"Mating" and "Marriage" are not remotely the same thing. Unless a suitable target can be identified, this should be deleted. 192.76.8.66 (talk) 22:24, 31 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Could just as easily redirect to Durham,_North_Carolina#Government. I don't think that a redirect to the former English city is warranted here, though I do wonder if a dab is appropriate for something like this. — Red-tailed hawk (nest) 02:52, 31 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Durham City Council is ambiguous even in England and could refer to:
  • The parish council of Durham, England (currently existing, although they call themselves City of Durham Parish Council)
  • The district council of
    Durham (district)
    (1974-2009)
  • The council of Durham and Framwelgate before 1974.

This redirect was originally tagged as CSD G3 vandalism. I don't see how it's vandalism but I also don't understand how it is a valid name for this historic person. I did a search for "Elizabeth Ambatukam Siddall" and got no results. Liz Read! Talk! 02:20, 31 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete I helped bring this the Elizabeth Siddall article to Good Article status & have over 250 edits on the article. I have never encountered the string "Elizabeth Ambatukam Siddall" in any source. I think it is utter nonsense. Peaceray (talk) 02:54, 31 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete there is no such thing as "Elizabeth Ambatukam Siddall", the vandal added "ambatukam" there (which is euphemism for "i am about to cum (semen)") as a joke it seems like. It has no place in an encyclopedia, unless proven otherwise.

Thanks for the explanation, Cactus Ronin. No wonder this name didn't pop up in any of my searches. I'd delete this redirect myself but I already nominated it so that makes me involved. Liz Read! Talk! 18:55, 31 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment Taivorist commented in Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion/Log/2023 June 15#Elizabeth Ambatukam Eleanor Siddall I created the redirect, because at that time Ambatukam was in the article and the article itself was on main page in "Did you know ..." section. If I cannot trust main page articles, what can I trust? You see, correct answer is "you cannot trust anything in Wikipedia." I remember, that I was surprised, because this is not English name, but actually I do not know, is the name correct or not. Do as you want, but I do not feel myself guilty. I will also note that "Ambatukam" was introduced with this edit & deleted 2 hours & 20 minutes later with this edit.

Could also point to Curious George (film), a 2006 film in which he voiced a character, and where this pointed before yesterday. In any case, I don't think redirecting this to any particular film makes sense (there does not seem to be one film he's particularly known for), and it may well be better to leave this a redlink than to pick-and-choose. — Red-tailed hawk (nest) 02:15, 31 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
