• Galactus 77 → Galactus  (talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

The result of the discussion was retarget Sega Mobile to List of Sega mobile games, Delete Mobile Contents Development Dept.. Thryduulf (talk) 13:15, 30 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

• Sega Mobile → Sega  (talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ] 
• Mobile Contents Development Dept. → Sega  (talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ] 

Neither are mentioned in the target article. (Bundling since per the history of Sega Mobile, these two redirects may represent the same subject.) Steel1943 (talk) 00:39, 14 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete "Mobile Contents Development Dept." because this is potentially ambiguous with another company with a similarly named department and the target article contains no information about this department. Weak keep "Sega Mobile" because Sega discusses some mobile products and there's no competing target for this title. Deryck C. 16:40, 29 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

• Retarget Sega Mobile to List of Sega mobile games where it is mentioned, Delete Mobile Contents Development Dept. as not specific to Sega. Other companies might have that name. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 16:41, 29 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
• Retarget Sega Mobile per AngusWOOF. ~ Amory (u • t • c) 19:17, 29 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was populate. As of today "Category:Food and drink in Eswatini" has two members whereas "Category:Food and drink in Swaziland" is empty. Putting that together with the comments in this discussion, the appropriate course of action is to turn the category soft redirect into a category description page.

• Category:Food and drink in Eswatini → Category:Food and drink in Eswatini  (talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ] 

Category is a redirect to itself. (?) Liz ^{Read! Talk!} 20:27, 21 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

• Per the redirect's edit history, looks like this issue was created by Cydebot. With that being said, my opinion is "move back to Category:Food and drink in Swaziland without leaving a redirect" or "weak delete". Steel1943 (talk) 20:54, 21 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete or populate. As far as I can tell we don't currently have any category for food and drink in this country, and so we shouldn't have a redirect for one. Per the most recent outcome at CfD this would be the correct name for a category if we did have one so it should be populated if that is an option. If it is populated Category:Food and drink in Swaziland and Category:Food and drink in eSwatini should be created as redirects. Thryduulf (talk) 21:37, 21 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
• Populate since it is part of a well-established by-country category hierarchy (Category:Food and drink by country). I see at least two articles that could go in it: Cuisine of Eswatini and Swaziland Beverages Ltd. Not sure about e.g. umqombothi and all the other articles titled by their South African (Zulu or Xhosa) names but which are also known in Swaziland under slightly different Swati names. 59.149.124.29 (talk) 11:24, 22 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

If they have different names in Swati, but are still fundamentally the same dish for the purposes of establishing whether they would need separate articles or not, then we could create redirects from the Swati name which could be filed in this category. Bearcat (talk) 18:44, 25 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

• Populate and keep. This looks like a user or technical error of some kind, but per the above comments there are articles that could be added to it — so all we really have to do is populate it and remove the categoryredirect template. Bearcat (talk) 18:44, 25 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
• Comment It seems there was a category, probably created as part of a wider scheme, without any entries that was moved as part of a general switch from "Swaziland" to "Eswatini". Someone then nominated it for speedy deletion whilst it was still on the CFD working page and so it got deleted without considering the redirect. The CFD bot then automatically moved the redirect to the now empty space, creating this confusion. I'll undelete the original category edits. Timrollpickering 20:10, 27 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

• 2016 Calgary machete attack → Marlborough Mall  (talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ] 

no mention of redirect subject in target article Jon Kolbert (talk) 01:52, 21 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete I can't find any coverage of this event on Wikipedia. Thryduulf (talk) 16:52, 21 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete The target used to mention this attack, but it was removed in January. Better-sourced mall articles sometimes have "incidents and accidents" sections, e.g. SM City North EDSA or Walt Whitman Shops, but those (like similar sections at airport articles) usually only include incidents that resulted in fatalities. This attack didn't [1], so by that standard I think the removal should stand. 59.149.124.29 (talk) 10:03, 22 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

• Ununununium → Systematic element name  (talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ] 

This redirect for the element with atomic number 1111 (yes, that's not a typo) has existed for a year, and I do not understand its purpose or justification for creation, for we haven't gotten past element 118 yet, and if we have a redirect for 1111 (arbitarily?), there may as well be no upper bound. Hence, I am proposing its deletion. ComplexRational (talk) 03:54, 21 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete. This isn't even a legitimate systematic name, as the original paper defined them only for 101 ≤ Z ≤ 999. Double sharp (talk) 06:51, 21 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete for reasons stated. Lets not create redirects ad infinitum.Polyamorph (talk) 08:43, 21 Nove*mber 2018 (UTC)
• Delete per above & similar discussions of tropical storms, recurring events, and other WP:CRYSTAL stuff: we shouldn't have a redirect for something about which there's no specific sourced content. I don't know where the exact cutoff should be (extended periodic table discusses stuff as high as Z=184, and briefly mentions magic numbers above that), but clearly 1111 is way past it. 59.149.124.29 (talk) 09:20, 21 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete per all above, especially 59.149 and Double Sharp. Thryduulf (talk) 16:54, 21 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
