Casino capitalism

[edit]

The term "casino capitalism" is not used anywhere in the "Economic ideology" article anymore and the section it used to link to no longer exists. ApexParagon (talk) 22:54, 11 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Retarget to Susan Strange as an avoided double redirect to Casino Capitalism. ~2025-31416-56 (talk) 17:54, 12 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Lithuania men's national Under-20 and Under-21 basketball team

Delete all. This is ambiguous. There is also a separate article on Wikipedia about the U21 team: Lithuania men's national under-21 basketball team.

hydrocortisone brand names II

[edit]

Delete (slight strong preference) or retarget to Hydrocortisone. Hydrocortisone and cortisol are two names for the same molecule. 'Hydrocortisone' is the name used for the pharmaceutical product while cortisol is the name used for the endogenous hormone. These are valid {{R from trade name}}'s but these are fairly obscure drug trade names. These were mass created by User:PotatoBot presumably from a comprehensive list of brand names. Consensus has been mixed as to whether we should keep obscure trade (brand) names for drugs and other chemicals. See ongoing discussion at Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion/Log/2025 December 2#Umbrium and the two discussions linked in the Old RfD list template. Do not keep since 'cortisol' is not the proper name for the pharmaceutical. —Myceteae🍄‍🟫 (talk) 00:18, 3 December 2025 (UTC) Edit: Updated listing rationale to reflect my current 'strong' preference for deletion (no longer 'slight'). 01:14, 12 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete all per nom. I would imagine all are listed on PubMed as "user supplied synonyms" for hydrocortisone, but without mention at target, it's not very helpful to have redirects from these obscure trade names, and these are too many to mention at target. I have good faith that the nom has vetted the list of tradenames and nominated the obscure ones that are not clearly associated with cortisol/hydrocortisone. Concur that if kept, these should be retargeted to hydrocortisone as a more appropriate target. Mdewman6 (talk) 07:49, 3 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  • Retarget all to hydrocortisone per nom and the outcome of the first RfD, although I think there could have been consensus to delete if more people had participated in that discussion. No objection to deletion except for consistency's sake. I2Overcome talk 22:55, 4 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    @I2Overcome there are many more of these and we can establish a new consensus to delete these redirects now… 🙃 —Myceteae🍄‍🟫 (talk) 23:50, 4 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

Delete. Every mention of this name was removed by an anon in 2024; that edit was reverted by another anon, but then reinstated by Waxworker ([2] and [3]). – Fayenatic London 17:42, 11 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]

La Vacca Saturno Saturnita

Delete per nom 77qq 💬 contributions 21:20, 11 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per nom, not mentioned at target. To my knowledge, this is a legitimate Italian brainrot character, but I'm probably too old to know mostly anything about Italian brainrot. ~2025-31416-56 (talk) 17:58, 12 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Death factory

[edit]

"Death factory" is an uncommon at best term for the Nazi extermination camps. It is not mentioned on page, and is more of a generic colloquialism for all sorts of unpleasant historic things, including literally deadly factories, proverbial factories of death, including Japanese biological warfare factories, and the capital punishment system in South Africa, among others. Beyond this, it's an extremely plausible typo for "Death Factory", which is the disambiguation page for two films. There's no clear primacy of the term here to mean Nazi extermination camps. As the page notes, it's a colloquialism for that, but it's a colloquialism for many things. Iskandar323 (talk) 14:20, 11 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Ambiguous euphemism. ~2025-31416-56 (talk) 17:58, 12 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Gustoff Climt

[edit]

This is an implausible typo of Gustav Klimt, I seriously doubt anyone is mistakenly spelling his name this way. Golem08 (talk) 14:08, 11 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Delete implausible 77qq 💬 contributions 21:21, 11 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Weak keep Phonetic misspelling. I could see someone genuinely making this mistake. However, pageview count is low. ~2025-31416-56 (talk) 18:00, 12 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]

dracula vlad ţepeş

[edit]

implausible order, and the results seem purely coincidental or procedural (thus, stuff like "dracula/vlad ţepeş" or "dracula (vlad ţepeş)"). i guess it's also vague with other depictions of vlad the impaler, and maybe the man himself depending on who you ask

