Even if I say so myself, I think that the draft disambig article has turned out to be a good outcome of this discussion. Incidentally, Google search turns up fewer direct uses of the phrase than are listed, because it contains logical 'synomyns'.--Red King (talk) 21:23, 9 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Question for 59.149.124.29, what exactly is "marginal" about Syracuse.com?

    • @Dmehus: My exact words were "marginal-looking". In particular, the "byline" on the Syracuse.com piece is the name of a zoo rather than the name of a journalist, which made it look like a reprint of a press release or native advertising or something similar.

Customs and Immigration

talk page or in a deletion review
). No further edits should be made to this section.
The result of the discussion was no consensus. I realize how unsatisfying this is bound to be, but there simply isn't consensus for any one course of action. By my count, the thinnest plurality favored deletion, but this was still ultimately a minority position. Nor was there the sort of unanimous consensus against the status quo that would make me call no consensus but still retarget somewhere. Should anyone want to try creating a broad-concept article as discussed, that might be welcome. --BDD (talk) 19:23, 20 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

No action recommended, just looking for feedback about the redirect. Prisencolin (talk) 01:19, 7 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

My thoughts for this redirect were that "Customs and Immigration", especially in that order, is most likely to refer to the process at airports. Customs, a related topic, is another possibility, with government agencies being a less likely intended search target. as far as I can tell, the only government agency with an article on Wikipedia that includes "Customs and Immigration" in their names in that order is States of Jersey Customs and Immigration Service. Confusingly, the previous target for this redirect, U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), doesn't actually conduct customs checks at borders, a task left to U.S. Customs and Border Protection. ICE is mostly known for carrying out deportations. signed, Rosguill talk 01:44, 7 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • I question the value of this redirect. Immigration and customs doesn't exist, even though in my experience that's the usual order of processing. Land and sea routes are also important, notably in Europe. One role of the UK Border Force is to check for illegal immigrants, so that checking the contents of a lorry is a combined customs and immigration operation. Narky Blert (talk) 06:39, 7 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

    bold retarget to a more appropriate target. --Doug Mehus T·C 13:46, 7 February 2020 (UTC)[reply
    ]
Narky Blert, Dmehus, how would you feel about Customs as a potential target? signed, Rosguill talk 21:29, 7 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Rosguill Glancing at the sections of the article, it does focus on immigration enforcement and customs, import tariffs, and so forth, but it's actually not that great. I'd actually prefer to see Customs move to Customs and immigration, with Customs continuing as a redirect to the section on Customs. Or, instead of a redirect, Customs would then become a dab page for border-related "Customs" and topics related to social and political customs and traditions. Or, alternatively, if editors want to have a separate article on more immigration-related topics, then dab-ifying Customs and immigration. As to the order of the title, in Canada, as well as the United States, "customs" usually comes first and, alphabetically, this seems to make sense. Doug Mehus T·C 21:35, 7 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
duty-free goods on reentering UK. (That redirect is very poor. All purchases made outside UK were subject to customs duty, up to a personal limit of something like 200 cigs and a bottle of booze. At one time, there was even a limit on the amount of money you could bring into UK on returning.) Narky Blert (talk) 21:46, 7 February 2020 (UTC)[reply

Comment. There is history, even recent history, in this. Immigration and customs aren't always about just routinely showing your papers to and opening your suitcase for a couple of bored officials. (1) In 1959, we went on a family holiday to northern Spain. The second or third day there, my father was up early in the morning with a pair of binoculars, birdwatching, when he encountered a policeman. To avoid possible trouble, he volunteered in broken Spanish an explanation of what he was doing; but the policeman just smiled, and said, We know. (2) In 1964, I went on a school trip to Russia. One of my friends had an orange, and the customs officer made him peel it. Why? So that he couldn't sell it on the black market. (3) In 1968, my parents were in Czechoslovakia when the Soviets invaded. They were advised to, and did, leave in a hurry. Neither the Czechoslovak nor the Austrian border guards had the slightest interest in their papers or in what they might be carrying; nor in those of anyone else crossing in the same direction. Narky Blert (talk) 22:11, 7 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Comment. I'd support a
WP:BCA, which need only be very short; effectively, an annotated list of targets. I would not support a DAB, because there are no full title matches. Narky Blert (talk) 15:40, 14 February 2020 (UTC)[reply

