Meghan Trainor filmography

[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 delete. --BDD (talk) 21:32, 30 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

No such list exists at the target. Readers looking for films which Meghan Trainor are going to find no information due to the lack of any information about the subject of the redirect. Steel1943 (talk) 21:58, 16 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Return the redirect to point back to romance, not onwards another redirect to an obscure song mentioned on an EP. In ictu oculi (talk) 21:21, 16 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Same rationale as Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion/Log/2016 March 16#Redirects to Meghan Trainor - unnotable song redirects but apparently, these redirects' titles are misspelled. Apparently, these titles represent a song by the name "Sweet, Sweetie Pie" on I'll Sing With You, but are obviously erroneous names. For these two, I recommend they be deleted without any retargeting alternative. Steel1943 (talk) 21:02, 16 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Redirects to Meghan Trainor - unnotable song redirects

[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 Redirect to Meghan Trainor discography#Independent albums, with no prejudice against individual renomination or disambiguation if ambiguity can be demonstrated in any of the titles. (non-admin closure) -- Tavix (talk) 18:21, 4 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

These {{R from song}} redirects are several titles of songs in WP:GNG/WP:NALBUMS-failing Meghan Trainor albums I'll Sing With You and Only 17. These songs are briefly named at Meghan Trainor discography#Independent albums, but they are only listed there as names of songs on the notability-failing albums. (These redirects are not mentioned at all in the Meghan Trainor article.) With that being said, I believe these should be deleted since confusion could exist that these songs redirect to a list of albums where their albums do not even have articles, or otherwise, weak retarget to Meghan Trainor discography#Independent albums.

Delete per WP:RFOREIGN. Judge Judy has no affinity for the Spanish language. -- Tavix (talk) 19:31, 16 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • The more appropriate action to help our Spanish-speaking users would be to create Judge Judy on the Spanish Wikipedia so that Spanish-speaking readers will have a full article to read in their language. Having this redirect on the English Wikipedia is misleading because it also sets the expectation that the English article is in Spanish on the English Wikipedia, which it is not. Steel1943 (talk) 17:45, 17 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Reply - Now that it is created, there is no reason to delete it. Some people who speak Spanish can also speak enough English to get from the article the information that they need. --Jax 0677 (talk) 18:05, 17 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Your statement is akin to assuming that all those fluent in Spanish also know English, which is far from true. Those Spanish speakers/readers who do not know English could look up this term and then arrive at the English Wikipedia to an article they are not able to read. (This is part of the basis of why WP:RFOREIGN exists: To promote the creation of articles in a reader's native language.) Steel1943 (talk) 18:33, 17 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Is that supposed to be a convincing argument? Steel1943 rewrote the entire relevant part from the essay in a fairly sensible way, and you did not address that. "Just an essay" is an argument against using essays to supersede policy or using them as authority in the absence of policy, it does not mean "arguments based on essays are automatically worthless".

The result of the discussion was speedy deleted by JohnCD per criterion G8 since its target page was deleted. Steel1943 (talk) 14:39, 18 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Misleading - no WP page is an "official page". PamD 18:26, 16 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Furthermore, it shows the user's purpose: he wants to create an official page for this individual on WP. The redirect target is up for speedy; hopefully that will take care of it. ubiquity (talk) 20:47, 16 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Compositorial

[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 restored article. Since the merged content was removed from Composite number, the preferable action to declare the content in Compositorial unnecessary would be to nominate it for deletion as an article. That can be accomplished at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion. For this reason, I believe that this speedy close is warranted. (non-admin closure) Steel1943 (talk) 18:10, 16 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

The merge was completed as suggested by Kvng, but David Eppstein removed the section completely from the target article. 63.251.215.25 (talk) 17:43, 16 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not sure of the validity of this redirect. I think I understand what the creator is doing, but I do not think it's encyclopedic-worthy of a redirect. Izno (talk) 14:26, 16 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Title (album)

[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 keep. The discussion below has shown that a reader searching for this title could reasonably be looking for either "title as applied to album", or "a specific album named 'title'", with an opinion split of Title (publishing) (1 !v) vs Title (Meghan Trainor album) (2 !v) vs Title (disambiguation) (3 !v). As closing admin I read this as strong evidence of title ambiguity, hence the existing target to a disambiguation page containing both possible meanings (among other things) is the appropriate redirect target per policy. Deryck C. 08:21, 5 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Looking at Talk:Title (Meghan Trainor album)#Requested move, should this be retargeted to Title (publishing)? sst✈ 11:24, 16 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Unnecessary redirects combining with mendacious interwiki from the Ukrainian segment. I propose deleting them В.Галушко (talk) 14:57, 9 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep plausible search term. - Champion (talk) (contribs) (Formerly TheChampionMan1234) 23:44, 9 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. I'm not sure how this is mandacious; it looks like a valid search term to me. -- Notecardforfree (talk) 00:30, 10 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. Useful, can't see how this is problematic. sst✈ 12:24, 10 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep as plausible variant --Lenticel (talk) 00:34, 11 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment: I closed this, but undid it as I'd like for this discussion to stay open another week. At first glance, it's an obvious keep, but the target in the nomination was incorrect. It's not targeting "Propaganda in Russia" but actually pointing to "Propaganda#Russia," and that section doesn't currently exist. In fact there's zero information about modern Russia in the prose of the article. Because of this, I don't think it'd be helpful to keep it like it is. There's a few things we can do to mitigate that problem. The first option is to restore the previous article that existed at this title and clean it up. I'm assuming the former article is the "mendacious" thing the nom is referring to, but I think there's enough there to have a start-class article once the POV is removed/cleaned-up, but I'm not entirely sure. Another option is to retarget to Propaganda in the Soviet Union. The Soviet Union was fairly commonly referred to as "Russia" in a colloquial sense, so it's not completely crazy of an idea, especially with how detailed that article is. Lastly, of course, is a WP:REDLINK deletion to encourage a proper article to develop. Thoughts? -- Tavix (talk) 04:26, 16 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Besides the word "secret" being vague, no such information exists at the target. Steel1943 (talk) 02:01, 16 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • I'd say the fact that the information in the redirect's title is not present in its target article is quite harmful since it misleads readers into thinking they will find information about this subject at the target article. Being old doesn't cancel out a redirect's misleading nature. Steel1943 (talk) 02:54, 16 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]
