- Women's March on Washington → 2017 Women's March (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
As of 2019, there are already three women's march in Washington DC, not a suitable redirect B dash (talk) 15:41, 21 January 2019 (UTC)
- Retarget to Women's March which should include all of the Marches on Washington (and any that are not included can be added). It can probably be tagged with {{Broad-concept article}} if someone believes there is scope for an article on this topic broadly. -- Tavix (talk) 16:10, 21 January 2019 (UTC)
- Probable retarget This seems to make sense though I'm interested in hearing the basis for any opposition. NewsAndEventsGuy (talk) 17:57, 21 January 2019 (UTC)
- @NewsAndEventsGuy: what are you supporting? -- Tavix (talk) 18:02, 21 January 2019 (UTC)

Ram Man should redirected into Ram-Man (character) as it clearly about the same character. Dwanyewest (talk) 14:58, 21 January 2019 (UTC)

- Swift Impulse → 88.3 Southern FM (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
Not even mentioned in it's targeted article. Jovanmilic97 (talk) 12:27, 21 January 2019 (UTC)
- Weak delete. The current programming guide mentions a "Late Night Swift" [1] which would be the same as Swift Impulse according to their social media [2], however, if there are no plans to mention that in the article, then there's no point in keeping the redirect. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 21:36, 21 January 2019 (UTC)

Redirects created by a now-blocked user, not discussed in target article. The last one is an implausible typo. None have incoming links. Place Clichy (talk) 08:49, 21 January 2019 (UTC)

- Six times → Phrases from The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
A currently blocked user (에멜무지로~enwiki) created this redirect long ago, but I changed its target to Phrases from The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, however it doesn't have the actual use, except Yukhoe previously that the word means a Korean raw meat dish, not 'Six times'.--TradeJackLandSim (talk) 01:32, 21 January 2019 (UTC)
- Retarget to 6x as that has a number of possible targets. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 06:47, 21 January 2019 (UTC)
- Retarget per AngusWOOF. Rubbish computer (Talk: Contribs) 01:11, 22 January 2019 (UTC)

Candidates for Speedy Deletion
[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 no consensus. Opinions and arguments are evenly split. (non-admin closure) feminist (talk) 08:13, 28 January 2019 (UTC)
- Candidates for Speedy Deletion → Category:Candidates for speedy deletion (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
This is a redirect from mainspace to category space that concerns project space activity. A 2014 RfD concluded keep on the basis it's useful (I paraphrase) but it isn't anymore: pageviews since Mar 2017 are single figures per month. Time to reconsider a delete. Shhhnotsoloud (talk) 17:37, 13 January 2019 (UTC)
- Keep for exactly the same reasons as it was kept last time: we need to give new users who don't understand namespaces a way in to our deletion processes when they find their article is or was nominated for speedy deletion. It doesn't matter that there haven't been very many of them in absolute numbers, but it does matter that those who needed to find it were able to do so. Thryduulf (talk) 14:54, 14 January 2019 (UTC)
Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, feminist (talk) 00:30, 21 January 2019 (UTC)
- Delete - There is a button on every CSD template to "contest this deletion," and the templates also provide ample links. From the stats, it is apparent that no one is actually benefiting from this redirect. We have no evidence that the statistical noise we see on the stats page represents helped users. Those users could just as easily have been intimidated by the five banners across the top of the redirect target and stopped without reading any further. There is no evidence that this redirect is actually helping anyone. --NYKevin 04:13, 22 January 2019 (UTC)
- Delete The button described above is completely sufficient. Very unlikely a user who does not understand the namespaces would use the word "Candidates". UnitedStatesian (talk) 18:46, 22 January 2019 (UTC)
- Keep, no evidence that "candidates for speedy deletion" has other uses, potentially useful, and per Thryduulf. —Kusma (t·c) 20:29, 22 January 2019 (UTC)
- Keep per Thryduulf's points: useful for new users who do not yet understand namespaces. Rubbish computer (Talk: Contribs) 21:44, 23 January 2019 (UTC)

Little Bang
[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 delete. MBisanz talk 01:22, 28 January 2019 (UTC)
Term not mentioned in the target article. The redirect is a WP:SURPRISE since readers looking up this term are most likely trying to find some sort of unique subject comparable to Big Bang. Steel1943 (talk) 16:36, 10 January 2019 (UTC)
- Retarget to Quark-gluon plasma; the one source I found [3] makes a mention of little bang in the context of particle physics and draws an analogy with the big bang. ComplexRational (talk) 18:49, 10 January 2019 (UTC)
Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Killiondude (talk) 00:28, 21 January 2019 (UTC)
- Delete and do not retarget - "little bang" appears in neither the current target nor the proposed target. Redirects should be mentioned at their targets. --NYKevin 04:19, 22 January 2019 (UTC)

Delete Descriptive prefixes are not appropriate forms in redirects. Created by User:Neelix. UnitedStatesian (talk) 17:14, 11 January 2019 (UTC)
- For the record, this one isn't "created by Neelix" in the usual sense; the only reason he's shown as the creator is that he moved it to the correct title, leaving a redirect in the process. ‑ Iridescent 17:46, 11 January 2019 (UTC)
- You're right, of course; struck.UnitedStatesian (talk) 17:50, 11 January 2019 (UTC)
Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Killiondude (talk) 00:25, 21 January 2019 (UTC)
- Delete as an implausible search term. Rubbish computer (Talk: Contribs) 21:44, 23 January 2019 (UTC)
- Delete Redirect pages should not have descriptive prefixes. ―Susmuffin Talk 09:22, 24 January 2019 (UTC)

- The result of the discussion was Withdrawn after redtarget as suggested here. ~ GB fan 12:16, 21 January 2019 (UTC)
It’s an article for one character serving as a redirect for another character? The section being directed to in the redirect doesn’t even exist anymore. No mainspace articles even link here.--Fradio71 (talk) 05:26, 21 January 2019 (UTC)
- Retarget to Where in the World Is Carmen Sandiego? (game show) where the Chief is a main character and originates there. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 06:44, 21 January 2019 (UTC)
- Alright, I’ve retargeted…unless I was supposed to wait for other options, which doesn’t seem to be the case--Fradio71 (talk) 07:09, 21 January 2019 (UTC)
