Insideeus

). No further edits should be made to this section.
The result of the discussion was soft delete. Deryck C. 20:17, 15 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Not mentioned at the target or anywhere else on Wikipedia, an internet search does not suggest that they are significant enough to be a due mention at the target. Delete unless a justification can be provided. signed, Rosguill talk 22:31, 7 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Ambiguous term, doesn't necessarily refer to software development. I would suggest deletion, although a redirect like Community-maintained software would be fine to create. signed, Rosguill talk 21:56, 7 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete for ambiguity. However, I'm not too keen on this topic. If it isn't that ambiguous, then redirect. --Diriector_Doc┝Talk

  • Delete excessively vague. buidhe 00:02, 9 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete Not all open-source software is community-maintained either. A developer can release the source code of their software under an OSI-approved license, maintain it on their own, and not accept patches from others. --im temtem • hOI!! • fsfdfg • alt account of pandakekok9 03:37, 9 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@
Projekt Gutenberg-DE, so I moved all the pre-2016 page history over there. Deryck C. 20:24, 15 June 2020 (UTC)[reply

Projekt Gutenberg-DE is a project to digitize German public domain works. It has an article on de. What happened here:

  1. 2005: someone creates an article at
    Projekt Gutenberg-DE
  2. September 2015: the article fails
    PROD
    due to notability issues
  3. January 2016:
    Projekt Gutenberg-DE
  4. January 2016: GreenC cuts and pastes the essay it into project space (at Wikipedia:Projekt Gutenberg-DE) and creates a cross-namespace redirect

Meanwhile, this redirect has 32 incoming links from mainspace (a few from templates, most not). I don't think articles should be linking directly to a Wikipedia essay. Delete as a non-useful mainspace redirect, unlink the incoming links from mainspace, and retarget the incoming links from templates directly to Wikipedia:Projekt Gutenberg-DE (as {{PGDA}} does). Wikiacc () 21:40, 7 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Note there should probably not be an interwiki link from the essay to articles in other Wikipedias. 1234qwer1234qwer4 (talk) 22:44, 7 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Good point. Removed. Wikiacc () 23:47, 7 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • History merge and delete the redirects per nom and
    WP:HISTMERGE. --Soumya-8974 talk contribs subpages 09:06, 8 June 2020 (UTC)[reply
    ]
  • Delete carefully. (If I understand correctly, a histmerge will work.) You mustn't delete the history, but as long as it's preserved and accessible and referenced from the later versions of the same content, that's sufficient. If this weren't an issue, I'd say delete away, because this isn't one of those rare redirects that really should exist from mainspace to projectspace. Nyttend (talk) 11:28, 8 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Common Sense( Scottish Magazine)

The following is an archived discussion concerning one or more redirects. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on an appropriate discussion page (such as the redirect's
talk page or in a deletion review
). No further edits should be made to this section.
The result of the discussion was Trainwreck/No Consensus. In the purest sense,
WP:TRAINWRECK isn't a !vote per se, but rather an outcome from participation. It's clear from participants here that there's no good way to meaningfully participate against such a huge, indiscriminate list, and it's unreasonable to ask it. Each and any of these can be nominated, and small batches with similar ages and constructs or themes works well, but 80+ pages with varying characteristics is too much to ask. ~ Amory (u • t • c) 01:31, 15 June 2020 (UTC)[reply

Malformed disambiguation (incorrect bracket typography); almost no pageviews, with the maximum of three over the last months reached by only two of the redirects. 1234qwer1234qwer4 (talk) 20:28, 7 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

The DoD kept the Guantanamo captives' identities a secret, until forced to reveal them by a court order, in early 2006. They published two lists, on 2006-04-20, and 2006-05-15. Literally thousands of news papers republished these lists, in 2006. Most of those instances are 404. Some remain. The redirect is for individuals who come across the name there.
No, the name is not "malformed" in the way 1234qwer1234qwer4 means. There was shocking world-class incompetence at Guantanamo, and this is how the name appears on the official list, missing closing parentheses, and all.
Good faith contributors have made similar challenges to other apparently malformed yet legitimate names from that list, and those all concluded with a keep, which is what I recommend for this one. Geo Swan (talk) 21:06, 7 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
@Geo Swan: Thank you; I struck it. That was the same case as this one, right? 1234qwer1234qwer4 (talk) 21:09, 7 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
These redirects were used.

