This is a list of redirects that have been proposed for deletion or other action on February 2, 2024.

England YYYY (Association football event) redirects

Ambiguous term which could refer to a number of different events (see Category:2020–21 in English football, Category:2021–22 in English football, and Category:2022–23 in English football). Hey man im josh (talk) 19:14, 24 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Keep "England 2022" - sports events are known by their country-year shorthand name, and this was the only major football event to take place in England in 2022. Like other redirects of the same format, this should be kept, it's not ambiguous in the sense that nobody will mistake it (especially disambiguated with "association football event", emphasis mine) for any generic match.
Create disambiguation for "England 2021" - even though this event still has the England 2021 branding, it took place in 2022, while the Men's Euro 2020, which held most of its matches in England, in fact took place in 2021. Because of the possibility of confusing these similar events, the redirect should be turned into a disambiguation page. Kingsif (talk) 23:02, 24 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Kingsif: "sports events are known by their country-year shorthand name" - I'm quite the sports focused editor and very active at redirect reviewing and this is not standard practice in my experience. You mentioned branding, do you have anything that supports "England 2022" as the branding used? Hey man im josh (talk) 23:32, 24 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
do you have anything that supports "England 2022" as the branding used? - the logo at the article in question, for one. Kingsif (talk) 23:36, 24 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
That's only a portion of the logo, I did find "Euro England 2022" when looking prior to and after this nomination. Hey man im josh (talk) 23:47, 24 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Okay, if you go to the UEFA website for the Women's Euro, you will see that "UEFA Women's Euro" (the rest of the logo) is there by itself in the top corner. Hence, the branding for the event is what remains. Just going to also note that Euros also get called "Euro YEAR", which I have to assume is another redirect, but we're talking about this.
Trying to avoid the search results talking about England winning, there's e.g. this headline Will England 2022 be the best Women's Euros ever?. Useful redirect. IMO. Kingsif (talk) 00:02, 25 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you for the links, I'll dig into it a bit more when I'm back on PC. The entry for the FA Cup is coming up for me when searching but that doesn't mean you're not correct that it was used as a common name for the event. Hey man im josh (talk) 00:10, 25 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I'm quite the sports focused editor and very active at redirect reviewing and this is not standard practice in my experience. - that seems... nigh-impossible, unless you only edit sports that do not have international tournaments. I considered maybe North America does not use such names and that's your blind spot (not a reason to delete, just a reason you wouldn't know), but then I typed in the first event I thought of (Qatar 2022) in a private tab, and CNN (North American) was the second non-Wikipedia result (A year on from Qatar 2022, what’s the legacy of a World Cup like no other?). It's how it is. Kingsif (talk) 23:40, 24 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Definitely not a blind spot for me and I'd prefer you not jump to conclusions about me. On my phone England 2022 actually brought up results for the 2022 FIFA World Cup. Hey man im josh (talk) 23:52, 24 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Didn't jump to conclusions, and I referred to a continent, not you, with one of the possibilities I considered. Good chat, man. Well, no. If you're trying to suggest that people would search "England 2022" to find out about Qatar 2022, I don't know if you're being facetious or you want to continue trying to deny the shorthand name's existence, but it's past the point of anything needed to be said. Kingsif (talk) 00:10, 25 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I do not believe that England 2022 should refer to the Qatar 2022 World Cup, I was just mentioning that it brought me a lot more results about the World Cup and didn't bring me to the target article. Hey man im josh (talk) 00:12, 25 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Noted. As for the RfD, I don't think that excludes it from being a relevant and useful redirect. Keeping the redirect might be helpful, in fact. Kingsif (talk) 00:27, 25 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Relisting comment: Disambiguate or delete for England 2021 (Association football event)?
Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Steel1943 (talk) 23:58, 2 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: England 2022 (Association football event) was not tagged until after the relist. Steel1943 (talk) 00:04, 3 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
...Because this happened 2 days after the redirect was nominated and originally tagged. Steel1943 (talk) 00:05, 3 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Sheinhardt Wig Company

