• Various Network → Computer network (links to redirect • history • stats)     [ Closure: keep/delete ] 

terrible redirect based on the previous content at this entry, not on the title; the title is pretty much meaningless and not an obvious search term Hairhorn (talk) 19:15, 19 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

• Retarget to Network: an awkward name does not guarantee the lack of users. With 15 hits/month this should be here. — Dmitrij D. Czarkoff (talk) 19:28, 19 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
• Retarget per Dimitrij 76.65.128.198 (talk) 06:21, 20 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
• Retarget per Dimitrij, not exactly the best solution but I guess it's worth it --Lenticel ^(talk) 15:07, 23 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

• Kapferer → Bruce Kapferer (links to redirect • history • stats)     [ Closure: keep/delete ] 

Deletion. Bruce is not the only person with this surname(there is, for instance, a notable early aviator caled Henry Kapferer. TheLongTone (talk) 21:25, 19 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep: I see no other article with this name in title. If You believe that there is a notable person with this name, write an article first. — Dmitrij D. Czarkoff (talk) 02:21, 20 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was Retraget to List of principal and guide meridians and base lines of the United States. Ruslik_Zero 11:14, 31 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

• Guide Meridian → Washington State Route 539 (links to redirect • history • stats)     [ Closure: keep/delete ] 

This may be mistargeted. While the highway certainly is known as Guide Meridian, this is also a term that is part of the Public Land Survey System - however, that article doesn't define the term and barely mentions it. I don't think the highway is really the primary topic for this term, and the survey term is. D O N D E groovily Talk to me 05:30, 19 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

• Disambiguate, we have List of principal and guide meridians and base lines of the United States, and there's wiktionary, if someone would write a definition there. 76.65.128.198 (talk) 07:00, 19 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
• Disambiguate: the wording is generic enough to have yet more possible meanings (eg., some uses may be outside the US). DAB would help to catch them all. — Dmitrij D. Czarkoff (talk) 02:23, 20 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
• Disambiguate or Retarget List of principal and guide meridians and base lines of the United States. It seems that most of the guide meridians listed in the article are still red links.--Lenticel ^(talk) 15:09, 23 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
