• Extreme mexican goat sodomy → Zoophilia (links to redirect • history • stats)     [ Closure: keep/delete ] 

Is this really a plausible search term? Or is it just an attempt to slander Mexicans? BrownHairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 19:33, 9 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete no incoming links, not a plausible search term. can't believe this has been here for five years. Beeblebrox (talk) 20:04, 9 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
• Speedy delete - there are brief references in the target to Ancient Egyptians and Ancient Greeks but none about Mexicans hence it is misleading and unhelpful. I can find no reason why this redirect was created. The Whispering Wind (talk) 23:28, 9 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete probably a very old vandalism. Good catch.--Lenticel ^(talk) 12:13, 10 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
• Speedy delete per WP:G3. — PinkAmpers&^{(Je vous invite à me parler)} 19:51, 11 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

On reflection PinkAmpersand is correct; this is a clear G3. I have tagged the page and uprated my recommendation above. The Whispering Wind (talk) 20:33, 11 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was Retarget to Presidency of Abraham Lincoln. (non-admin closure) Steel1943 (talk) 04:56, 18 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

• Lincoln Administration → Template:Lincoln cabinet (links to redirect • history • stats)     [ Closure: keep/delete ] 

Seems like an inappropriate cross-namespace redirect. It should be retargeted or deleted to allow for the creation of an article. — This, that and the other (talk) 01:53, 9 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

• Retarget to Presidency of Abraham Lincoln unless there's also other head of states with the surname Lincoln. --Lenticel ^(talk) 03:00, 9 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
• Retarget per Lenticel. A shame to mess with such an old redirect, but clearly necessary. — PinkAmpers&^{(Je vous invite à me parler)} 07:24, 9 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

 Done. I'm not closing this, but that's clearly a better target. Emmette Hernandez Coleman (talk) 13:44, 9 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

• Retarget to Presidency of Abraham Lincoln seems just fine. The Whispering Wind (talk) 22:42, 9 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
