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

Redirects to the only page that links to it. Leigh Hamilton 11:12, 19 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep - seems a plausible name formation. Harmless and no policy-compliant grounds for deletion have been presented. The Whispering Wind (talk) 22:33, 19 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep. We should go with Double Shot (WW) on this one. There is another similar redirect, Eraclea Mare, which is also sometimes spelled as one word, Eracleamare. It is a lido (beach) that is important to Eraclea's economy. All of this is explained in the article, so these are both valid redirects to an alpha-target. Additionally, both redirects are nearly five years old, so the What links here page, which only gives us internal English Wikipedia links, says nothing about the links from outside Wikipedia. After nearly five years they could be numerous, and we don't want to break them, do we? – Paine Ellsworth ^CLIMAX! 03:12, 29 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

• Sacred cave → Sacred caves of Crete (links to redirect • history • stats)     [ Closure: keep/delete ] 

Delete; sacred caves are a more generic concept and are not limited only to Crete. _{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 03:42, 19 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete per nom. -- 70.24.249.39 (talk) 04:55, 20 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
• Retarget to Caves#Archaeological_and_cultural_importance which discusses how sacred things such as religious practices and burial rites were done in caves.--Lenticel ^(talk) 04:54, 22 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Comment I've added a cited entry about Sacred Cave in the new target article and also included the old target just in case some external links might be broken by the retargetting.--Lenticel ^(talk) 05:03, 22 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

• Retarget to Caves#Archaeological_and_cultural_importance - good work by :Lenticel. The Whispering Wind (talk) 13:53, 22 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep 'n retarget per The Whispering Wind & Lenticel (kudes!) – Paine Ellsworth ^CLIMAX! 03:23, 29 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
