Inter-presidency of Donald Trump

[edit]

Too many levels of "huh?" going on here to know what is going on, including the double section redirect target and the lack of this term being in the target article. Steel1943 (talk) 22:12, 31 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: I reverted this edit by Lazesusdasiru to retarget the redirect to Donald Trump#Inter-presidency (2021–2025). (My revert was solely to enforce not changing the target during an ongoing RfD and does not reflect whether or not I support or oppose the edit.) Steel1943 (talk) 23:05, 20 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Individual 1

[edit]

Not mentioned in the target article, and the target section does not exist (anymore). My first consideration was to "refine" to Donald Trump#Mueller investigation since they seems to be what the current target is meant to refer, but the issue of the redirects not being mentioned in the target article still exists. Other options I found were the articles Mueller special counsel investigation and Mueller report, but the redirects do not seem to be mentioned there either. However, this is an alternative name that has several sources ... not sure what the best path is here, but my thoughts are, in order of preference, delete (due to lack of mention), retarget to Donald Trump (remove the section redirect), retarget to Donald Trump#Muller investigation (but it's not mentioned there), or retarget to Mueller special counsel investigation and Mueller report (no mention at either one, my stance is equal on both).

ready mixed

[edit]

was about to retarget the "mixed" redirects to heavy mix concrete, but results, at least on my end, were a little torn between concrete and mortar. admittedly on the extremely weak end of noms since concrete was still a primary enough topic and the article on mortar doesn't mention its ready mix flavor, but i'm pretty sure i'm missing something consarn (speak evil) (see evil) 20:28, 10 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Soyjak.party

[edit]

Retarget to Wojak#Soyjak or Delete. Been looking into this thing, it's mentioned on my proposed target, and seems more relevant there than here. It's talked about on Twitter and 4chan to some degree from my research, so people might search it here. Possible deletion as the topic appears to be connected to some disruptive editing, the creator of this very redirect, for example. Maybe having nothing (similar to our policy regarding a certain webcomic artist) would be better. Either way I doubt the status quo of this redirect is the best way to go about things. -Samoht27 (talk) 22:39, 25 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

five gallon bucket

[edit]

only mentioned in the name of one external link, which i'm honestly not entirely sure isn't spam. five-gallon bucket was an article until 2011, and it surprisingly had some sources, but i think those should be stashed somewhere for later use and the title returned to red as malformed and burgerland-centric, assuming the sources are usable in the first place consarn (speak evil) (see evil) 16:59, 7 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I might tbh, it's a pretty important cultural symbol potentially. Utopes (talk / cont) 06:43, 20 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
I wasn't expecting to be convinced by this argument, but having googled various bucket sizes (forgive me, I have no earthly idea how big a gallon is), I agree that this is The One True Bucket. They even sell them in Canada, a country that is ostensibly on the metric system, as "5-Gal/19-L" buckets. -- asilvering (talk) 03:02, 24 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

P:

[edit]

Probably not useful as an open-ended redirect when no article title is given for it. There are mainspace articles such as P:Machinery and P:ano that could have very well been sought, but instead these two characters (which would otherwise indicate portalspace if a portal's name was given to them), take readers to a portal of its own choosing. People looking for portals using the P: pseudo-namespace, can do so by typing in "P:", followed by the name of the portal they were after. I'm not convinced an "empty"-titled redirect is going to be of much use here. Targeting P seems more useful, if it targets anything. This one doesn't even point to portal space. Utopes (talk / cont) 14:25, 9 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Keep – I don't follow your reasoning. It's not for users looking for a specific portal, and it doesn't take users to a portal of its own choosing. It's a shortcut to portal space, and while it doesn't technically go to a portal space page, it goes to the contents for portal pages. Whether that's the best use for P: (as opposed to going to P (disambiguation)), I don't know, but it does make sense as a shortcut. Mclay1 (talk) 01:36, 10 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
A shortcut to portalspace is good. I'm just not convinced that people who type in one singular alphabet character and a punctuation is looking for information on portals. Because all articles have a title, there is nothing specified after the "P:" so there is never any assurance that a portal is being sought after. And PNRs are not widely known about to our general reader-base, and especially so as this PNR is just the letter "P", so I don't think there's an automatic assumption here that adding a punctuation to this letter "P" would take someone to Wikipedia:Contents/Portals. We try to keep a barrier up to prevent readers from falling into the backrooms while navigating the encyclopedia. Wikipedia:Contents/Portals already has P:CP and P:PORT. P:P doesn't exist but perhaps it should in place of this titleless pseudo-namespace redirect for the simplest trapdoor people can fall into without catching innocent reading passerbys who were on their way to the P:ano content article but hit enter too early after the colon. Very plausible to type this in while looking for a mainspace title, which means that the search result should stay in mainspace and these two characters as a XNR is impeding that, imo. I'd suggest targeting P (disambiguation) where the portal page can very well be hatnoted. Utopes (talk / cont) 13:58, 11 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Violent Pornography

