• Redirect to Youth detention center - The headmeads site returns a 404. It looks like part of it may have moved to youngminds.org.uk, but I couldn't find the jargon buster page. The essay puts forth the same concept as a youth detention center. Orville1974 (talk) 07:02, 2 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • @Orville1974: I think the new URL is http://web.archive.org/web/20150116012957/http://www.headmeds.org.uk/about/medfacts-jargon-buster Лисан аль-Гаиб (talk) 14:58, 2 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

This article describes youth detention centers throughout, only mentioning a psychiatric setting in the last sentence (making that sentence align with the headmeds article above). Was it meant to be a disambiguation of different secure units for children: Youth detention center and psychiatric wards (under "inpatient treatment") in the Psychiatry article?

• If someone wants to write a referenced article on the subject, that's fine. But what we have wont do. Better to turn it into a redirect to Youth detention center which is another name for a similar thing. Rathfelder (talk) 16:34, 3 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
• Redirect, The subject is interesting can be moved to other articles such as the one suggested by Orville1974, Alex-h (talk) 09:16, 7 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
• Redirect - to Youth detention center. The concepts appear to be similar enough that they can be covered in a single article, rather than being WP:SPLIT into a stub. Rorshacma (talk) 18:24, 7 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
