  • Delete: If it has no sources at Afghanistan, .af (the redirect target), Template:ccTLD, and web searches turn up nothing, then it's hearsay. Recommend checking web archives before finalizing a decision, just to be absolutely certain. — CJDOS, Sheridan, OR (talk) 18:51, 4 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete - The current target is certainly unsuitable since there is not discussion of Afghanistan specifically. Mention appears to have been removed from Afghanistan and from .af (if it was ever mentioned there). If it turns out to be verifiable and mention can be re-added (presumably to .af) then this redirect could be recreated, but without any evidence this exists, and hence without any discussion of it, this should be deleted.

Oppose: That's obviously silly and unhelpful. There's clearly American content in the general treatment of science fiction even though they're so central that they aren't cleaved off into a separate section. Even if that weren't the case (which it is),
WP:POINTY to suggest otherwise and it'd be more helpful for the project if you found more helpful redirects to create instead of blanking any unless they're clearly pointing to bogus or easter-eggy pages. That isn't the case here at all. — LlywelynII 13:06, 3 June 2023 (UTC)[reply

Trailing punctuation, unlikely search term. Only 18 pageviews in the whole of 2022, if that were significantly higher it may be worth keeping but since that isn't the case, it is better off deleted. - CHAMPION (talk) (contributions) (logs) 07:11, 27 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete. Unless there is proof this redirect with the full stop is used in some sort of actual way besides the end of a sentence, redirects like this usually do get deleted per
    WP:COSTLY, considering that it's both not a likely search term and this should be deleted to encourage editors not to link this. Steel1943 (talk) 15:06, 3 June 2023 (UTC)[reply

Thank you, Steel1943. I honestly didn't notice the full stop as part of the redirect itself; I thought it was outside the link brackets. I shall reverse my vote. — CJDOS, Sheridan, OR (talk) 14:10, 8 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete per
    WP:COSTLY. Harmless, probably, but since we're here, nothing wrong with cleaning up junk that shouldn't have existed in the first place. Mdewman6 (talk) 18:14, 3 June 2023 (UTC)[reply
    ]
Keep Upon further thought, given the age of the redirect, it's possible it has collected some external links that we shouldn't break. I am generally in favor of cleanup of otherwise harmless redirects that shouldn't exist when feasible, but 18 page views in a year isn't nothing. Mdewman6 (talk) 18:33, 3 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep,
    let sleeping dogs lie. As a harmless redirect, there is nothing to be gained through deletion. Likewise, there is nothing to be gained by keeping it. However, deleting it requires a rather silly discussion so there is higher overall utility for the project by keeping the redirect and avoiding the silliness. -- Tavix (talk) 19:42, 3 June 2023 (UTC)[reply

The result of the discussion was speedy keep. Evidence provided that this is an obsolete name for the target. Withdrawing nomination. Mdewman6 (talk) 17:39, 3 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Not an alternative name for target. It does have a

benzoyl moiety, but the rest does not make sense. Not useful, delete unless there is some justification. Mdewman6 (talk) 00:36, 3 June 2023 (UTC)[reply

Thanks Graeme Bartlett for the detailed explanation. I see you added a mention at target. Definitely some confusing obsolete nomenclature! I'll close this discussion as speedy keep. Mdewman6 (talk) 17:35, 3 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
