European super league

edit

The following is an archived discussion concerning one or more redirects. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on an appropriate discussion page (such as the redirect's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this section.
The result of the discussion was retarget. --BDD (talk) 15:45, 29 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Currently targets Super League, but should target European Super League. I made the change, but was reverted by User:Fleets, apparently for not explaining it; I thought it was so obvious it doesn't need an explanation. If European Super League is a disambiguation page (and it should be, as there are a number of sports leagues by that name), the uncapitalised version should redirect there. I don't see a good reason for sending it somewhere else. Super League may sometimes be known as 'European super league', but I don't see any evidence that it's the clear primary usage here. (This redirect was only created 3 days ago, and isn't linked from any other articles.) Robofish (talk) 22:01, 22 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Support. No reason why this would go to anything other than the disambig. Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski (talkcontribs) 08:17, 23 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was delete. --BDD (talk) 15:47, 29 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

This redirect resulted from a pagemove in 2008, after the apparent misnaming of the newly-created Kirbymoorside railway station article. However, I can't see it serving any purpose (no inbound links, 3 pageviews in the whole of 2020) and propose deletion. Rcsprinter123 (inform) 21:43, 22 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

MSDOSSYS.STS

edit

The following is an archived discussion concerning one or more redirects. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on an appropriate discussion page (such as the redirect's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this section.
The result of the discussion was keep. signed, Rosguill talk 00:09, 6 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Delete: the target article makes no mention of MSDOSSYS.STS, and AFAICT, never had. Crash48 (talk) 18:14, 22 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep MSDOSSYS.STS is a Microsoft Windows 95/98/SE/ME alternative configuration file used in Safe Mode booting. The redirect is marked to be a redirect with possibilities and at some point in the future it should probably be discussed in an article discussing the Windows Safe Mode booting procedure in better details. For now, it at least helps readers running into this filename somewhere to point them to a generic description of Windows safe mode booting, so they at least get the context. Per WP:REDIR purposes, redirect topics do not need to be mentioned "as is" in the target article (although they often are within practical limits), they only need to be contextually related and useful. As there is no conflict with another topic of this name, deleting the redirect would not serve any purpose, but would destroy already set up infrastructure. I have a pile of old documentation on these bits, but it's archived at present. --Matthiaspaul (talk) 19:13, 22 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
So I'm one of those readers running into this filename somewhere who found the redirect entirely unhelpful. The target article provides zero context: all it currently explains is how to enter Safe Mode. The relevant guideline is WP:R#DELETE no.10: If the redirect could plausibly be expanded into an article, and the target article contains virtually no information on the subject. --Crash48 (talk) 20:26, 22 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
But the article already establishes a context, so if the reader ran into the file and was wondering what it is, s/he at least knows that it is related to Windows Safe Mode. That's more than "virtually nothing". And it is also more than leaving the reader totally clueless if the redirect would not have existed at all (or would be deleted). Sure, more could be written about it (and probably will at some point in the future), but that's not a good reason to delete as deleting is not an improvement, adding more contents is. Rome wasn't built in a day, contents and infrastructure aren't necessary built at the same time (nor necessarily by the same people) in a collaborative project.
No, the reader wouldn't know that MSDOSSYS.STS is related to Windows Safe Mode because the article on Safe mode is not specific to Windows. That was my own experience as a reader wondering what MSDOSSYS.STS is and remaining totally clueless after landing at Safe mode article. --Crash48 (talk) 10:40, 23 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
WP:R#KEEP #3 ("They aid searches on certain terms. For example, if someone sees the "Keystone State" mentioned somewhere but does not know what that refers to, then he or she will be able to find out at the Pennsylvania (target) article.") and #4 ("Someone finds them useful. Hint: If someone says they find a redirect useful, they probably do. You might not find it useful—this is not because the other person is being untruthful, but because you browse Wikipedia in different ways") apply.
--Matthiaspaul (talk) 21:26, 22 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
KEEP#3 certainly doesn't apply; an equivalent case would be if Greenburr redirected to Pennsylvania on the grounds of "Well it's a tiny locality in PA, never mind that the article on PA doesn't, and needn't, mention it". Note how most of place names under Category:Lists of places in Pennsylvania are redlinked, and don't just redirect to random articles for "context". --Crash48 (talk) 10:40, 23 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Virtually no African American identifies as African. So the redirect is a misnomer. Additionally, the target article contains very little information about African Americans. A suitable target would be Americans in Finland, but that article doesn't exist. Rsk6400 (talk) 14:08, 22 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was retarget, to Vacuum ejector and Eduction, and keep, respectively. --BDD (talk) 20:03, 18 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

It seems that these three (Eductor-jet pump, Eductors, Edutor) should probably go to the same place, but I don't know which place that is. I stumbled upon this situation while cleaning up Eduction. Note, too, that I redirected Educt to Eduction, in case anyone has other opinions about that one. Cnilep (talk) 06:44, 31 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment from proposer: Since no one has expressed an idea yet, let me ask this. Are there any objections to (re)targeting both 'Eductor' and 'Eductors' to the disambiguation 'Eduction', and leaving 'Eductor-jet pump' as the status quo (pointing to 'Injector')? Better suggestions are, of course, welcome. Cnilep (talk) 23:38, 7 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Retarget eductor-jet pump to Vacuum ejector. It's a piece of kit which will be familiar to anyone who's ever worked in a high school, university or industrial laboratory. It's given as an alternative name in the infobox. (I knew what I was looking for, but it was the devil to find. I would call it a water pump.) Narky Blert (talk) 16:45, 22 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

While this does appear to sometimes be a slang term for fentanyl, it also is a word in its own right. I'm not really sure whether a wiktionary redirect or deletion is more appropriate here. signed, Rosguill talk 15:20, 15 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

This is not a plausible redirect to keep, nor does the target mention anything about killing. There is no "Criticism" section on the target page. Also, it meets criteria 3 of deleting redirects.
