Not mentioned at target, but readers might also be looking for Ad libitum. 1234qwer1234qwer4 20:23, 14 August 2024 (UTC)
- Delete per WP:RLANG. Not sure retargeting would be helpful here given the partial title match and the fact that ad libitum is somewhat narrowly focused on performing arts. - Presidentman talk · contribs (Talkback) 19:39, 16 August 2024 (UTC)

Abhiramakella recently created a bunch of redirects with the "Country YYYY (Olympics host)" format to that year's Olympics article. However "Olympics host" would indicate what the Olympics host did in that Olympics, so some of them have been retargeted to the "Country at the Olympics" article. Olympic games are marketed as a city, not a country, so I can't imagine someone searching with this format anyway. Due to the ambiguity and implausibility, these should be deleted. -- Tavix (talk) 18:12, 22 August 2024 (UTC)
- Delete all per nom. Sportsfan 1234 (talk) 20:08, 22 August 2024 (UTC)
- Delete per nom ... and consider starting a discussion to place restrictions on the redirects' creator from creating redirects due to repeat WP:CIR and WP:IDHT issues I've seen with their edits and comments over the past few months. Steel1943 (talk) 20:13, 22 August 2024 (UTC)
- (Specifically, their comments near the bottom of a specific ANI discussion come to mind regarding WP:CIR issues. There are other issues which I could dig in the weeds to find, specifically regarding redirect creation, but that's all I have time to figure out at the moment.) Steel1943 (talk) 20:22, 22 August 2024 (UTC)
- I've considered starting that discussion they've recreated a number of things created at RfD and create redirects 3-4 years out for events in hopes they get the authorship for it or something. They also routinely, and repeatedly, fail to properly communicate. Hey man im josh (talk) 22:12, 22 August 2024 (UTC)
- Delete as implausible. 1234qwer1234qwer4 20:44, 22 August 2024 (UTC)
- Delete: Per nom. I'd also find it acceptable to redirect to CountryName at the YYYY Olympics, which is what I think people would be expecting these to target. For what it's worth, these were created seemingly in response to their CountryName YYYY redirects which were retargeted to YYYY in CountryName. Theres a lot of similar redirects for CountryName Year (association football events), and the like. Hey man im josh (talk) 22:11, 22 August 2024 (UTC)
- That is not quite the reason. It has something to do with CountryName YYYY (Olympics). Abhiramakella (talk) 19:06, 24 August 2024 (UTC)

- Stetson Bennett's final game (college football) → 2023 College Football Playoff National Championship (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
Created as a way to sidestep consensus at Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion/Log/2024 July 26#Stetson Bennett's final game. This isn't a plausible search term. Also, no one else has redirects of this type (nor should they) so there is no expectation of having such a redirect. -- Tavix (talk) 18:00, 22 August 2024 (UTC)
- Delete. While these redirects don't have the same inaccuracy problem as the one previously discussed ("Stetson Bennett's final game", he is currently an active NFL player) they are even less likely search terms. It is worth noting though that the nomination statement isn't quite correct - Peyton Manning's final game exists as a redirect to Superbowl 50 (I offer no opinion here on whether it should exist; Sunday League – Pepik Hnatek's Final Match also exists but that's the title of film). Thryduulf (talk) 21:05, 22 August 2024 (UTC)
- There is nothing incorrect about my nomination statement. The redirects of this type for Payton Manning would be Peyton Manning's final college football game or Peyton Manning's final game (college football) targeting the 1998 Orange Bowl. -- Tavix (talk) 21:12, 22 August 2024 (UTC)

Antiverse redirects to multiverse. Anti universe sometimes also refers to an antigravity universe, not just antimatter universe. Web-julio (talk) 02:51, 11 August 2024 (UTC)
- If there is multiple places where this redirect could go, the best option would probably be to turn it into a disambiguation. MrMeAndMrMeTalk 06:25, 11 August 2024 (UTC)
- Anti universe redirects to Antimatter while Antiverse redirects to multiverse. Redirecting to a disambiguation page as suggested is a solution. 5Q5|✉ 11:15, 12 August 2024 (UTC)
- How much content is there on this Wikipedia describing this topic that we could refer to from that disambiguation page? There is also the option of a Wiktionary redirect to wikt:antiuniverse (which could probably be expanded). 1234qwer1234qwer4 15:37, 12 August 2024 (UTC)

