February 7

This is a list of redirects that have been proposed for deletion or other action on February 7, 2012

Lakoda Rayne members

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 all. I have closed WP:Articles for deletion/Lakoda Rayne as "Redirect to List of The X Factor finalists (U.S. season 1)#Lakoda Rayne." Looking at that article, individual members of other unsuccessful bands do not have redirects to it. JohnCD (talk) 16:02, 16 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

  • I think this nomination is premature. If the target article is deleted by the AfD discussion, all the inbound redirects will be deleted at the same time. (Or at least, they should be.) If the article is kept (unlikely in my opinion but possible), then these redirects would be allowable by whatever reasoning keeps the target page. Rossami (talk) 14:06, 7 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  • Follow the target's fate. Please keep open unless AfD is closed. — Dmitrij D. Czarkoff (talk) 20:57, 8 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was delete all listed except Paul Ellwood, Jr. which I have saved of my own initiative. Nominator has reserved the other most important ones. Four redirects saved out of seventy created - that's got to be some kind of record! JohnCD (talk) 16:22, 16 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Delete all. Numerous redirects made by article creator. I have omitted Paul Ellwood, P M Ellwood and Paul M. Ellwood from the nomination. Redirects are cheap but this is excessive. Without a redirect the article would still be the first search hit for a lot of them. I haven't tagged the redirects. PrimeHunter (talk) 00:14, 7 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete all per nom. – ukexpat (talk) 01:28, 7 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete all per nom, this is bordering SEO level.--Lenticel (talk) 05:20, 7 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete most. I'd save Paul Ellwood, Jr., Paul M Ellwood, Paul M Ellwood Jr, Paul Ellwood Jr, Paul Ellwood, Jr, and Paul M Ellwood, Jr. This particular name has more variants than most so a few more redirects than most is justified, but there's obviously no need to go into initials and qualifications and reversed forms. (I'd also recommend creation of Paul Ellwood Jr., which is conspicuous in its absence from the above list.) – hysteria18 (talk) 03:23, 8 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
