Unlikely redirect due to lack of space between title and disambiguator. Steel1943 (talk) 22:13, 17 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete, per Steel1943. PamD 10:48, 18 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Weak keep. The article existed at that name for some time so there may be external links to it that would break if deleted. Redirects are cheap, so I see no pressing need to delete it. --Xover (talk) 14:20, 18 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete Per nom. Redirects are cheap but that's no reason to keep pointless ones.ZXCVBNM (TALK) 16:16, 18 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete per nom. Entries linking to this typo can be easily moved. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 23:38, 18 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Apparently, the subject of these redirects is a video game publisher, not the title of a video game itself. Given their current target, a list of video games, redirecting to their current target is misleading and confusing as the subject of the redirects not defined at the target. Steel1943 (talk) 17:31, 1 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep all. The Goat Store is associated with homebrew Dreamcast publishing,[1][2] as is the subject of the target, and is mentioned in the article's list. (not

The result of the discussion was disambiguate. While by a pure count of !votes we are split 2.5dab-2r-1del, the "retarget" !voters do not make any argument as to why "multitool" should be considered the primary target. As such, I close in favor of disambiguation, for want of a policy- or evidence-based argument to the contrary.

Overly vague sci-fi concept to redirect anywhere, should be left up to the search function. ZXCVBNM (TALK) 02:03, 9 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I'll add that it would have to be mentioned in the article to be of any use, perhaps as a dab. There is coverage in news articles such as Venture Beat: [3] and Nerdist [4] but it still requires a mention in the Mass Effect article. The Some game has this article from Zam [5] AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 21:20, 11 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Striking delete vote above. It looks like we have better redirect suggestions. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 23:41, 18 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete not even mentioned in the target. It could have been speedily deleted I think. Domdeparis (talk) 17:29, 9 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Retarget to multi-tool as a reasonable synonym. Stuff exists outside video games, you guys. Ivanvector (Talk/Edits) 20:27, 11 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
    • "Omni", though? That implies that it can literally become any tool... which the one in Mass Effect can, but in real life is impossible. It is a science fiction concept.ZXCVBNM (TALK) 07:30, 13 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

If this redirects to multitool then either Omnitool (disambiguation) should be created for the list of items or perhaps a section can be created in multi-tools article called Fictional multi-tools, although that could easily spam up the article.

Originally this prodded as lacking notability, then changed to a redirect. However, he really doesn't have much to do with the show itself, he just writes fan fiction about it. ... discospinster talk 17:29, 17 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

DELETE this is cleanup resulting from an AfD. The target was deleted at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Wikings (2nd nomination), so these redirects to the deleted topic no longer make sense. -- 70.52.11.217 (talk) 05:08, 17 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

  • Retarget - a search showed that it was an early title for
    Shin Megami Tensei 5. I imagine nobody changed the redirect target from the series article once the game article was created. It should be retargeted there. Sergecross73 msg me 04:01, 17 January 2018 (UTC)[reply

Misleading, as there is another game that is just called "Nocturne" that isn't on PS2. We also don't disambiguate games by system. ZXCVBNM (TALK) 01:57, 17 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep. The nominator has proven that the redirect is not ambiguous, and I agree. Steel1943 (talk) 15:18, 17 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep How is it misleading? The "(PS2 game)" makes the title not ambiguous, therefore it's not misleading. It's a valid search term. We also don't disambiguate games by system. applies to articles titles. I see nothing wrong with redirects including system names if it is a useful search disambiguator. --The1337gamer (talk) 17:53, 17 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep - I agree with The1337gamer, I have no idea how it could be considered misleading.--Alexandra IDVtalk 19:34, 17 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep - per The1337gamer. The nomination would be valid proposal for an article title change, but not for deleting a redirect/search term. Sergecross73 msg me 17:10, 19 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

"Series" implies that it's not, in fact, a single video game.
