• Yeeting → Norma Yeeting  (talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ] 

I think the reason Norma Yeeting gets vandalized so much is because IP vandals search 'yeet' in the search box and get redirected there from this. I propose this redirect should be deleted because it indirectly promotes vandalism on the target article. Poydoo (talk) 20:29, 28 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep. It's a valid {{
  WP:PEND protection would be a better solution. Narky Blert (talk) 21:07, 28 January 2020 (UTC)[reply

• Keep as a standard {{R from surname}} with nothing else on Wikipedia this could refer to. I see vandalism has been a consistent problem, so have applied indefinite semi-protection to the target which should largely resolve that problem moving forward. -- Tavix ^(talk) 21:09, 28 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep per above, but we should probably let this play out a week in case another (or a couple) Yeeting(s) emerges as potential targets, which is why I didn't add

• Keep; we shouldn't surrender a perfectly valid redirect just because it causes minor vandalism. J947 ^(c), at 00:56, 29 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep. It's the Yeet one that keeps getting recreated as vandalism and having to be salted. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 02:36, 29 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  I don't know much about Malaysian names, but could Yeet be a surname or given name redirect to Koe Yeet? -- Tavix ^(talk) 02:39, 29 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  Not really the

  WP:PRIMARYTOPIC compared to the internet slang though. J947 ^(c), at 03:35, 29 January 2020 (UTC)[reply

  The internet slang has no discussion on Wikipedia AFAICT, so it cannot be the primary topic at this time. -- Tavix ^(talk) 12:17, 29 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  The internet slang is available on Wiktionary wikt:yeeting, so a possibility is {{wiktionary redirect|yeeting}} -- 67.70.33.184 (talk) 06:08, 4 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep per Narky. Hog Farm (talk) 03:49, 29 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]
• Comment Why not turn it into a {{surname}} article? There's an biologist named B. Yeeting that's an author of many references used on Wikipedia. And Buraieta Yeeting Kiribati track athlete gold medalist (who holds a Games record and national record). (there's also a published medical researcher S. Yeeting) If it is turned into a surname article, that could be protected instead of the biographical article. There's also several people named "Yee-ting", so could be disambiguation page linking the surnamed people and those with the given name "Yee-Ting". (there's also a published biochemical researcher Yeeting Esther Chong) -- 67.70.33.184 (talk) 07:40, 30 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Norma is the only Yeeting that has an article, so it would be inappropriate to create a surname index at this time. Such article would fail

WP:NNAME. -- Tavix ^(talk) 10:48, 30 January 2020 (UTC)[reply

  • The target isn't a disease article, it is a virus article. And do you expect that "Wuhan seafood market pneumonia" will be used for any future disease incidences? It isn't even being used now, it's already fallen out of use, so would only ever be associated with this particular outbreak. It specifically is about the disease as it was when it was first recognized, at the beginning of the outbreak, not as it is now, where transmission outside of the Wuhan seafood market occurs, and people are not calling the people suffering from it having caught it Germany or elsewhere as having Wuhan seafood market pneumonia.

• Dr. Janet Craig → Petticoat Junction  (talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ] 

Craig is actually a historic figure in the history of television - apparently only the 2nd 3rd (actually) woman doctor character to appear on American television - "Dr. Maggie Graham"(Bettye Ackerman) on Ben Casey being the first 2nd (See my mistake post below.). Also, the article's contribution history/attribution has basically been erased from public view. Needs to be discussed. Shearonink (talk) 16:00, 28 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I redirected the Dr. Craig article to PJ because since its 2012 creation, it has been all

^{• whaddya want? •} 17:24, 28 January 2020 (UTC)[reply

My mistake. Looks like Craig was the 3rd. First was in 1952-53 in the (very) early TV soap City Hospital/Kate Morrow (Ann Burr). Then was Dr. Maggie Graham(Bettye Ackerman) Ben Casey(1961-66) and then was Dr. Janet Craig(1968-70), all according to June Cleaver Was a Feminist!: Reconsidering the Female Characters of Early Television by Cary O'Dell (McFarland, 2013). Shearonink (talk) 18:38, 28 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Also this MeTV article about June Lockhart as Dr. Janet Craig "The first female doctor on TV was an outlier, Dr. Kate Morrow (Ann Burr) on the series City Hospital in 1952–53. It would be a decade before another recurring female doctor character came along, anesthesiologist Dr. Maggie Graham (Bettye Ackerman) on Ben Casey (1961–66). Lockhart's Dr. Craig was one of the few female medical professionals in a major television role." Shearonink (talk) 00:09, 29 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I think it's definitely worthy of a mention in

Thx. If content from the Dr. Janet Craig article is merged into the Petticoat Junction article and/or into the June Lockhart article then there should be merged-from notification/templates on whatever talkpages. Shearonink (talk) 02:36, 29 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]
