- Note: This discussion has been included in WikiProject Football's list of association football-related deletions. --BDD (talk) 16:13, 31 March 2016 (UTC)
- Delete - inherently POV. Fenix down (talk) 16:31, 31 March 2016 (UTC)
- Delete - not a valid search term. GiantSnowman 17:13, 31 March 2016 (UTC)
- Delete A POV search term. Joseph2302 (talk) 17:41, 31 March 2016 (UTC)
- Comment. It's a perfectly valid search term in the syntactic sense of validity, and every search is from the searcher's point of view. It may not be a valid (whatever that means), npov search result; but redirects don't have to be npov. Si Trew (talk) 21:02, 1 April 2016 (UTC)

WP:TNT would apply by now if the page had been left as an article. —Largo Plazo (talk) 15:56, 26 March 2016 (UTC)
]
- Delete I'm thinking the now hidden article might even be a hoax, and definitely not written well enough to use. The redirect makes no sense either as there is nothing at the target about this. Legacypac (talk) 19:30, 26 March 2016 (UTC)
- Delete as WP:RFD#D2 confusing; not at target. Or just possibly retarget to Heterocyclic amine formation in meat. Si Trew (talk) 23:03, 26 March 2016 (UTC)]

Wikipedia:Prick
- 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. The discussion below has found that this redirect is recently created and has a presumed purpose as an insult against other editors. There is rough consensus to delete on these grounds. Deryck C. 17:29, 6 April 2016 (UTC)
- Wikipedia:Prick → Wikipedia:Dick (links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
IMHO a pointless redirect as it only redirects to
WP:DICK and then DICK redirects to Meta, Personally I don't think every swear word needs to be created and redirected to Meta, And the only wikilink to Prick is my talkpage. (The only reason this was created was so the creator could link the word and then kindly call me a prick [1]), Thanks, –Davey2010Talk 04:06, 26 March 2016 (UTC)

- Delete as there are already plenty of ways to insult other users here without another tool. Legacypac (talk) 04:17, 26 March 2016 (UTC)
- Weak keep as a non-expletive version of "dick" -- 70.51.46.39 (talk) 06:29, 26 March 2016 (UTC)
- Comment Wikipedia:Dick is a soft redirect to Meta:Don't be a jerk; Wikipedia:Prick is equally apt for types of behaviour that get you labelled "a jerk" but, c'mon, 10 years into a collaborative project, cannot they all be deleted? Bosley John Bosley (talk) 14:33, 26 March 2016 (UTC)
- Yes but not every swear word needs to be redirected back to Meta, ]
- "WP:DICK" is insufficient, since some people have an aversion to writing expletives due to having some sort of upbringing that is insufficient to use Wikipedia if DICK is the only choice -- 70.51.46.39 (talk) 04:34, 27 March 2016 (UTC)

- Neutral per 70.51.46.39. Doesn't do any harm. I would be at a weak keep as well, but it was created recently and used to make a point, which makes a not very beneficial redirect even less valuable in my opinion.—Godsy(TALKCONT) 19:31, 27 March 2016 (UTC)]
- Delete - This seems to have no constructive worth whatsoever. And if we do keep this, I wonder if we'll see WP:FartInYourGeneralDirection and WP:MotherWasAHamster surface. CoffeeWithMarkets (talk) 22:22, 27 March 2016 (UTC)
- Keep as harmless. flyer 13:29, 28 March 2016 (UTC)]

- Speedily delete per ]
- Delete as above. I declined speedy deletion, it does not even come close to satisfying the requirements of CSD G10, as there is no identifiable person or subject attacked on this page. Even if it was created for a nefarious purpose, that does not rise to CSD G10. Let this RfD proceed to conclusion. Safiel (talk) 16:30, 28 March 2016 (UTC)
- Further comment Not too long ago, I was called a dumb**** (uncensored) in an edit summary. No action was taken against that editor, other than a civility warning. That would be the appropriate action here. The editor who created the redirect and used it as an uncivil jab should be formally warned for civility and the redirect deleted. This was simple incivility, nothing more. Safiel (talk) 16:39, 28 March 2016 (UTC)

- The result of the discussion was speedily retargeted to List of artists represented by the Simon Lee Gallery by nominator User:Legacypac. (non-admin closure) by Si Trew (talk) 07:08, 26 March 2016 (UTC)
- Simon Lee Gallery → User:Allroad04/Simon Lee Gallery (links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
Xnamespace redirect from an illogical move of a decent article back into the namespace of a user that departed years ago. The subject reps a long list of bluelinked artists, which strongly suggests the gallery is notable by association. Legacypac (talk) 03:58, 26 March 2016 (UTC)
Delete.I don't think the article in namespace is useful as it stands – at least the lede is not. We could move it, with a less detailed lede, to ]
- feel free to improve the article so it can be moved. As a stale userspace draft it will never help anyone. Legacypac (talk) 04:52, 26 March 2016 (UTC)

- I've retargeted Simon Lee Gallery to the new list article. This RfD is now moot. Legacypac (talk) 05:36, 26 March 2016 (UTC)
