• Sacraments () → Sacraments of the Catholic Church  (talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ] 

Useless, unhelpful redirect. I recommend deletion. Veverve (talk) 23:02, 6 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete: could refer to any sacraments, the parentheses are unhelpful and unnecessary. Edward-Woodrow (talk) 23:21, 6 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete (). Which sacraments does it refer to? And what's a disambiguator without anything to disambiguate a term from (or specifying what it refers to)? Regards, SONIC^{678 ()} 23:31, 6 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete () per nom. The page history indicates that this redirect was created automatically to fix Sacraments (, a page which has itself been deleted due to having been made in error by a bad page move. The title looks vaguely like a function or subroutine evaluation, but it would be extremely implausible (and likely unnatural) to name a function "Sacraments".

• P. antiquus → Pterodactylus  (talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ] 

Ambiguous redirect, could also refer to taxa like Palaeoloxodon antiquus among others. I think it should just be deleted without creating a disambiguation page. Hemiauchenia (talk) 21:16, 6 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Weak delete. While there's technically a valid reason to DAB, it seems unlikely that anyone would actually search this. An anonymous username, not my real name 22:52, 6 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

• Disambiguate – it's a plausible search term, because names of species are often abbreviated this way. A Google Books search for "P. antiquus" in quotation marks finds lots of examples. —Mx. Granger (talk · contribs) 14:44, 7 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete. An unlikely search term, as abbreviated scientific names are always preceded in a document by an unabbreviated name. If there is a dab page, is it going to be restricted to species that have articles on Wikipedia? If somebody does happen to search for "P. antiquus" they may very well be looking for a species that doesn't yet have an article on Wikipedia. C. elegans (disambiguation) is Wikipedia's longest dab page, and an effort was made to create stubs for every species with that abbreviation, but I don't think it has ended up being very helpful to readers, although it does illustrate the folly of having dab pages for species abbreviations. Plantdrew (talk) 17:44, 7 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete It is very bad practice to refer to a species in this manner, unless either the full binomial name has already been used in the text, or the text is describing a genus and is listing its member species. Also, as noted already, the term P. antiquus is not unique; there are many genera beginning with the letter P, and there is no prohibition on, say, the name Panthera antiquus being used for a newly-described species of extinct large carnivore. --Redrose64 🌹 (talk) 22:31, 7 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Not mentioned in target. Onel5969 ^{TT me} 17:58, 6 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

• Comment: This source seems to imply that Tangxi station is an alternate name for Guangzhou Baiyun station, although I am not sure of either the reliability of the source or how widespread the usage of that name is. Furthermore, it and Tangxi railway station get next to no traffic. Edward-Woodrow (talk) 22:03, 6 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
• Disambiguate (drafted at Tangxi railway station) for Tangxi railway station (Guangzhou) (zh:棠溪站) and Tangxi railway station (Jinhua) (zh:湯溪站), both of which meet WP:DABRL now (I added a mention of the former at Guangzhou Baiyun railway station, and the latter is mentioned at Tangxi, Jinhua). This is not an alternative name for Guangzhou Baiyun station, but a separate station with its own century-long history (and several former names of its own) that got torn down to make way for the new station. 59.149.117.119 (talk) 01:04, 7 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Note: I WP:BOLDly merged the nominations for Tangxi station and Tangxi railway station, since their fates are tied: they should either be deleted together, retargetted together, or one should end up pointing to the other if there's a consensus for disambiguation. 59.149.117.119 (talk) 01:07, 7 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

• List of countries by population denisty → List of countries and dependencies by population density  (talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ] 

Recently-created implausible typo. This is a contested WP:R3 speedy deletion (see Talk:List of countries by population denisty); creator asserts that the typo is plausible because they made the mistake themselves. Ivanvector (^Talk/_Edits) 17:45, 6 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Keep as creator per prior rationale Atavoidturk (talk) 17:47, 6 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete per WP:RFD#D8 and the original speedy deletion rationale. Simple keystroke errors are not plausible typos, and we needn't keep redirects for every possible instance of someone's fingers getting away from them. Ivanvector (^Talk/_Edits) 18:00, 6 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete: Not a useful redirect as it's an unlikely search term. We don't need every possible typo in which two characters are shifted. Hey man im josh (talk) 19:10, 6 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
• Weak Delete. Now List of countries by population density exists and is useful since it shows up in search results. But this redirect isn't useful enough (even though I'm a strong believer in WP:CHEAP). Skynxnex (talk) 22:28, 6 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete per Hey man im josh. There is no reason to think this typo is more common than other possible typos, for example List of coutnries by population density or List of countries by popultion density. Population denisty doesn't exist either. Dsuke1998AEOS (talk) 00:26, 7 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

• List of terms for white people in non-Western cultures → List of ethnic slurs  (talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ] 

Apparently originally a separate list before becoming a redirect. Not sure who would be searching this or whether the target list would satisfy them (of the minority of terms that refer to white people, most originate in Western countries). An anonymous username, not my real name 00:54, 19 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

