineering hippo cows though, it'd be funny consarn(wouldn't it be fucked upif there was a hippotaur?)13:35, 10 January 2025 (UTC)- results gave me nothing of note, by the way. only furry ocs and ai slop consarn (speak evil) (see evil) 13:41, 10 January 2025 (UTC)
- Really, consarn? You're calling a c.ai bot "ai slop"? (Especially one that seems to have effort put in?)
- I looked up to you for a while, but I'm starting to regret that. For crying out loud, you're on Wikipedia so in the same amount of time it took you to write this comment you could've gone to the Wikipedia article for ACTUAL slop. User:Someone-123-321 (I contribute, Talk page so SineBot will shut up) 13:19, 11 January 2025 (UTC)
- nah, i mean bird app ai slop (the horror!). though i do also happen to not be the biggest c.ai fan (or hater) in existence, that's for reasons unrelated to this specific case consarn (speak evil) (see evil) 15:41, 11 January 2025 (UTC)

- The result of the discussion was Delete * Pppery * it has begun... 18:41, 29 January 2025 (UTC)
- Line of Corpses → Netzarim Corridor (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: //delete ]
This phrase seems to have been used recently by a Haaretz publication to refer to the military line in Gaza, and several other outlets have picked that up. The primary long-term topic according to a quick search is the song by that name on the album Wreath of Barbs, which we mention on that article. Not sure if it is best to delete altogether or redirect to the album; normally I would consider redirecting myself but this is a controversial topic so sending to RFD for community discussion. Rusalkii (talk) 22:23, 9 January 2025 (UTC)
- I guess you are referring to the Haaretz article "No Civilians. Everyone's a Terrorist': IDF Soldiers Expose Arbitrary Killings and Rampant Lawlessness in Gaza's Netzarim Corridor". A least in the English version, the actual phrase seems to be 'the line of dead bodies' from the following sentence.
- The forces in the field call it 'the line of dead bodies'" a commander in Division 252 tells Haaretz. "After shootings, bodies are not collected, attracting packs of dogs who come to eat them. In Gaza, people know that wherever you see these dogs, that's where you must not go.
- Same in this editorial and this MSNBC report.
- This phrase then seems to be transformed to 'line of corpses' in reports/posts about the Haaretz report for some reason. Either way, it doesn't seem like a very useful redirect. Sean.hoyland (talk) 08:51, 10 January 2025 (UTC)
- Also, the page was created by Sa1e24, a user without extendedconfirmed privileges. The page creation was therefore a WP:ARBECR violation and should probably have been speedily deleted. Sean.hoyland (talk) 09:04, 10 January 2025 (UTC)

Category:Transsexuals
- The following is an archived discussion concerning one or more redirects. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on an appropriate discussion page (such as the redirect's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this section.
- The result of the discussion was delete. With no opposition, "delete both for now, without prejudice" carries. asilvering (talk) 22:27, 9 February 2025 (UTC)
- Category:Transsexuals → Category:Transgender people (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: //delete ]
- Category:Homosexuals → Category:LGBTQ people (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: //delete ]
Despite being Transsexuals being useful, it should be moved to Category:Transsexual people instead, to avoid derogation. While for homosexuals, it's misleading, not every LGBTQ individual experiences homosexuality or identifies as homosexual. However, I wouldn't oppose a move to Category:Homosexual people. LIrala (talk) 01:39, 23 December 2024 (UTC)
- I would propose Transsexuals -> Transsexual people and Homosexuals -> homosexual people. And make sure everyone in those categories identifies specifically with those terms. JuxtaposedJacob (talk) | :) | he/him | 19:08, 28 December 2024 (UTC)
- If the reason these are nominated at RfD is because the names are derogatory and the redirects should be deleted, then I have no objection. Delete and create the ones with new names. Start adding specific articles to the categories as appropriate outside of this RfD. Jay 💬 09:35, 31 December 2024 (UTC)
- Keep Homosexuals, category redirects don't have to be true of everyone in the category. Regarding Transsexuals, this is what happens when people deliberately make things worse. We used to have Category:Transgender and transsexual people, which recognized that there are some trans people who identify as transgender, some who identify as transsexual, and some as both. Some people disliked that name, some for policy-based reasons, some for IDONTLIKEIT ones. (N.B.: transsexual, while often a politically loaded term, is a term with a distinct academic meaning, not a slur, and is treated as such by this encyclopedia.) Splitting the category based on who is transgender and who is transsexual would have been painstaking, especially because sources are not always so clear on who identifies as which, and so what did CfD choose to do? It just renamed the category. Not even to trans, the catch-all term, but to transgender—a term that admittedly covers most people in the category, but not all of them. So, sure, instead of either leaving things be or doing the hard work of untangling things, let's just deliberately introduce factual errors into dozens/hundreds(?) of articles!So it's CfD's mess. Or maybe it's the admin team's mess, because that CfD was plagued with battleground conduct but most admins are afraid to touch WP:GENSEX. The solution here would be for someone to just create Category:Transsexual people and start populating it. The CfD's close says not to do that without consensus at WT:LGBTQ+, but, with respect, I don't think a WikiProject can be given binding power over whether a category ought to exist. Someone should just create the category, and if someone else objects they can take it to CfD, and maybe things will go smoother this time 'round.If that category is created, retarget there. If not, delete both for now, without prejudice against creating as redirects there if the category is later created. -- Tamzin[cetacean needed] (they|xe|🤷) 03:49, 2 January 2025 (UTC)

