Misleading redirect that would suggest a video game name. Unnecessary. ZXCVBNM (TALK) 23:41, 27 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete since there is no mention of any video game in that article. This came about because of Airships in video games being turned into a redirect, which you did about 9 years ago. That should probably be deleted too for the same reason. —Xezbeth (talk) 05:25, 28 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. There doesn't seem to be a video game called Airship, and if there were one it isn't mentioned in the target, nor is any other material relating to airships in video games. As such, the redirect is unhelpful. (I agree that Airships in video games is also worth revisiting, but it might be better off nominated separately rather than being added to this nomination, as it's a less obviously confusing title and was once an article.) – Arms & Hearts (talk) 19:54, 29 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete - per all of the above. 111.68.115.165 (talk) 05:13, 30 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Ghazwatul Hind

talk page or in a deletion review
). No further edits should be made to this section.
The result of the discussion was speedy close. Bad-faith nomination by a banned editor. Since nobody has commented in favour of overwriting the redirect who is not obviously a sockpuppet of the banned editor, I'm closing this. Ivanvector (Talk/Edits) 19:54, 27 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Looking at the history and comparing the last version I believe, the article may be given a separate page and redirect removed (and protected from disruptions, as is clear from history). This article is already available in other languages on official wikipedia:

So why the updated English wiki article (which is more comprehensive, well sourced and neutral) is muted using a redirect? (Note: The article was marked for deletion in March 2014 for being brief and unsourced, and some users quote that to keep it on redirect. But now those issues have been addressed in the July 2018 version of the article.Even placing a protection template request on talk page of Ghazwatul_Hind is undone by some users!) — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2405:205:10c:9c91:284c:dcfc:8851:3177 (talk • contribs) 15:14, 27 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was disambiguate. -- Patar knight - chat/contributions 07:17, 3 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Retarget or dabify? Most search results are for Birmingham or Birmingham, Alabama. feminist (talk) 11:50, 27 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

  • Set-indexify for people actually surnamed Bham. Drafted below the redirect. None of those articles existed back in 2007 when this redirect was created, but now they do. Birmingham and Bellingham and whatnot can go in "See also". 59.149.124.29 (talk) 11:52, 27 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
    • What is "Set-indexify"? Andy Mabbett (Pigsonthewing); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 12:02, 27 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
      • Set-indexify" = "Convert into a
        set index article". For most practical purposes, this can be regarded as a type of a disambiguation page, sort of. – Uanfala (talk) 12:53, 27 July 2018 (UTC)[reply
        ]
  • I'd say primary usage is Birmingham (which is how I created the page; I wasn't aware it had been changed, and would have reverted if I had known), but a disambiguation page might be better. Andy Mabbett (Pigsonthewing); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 12:02, 27 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Dabify. In addition to the three people with the name already included in the draft, there is the abbreviation (used afaik at least for the English Birmingham, no objection if other cities are added provided the usage is attested), and the river in India (mentioned at Bham Dam). I'd rather have all the entries in a single page, than to split them across a dab page and a surname index. – Uanfala (talk) 12:50, 27 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Dabify news articles and websites refer to Birmingham, Alabama; with some Birmingham in England. Also quite a few people with Bham as a given name or family name. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 16:51, 27 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support disambiguation. Thanks 59.149 and Angus for the draft. Deryck C. 15:55, 28 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
