8=D~[edit]

I do not believe this redirect is appropriate. While I believe it was created in good faith (based on edit summary), I do not think someone is going to put this in the search bar to find the Penis article. Borderline CSD R3. NickContact/Contribs 23:49, 27 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. The sea is not specifically Thai enough to warrant this redirect. Gorobay (talk) 21:37, 27 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete native English topic, no need for a non-English redirect ; WP:NOTDIC, wikipedia is not a translation dictionary -- 65.92.180.137 (talk) 01:18, 28 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete because Wikipedia is not a translation dictionary. --Metropolitan90 (talk) 02:09, 28 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete per nom.--Lenticel (talk) 09:01, 1 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was delete all. JohnCD (talk) 22:00, 6 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

These should be deleted as they appears to be unrelated to the target articles. Palfania is listed in List of fictional countries but without a definition, the others are possibly surnames but have no mention in Wikipedia. Peter James (talk) 18:48, 27 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I removed Palfania from the list of fictional countries - it appears to be a country someone created on NationStates - not notable. Peter James (talk) 19:28, 27 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was retarget to Barbie Girl. JohnCD (talk) 21:51, 6 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Unrelated to Nikki Minaj, the Aqua song would be a much more likely topic, since it's a lyric there, and the Barbie toys continuum or fictional world would be even more likely. 65.92.180.137 (talk) 04:01, 27 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Comment This is an non notable mixtape by Nicki Minaj (making this related to Nicki Minaj) which redirects to [[Nicki Minaj] not Nikki Minaj which in the end redirects to the former. — DivaKnockouts 04:17, 27 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
'Comment' nomination repaired.-- 65.92.180.137 (talk) 04:35, 27 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete per nom; I also thought first of the Aqua song. We could just redirect to Barbie and call it a day. But deletion seems like the most straightforward option. --BDD (talk) 17:26, 27 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • Retarget to Barbie Girl, the above-mentioned song. The phrase is very prominent in the song and I would expect that some people think that's the name of the song. Ego White Tray (talk) 03:57, 1 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • Retarget somewhere. Barbie Girl isn't perfect but is acceptable. Playscale is another possibility, although maybe not quite as good? Thryduulf (talk) 11:29, 2 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was delete all. JohnCD (talk) 21:50, 6 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Delete The rotating username of a seemingly Kazakh editor who makes a new user name every few weeks to create new redirects needs attention of administrators. These redirects from languages unrelated to their targets need deletion, per the various precedents of last year ie 1,2 -- 65.92.180.137 (talk) 03:52, 27 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

No apparent reason for this redirect; the term is not used in this sense. DGG ( talk ) 00:46, 27 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

  • delete This seems to have been created to promote some homeschooling materials which never caught hold, before it was redirected. Searches show a conspicuously scattershot set of results indicating that the term is used generically and indeed as a kind of educationspeak boilerplate. There's no particular target we can assign for this. Mangoe (talk) 13:49, 28 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