For fans of the show, this redirect's connection is obvious as Sheinhardt is mentioned throughout the show; however, a fan of the show would also know to search for 30 Rock if looking for information on the show. For others though, this redirect targetting 30 Rock without mention could confuse people who are looking for information on Sheinhardt only to see that it redirects to 30 Rock without an explanation as to the connection between the two. It seems that at List of 30 Rock characters#C. C. there is an explanation of Sheinhardt, but it's an odd target and if the page is restructured, which seems to happen often on list of character pages, then it could be back to not being helpful. I think it might be best that this redirect is deleted. TartarTorte 15:36, 24 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment: I'm actually doing a rewatch of the show right now and it's hard not to notice how often the name of the company is brought up. It's the fictional subsidiary of GE / parent company of NBC in 30 Rock. My gut says it's a useful redirect because I actually planned on looking up whether it was a real company or not. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Hey man im josh (talkcontribs) 19:50, 24 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Hey man im josh, I've been rewatching the show as well, which is how I came across this redirect and nominated it because there was sadly no information about Sheinhardt. I almost think that there should be a page for things in 30 Rock that aren't characters but are notable elements of the show to have their own article. Maybe Fictional corporations in 30 Rock and there could also be a section on Kabletown? I'm not sure if that would end up being able to be notable enough to be its own article, but the 30 Rock article itself is too large to fit it into in my view, so I think an article like that could be helpful just for readability purposes.

Relisting comment: It's not very clear what resolution is being proposed here, considering the nominator seemed to have changed their opinion about what to do with the redirect after another participant commented???

New Year's Day earthquake

There are a number of major earthquakes which happened on January 1, such as Galilee earthquake of 1837, 1996 Sulawesi earthquake, 1980 Azores Islands earthquake, and 2000 Kipawa earthquake. The redirect might cause confusion and should be deleted. Prefuture (talk) 12:51, 6 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • Disambiguate: As stated above. Happy Editing--IAmChaos 05:33, 16 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Disambiguate per the above. Rusalkii (talk) 22:31, 16 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Dabify per above --Lenticel (talk) 00:52, 17 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. I mean, it's just a day? There's nothing significant about the fact that it's on a day of the year. It becomes incredibly inconvenient to maintain (every time an article is written on a January 1 earthquake, it needs to get added to the disambiguation page that people might not even know about). Earthquakes happen on New Year's Eve, Christmas and Valentine's Day too, but I wouldn't expect there to be pages dedicated to those topics, much less "January 2 earthquake", "January 3 earthquake", and etc. Then there's the other natural disasters, or even ANY recurring event that takes place on ANY random day. My stance is that there are no "New Year's Day earthquakes", just earthquakes that take place on January 1st, just as they take place on any other day in the calendar. I don't think this is a good dab-page precedent; search engines are built for these terms. Utopes (talk / cont) 23:33, 21 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Disambig. Utopes' stance is a reasonable one for them to hold, but it's not one that is particularly relevant. What matters is that people, rightly or wrongly (and it is irrelevant to us which it is), do call an earthquake that happen on 1 January a "New Year's Day earthquake" and so that term is used to find articles on Wikipedia. They also do this with other named days, c.f. Good Friday earthquake, Boxing Day tsunami, etc. It is our job as Wikipedians to enable readers to find the content they are looking for as easily as possible when it is clear what they are looking for. Thryduulf (talk) 13:40, 22 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
That's fair as well, thank you for the links to parallel examples re:Good Friday earthquake and Boxing Day tsunami! I'm willing to retract my !vote in favor of a disambiguation at this title, as it seems that we do have other instances of disasters with the named date in front. Those look to be brought about by exceptional circumstances, and I can imagine this too being an exceptional circumstance as a major earthquake. Admittedly I'm somewhat worried about the implications that "as long as someone calls something [X], we must enable that term to find articles." because it justifies the existence of some nonsensical redirects for the sole reason that X people call something Y. People call things a lot of other things, but not all things need to be redirected. In any case, I can agree that disambiguation may be the safer play after all.

Keep as primary target per Russell and hatnote if we have another page with other Jan 1 earthquakes. Jay 💬 08:20, 31 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Keep but Disambiguate. The phrase is in use[1]. Several of the arguments here against are just odd, including one that amounts to an argument against disambiguation pages generally. -- C. A. Russell (talk) 13:07, 25 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
Relisting comment: One more attempt at consensus. Seems that "disambiguate" and "delete" are the front runners at this time. (Someone may want to consider drafting a disambiguation page.)

Μa

I'm not sure what the optimal outcome for this title is, but this redirect doesn't seem to make any sense. For example, it could also be referring to something at wikt:ma, or anything at MA. I think it would be best to retarget it to MA or delete it. Tol (talk | contribs) @ 03:38, 6 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • Retarget μa, μb, μh, and μt to Ampere, Barn (unit), Henry (unit), and Tesla (unit) respectively; μS should continue to point to Siemens (unit). My reasoning is that sometimes unit symbols are capitalized incorrectly, and that these units are the only ones listed (on the letter disambiguation pages) for which base-10 unit submultiples smaller than deci- milli- are either mentioned in the articles as valid terms or appear to be in common use (e.g. see Decibel#Definition regarding microbel). Note that the current target of μS already mentions that the unit symbol for the second differs only in letter case. Also, μa should match μA rather than point to Angstrom or a disambiguation page, because that other unit's symbol differs in more than just capitalization. PleaseStand (talk) 11:12, 16 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    So I looked at Hectare and Tonne again, and centiare and millitonne are in fact mentioned. Also, Bar (unit), which is not listed on the disambiguation page, lists b and mb as deprecated symbols. I still think, however, that since microare, microtonne, and microbar are not in common use, it is more likely that the unit symbol is incorrectly capitalized.

