This is a list of redirects that have been proposed for deletion or other action on May 7, 2020.
Soviet Russia[edit]
- 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.
- Soviet Russia → Russian Soviet Federative Socialist Republic (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
Could also mean Soviet Union to millions of people. Therefore, disambiguate the redirect. Soumyabrata talk contribs subpages 06:29, 30 April 2020 (UTC)
- Retarget to Soviet Russia (disambiguation) and WP:ROBIN swap those two pages per WP:MALPLACED. There are several full-title matches, and none of them is either WP:PTOPIC or WP:PRIMARYREDIRECT. Narky Blert (talk) 13:44, 30 April 2020 (UTC)
- Keep, the current target is literally "Soviet Russia". It is better to give the correct target over an erroneous one. -- Tavix (talk) 16:30, 30 April 2020 (UTC)
- Keep. Soviet Russia is not Soviet Union regardless what ignorant millions think. For them, there is {{redirect}} placed on top of "Russian Soviet Federative Socialist Republic". Staszek Lem (talk) 19:43, 30 April 2020 (UTC)
- We are here to help the ignorant millions (among whom you can include me, because my immediate thought on seeing "Soviet Russia" is the USSR). Narky Blert (talk) 07:55, 1 May 2020 (UTC)
- Oppose turning into a dab page. Neutral on target (Russian SFSR vs. Soviet Union). Renata (talk)
- Retarget and swap: Setting aside the historical facts of the Soviet Union (which came after Soviet Russia, etc.), it was commonly, if incorrectly, called "Soviet Russia". Setting that aside, though, Narky Blert offers an ingenious and correct solution: the two pages (this one and the DAB) should be swapped to reduce further and continuing confusion. — Javert2113 (Siarad.|¤) 22:51, 30 April 2020 (UTC)
- Keep per Staszek Lem. There's already a notice on top of the current target for readers who meant to read the USSR. I think it's working well. --Pandakekok9 (talk) 07:55, 1 May 2020 (UTC)
- Comment. Check the incoming links, a good proportion of which relate to USSR not RSFSR. It is working very badly. Narky Blert (talk) 08:09, 1 May 2020 (UTC)
- Comment. A Century of Violence in Soviet Russia by Alexander N. Yakovlev, Soviet politician and historian, is about the Soviet Union. Narky Blert (talk) 08:03, 1 May 2020 (UTC)
- Keep. Russia was only one part of the Soviet Union. HotdogPi 21:33, 1 May 2020 (UTC)
- Disambiguate because there is no primary topic and to prevent erroneous incoming links. buidhe 08:30, 2 May 2020 (UTC)
Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, signed, Rosguill talk 22:36, 7 May 2020 (UTC)
- Keep since it already goes to the correct target. Hatnotes are the right way to unconfuse readers who might not understand a term. SpinningSpark 14:05, 9 May 2020 (UTC)
- Keep I don't disagree with the nominator's argument, but Soviet Union is always going to be linked in the lede of the target article. Sure, people will use "Soviet Russia" as shorthand for the whole USSR, whether out of ignorance or metonymy, but when we have an article on the actual Soviet Russia, that's the clear target. --BDD (talk) 19:01, 11 May 2020 (UTC)
- Keep For above reasons. Better to clear up this misunderstanding instead of being purposefully inaccurate. It should point to the Russian SFSR --Havsjö (talk) 11:00, 15 May 2020 (UTC)

Grandview Avenue[edit]
- 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.
- Grandview Avenue → Mount Washington, Pittsburgh (neighborhood) (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
Not mentioned at the target, a Google search returns results for Grandview Avenues elsewhere as well, with no obvious indication that the Mount Washington Grandview is more prominent. Delete unless a justification can be provided. signed, Rosguill talk 22:18, 7 May 2020 (UTC)
- Delete - not mentioned on target page and is too vague to be unique. I have to imagine there are other "Grandview Avenues". - Dyork (talk) 01:33, 8 May 2020 (UTC)
- Delete. This redirect is ambiguous and may cause confusion. Shhhnotsoloud (talk) 09:21, 8 May 2020 (UTC)