[edit]

Retarget to Section 63 of the Criminal Justice and Immigration Act 2008 in order to be consistent with Violent porn and Violent pornography. -Samoht27 (talk) 21:53, 25 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Dog poop

[edit]

I feel that there should be an article specifically about dog poop rather than redirecting to the page feces (that article is about feces in general). There are standalone articles specifically about the feces of a specific animal, including Human feces, Cow dung, and Manure. style="color #964b00 Cyber the tiger🐯 (talk) 21:42, 25 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Comment, Dog Poo is currently its own redirect, leading to List of South Park characters. If we expand the Dog poop redirect to be a full article, i'd recommending retargeting Dog Poo to the new article. -Samoht27 (talk) 22:00, 25 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

James logan elementry school

[edit]

Unlikely misspelling with near zero usage[4]. If kept, redirect to James Logan Elementary School instead. मल्ल (talk) 20:15, 25 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Delete: I doubt this will ever see much use even if retargeted. UndeadAnarchy (talk) 09:04, 26 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
[edit]

Not mentioned in target. Google search gives a bunch of headlines like "Company and Naver Enter Agreement..." and also typos for "never enter", so if this is an actual subunit of the company I cannot find any evidence of it. Rusalkii (talk) 19:58, 25 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

That is a name of the real website run by Naver. It's a new aggregator. https://m.entertain.naver.com/ Emiya Mulzomdao (talk) 00:16, 26 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Synthetic music

I don't think this is what most readers would be looking for. 1234qwer1234qwer4 19:00, 25 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Marplan

[edit]

No mention at target. Isocarboxazid an antidepressant drug currently being sold under the brand name Marplan seems more appropriate. UndeadAnarchy (talk) 13:07, 25 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

List of Orange Islands Gym Leaders

[edit]

There is not a list of Orange Islands Gym Leaders at the target. Furthermore "Orange Islands" is not actually mentioned at the target in any capacity, or at least no longer, nor are any of the (presumably) five gym leaders associated with Orange Islands discussed here either.

Rebecca Scofield

[edit]

This should be deleted. Rebecca Scofield was falsely accused of being involved in this crime which is the subject of the article to which it redirects and won a defamation suit over that accusation. She also (appropriately) isn't mentioned (whether by name or otherwise) in the article to which it redirects. Dennis C. Abrams (talk) 15:08, 13 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Support - If the false accusation isn't notable enough to be mentioned in the article, there is no point in having a redirect. (However, I do not think mentioning her in the article is entirely out of the question, simply because it was a false accusation; even false accusations can be notable, as in the Dreyfuss affair. I have no opinion about the notability in this particular case.) (talk) 15:26, 13 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Macguide

[edit]

No mention of "Guide" at the target article. Apparently used to be an article about the "MacGuide Magazine" but redirecting a specific magazine name to the general article about the apple community is not going to be helpful for readers who are left without context on why they ended up at the place they did.

122333221

[edit]

And any similar redirects by the same creator. This is not useful whatsoever—and I'm not sure why User:JonRichfield marked it as reviewed? Remsense ‥  09:19, 25 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I don't understand about having marked it as reviewed; I am not aware of having done so. I accidentally created it with an error, then corrected it as a #redirect.
That was all.
As for why I created the redirect at all, I had the choice of giving it an article of its own, or redirecting it to the current target article. Since I can offhand think of nothing else special to say about the number, I did not elect to give it an article of its own. If anyone can think of extra points of interest, it would be easy to change the entry, in which case it would merit the same treatment as any other number of interest, of which there are many articles in WP.
Meanwhile, the cost of retaining it as a redir is trivial, and no one is likely to find himself discomfited by looking it up by accident.
I had considered a similar redir or article for 1223334444555554444333221, which does have the extra point of interest that it is the largest such number, the other two being 11 and 122333221. But I have not decided yet. JonRichfield (talk) 10:38, 25 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia:BRRRRRD

[edit]

At Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion/Log/2024 May 10#WP:BRRRD, the proposal to retarget did not see much discussion. I think it is more funny to retarget to WP:Edit warring.
