  • Indifferent. There do appear to a few similarly titled articles as well as a modest number of redirects with similar names, so it's conceivable that readers might expect search phrases beginning with "List of items in" to take them somewhere useful. Still, such redirects aren't that common, and this particular one doesn't appear to be used much either: it received a total of 10 views for the whole of last year. – Uanfala (talk) 05:22, 6 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep and refine per Amory – the proposed target section seems to contain the content that the reader is likely to be looking for. – Arms & Hearts (talk) 17:43, 8 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete - I may be going against the grain here, but I still have to support deletion. Keeping the redirect seems to imply that having such gaming-centric, detailed lists is standard and accepted on Wikipedia, which it certainly isn't. CoffeeWithMarkets (talk) 04:55, 9 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
    • Except it's well known that we do have many lists (in fact, I'd say enWiki is (in)famous for its lists). As I said above, the material may not be at the "List of X" page, but the material that person would want is on the 'pedia; it'd be silly not to make it easier for them to find given that it costs us nothing. If someone searching for "List of items in Sonic games" would come away empty handed, we should delete this; if they'd be fine with what they find, we should keep it. ~ Amory (u • t • c) 15:18, 15 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete List of items ≠ Common features. And we shouldn't make a list of items either. There's really no good reason to have a redirect with this title.

The result of the discussion was delete. -- Tavix (talk) 18:56, 16 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

These redirects are all subpages of Portal:Africa/Featured article. I'm nominating these for the simple fact that they are redirects that are both blocking the creation of new content at these titles for those who may want to assist this portal in the future who may not be used to how the coding in Wikipedia works, as well as the fact that these redirects cause their targets to be transcluded twice at Portal:Africa/Featured article, possibly confusing those trying to view the list. So, I'm more or less requesting deletion of these redirects for housekeeping purposes. Steel1943 (talk) 19:11, 8 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Why would one accent be there and not the other? Non-accented phrase

Pohadka maje already exists as redirect. To start making combos of accents is implausible. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 16:40, 8 March 2018 (UTC)[reply

They may or may not help. Best case scenario they help, worst case scenario they don't do anything. Now, could we please move on to more important things? Plenty of more important work to do on Wikipedia than this. Dr. Vogel (talk) 17:04, 8 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep per DrVogel's rationale but not their self-righteousness. These are harmless. Ivanvector (Talk/Edits) 19:25, 8 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
    • Apology very sorry, didn't mean to come across as self-righteous. What I meant to say was (and I realise I did so badly), was that unfortunately we all have limited amounts of energy, and I think our energy is better spent on things that are far more useful than worrying about a couple of harmless (at worst) redirects. Sorry. Dr. Vogel (talk) 19:31, 8 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep I've been through a couple hundred of his redirects, he accounts for many naming conventions and forms that are likely for people in other countries with other keyboards to use. I understand the nom, but I'd argue it only looks at it from an English language perspective. SEMMENDINGER (talk) 03:50, 9 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep Not a massively implausible typo. Doesn't seem implausible enough to delete, at any rate. Thegreatluigi (talk) 13:18, 11 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep both, plausible and harmless redirects.

I'm thinking this should be retargeted to

Learning to read. Steel1943 (talk) 13:04, 8 March 2018 (UTC)[reply

Sounds fair enough to retarget. This redirect was supposed to be about people just learning to read.
Reading (process) is a much higher level topic. I would not have objected to a bold change at all. Graeme Bartlett (talk) 13:11, 8 March 2018 (UTC)[reply

(non-admin closure) feminist (talk) 04:12, 15 March 2018 (UTC)[reply

This redirect doesn't make a lot of sense. Mind/body exercise may be part of some alternative medicine, but it's also part of real medicine, as well as various versions that don't claim to be medicine at all. Complicating things, it appears that this was once the title of the article currently called Alternative medicine, so simple deletion is probably not a good idea.

  • Retarget to Mind–body interventions. The page appears to be started by User:Neelix as a move - maybe he deleted the earlier page? It looks like the material at this title is at my proposed target and it is a closer match. Legacypac (talk) 02:12, 8 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Legacypac has a good idea, retarget is more useful then deletion. Also while doing this, retarget
    Mind–body exercise as well. Graeme Bartlett (talk) 02:45, 8 March 2018 (UTC)[reply

I've retargeted
Mind-body exercise now. Given that we are fixing both back to the original target I think this is best. Legacypac (talk) —Preceding undated comment added 03:11, 8 March 2018 (UTC)[reply