- The result of the discussion was disambiguate. Two support the disambiguation page and the one keep !vote doesn't oppose it, so there's a pretty clear consensus here. (non-admin closure) Cremastra (talk) 14:51, 28 January 2025 (UTC)
- Moon and Stars → Watermelon#Varieties (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: //delete ]
mentioned in the target, but also... you know... it's a name not primarily associated with watermelons. to my surprise, it actually gets a lot of views, so weak retarget to crescent and star (symbol)? consarn (speak evil) (see evil) 14:16, 20 January 2025 (UTC)
Weak keep, as the only reasonable target I can find. Crescent and star (symbol) only has one star, so this isn't a likely search term (as opposed to Moon and star, which sensibly already redirects there). I am struggling to find any other plausible targets (Maybe Astronomical object? But that's a very general term, and the Moon and stars are just two examples). If other relevant targets can be found, we can create a disambiguation page, but otherwise the watermelon variety seems like the right target to me. —Mx. Granger (talk · contribs) 19:16, 20 January 2025 (UTC)- Changed to disambiguate; the draft looks fine to me. —Mx. Granger (talk · contribs) 16:37, 22 January 2025 (UTC)
- Keep If people are using it, then we should assume that it is working. We don't have access to information about their journeys. If there are more possible targets then it should become a disambiguation page. It's probable that even if two dabs applies technically, hat notes would be over the top. All the best: Rich Farmbrough 22:05, 20 January 2025 (UTC).
- Disambiguate (drafted) for all the WP:DABMENTIONs; Zero evidence supporting that the watermelon variety is WP:PRIMARYREDIRECT, and at least one weak piece of evidence against (both the incoming links are intended for a music festival in Switzerland, barely mentioned at Locarno#Image gallery). 59.149.117.119 (talk) 02:13, 22 January 2025 (UTC)

- Bloodhouse → Housemarque#Bloodhouse and Terramarque (1993–1994) (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: //delete ]
It seems there has been some back and forth on this one based on the edit history of Bloodhouse and Bloodhouse (disambiguation). My instinct is to use Bloodhouse as the DAB page, but I wanted to get consensus given the history. Significa liberdade (she/her) (talk) 16:02, 8 January 2025 (UTC)
- My consensus to redirect Bloodhouse was that Bloodhouse the game dev is definitely more notable than that of a slang word. By the way, I had redirected the pub article. MimirIsSmart (talk) 23:22, 8 January 2025 (UTC)
- Hi, MimirIsSmart! Was consensus made with another editor, or are you explaining your personal decision to move the page? Significa liberdade (she/her) (talk) 13:49, 9 January 2025 (UTC)

Relisting comment: Is there a primary topic? Notified of this discussion at the target and the disambig page.
Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Jay 💬 13:59, 20 January 2025 (UTC)
- Comment: On the first page of a Google Books search for "bloodhouse", I found multiple hits for the Australian slang topic[1][2][3] and only one for the Finnish video game company[4] (as well as some apparently unrelated hits in sci-fi and fantasy contexts[5][6][7]). On that basis, it doesn't seem like the video game company is the primary topic, so I would lean towards moving the disambiguation page to this title. By the way, Bloodhouse (rough pub) is currently a redirect to Australian pub, but maybe it should be refined to the relevant section Australian pub#Violence and crime. —Mx. Granger (talk · contribs) 19:29, 20 January 2025 (UTC)

