Seems like an unlikely search target Hemiauchenia (talk) 23:37, 10 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep this is the subject of the target article and with about 70 hits so far this year and just shy of 100 last year it's clearly being used so either it is actually a plausible search term or it's linked to from somewhere outside of Wikipedia, or both - and given that it's a very academic way of phrasing the topic it wouldn't surprise me if the answer is indeed "both". Whatever the reason it's being used though, it is being used and points to the right target so deletion would be harmful to the encyclopaedia without brining any benefits.

Arguably the redirect overlaps with parts of the Nigger article, such as Nigger#Intra-group_versus_intergroup_usage, and so therefore a redirect to Nigga is not unambiguous. Hemiauchenia (talk) 00:35, 11 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
That section has a {{main}} link to Nigga so there is no ambiguity problem. Thryduulf (talk) 01:34, 11 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

This term (with the capital "T") should be redirected to American rock band Ded (band), as the term refers to their upcoming music album. Failing at this, a hat note should be placed at school of thought directing readers to the band, as there is no harm in doing so. Jax 0677 (talk) 23:32, 10 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was retarget to What Goes Up (disambiguation). (non-admin closure) CycloneYoris talk! 00:09, 18 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I propose that this be retargeted to What Goes Up (disambiguation). I don't think that the current title is exclusive enough to refer to a single episode of Bugs (TV series). There are episodes of The Batman and The Brady Bunch with the same title. — Mikehawk10 (talk) 18:59, 10 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Yet another Eubot umlaut redirect, whose band's Eubot title Nyttend broke uep back in 2017 as housekeeping. It's only been listened to a whopping 37 times since Juely 2015 as well, so uenless someone can provide a juestification, deletion also seems to be the way to go here.

The result of the discussion was procedural close. The only participant in this discussion is a banned sock. -- Tavix (talk) 03:24, 16 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per WP:RFD#D2, "might cause confusion". Not mentioned at target, no online English dictionary site I have tried defines it. (Results I get are mostly for Spanish/English dictionaries: ES:WP doesn't have es:varase. We do have wikt:varase, listing two Spanish imperfect subjunctive verb conjugations.) 85.67.32.244 (talk) 12:54, 10 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Apparently the creator's transliteration of Varisai, recently created (6 September) by the same user, User:Faster than Thunder, on the same day. I've refined that to the section "Learning exercises" via an anchor: Glossary of Carnatic music § Varisai. wordhippo.com transliterates Tamil "வரிசை" as "Varicai"; shabdosh.com as "Varichai": I'm ignorant on whether any or all are "correct".85.67.32.244 (talk) 13:15, 10 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

This redirect infers that there is a community or neighborhood of San Diego called "Border", which I don't think there is, but in any case is not listed at the target or at San Diego. Shhhnotsoloud (talk) 12:42, 10 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete Back in 2011, when I was very active in the area of San Diego neighborhood articles, I accepted this as a stub article and even added a reference. But I now feel that this is not a real neighborhood and never was - it's just a tiny designated area in San Diego police nomenclature - and is not appropriate for even a redirect. And as Shhh... points out, these are not a helpful redirects because the subject is not mentioned at the target article. (Note: I was asked to comment here by the original author of the stub.) -- MelanieN (talk) 14:48, 16 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

It's likely that this very old redirect was a temporary placeholder, and now serves no purpose Shhhnotsoloud (talk) 08:17, 10 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was keep. Technical close. Because I merged the lead paragraph to a new paragraph under "domestic reactions": Withdrawal of United States troops from Afghanistan (2020–2021) § Reactions the page history must be retained for maintaining attribution to all users involved in creating and altering the content that I copied/merged. wbm1058 (talk) 18:56, 12 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Not mentioned at target article. AfD seemed to have somewhat of a consensus to merge but as it stands a few weeks later the target article does not contain a mention of Scheller, making this a confusing and unexplained redirect. Elli (talk | contribs) 03:41, 10 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

...or not... Looking at the article, there really isn't much of anything to merge. I'm just concerned that this is, as Narky Blert put it above, relitigating a closed AfD outside of normal process.--NapoliRoma (talk) 22:39, 10 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was retarget to Qwerty effect. A move discussion or round robin swap can be made through the normal editing process. Hog Farm Talk 13:43, 18 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

No longer mentioned at target article, apparently still targeting a section which was removed. I suggest deletion or a retarget to Qwerty effect as an {{R from alternative spelling}}. CycloneYoris talk! 02:17, 10 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

KTRK-TV has also in the past called its newscasts "Channel 13 Eyewitness News" (and even now still calls them "ABC 13 Eyewitness News"), so there is some ambiguity. Google searches for most variations of this title are dominated by KTRK, even when "ABC" (which wouldn't apply to the NBC-affiliated WTHR) isn't included.

While KPIX-TV is probably the largest station to have titled its newscasts anything like this (albeit as "Channel 5 Eyewitness News"), this could just as easily refer to KSTP-TV, which has also branded its news as "Channel 5 Eyewitness News" in the past, and even now is still "5 Eyewitness News" (whereas KPIX has not used the Eyewitness News name in any form in nearly a decade). There have been other stations on channel 5 that have used the "Eyewitness News" name in the past as well, so there's some possible ambiguity, but it's worth noting that Google searches for anything close to this term are dominated by KSTP-TV, not KPIX-TV.

While WFSB is probably by far the largest station to title its newscasts as "Channel 3 Eyewitness News", this is also the branding for the newscasts on WRCB, so there is some potential ambiguity. (On top of that, KIDK also used this title in relatively recent times when it still aired local newscasts; even now, a subchannel of KIFI-TV is branded as the similar "Eyewitness News 3".)
