April 9[edit]

This is a list of redirects that have been proposed for deletion or other action on April 9, 2017.

Template:Don't use econlib.org, use Wikisource[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.
The result of the discussion was Procedural close. Since the nominated redirect's target is currently nominated for deletion (Wikipedia:Templates for discussion/Log/2017 April 9#Template:Don't use econlib.org, use Wikisource instead), if that template is deleted, this redirect will be eligible for deletion per speedy deletion criterion G8. Since the rationale behind the redirect's nomination is essentially that it should be deleted if its target is deleted, the consensus to delete this redirect is exclusively tied to the fate of its target, and thus, discussion that will lead to this redirect's deletion should occur at the aforementioned WP:TFD discussion to delete its target.

Nominating along with Template:Don't use econlib.org, use Wikisource instead. The first template redirects at second template with no content. Marvellous Spider-Man 13:57, 9 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • I'm not sure I see the point of this nomination. The target of this redirect is currently at TfD. If it gets deleted, the redirect would then get deleted as well per WP:G8. If it is kept, then this redirect should be kept as a sensible shortcut. – Uanfala (talk) 19:59, 9 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Agreed. — Godsy (TALKCONT) 09:38, 10 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Well, the point is that the template is crap, so we don;t need a redirect to a crap template. DELETE. Beyond My Ken (talk) 23:59, 9 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete Redirects or templates that name a spammed and blacklisted website are not helpful. Johnuniq (talk) 02:08, 10 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • It is not a question of it being eligible. It will go because if the target goes, the redirect goes with it. That is your grounds for procedural close, but then, there is no use to "waste our time with it", as another regular admin commented here about one I brought not so long ago.
