This was originally a copy (not an exact copy) of the article at Arella with a random x added to the title, that was inexplicably turned into a redirect. —Xezbeth (talk) 20:53, 21 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was delete. -- Tavix (talk) 20:36, 29 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Nominated for deletion. A GA nomination was erroneously created here, and I moved it to the correct page name. These redirects are now implausible typos. While it seems unlikely this article will need an 8th good article nomination, having these redirects pollutes search results by giving the misleading impression that 8 GA reviews were carried out for this article.

As a side note, link-wise, this is an extremely clean-cut deletion because they were never linked to; they weren't transcluded directly after the GA, but instead substituted, and {{Article history}} only had a link after I added it. Even if there were links, the deletion message will contain a link to this discussion, so such concerns would be unwarranted eπi (talk | contribs) 19:20, 21 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

FWIW, although I wrote the article, I've no idea how this redirect arose and no objection to its removal Jimfbleak - talk to me? 05:31, 22 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Speedy delete per G7 I see no reason why these redirects are needed to be kept and because the nominator is the sole author, I see no reason why it can't be speedy deleted. Dreamy Jazz 🎷 talk to me | my contributions 20:20, 28 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

This page has a chequered history as a (pseudo)-dab, redirect and now soft redirect. I suggest delete to leave a redlink as per Wholesome. Shhhnotsoloud (talk) 18:43, 21 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Bosque (programming language)[edit]

The result of the discussion was retarget to Microsoft and open source. (non-admin closure) B dash (talk) 01:17, 29 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Recently created redirect to the language's proponent, Microsoft, but no mention in that article. Would be better deleted than redirected to an article that does not discuss it, and any significant discussion there would be inappropriate. This is destined to be a useless and misleading redirect, and prevents a redlink that would encourage the article's creation if/when it justified.

See also comment on talk page: Talk:Bosque (programming language). TJRC (talk) 17:10, 21 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

That article doesn't really cover Bosque, though, does it? The only mention of Bosque is one bullet item in a short list of open-source projects. No coverage at all. TJRC (talk) 03:17, 22 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]
The (sourced) listing is sufficient to justify the redirect. czar 09:58, 23 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Retarget or Draftify: I observe Czar is the author of the target and is not requiring all members of the list to have articles. I'd also note Bosque appears to be a new kid on the block and may or may not sustain. may be WP:TOOSOON. directing to Micorsoft was too big a WP:SURPRISE. I think I'd prefer draftify initially to try to develop more substantial underlying article, even if that effort was to be redirected on return to mainspace. It's a fine balance. It redirecting goto Microsoft and open source#Products.Djm-leighpark (talk) 12:06, 22 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]
I'd go with Draftify as between these two options. Microsoft and open source#Products has only three words on Bosque: "Bosque programming language". Not even a complete sentence. A reader is not well-served by being redirected there.
Move it to Draft and if the notability of the language can be established, it can be moved to mainspace. TJRC (talk) 19:46, 23 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

What about to write an extremly short article about that language, using the same effort as above but instead of wasting the effort for discussing whether where to redirect or not to redirect the article.

SAY: "(1) Bosque is a general purpose programming language without loops, mutable state and reference equalities. (2) It's syntax and types are inspired by TypeScript. (3) It's semantics is coming from ML and Node/JavaScript. (4) This language is the brainchild of Mark Marron, a computer scientist at Microsoft. (5) There is a GitHub repo under the subtree "Microsoft". [1] See more information there."

Anyways, I suggest to refrain from evaluating the language Bosque in any manner, since MicroSoft has the right to have a good image. It is a clear message, that nobody from MicroSoft culture is writing here any word into the article about this language.

If you believe you can establish notability for the programming language, go for it. I'm not certain it's notable given the very little coverage it's gotten; it may sink without a trace, some things like this do. A github repository is not enough to establish notability, and that seems to be the most prominent source. I've seen a little bit of news coverage, but WP:NOTNEWS, and what I've seen does not appear to establish notability. TJRC (talk) 19:46, 23 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]
