  • Delete - The three redirects to Supertalk Mississippi from a non notable radio station manager's name; ex presenter's name and the name of an ex show go back to a web of redirects and user pages masquerading as article pages created by sockpuppetry in about 2010 in the User:Arpierson1993 case. The names at the Category:Suspected Wikipedia sockpuppets of Arpierson1993 there and those user pages are particularly interesting. None of the three terms redirected currently are mentioned on the target page (nor is there any material likelihood any reasonable person would consider the material on the page might relate to them) and it doesn't seem very likely to me they should be in the future. When they appeared before it was only as entries in long lists of non notable radio station employees; non notable former employees, and non notable defunct shows that formerly filled the page with trivia, spam station promotion and vanity listing of employees names. It is not remotely likely any wikipedia user would want to search for Supertalk Mississippi using the terms in these redirects. Sid Salter seems to be a PR professional working for Mississippi State University where any redirect for him should have gone if he was mentioned on that page but he doesn't seem to be anyway. The redirects being considered are not referenced by any material article page links nor does there seem any reasonable chance of losing useful links to old page material by deleting them. I created much of the content currently at Supertalk Mississippi but have no COI to declare. Indeed I have never set foot in Mississippi or the United States. I listened to the station whilst editing its Wikipedia page and found it interesting. <aside>It does seem to me there is a weak parallel between the legal case reported at Supertalk Mississippi#College athletes' image rights where Supertalk was accused of pinching college athlete's image rights for its own commercial benefit and this situation where the firm's PR team built a web of redirects and bogus article pages using the names of staff and ex staff as a link farm to promote its own wikipedia page.</aside> I am grateful to User:MB for placing these pages in the list to be considered for deletion.Ed1964 (talk) 05:54, 14 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was delete. ✗plicit 00:06, 21 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The creator of this redirect cited this New Yorker article, but I'm not sure that's enough. The destination doesn't mention TikTok, so someone searching for it might be served just as well by TikTok, and it's also likely to age poorly, as future wars will also be fought on TikTok assuming the platform survives. Lastly, my read of the media coverage is that "first TikTok war" is being used more as a descriptor (e.g. "it's the first war fought on TikTok") than as a proper name (e.g. "I fought in the First TikTok War"), and as such I don't think it makes as much sense as a redirect. {{u|Sdkb}} talk 21:06, 13 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Generic phrase.

Ground Zero is mentioned once in the target article, in the infobox, which doesn't strike me as sufficient for the redirect to be useful.

There is an "untitled" future project listed at the target page, but the use of the phrase like this is both unlikely and could assume there is a project by this specific name. (The redirect was an article for a day in 2012, and the content looks as though it refers to Transformers: Age of Extinction.) Steel1943 (talk) 19:03, 13 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I declined R3 (implausible, recently created redirect) speedy deletion. I think that the disambiguation page now at Gasper (disambiguation) should be at Gasper, reversing the original move to make this a redirect by TatesTopG. {{Nihiltres |talk |edits}} 18:12, 13 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Polefield appears to be an area in or near Prestwich, but isn't mentioned in the target, or in any other article in sufficient depth to be worth retargeting. My inquiry at the target talk page didn't reveal any interest in adding a mention to make this redirect useful to the reader. – Arms & Hearts (talk) 15:47, 13 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Polefield is a well-attested historical place - see https://prestwich.org.uk/history/places/polefield.html. Polefield House didn't survive the 20th century, and I suppose it is all built over now. Has become a street name. Simple removal of the redirect is not the best solution here. Charles Matthews (talk) 16:16, 13 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
@Charles Matthews: If a sourced mention can be added to the target I'd be happy to withdraw this nomination. In cases like these I make a point of beginning a talk page discussion before going to RfD in the hopes of arriving at that outcome. But having a redirect that fails to take readers to any relevant information is, in my view, worse than having no redirect at all. – Arms & Hearts (talk) 16:44, 13 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
My attitude is that typing here is less constructive than typing on the target page. Charles Matthews (talk) 16:47, 13 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
That's unfortunate because this is where redirects are supposed to be discussed. But to Arms & Hearts' point, I agree: If the content is added to the target page, this redirect could/should continue to exist, but if not, it should be deleted. (So, to make my "vote" official: delete unless a mention is added to the target page.) Steel1943 (talk) 19:08, 13 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep. This is a plausible search term for someone looking for the parts of the world that have/have had French linguistic and/or cultural heritage (c.f.
    Francosphere). The lead of the article says it "is an international organization representing countries and regions where French is a lingua franca or customary language, where a significant proportion of the population are francophones (French speakers), or where there is a notable affiliation with French culture." - i.e. exactly what someone will be looking for. There is also a hatnote to Geographical distribution of French speakers. Disambiguating per the IP is my second choice. Thryduulf (talk) 06:58, 8 August 2022 (UTC)[reply
