The result of the discussion was no longer applicable as it has been converted to article. -- JLaTondre (talk) 02:35, 6 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

• Tiscali UK → Tiscali (links to redirect)

Housekeeping to allow for move of specific content from Tiscali article. Wikiwoohoo (talk) 20:49, 4 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Why not simply overwrite it, as suggested in the second paragraph of WP:RfD? Just cut and paste... and put in the edit summary that portion(s) of the Tiscali article were used to create the new one.147.70.242.43 (talk) 21:56, 4 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

• As the IP above corectly states, you can just turn Tiscali UK into an article without admin intervention. Keep, deleting the history is not necessary, and keeping it is better for documenting that the page started out as redirect. — Kusma ^talk 04:10, 5 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was delete all. King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 16:47, 12 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

• Gargantua Blargg → List of the Mario series characters (links to redirect)
• Air Bag (video game character) → List of the Mario series characters
• Robirdo → List of the Mario series characters
• Bandit (Yoshi) → List of the Mario series characters
• MIPS (character) → List of the Mario series characters
• Mr. I → List of the Mario series characters

The target does not mention these at all, and they will never be covered within the list at all. TTN (talk) 16:20, 4 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete, as they are all one-offs and fail notability requirements. They are unlikely to ever be covered in the list due to these notability issues, and thus the redirects will be confusing and misleading to users. --Taelus (talk) 23:32, 4 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was redirected to WorldPride. King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 16:51, 12 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

• worldpride → Europride (links to redirect)

This redirect should be retargetted to its own page under WorldPride as the two are seperate events. Further pages have been created for various WorldPride years such as WorldPride 2012 and these would be better as sections rather than pages. This removal of redirect will allow this Truthmonkey (talk) 14:28, 4 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

• Comment: There is another capitalisation of this redirect that should be grouped together with this one. WorldPride --> Europride. --Taelus (talk) 23:34, 4 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

• Comment: Well spotted, thank you! I am requesting that the current divert at WorldPride be similarly removed for the same reasons. I would expect there to be one new page not multiples. --Truthmonkey (talk) 10:53, 6 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

• I started the article World Pride now, and redirected both worldpride and WorldPride there. --Apoc2400 (talk) 21:18, 7 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

• That's shame you setup World Pride. The event name is WorldPride (one word) so that should be the core page with the others diverting to it. Can this be changed? --Truthmonkey (talk) 13:22, 12 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

• Mary Simpson → List of 1632 characters (links to redirect)
• Mary Simpson (1632 character) → List of 1632 characters (links to redirect)

A redirect to List of 1632 characters#Simpson, Mary with no coverage in the list. It *was* used in an inappropriate manner here (some real-world actress). fictional franchises have no claim on such common names for redirects. delete. Jack Merridew 05:58, 4 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

added the parenthetical one, too Cheers, Jack Merridew 06:05, 4 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

• Note. There are other Mary Simpsons listed when the Wikipedia search engine is used. See [1], [2], [3], [4], [5], [6], [7]... and that's just the beginning of the list.147.70.242.43 (talk) 21:31, 4 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