also, there's an orchid species known as "dracula vlad-tepes", which is really funny, but it has no english article yet :( consarn (talck) (contirbuton s) 13:22, 11 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]

retarget to vlad the impaler or disambiguate Oreocooke (talk) 16:50, 11 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]
no, that would first require some context in which a last-first-middle name be plausible outside of a single orchid with a flower that looks like an unwashed asshole... and i guess that there be other draculae (draculi? dracula?) known by this full name, as a two entry dab isn't worth more than, say, a hatnote
wait, does this specific name even apply to the vlad who enjoyed impaling people or the vlad who was a pimp? because it seems "dracula" and "ţepeş" are mutually exclusive outside of castlevania and touhou consarn (talck) (contirbuton s) 18:43, 11 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Yongin FC

[edit]

Delete the target Yongin FC article redirect, it is unused and wrongly redirected to Yongin Football Center, and now the new professional club Yongin FC was just founded and the article cannot be created because of this old and wrong redirect. Snowflake91 (talk) 09:33, 11 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]

another article can still be plopped on top of this title, so there's no issue in that area consarn (talck) (contirbuton s) 13:56, 11 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]
comment: yeah I'm not entirely sure how to handle this Oreocooke (talk) 16:52, 11 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]
I agree, a new article can be written at Yongin FC without need to delete this. But if there is no plan to write such an article soon and the current redirect is incorrect or likely to mislead then it should be deleted. So, I guess, delete unless a new article is written before this closes. —Myceteae🍄‍🟫 (talk) 02:47, 12 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Keep for now. The other article should be written as a draft, and it can probably be moved to mainspace at some point. ~2025-31416-56 (talk) 18:02, 12 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Romance peoples

[edit]

Proposing a redirect to Latins#Latin peoples and regions. Much more of an exact match, contentwise. A user who searches up "Romance peoples" more than likely is seeking information on the "peoples"/demographic terminology aspect rather than about the languages themselves. Evaporation123 (talk) 07:50, 11 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]

you're supposed to put what it currently redirects to, not what you want it to redirect to. Oreocooke (talk) 16:53, 11 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]
ftfy (also retarget to Latins#Latin peoples and regions per nom)

Billy The Kid Museum

[edit]

There's another Billy the Kid Museum in New Mexico, and it appears to be at least as if not more prominent in search results. The target article doesn't mention the museum directly, so the redirect isn't very helpful for readers looking for the Texas museum and is just confusing for readers looking for the New Mexico museum.

ISO 639:simple

[edit]

Am I right that this is not an ISO code? If so, proposing deletion Too old for R3, but its use in WMF environment makes me hesitate on G3. Happy Editing -- IAmChaos 02:54, 11 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]

comment: I understand R3, but please enlighten me on how this could be vandalist. Oreocooke (talk) 16:57, 11 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]

1Sa.

[edit]

Seems implausible, unnatural as search term, and if anything, a web search of it turns up other targets. Currently only other redirects and some obscure hatnotes direct here. Iskandar323 (talk) 08:49, 19 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: My guess here is that the redirect is intended to be a {{R avoided double redirect}} for 1 Samuel1 Samuel. We also have redirects "2Sa.", "2 Samuel2 Samuel" and "2nd Samuel2nd Samuel", but no "1st Samuel". (I currently have no opinion on the nominated redirect.)

2025 Progressive Conservative Party of Prince Edward Island leadership election

[edit]

Article was created at this title back in March, after the province's premier suddenly resigned and reliable sources (such as they are in Canada's east) expected a leadership election to happen quickly. It was announced today that the election will be held in February 2026, so the page was moved.

President of Belgium

[edit]

Recently created and the position doesn’t exist, but similar redirects have proven controversial. I contested an R3 speedy deletion to bring this here for the community to decide what to do with it. I believe it should just be deleted as unnecessary and potentially misleading, along with Prime Minister of the United States and President of the United Kingdom (both separate, open discussions).

alas, there actually is an accident here, as the formatting causes the systems to mistake the date for part of your signature. why you'd be signing this impoperly in the first place is beyond me, though consarn (talck) (contirbuton s) 19:48, 11 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]
