WP:Cross-namespace redirects indicates that "the general consensus seems to be that most newly created cross-namespace redirects from the main (article) namespace to the Wikipedia (project) namespace should be deleted", and in this case I agree. I think a reader accidentally "falling through the cracks" onto the humour page would violate Principle of least astonishment. –xenotalk 23:30, 5 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete all per nomination. —CX Zoom[he/him] (let's talk • {C•X}) 07:49, 6 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete all. The cross-namespace redirects to project space that get consensus to keep are (almost) all those which are helpful for very new users who we can't be certain understand namespaces yet. The concept of talk page stalkers is not one that falls into that category. Thryduulf (talk) 07:57, 6 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete all per Thryduulf. Frankly, there's a speedy deletion criterion for this sort of thing, so WP:IAR keeping these sorts of things requires a very good reason. — Red-tailed hawk (nest) 13:59, 6 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
- Article to Wikipedia: redirects are explicitly excluded from the speedy deletion criterion (R2) so there is no IAR involved. Thryduulf (talk) 14:41, 6 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

This appears to be a misspelling of the genetive form of the Swedish name for Sweden (Sveriges). It's received only 2 views this year, which backs up Google results that this isn't a common spelling error. Thryduulf (talk) 21:59, 5 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I don't quite understand this redirect, apparently http://www.totaljerkface.com is a source used for some citations on this article but I don't see the relevance of the term "Totaljerkface" to this game enough that readers would be using it to try to find this article. Liz Read! Talk! 21:10, 5 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment: Totaljerkface.com is the only website where the game is officially hosted (i.e. the game's official website). The site is operated by the game's developer (Fancy Force) and Happy Wheels is one of only two games on it. It also serves as the developer's blog, including updates for the game. I'm not sure whether the redirect has encyclopedic value but, if kept, Happy Wheels is the only plausible target as neither Fancy Force nor the other game (Divine Intervention) is notable. IceWelder [✉] 21:18, 5 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
- Oh, thanks IceWelder, I appreciate the explanation. That information should probably go into the article. I'll let this discussion run in case anyone thinks this is not a useful redirect to keep. Liz Read! Talk! 02:04, 6 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep. The official website for this game is listed in the article, albeit in the external links section. If we want to add the link to the infobox, we could, but I don't think that its current absence from the infobox affects my decision. — Red-tailed hawk (nest) 14:01, 6 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

This is a pantone color that was mentioned at blue but is not currently mentioned at blue other than a passing mention as the blue in the EU flag in a caption for the EU flag. There are a lot of other passing mentions of this color on wikipedia, but nothing that seems to actually describe the color. It seems like there should probably be a section added to Shades of blue called Reflex Blue, but it's not currently there. TartarTorte 19:25, 5 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Not mentioned at target. Page history has no significance. These never should have been made in the first place. Delete. TNstingray (talk) 17:24, 5 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete - a google search shows that this relates to a character featured only in fan fiction. Not mentioned at target and unhelpful. ‡ El cid, el campeador talk 18:17, 5 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete Jard Dooku (a character existing only on a Star Wars fanfiction wiki, whose redirect's history consists mainly of redirecting and re-redirecting), and slightly weak delete the other two per nom and El cid. Their supposed character, from whom Jard could possibly be a separate character, had an article created in June 2005 that would be merged to List of Star Wars Separatist characters on March 3 the next year (see its most developed version here), before he was removed December 10 and that would be retargeted in October 2008. Count Dooku's Clone has some history that might be worth preserving, but a lot of it is what appears to be some fans' (and supposedly historians') "[Dooku]'s just hiding [until Luke Skywalker or another Jedi from the New Order tracked him down and killed him]" theories, a claim that's pretty questionable. On a side note, Godsy, who targeted the non-Jard ones to their current target, might want to weigh in as well regarding these histories. Regards, SONIC678 06:05, 8 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

There's some usage of this term on social media, but it's not mentioned at the target and I can't find any usage in RS. Given that the original Operation Fredericus was a German campaign in WWII, I think it's a stretch to create this redirect in the absence of RS usage. signed, Rosguill talk 16:55, 5 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I don't see why these two are unambiguous if King's speech and King's Speech aren't. The first four entries at the DAB are all ambiguous under a queen as well. I would suggest we retarget to King's speech; would also be open to the converse move, moving King's speech to King's speech (disambiguation) and retargeting the two king titles to Speech from the throne. If anyone's interested in doing it that way, please tag King's Speech and leave a note at Talk:King's speech. (Stray thought, probably best answered at WT:RfD: Should there be a "This DAB is implicated by an ongoing RfD" template?) -- Tamzin[cetacean needed] (she|they|xe) 14:53, 21 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

- Keep. I agree with Shhhnotsoloud that the speech from the throne is the primary topic for this search term in both capitalisations. This implies nothing about the primary topic for different search terms such as King's Speech (about which I don't currently have an opinion, other than there is no reason it has to be the same as these).

- Keep per Shhhnotsoloud - I agree that Speech from the throne is the primary topic, and it probably would be for King's speech as well if it wasn't for the 2010 film. Hut 8.5 11:40, 6 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep. I agree with the above analysis that the WP:PTOPIC for "Queen's Speech" is indeed Speech from the Throne. With respect to "King's Speech", this is not so due to the 2010 blockbuster film being titled "The King's Speech" blocking anything from being the true primary topic. As the thrust of the nominator's argument relies upon an incorrect pure assumption that what is true of the male gendered term must imply that the same thing is true about the female gendered term, I see no persuasive reason to retarget the redirect. As such, keeping the redirect makes the most sense to me. — Red-tailed hawk (nest) 19:54, 7 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The concepts are not exclusive to their target, nor are the concepts exclusive to Computer mouse. (If the redirects were named "Left/Right mouse button", then they would be exclusive to Computer mouse.) There are many things that have a "left button" or a "right button" ... not just devices, but even clothes. Steel1943 (talk) 06:01, 5 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The article Primatology is on the study of primates, while the current redirect target is about a specific type of testing that is performed on primates. I think that this term better redirects to the more general article on the study of primates, so I propose that this be retargeted to primatology. — Red-tailed hawk (nest) 05:43, 5 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

There are many golden liquids and the term "golden liquid" is not mentioned at the target article. I'm honestly not sure that urine is the WP:PTOPIC for the topic "golden liquid'", so it might be better to dabify this or delete this outright if a dab is not going to be useful navigationally. — Red-tailed hawk (nest) 05:36, 5 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete Lager was my first thought, but searches here and at google show there is nothing even remotely resembling a primary topic and a list of gold-coloured liquids would be indiscriminate. Thryduulf (talk) 10:42, 5 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The target is 1) in Project space and 2) contains less than a dozen names. I don't find this particularly useful. I don't see a better category. A list of given names is not very encyclopedic and can be found at other websites. Delete. MB 02:17, 28 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