- The result of the discussion was keep. The nomination was withdrawn by the nominator. (non-admin closure) Presidentman talk · contribs (Talkback) 21:55, 24 August 2024 (UTC)
Is a.e.t. used in any sports besides association football? I can't find any evidence of another sport using it, but I could be missing results for less popular sports. If not, I propose that we retarget this redirect to go directly the to Overtime (sports)#Association football section instead of just to the Overtime (sports) article. Wburrow (talk) 16:30, 22 August 2024 (UTC)
- Also, After extra time redirects to the section, not the article. Wburrow (talk) 17:15, 22 August 2024 (UTC)
- Comment AET seems to be used for handball too [2], [3]. Google doesn't distinguish between "a.e.t." and "AET" though so I can't say for certain the dotted lowercase isn't exclusive to football. Thryduulf (talk) 17:20, 22 August 2024 (UTC)
- Thanks - to me that's enough reason to leave A.e.t. alone (and one of the articles you linked to does use the dotted lowercase). Given that, I think After extra time should be retargeted back to the article. I just looked at the page history, and it was boldly retargeted to the section by an IP editor just a couple weeks ago after an RfD in 2015 that resulted in targeting the article. Is this case where I can just revert the IP's edit and we can close this discussion, or do we need a more formal process? (I'm still new to editing at this level.) Wburrow (talk) 17:45, 22 August 2024 (UTC)
- I have reverted the IP's edit to the redirect as unexplained and added that multiple sports use the term "extra time." — Jkudlick ⚓ (talk) 21:10, 23 August 2024 (UTC)

- Keep the redirect as it is, redirecting to the article lead instead of the association football section. As Wburrow seems to have indicated the same willingness to leave the redirect as it is, I would like to suggest that they formally withdraw the RfD to allow for early closure. — Jkudlick ⚓ (talk) 21:13, 23 August 2024 (UTC)

"CountryName Year" redirects are not unambiguously related to events and, per past precedence on the matter, should not be targeted to them. Proposing deletion until a 2026 article for the "YYYY in Country" articles are created. Hey man im josh (talk) 16:13, 22 August 2024 (UTC)
- Note that I actually redirected USA 2026 and United States 2026 to 2026 in the United States already. I felt that important to mention for full disclosure. If these are found to be proper, I will, of course, revert. Hey man im josh (talk) 16:16, 22 August 2024 (UTC)

- CAF Cepia → Renfe Class 120 / 121 (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
No mention of "Cepia" at the target page. Was recently BLAR'd after no response from the page's creator at Talk:CAF Cepia, as the name "Cepia" was seemingly not found anywhere in relation. But furthermore, it's not a helpful redirect as there is no information about this title at the target page, either, nor anywhere on Wikipedia. (AfD might potentially be a suitable venue if non-notable). Utopes (talk / cont) 16:05, 22 August 2024 (UTC)
- Restore and send to AfD as is the correct course of action when an article is BLARed but there is no suitable redirect target, the content is not speedy deletable and has never been subject to a consensus discussion. Thryduulf (talk) 17:31, 22 August 2024 (UTC)
- It depends. I do want to note that I am opposed to a closer sending this to AfD "procedurally". Leave that step for someone who actually wants the article deleted. -- Tavix (talk) 17:49, 22 August 2024 (UTC)
- Revert to status quo. This was just redirected yesterday, so an improper redirection (due to a lack of mention at the target) should have just been reverted. -- Tavix (talk) 17:44, 22 August 2024 (UTC)
- Do whatever; as the editor that blanked and redirected the article, I wouldn't be opposed to a restoration and AfD, I don't have the time and energy to do it myself right now. If in this case the BLAR was out of process, as the redirect term isn't on the taget page, I'll brush up my knowledge on the relevant policies before doing deletion-related editing in the future.

May also refer to Holocene extinction as well as the Holocene is also in the Quaternary Isla🏳️⚧ 10:29, 22 August 2024 (UTC)
- Keep in the scientific literature, "Quaternary extinction event" and the related term "Late Quaternary extinction event" are primarily used to refer to the scope of the Late Pleistocene extinctions article (which was previously titled "Quaternary extinction event" ), rather than to the Holocene extinction. See results in scholar [4]. A hatnote (which is already present) is enough to disambiguate. Hemiauchenia (talk) 10:38, 22 August 2024 (UTC)
- Keep per Hemiauchenia. If not kept then it should be disambiguated, there is definitely no justification for deletion. Thryduulf (talk) 10:59, 22 August 2024 (UTC)

