Antarctic Fluffball[edit]

The result of the discussion was delete. JohnCD (talk) 10:25, 18 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Unlikely search term. /ƒETCHCOMMS/ 20:10, 5 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete, possibly speedily under G2. I find no non-wikipedia sources that even mention the phrase "antarctic fluffball", much less which substantiate it as a synonym for "penguin". The user who created this redirect had a very thin editing history and shows no signs of returning to the project. I don't see a clear pattern of vandalism that would support a G3 speedy but I do see a number of edits in the new-user pattern. This strikes me as a "can I create a redirect" variant of the same.

  • Delete cute but unlikely.--Lenticel (talk) 03:27, 6 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete Truly unused. See Google [1]Tideflat (talk) 22:28, 8 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete - funny but...just no. CyanGardevoir (used EDIT!) 04:46, 15 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

A user template was created in the Wikipedia namespace for WP NIH. I moved it to Template namespace and fixed all the user template usage to the new template. Recommend deleting this link Kumioko (talk) 18:18, 5 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

  • The edit history shows that this redirect was created after a user created a forked article, innocently from what I can tell. Redirect to resolve a fork and to politely point the editor to the page where his/her contributions will be appreciated are entirely appropriate. I see no potential for confusion or controversy over this redirect. The inclusion or omission of a colon in the title of a game is an entirely plausible redirect. (In fact, if the target article's content is correct, the title for the article should include the colon.) Keep with the qualifier that a temporary delete to enable pagemove may become appropriate when the game is finally released. Rossami (talk) 17:45, 5 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
    • The original article now at Luigi's Mansion Dark Moon has been blanked so the info should be restored there since that article has the established history. The second article should be merged with the first and if someone thins that the : should be added they can use the requested moves procedure. Either way the original edit history needs to be preserved.--174.93.167.177 (talk) 21:33, 5 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
      • The cut-and-paste pagemove has now been reverted on both pages. Cut-and-paste creates all sorts of problems for our compliance with the attribution requirements of GFDL and CC-BY-SA. Those wanting to rename the page should get consensus that the page should be moved, then ask for help to do it properly via the pagemove function. Cut-and-paste is evil. Thanks. Rossami (talk) 21:42, 5 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  • I really don't believe this is the correct process for doing this as it's an uncontroversial speedy deletion covered by Template:db-move. In any case, I created the article with the colon, not realizing that a non-colon version existed. I wrote a small amount of content on the colon version but I'm fine with it being overwritten. All I want is for the non-hyphen version (with the content) to be moved to the hyphen version (with the correct page name). This is very straightforward, and the page's creator (me) supports it.

No Reason for this Redirect ♠♥♣Shaun9876♠♥♣ Talk Email 16:48, 5 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

  • The redirect helps in clarifying the term "Plerogram", so it is needed. — Preceding unsigned comment added by El Roih (talk • contribs)
  • It's a specialized term that is discussed in the target section. What justification for deletion are you suggesting applies? Because several of the "keep" justifications appear to apply. Keep unless an actual reason to delete is offered. Rossami (talk) 17:49, 5 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Appears to misleading for those who use this template on the talk pages of IP addresses who are used to vandalize Wikipedia. Vandal IPs are not always shared IPs, they can also be owned by only one person. The converse is also true, shared IPs ae not necessarily vandal IPs, nor do they always have at least one edit that is vandalism. jfd34 (talk) 11:27, 5 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was Keep. The target was nominated at TfD, the discussion was closed as "no consensus". Thryduulf (talk) 15:11, 27 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Recommend delete. Unneeded redirect for a project thats been inactive since February 2010 anyway. Its also a rather implausible title so it probably won't be used anyway. Kumioko (talk) 00:27, 5 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

  • Close discussion and put the template for deletion instead. When the template is deleted, this redirect will be a speedy delete. D O N D E groovily Talk to me 03:06, 5 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose if the template is unneeded, nominate it for deletion. This redirect is perfectly reasonable, since it concerns a Wikipedia space topic. 70.24.251.208 (talk) 06:59, 5 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Recommend delete. Uneeded redirect for a project that is only semi active anyway. Its also a rather implausible title so it probably won't be used anyway. Kumioko (talk) 00:27, 5 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
