@Rosguill: If you click on the "show" button next to the other versions section of the infobox it brings up a few more ports and versions of the game, one of which (the game boy port) was released in 1989. 192.76.8.74 (talk) 00:14, 15 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Half power[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 disambiguate. Someone wiser than me might want to restructure the page, I wasn't sure if "square root" should go under "See Also" or not. – filelakeshoe (t / c) 🐱 19:48, 24 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Half power → Square root (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

While I can see the rationale for this redirect I think it's a bit ambiguous, doing a google search primarily turns up results relating to various half power measurements, like Half-power point Half power frequency and Half power beam width. Perhaps this would be a good candidate for disambiguation? 192.76.8.74 (talk) 16:41, 14 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Retarget to half-power point - all of those things are called "half power" because $x^{0.5}$ or $x^{\frac {1}{2}}$ (colloquially "x to the power of one-half") are alternative ways of writing ${\sqrt {x}}$ , and the calculation of "half power" derives from that, rather than being actually one-half times "full power". None of our articles do a good job of explaining this but half-power point at least tries. Ivanvector's squirrel (^trees/_nuts) 17:00, 14 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@PEIsquirrel: That's not quite right, the half power point is the location at which the power has dropped to half it's maximum, the reason √2 shows up in electrical contexts is because power is proportional to voltage squared. 192.76.8.74 (talk) 20:18, 14 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Right, I should have written "not half of the signal voltage", which is normally my frame of reference for anything I'm calculating. Ivanvector's squirrel (^trees/_nuts) 13:16, 15 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Retarget to Half-power point: This is the main topic. ―Susmuffin ^Talk 17:40, 14 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Disambiguate Discussion above is telling me there's ambiguity for half power and it can be a reference to the articles that 192 has listed. – The Grid (talk) 22:50, 15 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Disambiguate. I would be far more likely to use "the half power of x" to mean $x^{1/2}$ (as it is used, for example, in Coil–globule transition) than I would to refer to half-power point, and we also have half power frequency and half-power beamwidth all going to different targets, so it's not obvious that any one of these should be primary. Or if there is a primary meaning, I think it is likely to be that a device is operating at half of its full capacity (example: in top and tail, it says the locomotive at the rear operates at half power), for which there is no convenient target (the meaning is similar to half-power point but half-power point is too technical and specific to work for this). —David Eppstein (talk) 07:30, 16 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Disambiguate: This is not unambiguously square root nor half-power point, it ambiguously can refer to several articles and therefore needs a disambiguation page. — MarkH₂₁^talk 07:50, 16 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Disambiguate. It's clear from the discussion above that different people see different things as the main meaning, so there is no clear primary topic. As a non-mathematical person I would be surprised to end up at a technical mathematics article when following a link to such a generic phrase. Thryduulf (talk) 11:05, 16 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

2.9200...[edit]

2.9200... → Formula for primes#A function that represents all primes (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

According to the target, a function for determining prime numbers relies on a constant approximated to $f_{1}=2.920050977316\ldots ,$ . This page was created by an editor who was guessing at what that approximation is, and either did not round properly or had it wrong in the first place. Googling this exact term brings up only unrelated results for software releases with a similar version number. Ivanvector's squirrel (^trees/_nuts) 16:40, 14 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Delete: This is an implausible synonym of the target section's topic. ―Susmuffin ^Talk 17:37, 14 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Keep: The ellipsis indicates the decimal expansion has been abbreviated. It definitely doesn't imply rounding or approximation. (If it did, we would need to write $f_{1}\approx 2.920050977316\ldots$ ) 2.9200... is a valid abbreviation of the decimal expansion of $f_{1}$ . Given the Numberphile video, the decimal expansion seems like something people may use to find more information on the subject.—Ketil Trout (^<><!) 12:47, 15 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Delete: Deeply implausible search term for many different reasons (should we also have 2.92... and 2.920... and 2.92005... all redirect to the same place?); "someone made a video on the internet in which this number appears" is an exceptionally weak basis for having a redirect. --JBL (talk) 13:34, 15 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Delete This is an unlikely search term and implausible synonym for an arbitrary truncation of the decimal expansion of a particular number that isn't notable enough for its own article. — MarkH₂₁^talk 07:53, 16 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Delete, pretty much for the same reasons as JBL. —David Eppstein (talk) 17:24, 16 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

The current target does explain different perspectives on the term "adoptive parent". That said it's... well, to be frank, not a very good article, and its coverage of the term is piecemeal throughout the article rather than in one place. Retarget to ~~adoption~~ Adoption#Parenting, although I could support reverting to the current target if at some later date the article discusses the term more concisely. -- Tamzin^{[cetacean needed]} (she/they) 06:15, 14 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Per WP:COSTLY, no need for a redirect from an uppercase disambiguation qualifier. No article ever existed at this title, so no risk of breaking incoming links. Elli (talk | contribs) 04:54, 14 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, I’m the editor who created the redirect. Pardon my mistake, but the capitalizaion of the disambiguation qualifier is purely due to me forgetting to close my auto cap. If anything, you can just delete the page, and I’ll create a new redirect with the correct capitalizations. However, note that there indeed is an article leading to the redirect page; Kim Gwang-suk. Thanks 一Tomukatsusu (talk) 05:40, 14 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Tomukatsusu: sorry for the lack of clarity - I meant that the article Kim Kwang Suk never existed at the title Kim Kwang Suk (Singer).
