The result of the discussion was retarget to Texperts#Publications. (non-admin closure) feminist (talk) 07:28, 24 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. Ha ha ha, I get it. But not mentioned in the target article, so no. UnitedStatesian (talk) 22:09, 16 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Zorua and Zoroark

[edit]

The following is an archived discussion concerning one or more redirects. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on an appropriate discussion page (such as the redirect's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this section.
The result of the discussion was no consensus. This obviously does not preclude a merge, which can be discussed on the article talk page. Thryduulf (talk) 20:49, 27 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

There is a draft in AFC for Draft:Zorua and Zoroark, but that title in article space is occupied by a redirect to List of generation V Pokémon. There was previously an article on Zorua and Zoroark, which was then stubbed down to a redirect. If there was discussion prior to the stubbing/redirection, it was done other than on the talk page. The draft has as much information as some other Pokemon species that have stand-alone articles. The options for this redirect are: (1) keep redirect as is, and decline draft; (2) delete redirect, and promote draft to mainspace; (3) merge, by copying draft into mainspace in place of redirect; (4) other.

Recommend (3), merge, by copying draft text into mainspace with histmerge. Robert McClenon (talk) 02:59, 27 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I don't quite understand why the list was converted to a table format but nevertheless should be reasonable to merge the most important non-trivia. czar 23:33, 2 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was keep. Nomination withdrawn (non-admin closure) AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 03:41, 25 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

A stand-alone article draft has been developed. The question is whether the article should be accepted in place of an entry in a list of the characters. Robert McClenon (talk) 03:51, 28 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

See Draft:Kyoko Sakura. Robert McClenon (talk) 10:21, 28 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose - I have to reluctantly oppose this as the size does not warrant out a split. I compared this to an article which I was able to bump up to GA status with a length of 18k bytes, but this is a different case as things like the plot are overly detailed. I think it would show more for notability if Kyoko had some kind of a cultural impact like Homura Akemi. - Knowledgekid87 (talk) 17:50, 29 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

NotEnglishSpeaker, does that mean it's not ready to be published? Are you still going to work on one anyway, or abandon it / have it deleted? AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 17:46, 8 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment - This redirect does not appear to be up for deletion as the article is not ready for the main-space yet. Angus has linked possibilities in regards to the draft so we just need to see if things can be improved. - Knowledgekid87 (talk) 14:51, 20 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Question for User:Knowledgekid87 - I am not sure what you mean by saying that the "redirect does not appear to be up for deletion as the article is not ready for the main-space yet". A draft has been submitted to AFC for review and is waiting for this RFD. Do you mean that you do not think that the draft is ready for acceptance? It has been submitted for acceptance, and the purpose of this RFD is to decide whether it should be accepted. Robert McClenon (talk) 17:03, 20 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Well I mean this discussion has been open for almost a month now, and the creator has not responded other than to say "Please decline it". I do not feel the draft is ready for acceptance due to concerns raised. For reference I have also penned WP:A&M/CHARACTER which is a composite of a good character article. Without enough outside notability, the information presented is mostly in-universe fandom. - Knowledgekid87 (talk) 17:21, 20 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
I'm gonna go ahead and decline the request per submitter. Knowledgekid87, if you have concerns about notability you can list it on the talk page of that draft or the AFC reviewers' section. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 17:31, 20 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was retarget to Karl Malus. -- Tavix (talk) 15:58, 1 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Target section was deleted due to lack of incoming links and the fact that the character only appears five times ([5]). No suitable place to retarget. Only incoming link in article space is a passing mention of the character that provides sufficient context. Namenamenamenamename (talk) 23:44, 2 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Not mentioned in target. It is a database of donations by pharma companies. Reasonable redirect if discussed in target, but it's not. MB 03:40, 25 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was retarget to Underrated (disambiguation). If the RM discussion passes (and it looks like it will), a bot should fix this redirect to point to the new title. (non-admin closure) feminist (talk) 07:37, 24 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Delete redirect for album that will not be released in the foreseeable future. --Jax 0677 (talk) 13:45, 16 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Surprising redirect from antonym. Term not discussed in target article and can also refer to culture of death (which is a very similar concept but originating from different circles). Propose deletion as we don't have a broad-concept article for “culture of death” which could be the only sensible place to retarget this to.

Delete. Application programming denotes a specific kind of programming which as such is not dealt with in the given target article. Hildeoc (talk) 08:42, 28 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Robert McClenon: Then it should be taken care that the term "Application programming" is mentioned there (in boldface) as per WP:R#PLA.--Hildeoc (talk) 17:16, 4 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Eastern European music

The result of the discussion was delete. -- Tavix (talk) 15:52, 1 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

The cross-namespace target does not provide information about eastern European music (perhaps because it's not a recognisable genre), but is a category containing articles about music of eastern European nations. Shhhnotsoloud (talk) 22:03, 6 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • N.b., European music redirects to Culture of Europe#Music, which is mostly an awful list of European musical acts sorted by country. Eastern Europe doesn't have a distinct culture or music section, though it reminds us that "Eastern Europe" is broad enough an idea that we might well have difficulty describing something like "Eastern European music" except as a container for the music of its individual countries. --BDD (talk) 22:09, 6 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Disambiguate between the current topic, Peter Paul and Mary, and placeholder name. Unless you're a computer running an exact character match, you'll see that "Whatsername" and "What's-his-name" are basically the same thing. Nyttend (talk) 20:02, 16 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