• If nobody can find a more appropriate target then delete it without prejudice to later recreation as something more useful. Not all terms for white people in non-Western cultures are slurs and most of the slurs on the target page aren't even terms for white people in non-Western cultures so the redirect is completely unhelpful to anybody looking for that. Maybe it should be turned back into an actual article? There is potentially a legitimate subject here. DanielRigal (talk) 01:15, 19 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Not all terms for white-people in non-Western cultures is a slur. Delete to encourage article creation(if it is notable). Carpimaps (talk) 07:10, 22 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

• A search for "white" at the target helps the reader in what he is looking for. Hence, keep unless there is a better target. Anyone should be able to create a draft out of the "white" entries from the target for a potential standalone list, and/or request a draftification of the list deleted in 2012 at WP:Articles for deletion/List of terms for white people in non-Western cultures. Jay 💬 08:17, 22 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete – not a close enough match. The target is not a subset or a superset of the subject identified by the redirect, and there's not even that much overlap. It is also WP:ASTONISHing to redirect readers to a list of slurs when they didn't search for anything related to slurs. —Mx. Granger (talk · contribs) 15:47, 23 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

It was previously an article about a theological opinion related to Death of God theology. However, there is no mention of this concept at the target, nor anywhere else on Wikipedia. Therefore, I propose deletion. Veverve (talk) 22:16, 18 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

• This is a difficult one. According to the former article, it is actually quite distinct from theothanatology, due to supposing that God has merely withdrawn and the possibility of his return; in this respect, it reminds me most of Jainism. That said, the original article appears to have been entirely OR, and a Google search only returns book titles, so I have my doubts this is actually a distinct strand of theology. Maybe it would be best to restore and AfD? On the other hand, I would not object to simply deleting the redirects as originally proposed. —Compassionate727 ^(T·C) 14:14, 9 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

• Template:Fag → Template:Find a Grave  (talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ] 

Delete – Unneeded and only had a few transclusions, which I replaced. Obviously, it's intended as an initialism for Find a Grave; however, the resulting word is unfortunate and best avoided. At least the redirect Template:FAG is a little more obvious that it's an abbreviation. MClay1 (talk) 10:01, 26 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep - what benefit comes from deleting this exactly? Only someone using this would ever see it, and given the existence of Template:FAG I don't see any benefit which comes from deleting the lowercase version. Shortcuts even for templates are not just for use in wikitext but also directly in the url, or in edit summaries, for example. Further, old versions of articles may be broken by deleting this (and in all of these instances deleting the redirect wouldn't stop people from seeing it, which appears to be the only reason for the nomination here). A7V2 (talk) 22:32, 26 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  It's not only seen by the person using it – it can be seen by anyone in the wikitext and it would be highly confusing to unfamiliar users. Deprecated templates and unused template redirects are deleted all the time; it breaking something in an article history isn't really a concern, especially not in this case with such a minor template. What benefit comes from keeping it? MClay1 (talk) 11:14, 27 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  There needs to be a reason to delete, but this just seems like either WP:IDONTLIKEIT or a solution in search of a problem. As I already asked, what benefit comes from deleting this? Deleting this redirect will not change what is visible in the wikitext, and as you said in your edit summary, you already removed it from wherever it was. "Unneeded" isn't really a reason to delete. Is Template:Rfd "needed" when Template:RFD and Template:RfD also exist? So given that deleting this will break links, at least in old versions of some articles, there ought to be a reason to delete it (and furthermore, if someone is to view such an old version for whatever reason, instead of seeing the citation created by this template they will instead see a redlink to this redirect). A7V2 (talk) 22:56, 27 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  I gave my reasons for why it should be deleted – the benefit to deleting it is avoiding those issues. Deleting it will cause it to no longer be visible in wikitext because people will have to stop using it. If it's not deleted, there's no reason to believe no one will ever use it again. It's only not being used currently because I replaced all the instances. MClay1 (talk) 09:42, 3 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per nom. Contradictory to what the above commentor said, everyone can see the usage of this link which at best is ambiguous to what exactly it's meant for. Links should be clear and should not require editors to go through hoops to understand what is meant by them. This isn't a good shortcut (though to be fair, most ones here are awful and lazy). Gonnym (talk) 17:04, 2 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Interesting way to describe the situation ("Contradictory to what the above commentor said...") given there was no mention by me or the nominator above of any potential ambiguity, or lack thereof. I should perhaps clarify what I meant by the danger of breaking links: if this is deleted, then in old versions of articles which used this shortcut there will be an error and a redlink to this. If kept, then all that will be seen is the wikitext (since the template will still work), and given the existence of the redirect it wouldn't take someone long to figure out what it is for. I don't foresee anyone adding it to any new articles. It would perhaps be helpful if there was some kind of Template:R from depreciated shortcut that could be added to such redirects. I don't agree that this is ambiguous. Firstly, it has (to my knowledge) only been used for one purpose, and ambiguity within internal redirects such as these is to me determined by intended actual usage, not theoretical usage. Secondly, I can't see anyone using it any more. Thirdly, I don't see anything else this could refer to, and you haven't given anything as would normally be expected of someone arguing a redirect is ambiguous. A7V2 (talk) 23:43, 2 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