Definitely ambiguous with Infantilism. Retarget there or add the disambiguation page to the (long) hatnote already present? 1234qwer1234qwer4 19:49, 14 August 2024 (UTC)
- {{wi}} -> wikt:infantile. Looking to backlinks, relation to medicaal term infantilism would be confusing, because people suffering from (medical) infantilism are not called "infantile". IMO the current Wiktionary entry is most useful for those who do not know the word. - Altenmann >talk 21:23, 14 August 2024 (UTC)
- Maybe {{Wiktionary hatnote}} instead? 1234qwer1234qwer4 15:23, 15 August 2024 (UTC)

@CycloneYoris: I see two !votes to retarget as a useful search term and one stricken delete in response to the detail in the second retarget recommendation. The only unconvinced I see is whether this is specifically a British English expression. Thryduulf (talk) 10:41, 22 August 2024 (UTC)- @Thryduulf, I don't think this reply ended up in the right section. 1234qwer1234qwer4 15:02, 22 August 2024 (UTC)

I'm not sure this refers to anything meaningful. FWIW, Grandchild redirects to Family#Roles. 1234qwer1234qwer4 19:38, 14 August 2024 (UTC)
- Retarget to Family or Family#Roles. Additionally, I found that Great-grandchild also targets Family (just not the #Roles section), while Great-grandchildren does target #Roles. SmittenGalaxy | talk! 06:48, 15 August 2024 (UTC)
Delete. The "great" prefix is only used in conjunction with the "grand" prefix existing; without the "grand" prefix, the "great" prefix makes no sense, so let's not pretend like it does. Steel1943 (talk) 15:13, 15 August 2024 (UTC)- Striking my vote. See my response to Thryduulf for further details. Steel1943 (talk) 19:14, 15 August 2024 (UTC)
- Retarget per SmittenGalaxy. Contra Steel, the term is used without "grand", see e.g. "my great children and great nephews and nieces"[5], "My great children loved the visit"[6], "It's a gift for my great children and should bring back happy memories to my grand son" [7], "I visit all of my children, then I visit all of my grandchildren, then all of my great children etc" [8], "I will be sharing my Nan’s memories about her Dad and Mum and also the memories of Eileen’s grandchildren and a few of her Great-Children."[9].

- Must be an American versus British English difference I was not aware of then. I like to believe I know most differences between American and British English, and to my knowledge, in American English, the prefix "great" always requires a "grand" prefix after it somewhere when referring to direct ancestors or descendants (children or parents), which does not apply to aunts, uncles, nephews, or nieces. I guess British English is different in this regard? Anywho, my vote has been struck. Steel1943 (talk) 19:14, 15 August 2024 (UTC)
- It's not something I've heard in British English either, I just thought I'd check to see whether it did actually get used (kinship terms can be weird). I didn't think to see if it was an AE/BE thing, but based on the very small sample size of the five links above it doesn't seem to be - 2 are from the UK, 1 from the US, 1 from Canada and 1 wasn't able to quickly determine.

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
Relisting comment: Is "Great-children" truly a plausible search term? Relisting… since participants do not seem entirely convinced.

- @CycloneYoris: I see two !votes to retarget as a useful search term and one stricken delete in response to the detail in the second retarget recommendation. The only unconvinced I see is whether this is specifically a British English expression. Thryduulf (talk) 15:04, 22 August 2024 (UTC)

- Template:Wpest → Template:WikiProject Estonia (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
These unused redirects to be deleted:
- Template:WPEstonia
- Template:WPESTONIA
- Template:Wikiproject estonia
- Template:Wp estonia
- Template:WPEST
- Template:Wpest
- Template:WPEstonia #has 29 usages, but we all will be happy if this redirect also to be deleted
Rationale: Yes, redirects are cheap, but hinders data analysis. E.g. if I want to clean up talk pages consisting of the string "WikiProject Estonia|class=start", then I have to enter all above-mentioned redirects names. Estopedist1 (talk) 04:41, 22 August 2024 (UTC)
- Making life easier for tool authors and similar is not a reason in and of itself to delete redirects that are of use to readers or editors. Certainly Keep Template:WPEstonia as that's demonstrably useful (as evidenced by being used). Not sure at the moment about the others. Thryduulf (talk) 10:55, 22 August 2024 (UTC)
- Keep. Deletion rationale is not supported by any policy or guideline that I'm aware of. ✗plicit 06:39, 29 August 2024 (UTC)
- Keep per the above. Shortcuts are standard, and making it easier for ten people to tag talk pages is worth causing one person additional difficulty. Sorry. Cremastra (talk) 19:54, 29 August 2024 (UTC)
