The creation of a redirect was due to the fact that racing venues usually are more lasting than their counterpart events (due to sponsors, category-changes, oil crisis).

• Make America Rock Again → Make America Great Again  (talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure: //delete ] 

No mention of "rock" at the target article. Apparently fails WP:NTOURS since its exception, and was the subject of a BLAR last year because of it. So it seems like there likely won't be an article at this title possibly based on such. But I come here instead of AfDing as there's many mentions of this tour across Wikipedia, and doesn't feel like a helpful redirect in its current state, but maybe something else makes more sense?

It should be noted that this'll be my last nomination for my editing session: when I started drafting this nomination I wrote "no mention of "BLAR" at the target article".

• Thiolester → Thioester  (talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure: //delete ] 

Acknowledging that I'm way out of my depth with chemistry, this seems to be a sort of sub-topicky thing that's not discussed at the target, rather than a UK/US spelling difference as the creator implies in their edit summary. For example:

• [1]: "‘thioester’ will be used as a general term for sulfur-containing esters, whereas the terms ‘thiolester’[...] will be used when specifically indicating one of the

structures..."

• [2] "When in formula 1 Z is an alkyl or aryl group and Y55O, the term thiolester may be used."

Cremastra (u — c) 14:02, 11 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep. Hi, you're right, it is indeed not a UK/US spelling thing, and I learned the correct interpetation upon reading your references. But I'd vote to keep the redirect, as the current Wikipedia Thioester page does not use the interpretation that "thiolester" is a subset of "thioester" - it just ignores the terminology thiolester altogether, which is what the vast majority of folks do, even when writing in contrast with other things like thionoesters and dithioesters. Overall, thiolester is just an exceedingly rate term. In my literature library, I have 1700 papers that use thioester (in pedantic meaning, "thiolester" structures), 30 that use thiolester. P.S. the existing redirect page at Dithioester to Dithiocarboxylic acid is perhaps more problematic as an ester (with thiols or not) is not synonymous to a carboxylic acid.

• Kappi → Pekko Käppi  (talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure: //delete ] 

Per a recent RM at Kappi Plateau, there seems to be no real consensus on what to do with this redirect, as all of Pekko Käppi (the current target), Kepi and the Kappi Plateau seemed to be options, along with disambiguation between them (which is what I would tentatively support).

• Keep I believe consensus was roughly to keep this current redirect, add a hatnote to the recently moved page. It’s too early to really compare for the purposes of a primary redirect. I think revisiting either a full DAB or a primary redirect to the plateau should be done sometime a few months from now. And therefore maintain the status quo. TiggerJay (talk) 05:28, 19 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

• Retarget to Kepi. A few days ago I created Käppi as a redirect to Kepi. "Käppi" is the original form of the name of the hat (see de:Käppi) and a term still widely used in the Swiss military. I think this usage is far more notable than the Finnish musician Pekko Käppi. After this is retargeted, Pekko Käppi and the Kappi Plateau should be added to a new Kappi (disambiguation) page, and that page listed in the see also of Kepi (disambiguation) and added to the hatnote of Kepi, so that readers sent to the hat article can still find the other two. Toadspike [Talk] 09:07, 19 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
• Disambiguate. Since there is some ambiguity, Kappi should not redirect to Pekko Käppi because "ä" in Finnish isn't just a letter with an accent, it's a separate letter, so Pekko Käppi shouldn't be a primary topic. Kepi isn't the primary topic either. I've drafted a disambiguation page. Shhhnotsoloud (talk) 10:43, 19 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

• Retarget to Kepi seems to be a good option for now as Käppi already redirects there. In the end there should be a proper disambiguation page listing all the possible meaning.s JIP | Talk 10:42, 19 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

• Disambiguate. If there is one thing the discussion here and at Talk:Kappi_Plateau#Requested move 2 December 2024 show is that there is plenty of ambiguity. Gjs238 (talk) 00:56, 20 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
• Disambiguation seems sensible, this term is unlikely to be strongly associated with any of these destinations by the average reader. --Joy (talk) 08:56, 20 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

• Shady job → Yami Baito  (talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure: //delete ] 

General term that shouldn't redirect to this particular form of shady job. Quick google suggests vast majority of English usage isn't referring to the Japanese concept. Rusalkii (talk) 02:30, 4 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hello.

The reason I created the redirect from Shady job to Yami Baito is that in the Japanese version of article , it was written as (英:Shady job). I was going to suggest renaming the article, but as I usually use the Japanese version, I did not know how to suggest renaming the English version, so I created the redirect.

Since the other party's opinion stated that it was about Japan, I would appreciate it if you could suggest renaming it to "Shady job in Japan".

Thank you.--Tomo.s.429 (talk) 05:00, 4 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

"Shady job in Japan" doesn't have as much of an ambiguity problem, but if you do a search there are only three results, and none of them refer to Yami Baito. I don't think the article should be renamed, since it looks like English-language articles use the term "yami baito" without translating. Rusalkii (talk) 19:22, 7 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete per nom, and subsequent explanation as to why it is generic and not relative to Japan. Jay 💬 11:21, 11 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
• Convert to soft redirect to Wiktionary yami baito. "Shady job" is not really an English-lang idiom—a term whose meaning is more than the literal sum-of-its-parts. A typical native en speaker "gets" that "shady job", outside of the Japanese context, just means "a job which is shady". However the translated term from Japanese is idiomatic: "a fraudlent job offer, or an offer of a job involving criminal acts, which persons typically are recruited for online, particularly on social media, with alluring promises of lucrative compensation for easy work". (The literal translation from Japanese is "dark part-time job": see entry. "Yami" means "dark" with much the same semantic range as English "dark", both literally "the absence of light" as well as the various figurative meanings of "distasteful", "concealed", "perilous" etc.)

Also if I'm not mistaken, Yami Baito ought to be moved to Yami baito per WP:TITLECASE. --Slowking Man (talk) 05:00, 13 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete This is WP:OR. No evidence that yami baito is translated as "shady job". Also, not mentioned at the target. Paradoctor (talk) 11:53, 13 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

  Here are a couple I found, including from NHK: [4] [5] --Slowking Man (talk) 23:46, 13 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

  Nope. Both articles use "shady job" merely as shorthand for "shady part-time job". When yami baito is mentioned, it is always translated as "shady part-time job". Paradoctor (talk) 03:15, 14 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

  I mean, I don't disagree that they repeatedly use the phrasing "shady job", with the contextual understanding that the more complete phrasing is "shady part-time job". But dropping parts of phrases to shorten them, and use of the contracted varieties in preference to the full uncontracted phrase, is quite common in English. One random example that comes to mind: "to eat one's own dog food" getting frequently contracted to just "dogfooding" or "dog-food": "we're dog-fooding that product on a regular basis". I am skeptical that people are overly concerned about observing a strict distinction between part-time and full-time work, when employing an idiom taken from a foreign language. --Slowking Man (talk) 08:27, 14 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

  That argument requires that "shady job" is used alone in some of the sources, independent of "shady part-time job", like "dogfooding" and "dog-food" are. Otherwise it is no more than local shorthand. I couldn't find any, maybe you can?

  The only evidence we have right now is an unsourced claim in the Japanese Wikipedia that "shady job" is the English translation of 闇バイト: (やみバイト, 英:shady job). From what I've seen, this is in error. Paradoctor (talk) 14:34, 14 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
