Ironically the redirect says Please do not use this shortcut, as the term can be considered insulting to the people it is applied to. So it is of no use as a shortcut and should be deleted Abote2 (talk) 23:37, 18 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

No mention of "Fortescue" in target article. Appears from edit history of the redirect (this 2006 version) that it is one of the portraits in the headmaster's study, but as this isn't mentioned the redirect is unhelpful. PamD 22:18, 18 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. The term "Primitive Apostolic Christianity" does not occur at either target article (indeed it occurs nowhere in enwiki now that I've removed 2 invalid entries from disambiguation pages). Shhhnotsoloud (talk) 20:09, 18 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was speedy retarget to Controversial Reddit communities#ForeverAlone. I went ahead and retargeted this redirect since there exists a section in another article that is specifically about this group. GorillaWarfare (talk) 01:47, 20 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

The ForeverAlone forum on reddit is not an incel forum. The "forever alone" phrase and meme are also not associated with incels. Lmbro (talk) 19:58, 18 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was retarget to
WP:CEN to Wikipedia:Current events noticeboard and delete "T:CEN" as requested. There is much less interest in this discussion than I would expect, but the extended nomination statement seems to explain it well. Request granted after a week without opposition.

User

Portal:Current events/Noticeboard) as the primary shortcut. This is instead of having a primary TLA
.

This topic previously came up at the

CURrently links to Wikipedia:Cleanup resources
.

The only instance of this shortcut being used to mean

WP:CENT explicitly is by 5.150.92.19 once here
. Other than that and the aforementioned RFC discussion, that is pretty much the only time this shortcut has ever come up.

WP:CEN was created by now blocked user Wikid77 in 2013 (block was for unrelated reasons).

Regardless, WP:CEN should 100% not navigate to {{

T:CENT
.

WP:CEN makes sense retarged to

WP:CENT. I mean, I would prefer to not have a hatnote for stylistic reasons, but my Connecticut accent
is telling me it'll (pronounced: Id-dill/rhymes with fiddle) be necessary.

Therefore, I propose we retarget

WP:CEN to Wikipedia:Current events noticeboard with a hatnote to WP:CENT and delete T:CEN as unneeded. –MJL ‐Talk‐☖ 19:34, 18 June 2019 (UTC) –MJL ‐Talk‐☖ 19:35, 18 June 2019 (UTC)[reply

The result of the discussion was Speedy delete. Ok, only after I deleted this did I see in the logs that it was deleted and restored in 2012. So, report me to arbcom for extremely slow wheel warring if you must, but it never should've been restored in the first place. It was done because the restoring admin did not belive it was recently created, ignoring the fact that it was at that time a redirect created by a page move, so it was in fact quite recent, totally implausible as a search term,(what does it even mean? term certainly isn't in the target article) and did not and still does not have relevant incoming links, so I'm just calling

The result of the discussion was delete. Somehow I didn't know about any of this, and I'm a bit shaken now. If anyone can give me a concise explanation of what's going on on my talk page, it would be appreciated—perhaps that's not possible! --BDD (talk) 21:31, 25 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Not sure what the meaning of this is or why it redirects to this page Abote2 (talk) 09:52, 18 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

It means TRUst and SAfety, and so makes sense. ——SerialNumber54129 09:58, 18 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Then it's very badly mistargeted. —

The redirect seems like a puzzling choice to me, but if other editors fond it useful, there's no harm in keeping it. Tazerdadog (talk) 10:30, 18 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • I have seen approximately 0 uses of TRUSA. T&S is the overwhelmingly popular abbreviation used instead, but even that aside this redirect should target Trust & Safety on meta and not WP:FRAM. --qedk (t 桜 c) 10:46, 18 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Retarget Bad choice, this needs to be redirected to the actual page about T&S. A random newbie will have far greater need to reach T&S (when he types in the shortcut), rather than read the narrative of an internal drama. But, I've hardly seen TRUSA. T&S is almost always used. So, I won't oppose an outright delete, either. ∯WBGconverse 10:48, 18 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • I've never seen it either; it took a couple of minutes to work out something that makes sense (alternatives: WP:TRoUSA redirects to
    pants, WP:TRoUnSed redirects to—err—rout; you get thepicture...) ——SerialNumber54129 13:28, 18 June 2019 (UTC)[reply

  • Delete as unintuitive. WP:T&S would be a good shortcut for Trust & Safety, but should redirect to the proper location (meta:Trust and Safety?) -- Tavix (talk) 14:52, 18 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete or failing that retarget.

  • Delete, second option retarget. — xaosflux Talk 16:06, 18 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete per the above. Not an abbreviation that is in use to refer to the current target or anything else (there are no uses in project space I can find and all uses elsewhere seem to be the surname "Trusa"). WP:T&S would make sense as a soft redirect to Trust and Safety on Meta though. Thryduulf (talk) 17:17, 18 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete as both an unlikely search term and just a really lousy portmanteau. —A little blue Bori v^_^v Bori! 18:36, 18 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete per the comment directly above.

  • Delete I don't see the benefit of retargeting it to anywhere. – Ammarpad (talk) 07:06, 19 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. Retargeting to Fram is obnoxious and is the kind of attitude that breaks the encyclopedia. We don't give out redirects as brownie points but so people can find and research stuff, including critics. They give three alternate names for themselves at the Meta page and none is this unused redirect. Wnt (talk) 13:40, 19 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. Are you really telling me that an arbitrator who hasn't found time to comment on the substantive issue has instead spent his time creating this redirect?!? WJBscribe (talk) 23:44, 19 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. I keep reading it as T-R-USA. Very unhelpful. –MJL ‐Talk‐☖ 00:19, 20 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete per MJL and Jéské Couriano. I don't believe these sorts of shortenings are typically done in English as much as in Russian or Japanese. —/Mendaliv/2¢/Δ's/ 00:33, 20 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Unused shortcut, can't make any sense of what it could have stood for, no history worth preserving

@Xaosflux: cf. Wikipedia:WALMART  :) ——SerialNumber54129 13:34, 18 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
@Serial Number 54129: I'd be fine with deleting WALMART as well. — xaosflux Talk 13:37, 18 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Delete/neutral on the second one. Don't feel like thinking about it too much, but seems useless.