And fourthly, anything this could be ambiguous with would surely also be a grounds to delete Template:FAG, but this has not been advocated here. A7V2 (talk) 23:47, 2 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

anything this could be ambiguous with would surely also be a grounds to delete Template:FAG I would be fine with this as well. I support your nomination. Gonnym (talk) 10:03, 3 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Retarget to eggcorn, where this variant is discussed and to which it used to point before being unilaterally retargeted. An anonymous username, not my real name 20:46, 19 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

• I have bundled in another 7 nearly identical redirects, all of which currently target Alzheimer's disease. Some previously targeted Eggcorn, some did not. A7V2 (talk) 00:03, 20 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep: It's a relatively common eggcorn and I'm not sure that another target, such as eggcorn, would suit people better as this is probably what they want when searching for this term. TartarTorte 14:49, 20 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep targeted to Alzheimer's disease. I think the most likely scenario is someone searching for that because they either don't know the correct name or they don't know the intended meaning of the eggcorn. Arriving instead at Eggcorn would be confusing. MClay1 (talk) 11:51, 7 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was No consensus, retargetto Pathan (disambiguation). There is no consensus as to whether to move the film to Pathaan or create another disambiguation page, however there is clearly a consensus against keeping the current target. In these circumstances, an outcome of "no consensus, retarget" or "no consensus, disambiguate" is recommended rather than the default to keep. Since having separate disambiguation pages on different spellings is discouraged, a retarget to Pathan (disambiguation) seems the best option.

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

Currently targets Pashtuns, but there is a new Indian movie called Pathaan (film) that might also be a reasonable target. A user attempted a copy-paste move to this page, so I'm bringing the redirect up here for discussion. — Red-tailed hawk _(nest) 02:57, 29 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

• Disambiguate so that it mentions Pashtuns, the film and anything else that people could be searching for. InterstellarGamer12321 (talk) 11:46, 29 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
• Disambiguate. Pashtuns is the more important topic, but Pathaan seems to be a relatively uncommon spelling; Google search and news are dominated by the film, which could be just because it's recent, but in Google book search some of the results refer to the ethnic group but many are unrelated.

• Move the film to Pathaan and hatnote Pashtuns. The film has the uncommon spelling per Peter James. Jay 💬 07:53, 12 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
• Move and hatnote. Disambiguation seems unneccesary when the spelling is uncommon. — PerfectSoundWhatever (t; c) 21:14, 17 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
• Pathaan is a simple spelling variant of Pathan (the a is there to better approximate the long a of the term in e.g. Hindi/Urdu paṭhān), and so should ideally have the same target as the redirect Pathan. If the film is indeed a prominent use, then Pathaan can be retargeted to Pathan (disambiguation). – Uanfala (talk) 19:11, 18 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  This seems reasonable to me. — Red-tailed hawk _(nest) 19:30, 24 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

• The fictional Zarathustra does philosophise, albeit in his inimitable way, so I don't think most readers would find such a qualification as wrong (philosophy doesn't have to be understood strictly as a bookish scholarly pursuit).

• Per Uanfala, keep – I really don't see what's wrong with describing him as a philosopher at all. J947 † ^edits 08:19, 26 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  Well, in Nietzche's book he is simply a hermit or poet, not a philosopher. Veverve (talk) 17:16, 26 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  It is my view that if his role as a character is to discourse on philosophy, then he is definitely a philosopher. This is in much the same way that Zoroaster himself is regarded as a philosopher, in my opinion. J947 † ^edits 20:27, 26 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  To me, being a wise person or coach, or to provide some life advice, does not mean you are a philosopher. Veverve (talk) 10:36, 10 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  Right so I'm struggling here. In a work of philosophical fiction written by a philosopher about a character based upon a famous philosopher embroiled in philosophical thoughts, is it inconceivable that this character could well be referred to as a philosopher?

I have replaced similar templates when the decision is to retarget before (e.g. Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion/Log/2023 January 24#Template:Reference necessary), so if the decision is to retarget, feel free to ping me to do the replacements. TartarTorte 15:58, 7 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  The problem is that we would have to replace the redirect with {{Reply to}} which would send another notification to users who have received the original notification from this redirect. Pizzaplayer219^Talk_Contribs 17:32, 7 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  I don't believe that it would. WP:MENTION saysmodifying an earlier comment does not work. so I think that if you were to replace {{pin}} with {{reply to}} it shouldn't ping people. Having said that, I could be wrong. TartarTorte 17:47, 7 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  Doing some testing with my alternate account, can confirm that replacing the templates does not cause a duplicate ping. {{ping|ClydeFranklin}} (t/c) 19:07, 7 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  The notifications feature is one of the most misunderstood, and the first of the five WP:MENTION criteria is the one that trips people up more often than any other, even though it's been documented for more than six years. Many times I've seen people attempting to send a notification merely by adding {{reply to|Redrose64}} to the start of something they already posted. If I hadn't already been watching the page concerned, I would never have known about the attempt to communicate with me. That said, I'm unsure about the truth ofnot alter any text outside your own comment, I need to test it; the other four criteria are definitely correct. --Redrose64 🌹 (talk) 22:05, 7 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