Gen W[edit]
- 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.
Not mentioned at the target. Searching online, this term seems to be used by a women's organization. While I can understand the logic of "the generation before X is W", there doesn't seem to be much evidence that this phrase is used this way. I would suggest deletion. signed, Rosguill talk 18:08, 27 April 2020 (UTC)
- Delete - Looks like an attempt to push a neologism without support. CoffeeWithMarkets (talk) 19:18, 27 April 2020 (UTC)
- I should add: the organization doesn't appear to be notable in my opinion, but I wouldn't object to somebody starting an article necessarily on it after deletion. CoffeeWithMarkets (talk) 19:26, 27 April 2020 (UTC)
- Delete. At first sight, I though it related to some general or other (Washington or Westmoreland, perhaps? I could see such an abbreviation being used in military correspondence). Narky Blert (talk) 10:18, 28 April 2020 (UTC)
- Delete There are indeed usages of this abbreviation in military correspondence ([1]). - CHAMPION (talk) (contributions) (logs) 01:09, 29 April 2020 (UTC)
- Keep. It's a rather clear {{R from incorrect name}} per an expected use of chronological order, given the targets that Gen X, Gen Y, and Gen Z target. If there are other encyclopedic targets which this term could refer, then create a disambiguation page over this redirect. Otherwise, this redirect is definitely a plausible search term for its target. Steel1943 (talk) 14:00, 29 April 2020 (UTC)
Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Deryck C. 21:20, 7 May 2020 (UTC)
- Delete - In searching, I've not found any references to using "Gen W" to point to Baby Boomers. As noted in previous comments, I have found uses pointing to women's organization. I agree with CoffeeWithMarkets above that it might actually make sense for the redirect to be deleted and someone to create an article about the Gen W organization. Regardless, I do think this redirect should be deleted. - Dyork (talk) 01:38, 8 May 2020 (UTC)
- Delete just because later generations have been identified by sources as X,Y and Z doesn’t automatically mean that the baby boomers are known as gen W and the fact that several people haven’t been able to find sources to that effect indicates that they aren’t known by that name.--69.157.252.96 (talk) 03:56, 9 May 2020 (UTC)
Delete especially that Generation W was deleted (Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion/Log/2020 April 9#Generation W). CrazyBoy826 (talk) 18:37, 9 May 2020 (UTC)- Actually, keep because someone who doesn't know much about generations would think that the previous was W because of X, Y, and Z. CrazyBoy826 (talk) 18:45, 9 May 2020 (UTC)
- We should still require evidence that the term is in use not simply that it could technically make sense. Also, I see the arguments that lead to the deletion of Generation W applying here.--69.157.252.96 (talk) 01:22, 10 May 2020 (UTC)
- Actually, keep because someone who doesn't know much about generations would think that the previous was W because of X, Y, and Z. CrazyBoy826 (talk) 18:45, 9 May 2020 (UTC)
- Delete as ambiguous (1 2). — J947 [cont] 02:40, 14 May 2020 (UTC)
- Delete since Generation W was deleted. Any keep !votes are fundamentally relitigating that RfD. * Pppery * it has begun... 02:58, 14 May 2020 (UTC)
- I disagree with this interpretation – the likely reason for the redirect wasn't raised in the previous discussion, this is a case of new information being brought up IMO. — J947 [cont] 04:30, 14 May 2020 (UTC)
- Looking at that nomination the nominator knew about the connect between the term and the Serbian War Generation so in this case it’s more likely the original nominator didn’t know this existed at the time.--69.157.252.96 (talk) 17:20, 14 May 2020 (UTC)

- The result of the discussion was retarget to Flag of the United States#"Flower Flag" arrives in Asia. (non-admin closure) buidhe 02:07, 16 May 2020 (UTC)
This redirect is in Chinese. There have been discussions about the redirects from foreign languages such as Spanish and French and the consensus seems to be that the languages have a significant history in the country. I'm not sure Chinese does as well. Interstellarity (talk) 19:22, 25 April 2020 (UTC)
Keep. WP:RFOREIGN is satisfied by Chinese language in the United States. -- Tavix (talk) 21:00, 25 April 2020 (UTC)- Retarget to Flag of the United States#"Flower Flag" arrives in Asia, currently the only place in article space which actually explains the origin of the term 美國. Compare, e.g. Brahmadesh & Miandian → Names of Myanmar, 越南 & ベトナム (see RfD) → Names of Vietnam, Shendu → Names of India, or Rìběn & Jepang → Names of Japan (where those terms appear and are explained) rather than Myanmar/Vietnam/India/Japan (where they are only minimally or not-at-all mentioned). I also added 美國 (the traditional Chinese characters form of the nominated redirect) to this discussion., 59.149.124.29 (talk) 01:33, 26 April 2020 (UTC)
- Retarget to Flag of the United States#"Flower Flag" arrives in Asia. Good find. feminist #WearAMask😷 02:48, 26 April 2020 (UTC)
- Keep - There are other language users on the site who sometimes type in other languages. Kori (@) 18:15, 26 April 2020 (UTC)
- See WP:FORRED for why we usually avoid foreign-language redirects. --Soumyabrata talk contribs subpages 05:01, 8 May 2020 (UTC)

