The result of the discussion was retarget to Rhyming slang#Examples. Jay 💬 03:42, 11 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Not mentioned in target articles. Seems this may be some sort of slang, but anyone looking for a non-slang topic via this term, probably a subject related to Meat, is in for a surprise. Steel1943 (talk) 20:07, 27 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

This is backwards from the correct Hebrew for the Tetragrammaton. Because Hebrew is read right-to-left this transcribes as HWHY. TartarTorte 19:58, 27 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Searching that exact term returns 113,000 results on my end, however many of them actually spell it the right way around and it only appears mirrored in page titles and, consequently, page results. I suspect this is due to some technical issue with rendering RTL text on some sites or in file names (since many of the results are links to PDF files). I don't know if that translates into it actually being a helpful redirect to anyone though. Conceivably someone could copy and paste it from a file name, not noticing that it's backwards, but that's probably a stretch. – Scyrme (talk) 20:09, 27 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep given the ubiquity of RTL errors, even on major sites. (Anyone who's ever seen how Discord interacts with my nick on the Wikimedia community server can attest to this.) I think there'd be a WP:PANDORA situation if we expanded this to all RTL terms, but for a limited number of well-known ones, especially ones sometimes used in contexts beyond RTL languages, I think it's reasonable. -- Tamzin[cetacean needed] (she|they|xe) 23:07, 11 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Not mentioned at the target article as the campaigns seemed thoroughly non-notable. Also Arth does not appear to be mentioned anywhere on enwiki in connection to the 2020 presidential election (though he is mentioned elsewhere). See WP:Redirects for discussion/Log/2022 September 25#Unmentioned Candidate's name presidential campaign, 2020 which had the similarly titled Michael E. Arth presidential campaign, 2020, and from where I have copied the deletion rationale. Jay 💬 18:37, 4 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was retarget to Airstream mechanism#Lingual (velaric) initiation. Jay 💬 03:39, 11 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

This adjective refers to concepts related to velar consonants, and is not restricted to velaric ingressive sounds (there is even a velaric egressive too). 1234qwer1234qwer4 15:44, 18 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, agreed that redirecting velaric to ingressive sound is a sort of strange choice. But I think velaric airstream might also be worth considering as the redirect target. Umimmak (talk) 17:13, 18 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
That seems like a good solution, thanks. 1234qwer1234qwer4 15:22, 20 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
But Velaric airstream is not an article, but another redirect that points to Airstream mechanism. CycloneYoris talk! 01:06, 26 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was retarget to Wikipedia:WikiProject Lithuania. Jay 💬 03:34, 11 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The current redirect leads to the inactive ex-technical page Wikipedia:List of templates by usage, that was wiped in 2011. LTU is one of the country codes of Lithuania, and as such is a rudimentary search option when looking for the WikiProject Lithuania. Respublik (talk) 14:35, 27 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment: The nominator wants this retargeted Wikipedia:WikiProject Lithuania. I fixed the nomination where the proposed target was listed next to the arrow instead of the current target, but I didn't want to alter someone's statement, so I am adding this here. TartarTorte 14:39, 27 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Retarget. We should always be very careful about retargetting shortcut redirects as the potential for harm from changing the meaning of discussions, edit summaries etc is high. In this case there are no incomming links other than in lists of shortcuts and similar, the target page has been historical for more than a decade, there is a clear and logical other target, the current target is not the sort of page that is likely to widely referred to in edit summaries and it gets few page views. All together this means the likelihood of harm from retarggeting is much lower than the average shortcut and there will be a clear benefit to the retargetting. Thryduulf (talk) 16:46, 27 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    Or it could become a DAB. Crouch, Swale (talk) 07:58, 28 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    Shortcut disambigs are almost always the worst of all worlds given that they don't act as shortcuts to any of the listed topics. In this case, we have two targets one of which is a page that has been historical for over a decade and attracted all-but no incomming links across title and shortcut that have survived to the present day, the other is an active Wikiproject for a contemporary country. If the link to the defunct list needs to be preserved then a hatnote at the Lithuania project page will be very significantly better. Thryduulf (talk) 08:14, 28 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • If WikiProject Lithuania would like to Retarget it to their WikiProject, I support it. A hatnote per Thryduulf should be more than sufficient. CX Zoom[he/him] (let's talk • {CX}) 16:56, 28 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Retarget to the Lithuania wikiproject. Although this is a longstanding shortcut the page it links to has been defunct for a long time, there are no links to it, and it's unlikely to have got much use outside Wikipedia. Hut 8.5 18:58, 4 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Bingo (British version)#History also exists, so this redirect is ambiguous. However, this redirect is a {{R with history}}. Steel1943 (talk) 17:24, 27 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Disambig. This is a very plausible search term for someone who doesn't know that there are multiple versions of the game that don't share a history (e.g. me before seeing this nomination). Thryduulf (talk) 08:06, 28 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