  • delete (or...) per Steel1943. Plus, the search engine is good enough to find both "Customs" and "Immigration" - Nabla (talk) 11:22, 22 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
PS: I think deleting is still better than "border control" (although it is better than "customs" or "emmigration") - Nabla (talk) 20:20, 4 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Retarget to Border control, which covers both topics. If "customs and immigration" (or "customs, immigration and quarantine") are combined together, they usually refer to the processes in the context of border control. feminist (talk) 09:44, 24 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Neutral on either delete-ing, per Steel1943 below, or retarget-ing to Border control, per feminist above. It's not necessarily ideal in that I'm not sure that article is appropriately titled, but I would concur that both aspects are broadly discussed. I would add {{R to related topic}}, {{R from synonym}} (broadly speaking, it is), {{R for convenience}}, and any other rcats as may be appropriate. I would also encourage feminist to participate in some other close discussions—their participation is invaluable and welcome! Doug Mehus T·C 17:37, 24 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

    I maintain my support for targeting Border control, because when "customs and immigration" is used as a combined concept it is usually in reference to border control (including at international airports, seaports, train stations etc.). Readers rarely combine the two concepts in any other context. feminist (talk) 02:18, 3 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment Noting Steel1943's convincing counter-argument to retargeting to border control, I thought the suggestion was better than any of the other targets identified, but I was never completely satisfied with that target. I now think either retargeting per feminist or deletion per Steel1943 is probably best here, to encourage article, including a broad concept article, creation. What I'm only opposed to is to retargeting to Customs or Immigration. Revised and amended. Doug Mehus T·C 18:32, 2 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was withdrawn. I wanted to allow time for Plantdrew to comment if he wanted to, but especially with the listing period having passed the one-week mark, there's no reason not to prefer the valid nematode article with hatnote. Thanks all! --BDD (talk) 21:09, 16 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

As far as I can tell, this is an erroneous form of the actual bird family, Leptosomidae. Since I had tagged the redirect accordingly, I was pinged by JoergenB on the talk page, who informed me that it was the name of a nematode family. It's listed at List of nematode families, though I would not recommend retargeting there, since no other families do.

However, this has redirected to the cuckoo roller since 2003, and there are reliable sources, like ITIS, that give it for the bird. I'm still leaning towards deletion in the interests of not promulgating the apparent error, but would like others' input. (Pinging my go-to taxonomy expert Plantdrew.) BDD (talk) 21:58, 8 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I created a stub for it as the nematode family. --awkwafaba (📥) 19:42, 9 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • keep In my opinion, the stub (although short) is worth to retain (in the hope of some expansion sooner or later, and since it at least has valid sources and a valid taxobox, and a disambiguating hatnote). This would make the RfD moot, wouldn't it? JoergenB (talk) 20:09, 9 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was Delete all. Ruslik_Zero 18:54, 19 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

This redirect says almost nothing about English's future (nor its future tense for that matter). The Italian one says literally nothing about it. I would suggest deletion for both. signed, Rosguill talk 19:50, 8 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Note I've gone ahead and added Future of French for the same reason as the originally nominated redirects. I'm inclined to leave the Portuguese ones alone, if only because there's actually a section discussing projected future trends in the distribution of Portuguese. signed, Rosguill talk 01:36, 9 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Not sure how I had missed that section for French. I'm fine with keeping that redirect. signed, Rosguill talk 23:36, 9 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Fwiw, there are corresponding sections for the other languages too: Italian conjugation#The future and Future tense#English. – Uanfala (talk) 13:59, 10 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete all as ambiguous. But even if we ignored the meaning intended by their creator and instead decided that they should only refer to the future tense of the respective languages, then they're still problematic. They use one of the many ways of descriptively referring to the topic (Future tense in French, Future in French, French future, etc.), and I see no reason why we should have any of them. We just don't have redirects at such a low level of granularity for individual grammars. – Uanfala (talk) 01:53, 15 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I wasn't including those views—that's why I said since the day of and the day after. But what kind of an argument is "it doesn't need to redirect to anything because you can Google it"? What redirects couldn't you apply that argument to? There are all kinds of redirects between Wikipedia and Wiktionary when one has an article on something and the other doesn't. Readers turn to Wikimedia projects because they're looking for reliable information, not random contributions by teenagers trying to impress their friends or flame their rivals, or someone just guessing what something is about. If Wiktionary has an entry on an idiom, and Wikipedia doesn't, but readers who don't know that might try looking it up, then a redirect of this kind is utterly cromulent.