Relisting comment: One more attempt at consensus, given that I'm not sure that a "no consensus" close will resolve this discussion due to the minimal support for a "keep" option.

I agree with Swale. Aaron Liu (talk) 22:47, 20 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Retarget to Seed money. I've added a hatnote there for the film, which is a good idea regardless of the outcome here. DIFFCAPS allows redirecting to the film, but does not require it, and the film is a relatively minor topic. --BDD (talk) 19:47, 30 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Sofía of Spain

Dabify - WP:NOPRIMARY. We should consider both pageviews and long-term significance. I would agree that Queen Sofía undoubtedly wins the latter factor, but she does not have consistently more pageviews than her granddaughter [3]. estar8806 (talk) 22:54, 2 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Deep state in Russia

No longer mentioned at target, although Deep state § Chechnya is there, so we could retarget there? Or just delete. QueenofHearts 06:03, 26 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Ultra short-term memory

"Ultra" is not mentioned at the target, and using Search for "Ultra short-term memory" will show Short-term memory in the results. Shhhnotsoloud (talk) 09:31, 26 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Keep, while a mention of "ultra" would be nice, I don't think it's a completely requirement in this case. People who use this search term will completely understand why they ended up at the target article, and might have previously thought that "ultra" is part of this subject's terminology. Utopes (talk / cont) 22:59, 26 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Well no, if I'm using this search term I'd be specifically wanting information on "ultra short-term memory", such as a definition or a time-span that qualifies for 'ultra'. In this scenario, I would already be familiar with short-term memory, so being redirected there does not help me find what I'm looking for. In fact, it would be even worse then not having a redirect, because there would be a time where I would assume the information I am looking for is there, only to end up disappointed after poking around the target for a time. -- Tavix (talk) 01:38, 29 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Seems redundant. And as nom stated, typing it in the search bar it will already be the first result. There are thousands of these redundant redirects by the way. This one also has no incoming links from mainspace pages, (except for USTM (disambiguation)) which is again redundant as the page Ultra short-term memory was originally created as a redirect anyway so USTM (disambiguation) doesn't need disambiguation and can be deleted as well. -- œ 23:56, 26 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
"Redundant" is never a reason to delete a redirect, search suggestions are only available for a subset of ways people find Wikipedia content so are also not relevant to determining a redirect's utility and the existence and number of incoming links are explicitly irrelevant. Thryduulf (talk) 12:41, 27 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Keep per Utopes. Nobody is going to be surprised by arriving at this target having used this search term. Thryduulf (talk) 12:42, 27 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Webware

"Webware" is not mentioned at the target article Web application, and anyway is ambiguous. "Webware" as a blog is not mentioned at CNET but is mentioned at Rafe Needleman but I don't think that's a good target. I suggest delete both and use Search.

UEFA Euro Azerbaijan-Denmark-England-Germany-Hungary-Italy-Netherlands-Romania-Russia-Scotland-Spain 2020

Unlikely search term that does not aid in navigation. UEFA Euro 2020 is part of this title. Hey man im josh (talk) 13:20, 2 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

2023 Belgorod incident

Ambiguous and euphemistic. There were many other things that happened in Belgorod this year, I don't see this being useful to readers. HappyWith (talk) 04:53, 31 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I don't think people are looking up stuff like 1942 Stalingrad incident or 2001 New York City incident to read articles. The redirect is not practical and we don't have the obligation of accommodating it if it is giving us problems. Super Dromaeosaurus (talk) 11:59, 31 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Why do you think that people are not using plausible search terms to read articles? Why is this redirect not practical? Thryduulf (talk) 13:23, 31 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
"2023 Belgorod incident" is not plausible. "2023 Belgorod incident" gives a grand total of 2 Google results, both related to Wikipedia. "incident" is an ambiguous word which I seriously doubt anyone will use to find a certain event unless it is popularly known under such word. Which is not the case of anything that has happened in Belgorod this year. We can't gift everything to readers, they will have to put a minimum effort into looking up the article they want to read. 2023 Belgorod event, 2023 happening in Belgorod, 2023 Belgorod occurrence would be just as useful and they really shouldn't exist. Super Dromaeosaurus (talk) 14:06, 31 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete ambiguous and problematic redirect. Just delete it. Super Dromaeosaurus (talk) 11:59, 31 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment I created the page and it was initially titled that because I wanted to avoid calling it “strikes” or “shelling” because it was not confirmed if that was what it was at the time, because both Ukraine and Russia have blamed each other for it. So instead, I titled it “2023 Belgorod incident”, so that is the reason why it redirects to the current page. MountainDew20 (talk) 23:37, 31 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Peakin'