- Barack Obamacare → Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
Unlikely incorrect name. TheAwesomeHwyh 18:19, 7 May 2020 (UTC)
- Keep. "It'll be what's known as Hillarycare or Barack Obamacare, or whatever you want to call it." -- Tavix (talk) 19:39, 7 May 2020 (UTC)
- Keep per Tavix. — J947 [cont] 21:31, 7 May 2020 (UTC)
- Delete - we already have the ubiquitous "ObamaCare" as a redirect. We don't need Barack added to the title. Google search results bring up less than 4,000 and most of those include the WP redirect and Barack Obama's name somewhere in the article. Not a good use of a redirect. Atsme Talk 📧 19:49, 8 May 2020 (UTC)
- Keep. I created this redirect since it may not be clear to some readers what the "Obama" in "ObamaCare" refers to. Yes, Obama is currently a WP:PRIMARYREDIRECT to Barack Obama, but Obama (disambiguation) also exists. For those who may not know who/what "Obama" refers to in this redirect, the deletion of this redirect may hinder their ability to find their intended target, and the deletion of this redirect does more harm than good. Also, please see Tavix's comment above citing the use of this redirect in at least one third party source. Steel1943 (talk) 01:06, 9 May 2020 (UTC)

Incorrect disambiguation and improbable typo. When I moved the page a while ago, I incorrectly disambiguated and put the wrong year. The link has only existed for two weeks and I hope to delete it. This one's on me. My bad. KingSkyLord (talk | contribs) 18:18, 7 May 2020 (UTC)

- Wikipedia:5C → Wikipedia:Basic copyediting (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
Unused redirect. Doesn't make sense in context. How is "5C" related to copy editing? – Jonesey95 (talk) 18:09, 7 May 2020 (UTC)
- Keep
Copyediting involves the "five Cs": making the article clear, correct, concise, comprehensible, and consistent
* Pppery * it has begun... 18:10, 7 May 2020 (UTC)- I guess, but I have been a coordinator for the Guild of Copy Editors for seven years, and I can't recall anyone ever writing "5C" or asking for a 5C link. We already have "CE", which is a well known abbreviation that actually makes sense. In my experience, redirects are usually created because they are needed for some reason described at WP:RPURPOSE. I don't see that reason in evidence here. It's just unnecessary. – Jonesey95 (talk) 03:00, 8 May 2020 (UTC)
- @Jonesey95: Keep: "5C" stands for something that is said in the Wikipedia:Basic copyediting page:
Copyediting involves the "five Cs": making the article clear, correct, concise, comprehensible, and consistent.

This redirect points to a section of the target article that no longer exists. It was deleted as WP:OR some time ago. I've done a WP:BEFORE and can find no evidence of al-Kashi using this notation other than to say he used the sexagesimal system. It seems highly unlikely that he would mix Roman numerals with sexagesimal fractions as claimed by the deleted text. One third is, of course, a nice exact number in sexagesimal, but it is not a named angle in any system of measurement as far as I can tell. SpinningSpark 17:02, 7 May 2020 (UTC)
- Keep. These units definitely exist(ed) and have been in use in historical times. I have personally seen them being used in two archaic books. I still remember that I created those redirects with one of the books still in my hands to create "anchors" for these units, after I couldn't find them being covered in Wikipedia already. I also remember that I planned to do some further research on them to put them in better context on the target article, but then was carried away to work on something else.
- I don't know, if al-Kashi had anything to do with them, as you suggest above - the text that was removed in that article probably didn't exist back when I created those redirects. I will try to remember where exactly I saw them, but I don't know if I still have the references readily around to cite from. But I encourage other editors to search for this as well in historical sources, there must be more sources in existence than those I had available.
- Regarding notation, from the back of my head, I can confirm 1III for a third, but I can't remember the symbol used for fourth. The deleted portion in that article suggested 1IV, whereas I vaguely recall (but could be wrong on this) that 1IIII was used in the sources I saw - this needs to be sorted out.
- In general, I think, it would have been a better sign of collaborative editing to bring this up on a talk page and collectively try to fill this void in the encyclopedia, rather than to nominate something for deletion.
- --Matthiaspaul (talk) 19:48, 7 May 2020 (UTC)
- There is no point having redirects pointing to a page that does not have any information. In fact it is confusing and frustrating for the reader. If you want to create something, then fine, I'll withdraw, but not while nothing exists. SpinningSpark 21:53, 7 May 2020 (UTC)
- Not the book I had in my hands, but here is an example of that notation in a book by Al-Biruni, originally published in 1000: Al-Biruni (1879) [1000]. The Chronology of Ancient Nations. Translated by Sachau, C. Edward. pp. 147–149.
- --Matthiaspaul (talk) 00:19, 8 May 2020 (UTC)
- My apologies and I withdraw the nomination, I forgot to take my anti-senility pill this morning. For some reason, I completely misread the removed text as saying a third of a minute, rather than a sixtieth of a second. Which of course now makes perfect sense. So now I think the deleted text should be restored so the redirects actually have a target. At least this has highlighted that some useful text was removed from the article.

