  • Delete Search seems to lead me back in one way or the other to the moved article or this redirect, and whilst that dynasty seems to have been at war a lot, we shouldn't propagate this furher.--Tikiwont (talk) 20:06, 11 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Delete WP:HOAX violation. Linking celebrity names to a fabricated album ([2]) and why the person (458Army (talk · contribs)) redirected it to the WWE is beyond me. This also isn't my first time dealing with this person creating a hoax album, who previously used a different username (BeanyFans (talk · contribs) [3]).

Delete. Unnecessary. No longer needed. Unlikely search term. -- Alan Liefting (talk - contribs) 00:46, 2 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep harmless and required for attribution purposes as this was the original article location. The article was at this title from January 2011 until a few days ago so it will remain a useful redirect from search engines, slow mirrors, bookmarks, etc, for some time to come. Thryduulf (talk) 07:02, 2 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep plausible search term, useful for navigation, no rationale for deletion presented. WilyD 09:42, 3 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]
    • Actually, being an unlikely search term is a reason to delete a redirect (See for example Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion/Log/2012 August 22#People from other walks of their life who is also are aviators), and were it not for the article previously being at this title this would be one. Equally, "no longer needed" is a reason to delete some redirects (most commonly redirects from userspace caused by moving a draft article to the main namespace), although this redirect is still needed. You need to learn to distinguish between "no rationale given", "rationale given does not apply here" and "I disagree with the rationale given" as all three are different and this is not the first time you have confused them.

Delete since both North Korea and South Korea now compete at the paralympics.— Preceding unsigned comment added by Darrelljon (talkcontribs) 18:45, 2 September 2012‎

  • Disambiguate. The title has existed since early 2010 and so is likely to have plenty of incoming external links and it was viewed 17 times last month and 9 times in July showing that it is actually used. You are correct that the current target is wrong, but North Korea would equally be so. Fortunately disambiguation pages exist for situations exactly like this.

  • Disambiguate per Thryduulf -- 76.65.128.252 (talk) 06:28, 3 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]