- Xenopronoun → Neopronoun#Noun-self pronouns (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: //delete ]
When this term is used in online MOGAI circles, it seems to refer to a kind of neopronoun that are unable to be understood by humans[8][9][10] (While I know that these sources are unreliable, there aren't really any reliable sources that discuss this topic). The current target links to "nounself pronouns", which are a different category. JJPMaster (she/they) 02:01, 2 January 2025 (UTC)
- Delete By their very nature, Xenopronouns aren't currently known by humans. User:Someone-123-321 (I contribute, Talk page so SineBot will shut up) 04:40, 2 January 2025 (UTC)

Xenopronouns aren't currently known by humans

- Comment many such reliable sources exist proving it is a thing. Saying things like
- Comment: 'Xenopronouns' are briefly mentioned in the following, more reliable sources: Repertoires of Racial Resistance (book), Medicalizing Me Softly (master's thesis), and “Trans Enough” for Tumblr? (doctoral dissertation). Significa liberdade (she/her) (talk) 06:08, 2 January 2025 (UTC)
- Keep per Significa Liberdade. TheTechie@enwiki (she/they | talk) 00:47, 3 January 2025 (UTC)
- Many people use this term to mean nounself pronouns or even neopronouns in general, typically because they don't know this specific definition, which is possibly a recoining or reinvention. I couldn't check what's the meaning these sources are using. It's a brief mention, only a source with a lot of microlabels and neologisms would use this meaning or know this lore.

- As the original nominator to Delete this redirect, I would say that since the main voting period of the annulled presidential election was only in 2024, and thus I see no point in using article names such as 2024–25 Romanian presidential election when they led to confusion that the voting period was stretched into the new year 2025 (it was not). As there is an article 2025 Romanian presidential election for the fresh future election (which includes different presidential candidates), the obsolete redirect with no articles linked to it, should be annihilated.--Shamrockwikiedit (talk) 10:16, 17 January 2025 (UTC)

- Bundling up other similar redirects, notice that keeping these redirects may lead to unnecessary confusion with 2025 Romanian presidential election.--Shamrockwikiedit (talk) 08:19, 20 January 2025 (UTC)
- Delete: there redirects were in place at a time when it was thought that the 2025 Romanian presidential election was going to be a re-run of the 2024 one (thus, part of the same process). It is now clear that these are to be treated as separate elections, so all redirects pointing to "2024/2025" (in any format) should be deleted to prevent any confusion.

- Baku-Grozny Flight Incident: Crash in Aktau (2024) → Azerbaijan Airlines Flight 8243 (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: //delete ]
This has multiple abnormal formatting issues, including at least two capitalization errors, the odd subtitle, and the use of both "incident" and "crash". Significa liberdade (she/her) (talk) 00:17, 13 January 2025 (UTC)
- Delete Bizarre formatting. The abnormally high pageview is likely due to the redirect having being a duplicate article before being BLARed. The main article is much more fleshed out so I don't think there is anything in the page history worth keeping. Ca talk to me! 07:37, 13 January 2025 (UTC)
- Not sure of action - Looking back, it seems that there were TWO articles created about the incident: first the "Azerbaijan Airlines Flight 8243" article on Dec 25 and then second the "Baku-Grozny Flight Incident: Crash in Aktau (2024)" article on Dec 27 . Over time, the first article was more comprehensive and so it made sense to merge the second article into the first article. After that, a redirect was set from the second page to the first page... which is the usual process I've seen. Now the question is about deleting the redirect from that second article. I guess my question is - can we tell how many external sites may link to the second article? If there are a number of sites that link to the second article, it may make sense to keep the redirect so that people reading those articles do get to the latest info on Wikipedia. If very few people linked to it, then deleting makes sense. - Dyork (talk) 14:54, 13 January 2025 (UTC)
- If the second article was merged, the redirect from it needs to remain for attribution. - The Bushranger One ping only 03:28, 22 January 2025 (UTC)

- Delete whilst he has played for Ireland U19 a few times [12], the target article does not have any mention of him. As no list article of the form List of Ireland under-19 cricketers exists, there is not a valid redirect target.

- Soft retarget to wikt:you had one job as my first choice. Seems like a plausible search term, but we don't have an article on this phrase like we do for other idioms, so the best source of information to the user would be wiktionary. Deletion would be my distant second choice. Fieari (talk) 01:39, 22 January 2025 (UTC)