No mention at target page. —Bagumba (talk) 16:08, 9 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep. This is more of an argument to improve the Liz Truss article, rather than delete the redirect, which is the most (in)famous phrase from one of her most (in)famous speeches. Bazonka (talk) 16:56, 9 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    • The article has now been updated to include this information. Bazonka (talk) 18:32, 9 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
      Liz Truss didn't coin the phrase "pork markets", so redirecting it to her because she included the phrase in a speech is bizarre. It'd be like redirecting "apples" to Liz Truss because she used the term in the same ridiculous speech; likewise redirecting "imported cheese" because it's how the media concisely refers to (an arguably more infamous) part of that speech. That speech had a lot of ridiculous moments, like proudly declaring Yorkshire Tea is a British export (when it's grown in India), but her use of the English language wasn't what made those moments infamous or memorable. – Scyrme (talk) 19:31, 14 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment: This is a pretty infamous quote from Liz Truss; however, I say that as someone who despite being American spends far too much time following Westminster. Without a mention on the page and with possible ambiguity (although there is no current target article) for pork market, I feel like I am wavering on this one. I'm not sure how a mention of her quote about opening new pork markets in Beijing and the notable lack of audience response at the Tory conference would best fit into the article. I don't think that she's said enough weird things to have a page like Bushism where you could retarget this. TartarTorte 18:00, 9 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete as ambiguous. In addition to the context from the Truss meme (a foreign market for pork products), it could refer to meat markets, Lean Hog (pork futures), and probably other items. Disambiguation wouldn't be appropriate, because it's such a vague term. - Eureka Lott 18:11, 9 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    A disambiguation page only needs to cover content that actually has an article, not every conceivable referent. I doubt there's that many articles to which "pork market" could refer.
    The term isn't really all that vague. Most people searching for "pork market" are probably looking for (a specialist) meat market. Unfortunately that article is a stub (but it being a stub is all the more reason to make it easier to find; more likely someone will add something to it). Meat market doesn't presently mention the phrase, but its relevance as a related topic is self-evident and a line mentioning the existence of "markets specialising in beef, pork, etc." could easily be added to make things a bit more explicit. I could also see people searching for speculation on pork prices, ie. Lean Hog. Per WP:TWODABS, that's enough for a disambiguation page.
    As far as I know, those are the only two; using the search tool I wasn't able to find anything else that wasn't too specific to be relevant (like 2008 Irish pork crisis). The German-language Wikipedia has a disambiguation page for "Schweinemarkt" which lists three places by that name, none of which have English-language articles; even if they did, their names probably wouldn't be translated so they wouldn't be included in a disambiguation page for "pork market". Conceivably an article could be created for Pork industry which might add another plausible target, but that article does not exist yet. I don't really see this disambiguation page being overwhelmed by listing too many articles. – Scyrme (talk) 19:55, 14 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete to allow uninhibited search. Too vague to disambiguate I think but I suppose it's an option. A7V2 (talk) 00:46, 14 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Disambiguate between "Meat markets which specialise in selling pork" and "Lean Hog, speculation on pork prices" at pork market and retarget pork markets there. The phrase is common enough, its everyday meaning is obvious, it is attested in reliable sources (per Google Scholar), and it is used on a number of Wikipedia articles which refer to either of these topics. Disambiguation only needs to cover articles that actually exist, not all conceivable uses, so I don't see how this is "too vague". Liz Truss needn't be mentioned. – Scyrme (talk) 20:02, 14 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Additionally, Meat market reads: A butcher specializes in the preparation and sale of meat. Butchers sometimes operate specialized shops selling meat, known as butcher's shops, meat stores, meat markets or butcheries so "meat market" (and by extension, "pork market") doesn't need to imply many shops/stalls; at least, not in according to the article as it is presently written. – Scyrme (talk) 15:36, 22 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Sorry, I'm not convinced. A google search finds only financial results. You say above "The phrase is common enough", but I don't find it so at all. If we had a better global article on pig meat trading I'd go for that, but it seems we don't. Johnbod (talk) 16:35, 22 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
When I said the "the phrase is common enough" I meant in all its senses, including financial. Hundreds of thousands of results, even if mostly financial, seems "common enough" to me. (Also, many of the economically-focused results don't refer to speculation on prices but to the collective consumer market internationally or in a particular country [such as this news article], ie. to the sale of pork products; if you know a better target for that than Meat market, I don't object to including it in the disambiguation page. There's Meat industry but that seems focused on production and distribution more than consumer sales so it may surprise people redirected there.) – Scyrme (talk) 16:59, 22 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Ok with redirecting to Meat industry, or dabbing. We say "A meat market is, traditionally, a marketplace where meat is sold, often by a butcher. It is a specialized wet market." I must say I've never heard of such a thing, called a pork market. Continental ones would be referred to as charcuterie markets I think. Johnbod (talk) 04:23, 26 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Either disambiguate or keep. I suspect someone searching for the term is very likely looking for the Liz Truss quote - if I Google "pork markets" in the UK only one of the first 20 hits isn't related to it. But I'm happy with a disambiguation page if it's likely to confuse people from other places. Hut 8.5 19:12, 4 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
