Delete, this was a piece of trivia about the oldest Wal-Mart employee that has since been deleted (and rightfully so, he's not a significant part of Wal-Mart history). -- Tavix (talk) 22:36, 6 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. implausible caps, combined with a spelling of "." as "DOT" makes this unhelpful as a search term. -- Tavix (talk) 22:08, 6 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

See also Wikipedia:Redirects_for_discussion/Log/2015_November_19#Print_making_in_Japan, yesterday.

If you want to recreate something you can, but someone relisted the last batch. They still need to be deleted, since there are many ways to make a print as shown at printmaking and the Japanese are not restricted to wood blocks. Legacypac (talk) 08:10, 20 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
See that discussion! Johnbod (talk) 08:42, 20 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Okay, I'll qualify mine: "printings" might be an (IMO ugly) synonym for print run ( → Edition_(book)#Print_run), but that is not the sense meant here, which refers to the process, not the result. — Preceding unsigned comment added by SimonTrew (talkcontribs) 09:20, 20 November 2015
It's a perfectly normal plural, the singular is a near-synonym, though at least in the printing industry they are not interchangeable. A print-run always comes with a quantity. Johnbod (talk) 10:24, 20 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
I'm quite au fait with print trade jargon; I've worked for various branches on and off for many years. We have Impression (publishing) to the same target, for example; but not printings, and that's not at the target. You're assuming (I think: I don't want to put words in your mouth) that "printing" is OK as a (countable) noun, whereas I was saying no, it is only a verb. So I chucked "ten printings" into gsearch and indeed it is used in the sense of a countable noun in RS. I am still not sure it applies beyond the book trade. Si Trew (talk) 15:41, 20 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
We also have an anomaly in that wood-block printwoodcut (18 redirects) whereas woodblock print (and most others derived from "wood", "block" and "print") → woodblock printing (16 redirects). Si Trew (talk) 09:20, 20 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
I've raised that separately at #Wood-block print, above. Si Trew (talk) 10:01, 20 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Now only 14 redirects - 2 with "woodcut" in the title should obviously go there, and now do. Johnbod (talk) 11:02, 20 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Those being Woodcut printing andf woodcut printing. (I checked.) There's nothing wrong with the quantity of redirects: I mentioned them because the Japanese target on its own has several times more, and "woodcut" and "wood-block printing" gets by with far fewer, and most of them quite uncontroversial.
I've added {{R to section}} to those that are thus. I note Color woodcut is to a section (and I've added a category as such) but Coloured woodcut and Colored woodcut are not; Colour woodcut is red. Si Trew (talk) 16:06, 20 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Now all consistent: "REDIRECTWoodcut#Colour R to section" Johnbod (talk) 17:04, 27 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep the three that mention wood. I don't see the relevance of woodblock/woodcut confusion here, since the target article is "Woodblock printing". Delete the three that don't mention wood, since they could cause confusion and seem like unlikely search terms. --BDD (talk) 16:34, 1 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
A strange distinction. "Block print" on google shows lots of usage [1], and even book titles. Apart from linoleum, all deal with woodblocks. Johnbod (talk) 15:09, 9 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Maybe Japanese block-printings and Japanese block printings, then, though I'm still wary of redirecting terms from what is actually a broader topic. Not Japanese blockprintings, though. That's not even a real word. --BDD (talk) 19:29, 15 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Central bell panel

The result of the discussion was delete. --BDD (talk) 19:24, 15 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

The "see also" section of Doorbell article includes "Central bell panel", which redirects to Doorbell article in a loop. Central bell panel is not the same as a Doorbell - a Central bell panel refers to the 18th-19th century servant-calling bell systems. There is an article for Bell pull which links to a main article of "Central bell panel", but that just redirects to Doorbell. 206.196.184.98 (talk) 05:31, 20 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Though I could probably stub that, with RS from the Trew Mobile Woodware Library, to be more than merely a definition, e.g. to discuss ergonomic ("human factors engineering") aspects of layout and so on. Si Trew (talk) 06:10, 20 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Seems a pretty generic term, I'm not sure redirecting it to this article (which doesn't mention the term) is productive. Jenks24 (talk) 14:31, 20 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Comment. That's odd. All the top 20 ghits are for this book, but it's not mentioned, nor at Eileen Chang, the writer. It looks like it was the working title: http://www.zonaeuropa.com/culture/c20081005_1.htm. Si Trew (talk) 16:22, 20 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep. I've reviewed the source that Si Trew has found (it helpfully linked to 3 other newspaper sources) and can confirm that The Spyring is indeed the original English title of the novel. Since Si also pointed out that the top 20 GHits are all about this novel, we should keep the redirect pointing to the novel per Wikipedia:Primary topic. Deryck C. 19:10, 6 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

We don't seem to have an article on this person, but maybe should. The redirect just points to a mention of him. He is not Knowledge. Delete to encourage article creation Legacypac (talk) 01:53, 20 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

That is where the character seems to come from (unclear if he was a real person or not) Legacypac (talk) 08:13, 20 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Previous RfDs for this redirect and similar redirects:

Delete. Clearly mistargeted. The target page describes the relevant award as first given out in 2006, but the only reference to the "Male Escort Award" refers to it being awarded in 1999, 2000, 2001, and 2002. Two different non-notable awards with similar generic names given out by two different organizations. The Big Bad Wolfowitz (aka Hullaballoo) (talk) 17:29, 11 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

  • How can a section titled "International Escort Awards" be an incorrect target for "Male Escort Awards" when that is precisely what the section covers? The International Escort Awards is an annual award ceremony for male escorts,... – it doesn't get any more correct than that, does it?  Paine  11:39, 30 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Delete, article doesn't mention anything about "Myspace quizzes." That doesn't exactly surprise me, quizzes were (are?) just unofficial bulletins. Whatever the case, you won't find any Myspace quizzes at the article, so it's confusing. -- Tavix (talk) 16:08, 6 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

South Ossetia is a disputed territory, Georgian de-jure and independent under Russian influence de-facto. Redirecting this to Georgia is a misleading and non-neutral POV, and it's not that relevant because the current target article doesn't mention South Ossetia. Amir E.

Partial match to Fakhr al-Mulk Radwan but usage is below bot noise level. It just makes things harder to find as it sits. Legacypac (talk) 05:06, 6 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

This redirect gets no meaningful traffic. The target means Dragon Well. There is a tea named for the target, but it does not justify the use of the word Enjoy. Delete as useless. Legacypac (talk) 05:01, 6 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I can't substantiate that this means piggybacking, or that is even a word at all. It appears to be invented by the IP creator and then redirected based on the made up definition of a fake word. Legacypac (talk) 04:51, 6 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Old redirect of a first name to DAB for a quite different name. Makes no sense as far as I can tell. Legacypac (talk) 04:41, 6 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

  • I found a few people with the given name, so I've converted it into a given name set index. I'm not sure what connection the two names are, but if anyone finds a connection, it can be added to the index. -- Tavix (talk) 16:20, 6 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
