The result of the discussion was retarget to Naoki Tanizaki. (non-admin closure) C F A 💬 22:20, 30 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

• Naoki Tanisaki → T-Hawk (wrestler)  (talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ] 

This redirect is unnecessary and misleading as this alternative name stems from a misunderstanding of Japanese spelling. When Onodera impersonated Naoki Tanizaki, he used a different kanji spelling for his name; it didn't change the way the name wad read and shouldn't change how it's transcribed. MordecaiXLII (talk) 21:40, 27 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Vote to retarget the redirect Naoki Tanisaki → Naoki Tanizaki, per common mispellings under WP:POFR, which includes "Likely misspellings" as reasons to create redirects. The Kanji 崎 and 嵜 are both read as "さき" (saki), anyway, so it should be categorized as a possible mispelling for Tanizaki.

I do agree with the nom that there is no reason for it to be redirecting to T-Hawk (wrestler), though. MetropolitanIC (💬|📝) 03:51, 30 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

• King Roland → Spaceballs  (talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ] 

Either disambiguate or redirect to List of Sofia the First characters, and target Roland I and Roland II to it, and Minimus is likely mentioned in the nominated target page. Also, I drafted Minimus (disambiguation), but it needs an improvement for the horse character. 88.235.230.49 (talk) 07:30, 30 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

• Comment the only king mentioned on that dab page is a character in Might and Magic that doesn't have their own page. Roland of Galloway is not mentioned on that page, but rather is listed at Roland (name). Thryduulf (talk) 14:24, 1 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

• Draft:Chinese Spyware → Opera (web browser)  (talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ] 

Non-neutral redirect from draft space created by a single purpose account, was never an actual draft. No mentions of Opera being spyware at target. Schützenpanzer (Talk) 20:42, 23 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Oh, this was my bad lol. I created this redirect apparently not realising that I typed in 'Protect' instead of 'Project'. I vote to delete. Loytra (talk) 00:50, 25 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete. Normally I'm a strong believer in WP:CHEAP, but this is confusing as it suggests there's something called "Protect Scarlet" (someone or something called Scarlet needs to be protected). Plus the person who made the redirect wants to delete it. 🦬 Beefaloe 🦬 09:44, 29 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was keep. There appears a consensus here that Xehanort is the PTOPIC, I will hatnote the dab. charlotte ^👸♥ 21:24, 5 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

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

weird case, bordering on nonsensical. read at your own risk, this is the most simple and clean way i can possibly put it. "ansem" refers to two characters in kingdom hearts. one is a nerd who likes cosplaying as a mummy, listed here, and the other is a xehanort who stole the name because boys will be boys i guess. the xehanort seems to be the primary topic (if only because he popped up first and is hotter), but not by much, and kh discourse pretty often disambiguates things by referring to the latter as "ansem, (the) seeker of darkness" (or sod) and the former as "ansem the wise". this title has previously been used for redirects for both ansems and a dab for... both ansems (plus two people who were mistaken for an ansem for a few seconds each). opinions on... really, anything? cogsan _{(χ-BLADE!) (ouchie ouch)} 17:00, 1 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep and then add Hatnote to Characters of Kingdom Hearts#Ansem the Wise. Xenahort is probably the primary topic as he is a main antagonist. Ansem the Wise seems to be more of a side character/ plot twist. --Lenticel ^(talk) 00:09, 2 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  the assessment of ansem (ansem, not ansem) is... not wrong, and i don't know if i love or hate that fact cogsan _{(nag me) (stalk me)} 11:17, 2 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep and add a hatnote to Characters of Kingdom Hearts#Ansem the Wise - per Lenticel, also Ansem, Seeker of Darkness was created first, predating Ansem the Wise's introduction by 2 years (and the name by nearly 4 years). (Oinkers42) (talk) 15:39, 2 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
• REtarget to Characters of Kingdom Hearts where both are mentioned; add a hatnote for Ansem Smart (アンセム・スマート) who appears in Let This Grieving Soul Retire! -- 65.92.246.77 (talk) 18:17, 4 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep and add a hatnote I honestly have nothing to add that others haven't stated already considering that the solution to this seems rather self-explanatory. If there had to a specific redirect target however, I'd probably maintain the redirect to Xenahort as he's evidently the main antagonist and the character that Ansem is commonly associated with.

• Keep and hatnote to Ansem (disambiguation) with the understanding that Xehanort is still the primary target, and the dab page should be modified to reflect that. Jay 💬 15:30, 30 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

• Adjustment personality disorder → Adjustment disorder  (talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ] 

Delete. It is a misleading name because "adjustment disorder" does not belong to "personality disorders" in any psychiatric classification system. A user tried to add it to Personality disorder sidebox. Also it might suggest it was a historical name for adjustment disorder but that is not true either. (Please note, when you make searches for the term on Google, Google Scholar or Google Books, use "s to search the exact term, and you will still get numerous results where sentence end and beginnings or table headers collide. Also "adjustment / personality disorder" occurences are interpreted as "adjustment disorder / personality disorder" in literature. Other than those there a couple misuses and forum discussions about the terms existence.) 89.132.72.63 (talk) 06:22, 23 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. I declined a speedy request here because I (thought I) found some evidence that the term was in use. I'm now convinced by the arguments of the OP. Justlettersandnumbers (talk) 08:45, 23 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Justlettersandnumbers surely the reason to decline the speedy deletion would be that no CSD applies to this regardless of any evidence of the term being in use?! A7V2 (talk) 06:24, 24 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Indeed, A7V2! – if I'd found no evidence that it was in use, my next step would have been to look at the history, where I'd have found that it wasn't eligible under WP:R3 as it was created in 2017. Justlettersandnumbers (talk) 11:27, 24 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was retarget to Substitution. Liz ^{Read! Talk!} 03:13, 25 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

• Substituted → Substitution reaction  (talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ] 

Even with my chemistry bias, I feel like this is too broad to redirect to its current target. If the chemistry use is really primary, substituent would likely be a better target. Retargeting to substitute, soft redirecting to Wiktionary, or deletion may be better options. Mdewman6 (talk) 02:03, 16 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

• Retarget to Substitution. (Notice the -tion). That page contains more terms that can be used in the form "substitued". Most terms in substitute are proper nouns that doesn't translate well into adding -ed. Ca ^{talk to me!} 15:48, 23 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
• Retarget to Substitution. Ca gives a good practical reason, and I'll add a theoretical reason: "substituted" is the past tense of the verb "to substitute", and verbs should redirect to their noun forms,which in this case is Substitution, the act of substituting. The page Substitute is for the noun "substitute". (It's a subtle distinction, and perhaps the disambiguation pages should crosslink more noticeably than at the bottom of their "See also" sections, but that can be done outside this RfD.) jlwoodwa (talk) 17:21, 23 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