- Cory Finley → Thoroughbreds (2017 film) (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
There is currently a redirect from Cory Finley to Thoroughbreds (2017 film). Finley also directed Bad Education (2019 film). There is currently a draft biography of a living person stub, Draft:Cory Finley, in Articles for Creation, pending review. This is a request to delete the redirect in order to accept the draft. This is a non-obvious notability question because Finley is a director rather than an actor. The acting notability guideline includes actors who have performed in multiple roles in notable films. Directors are covered by the guideline for creative professionals, which does not contain a multiple films provision. Perhaps such a provision was intended and should be added. In any case, the purpose of this request is to obtain a rough consensus from the community to delete the existing redirect and accept the draft. Robert McClenon (talk) 15:36, 7 May 2020 (UTC)
- Delete to encourage article creation. Shhhnotsoloud (talk) 09:23, 8 May 2020 (UTC)
- I have marked this page with a speedy G6 tag. This is a non-controversial delete to make way for a move from Draft space. The Draft article has been approved for moving. – Jonesey95 (talk) 18:03, 8 May 2020 (UTC)

- Comment. Now moot, but (1) if he's notable, he deserves an article, and (2) if he isn't, the redirect gets in the way of the search tool. Narky Blert (talk) 12:52, 9 May 2020 (UTC)

Keep. So now we're calling one missed letter implausible? Completely useless to delete; K4 applies too. — J947 [cont] 04:14, 7 May 2020 (UTC)- Yes, we are. See Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion/Log/2020 April 21#Fooball and fooballers. Narky Blert (talk) 10:09, 7 May 2020 (UTC)
- . . . especially given that Fooball does not seem to be at all plausible. UnitedStatesian (talk) 20:13, 7 May 2020 (UTC)

- Delete, as research has confirmed that North Dakota State does not have a fooball team. BD2412 T 01:53, 8 May 2020 (UTC)
- @BD2412: American football, though. — J947 [cont] 02:46, 8 May 2020 (UTC)

redundant double WP, not really needed. Just 18 views in the past 4 years, but the Wikipedia:WP: really messes things up. Eumat114 formerly TLOM (Message) 01:57, 7 May 2020 (UTC)
- @Eumat114: How does it mess things up? — J947 [cont] 02:19, 7 May 2020 (UTC)
- @J947: the WP:WP:... just seems disruptive and is not needed as well. Eumat114 formerly TLOM (Message) 02:27, 7 May 2020 (UTC)
- @Eumat114: It's a mistake; a mistake that is useless to delete and would break links if done so.
Unneeded
is not a valid reason to delete a redirect. Also, read MOS:LISTGAP. — J947 [cont] 02:32, 7 May 2020 (UTC)

- Weak delete, there are many similar redirects which have the double WP, (e. g. WP:WP, Wikipedia:WP DAB). Though it does have very few pageviews, so I personally don't see how keeping this could be useful. The broken links are not a major issue since they can all be fixed manually.

- Delete. The 2nd WP isn't a problem, it's standard for redirects to WikiProjects. The duplicate colon is the problem. Narky Blert (talk) 10:01, 7 May 2020 (UTC)
- Delete per Narky Blert. — Godsy (TALKCONT) 03:51, 8 May 2020 (UTC)