It is not helpful to redirect to a target that has no mention of the subject in question. These redirects do imply that these songs charted, so they may be notable per WP:NSONG. Deletion to encourage article creation may be desirable. -- Tavix (talk) 21:24, 21 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: Peaking is a disambiguation page and could be a plausible target (and the song could be a plausible entry on the dab as well). No opinion on most of the rest. Duckmather (talk) 18:25, 28 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I would oppose this unless there is evidence of Peakin' at the Beacon being referred to in this manner. -- Tavix (talk) 23:01, 31 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  • Retarget to Peaking as a harmless alternative to deletion; other song/album possibilities can be added in the dab's See Also section if wanted, but totally optional and doesn't affect the decision (equating peaking and peakin', with the latter being a variation of the former). Utopes (talk / cont) 01:09, 25 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete I find it extremely unlikely a user would search any of the topics on the disambiguation page this way; they'd almost certainly be looking for a topic we don't cover, presumably this song. --BDD (talk) 20:52, 29 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Genderphobia

A term not mentioned at the target page. Thinking about this title from a literal perspective, I would imagine that genderphobia would be a "fear of gender" / "phobia of gender" rather than anything necessarily trans related. It seems as if these are completely different topics. Even if the definition of a "phobia of gender-nonconforming individuals" is taken into account, it's still not a very useful redirect if its use or definition is never discussed at the page.

P:HVNY/DYK

Much of the contribution to this page was made in 2011, making this subpage more or less abandoned. This page does not seem like it needs to exist as a pseudo-namespace redirect, all while occupying mainspace with the rest of articles. Utopes (talk / cont) 06:17, 26 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The first redirect has a surprisingly high number of page views, probably because it is linked from Wikipedia:Shortcut as an example. It does no harm at the moment, so keep at least until it has been out of use for a while. —Kusma (talk) 20:10, 26 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Post-war Germany vs post-war Japan

This is a previous title of Responses of Germany and Japan to World War II crimes, which was redirected to the target at AfD in 2006. That redirect is of marginal utility, but this one is outright misleading: There are many metrics by which one can compare post-war Germany and post-war Japan, of which attitude toward war crimes is but one. -- Tamzin[cetacean needed] (they|xe) 01:38, 26 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

What an odd redirect... I don't think it has any value in keeping. There doesn't look to be any serious comparison of Germany and Japan at the War crime article. Moreover, you're right - war crimes are only one of the ways a "Germany vs Japan" comparison can be made.
Delete this redirect. If someone wants to make an article with an actual analysis of post-war Germany and Japan, they could do so - and maybe with a more encyclopedic name... PhotogenicScientist (talk) PhotogenicScientist (talk) 14:18, 26 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Bonus hole

Tagged for speedy deletion as repost, but Wikipedia:Redirects_for_discussion/Log/2018_June_24#Bonus_hole says the previous target was Vagina so I declined. In any case, I believe this is ambiguous and it has not been shown to be a reasonably widely used way to refer to the yaoi hole concept. —Kusma (talk) 23:36, 25 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Airport MRT station

There are several different Airport MRT stations that this title may refer to. This partial title match is often shared with other stations, and would otherwise be a generic title which can confuse readers, just as it confused me. Utopes (talk / cont) 22:21, 25 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Domain separation (cryptography)

I think that this redirect should be deleted. It is unnecessary and unlikely to be used, given that domain separation is not ambiguous. Evgeny Kapun (talk) 22:11, 25 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep. The term is very generic. The most popular use AFAIK is in machine learning, see, for example, [6]. There is a gazillion other uses, see the search in Google Scholar: [7]. The NIST use of the term is actually fairly limited once the big world is considered. There is no reason to usurp the "domain crossing" for anything but a future disambiguation.

Green Bay Packers first season

Per WP:RFD#DELETE #2, the redirect may cause confusion because the term "Green Bay Packers first season" could mean their first season ever (1919 Green Bay Packers season) or their first season in the NFL (1921 Green Bay Packers season). « Gonzo fan2007 (talk) @ 22:06, 25 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Relisting comment: Retarget to List of Green Bay Packers seasons? Or to 1919 Green Bay Packers season?
