• Singer, songwriter, and dancer → List of entertainer occupations  (talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ] 

This targets to a standalone list that includes Singer and Dancer, no Songwriter. A reader knows that these occupations individually could be called entertainers. There are individual pages for each. What the reader would be looking for is a combined occupation, or entertainers who are adept in all the three fields. And we'll get a good idea of such persons if the text "Singer, songwriter, and dancer" gave uninhibited search results instead. No article references this redirect and the pageviews are negligible.

• Speedy keep No valid rationale provided for deletion. None of those policies apply to redirects. Mlb96 (talk) 06:05, 2 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep. No policy reason to delete; mentioned in the article; no better alternative. Any BLP issues are for the article not the redirect. Shhhnotsoloud (talk) 07:49, 2 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
• Only mentioned in article because creator of redirect continues to add subject to article. He's just a random game show contestant. Fails guidelines listed above.

**Beware of false accusations of sockpuppetry. That can get you booted from here. That's assuming you don't get booted for edit-warring first. ←Baseball Bugs ^{What's up, Doc?} carrots→ 13:50, 2 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep those are reasons he shouldn't have an article, not that there shouldn't be a redirect to what he's notable-ish for. Star Mississippi 13:30, 2 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep - No valid reason given for deletion beyond the editor's personal opinion. ←Baseball Bugs ^{What's up, Doc?} carrots→ 14:06, 2 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep - at the present time, the redirect directs readers to relevant information about the individual. The target is tagged for deletion; if it is deleted then this will be deleted per
  WP:G8 as long as there's not an RFD discussion banner in place at the time. Consider withdrawing this and letting the deletion discussion play out as it should. Ivanvector's squirrel (^trees/_nuts) 18:34, 2 August 2021 (UTC)[reply

• Die deutsche rechtschreibung → German orthography reform of 1996  (talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ] 

Literally means "German orthography" (misspelt/miscapitalised, should be "Rechtschreibung"); not sure why this should be redirecting to the reform. ~~~~

• Retarget to German orthography per {{R from other capitalisation}} (failing to capitalize German nouns is a simple mistake for an English speaker). Ivanvector's squirrel (^trees/_nuts) 18:38, 2 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • R from incorrect capitalisation}}. If I recall, it used to be the rule only to use the "capitalisation" cats when that was the only difference, but I think that's been relaxed. The link Die deutsche Rechtschreibung is red, as are Deutsche Rechtschreibung (the German article title) and Deutsche rechtschreibung. 85.67.32.244 (talk) 22:31, 2 August 2021 (UTC)[reply

    {{R from incorrect capitalisation|of=Die deutsche Rechtschreibung}} would probably be appropriate. ~~~~

• Viperine Snake → Natrix maura  (talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ] 

This is a common name that redirect to the scientific name, but should it instead redirect to Viperinae, as a broad term for the entire family? I think so. It would be consistant with how Elapid snake redirects to Elapidae. Senator2029 ❮talk❯ 19:01, 1 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