I checked to see how often these redirects were used. I stopped when I got to the 8th entry Bhagyarekha_(_TV_series), which was used 5,246 times. (This is more than half the number for the target article...)

I suggest none of these should be deleted if they were used. Our current engine for counting usage begins in 2015. We no longer have stats for prior to 2015. The stats are updated once a day, so none of the visits, today, by those weighing in in this discussion got counted. Geo Swan (talk) 22:00, 9 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Infobox UNESCO World Heritage Site does not use Wikidata. * Pppery * it has begun... 20:03, 7 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

For background, see Template_talk:Infobox_UNESCO_World_Heritage_Site/Archive_1#RfC:_revert_back_to_non-Wikidata_version?. I'm still bitter about this one, so I'll say no more. Mike Peel (talk) 21:12, 7 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep – The redirect target is clear about the use of Wikidata, see
    WP:CCC, so if and when such option would come to the table a preliminary discussion should take place, not just the re-creation of a Wikidata-template that nobody has on their watchlist any more (because it no longer exists). --Francis Schonken (talk) 05:17, 10 June 2020 (UTC)[reply
    ]
Also the talk page of the redirect, Template talk:Infobox World Heritage Site/Wikidata, links to a previous deletion discussion: if the redirect were deleted, that link to the deletion discussion would, obviously, also be deleted, which I think would be very undesirable: via that link a non-suspecting user can inform themselves why the template page is a redirect, and not an independent template. --Francis Schonken (talk) 10:42, 10 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was speedy retarget to Covfefe. Completely uncontroversial, and clearly intended to direct to the page on "Covfefe". Paintspot Infez (talk) 00:26, 8 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hashtag Covfefe to covfefe, "despite the constant negative press" coverage. --Soumya-8974 talk contribs subpages 17:31, 7 June 2020 (UTC)[reply

"Durchgangslager" (transit camps—such as

Drancy transit camp) were not Nazi concentration camps and are not discussed in that article. (The "types of camps" section was deleted as misleading, see talk page.) Should be deleted to encourage article creation. buidhe 10:27, 7 June 2020 (UTC)[reply

Not mentioned at the target, internet searches suggest that this term has been used to refer to myriad other economic crashes. I would suggest either deletion or redirection to

Unlikely search term. The FCC puts "D" as a prefix in its systems for deleted call signs, or apparently in this case, ahead of a call sign swap. Doesn't need to stick around.

The result of the discussion was speedy keep. I'm convinced by the various keep votes, no need to leave this open. signed, Rosguill talk 00:55, 9 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

The CSR was never referred to as a "Chinese SSR". Delete unless evidence to the contrary can be provided. signed, Rosguill talk 02:32, 7 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep and tag {{R from incorrect name}}. It is inconceviable that a person typing this could want any other subject matter, and the fact that it was a "Soviet Republic" instead of a "Soviet Socialist Republic" is exactly the sort of trivia that a searcher might not know (because they have not read the article). --NYKevin 03:21, 7 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep per NYKevin. Captain Galaxy (talk) 21:24, 8 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

These terms are not synonyms. Company town refers to a specific phenomenon where virtually an entire town is owned and run by a single company. "Corporate city" appears to be used more broadly; a google scholar search for the term shows several papers that seem to apply the label "corporate city" to refer to modern cities dominated by corporate office buildings. I would suggest deletion due to the lack of a suitable target. signed, Rosguill talk 02:27, 7 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
