The result of the discussion was No consensus to delete and the retarget seems reasonable.Tikiwont (talk) 19:55, 29 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

A proposed deletion of this article was averted by redirecting to Dragonlance, but there is nothing called "Player's Guide to the Dragonlance Campaign" on the Dragonlance article, nor can I find any mention on other related Wikipedia articles. The title should not be added to Wikipedia at all unless there are reliable sources discussing it. I see no sources to justify the existence of this title, neither as an article nor as a redirect. Neelix (talk) 21:20, 9 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

  • Redirect to List of Dragonlance modules and sourcebooks. There is a review in White Wolf magazine, an independent reliable source, but I do not yet have access to this magazine. The review can be added at a future point, but there is no reason not to have a redirect in the meantime. BOZ (talk) 21:25, 9 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was Keep Whilst nonofficial it is deemed to have been picked up sufficiently to count as reasonable alternate name. Tikiwont (talk) 20:09, 29 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Prod removed from this redirect so listing here with the reason given on the prod

"Redirect is a name that was made up by fans, has no need for this website." Rotten regard Softnow 20:06, 9 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

  • Weak Keep, given it's likely use as a search term. --Izno (talk) 04:17, 10 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. Page-view statistics show this is a well-used redirect, and it seems a valid {{R from other name}}. No reason to delete. Thryduulf (talk) 16:44, 11 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment: Till the World Ends Tour should go to the same place (or also be deleted) . Siuenti (talk) 19:15, 13 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep - terms made up by fans are plausible (indeed, likely) search terms. WilyD 08:13, 14 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete Sorry, did not know this was moved here. Again, I support deletion. Even if it is a fan name, it was a name that way made by a selct few even when the tour had an official name. As seen on the history , no one but the creator (and the person who made it a redirect) has even edited it. If you look at the page history it started off as a completely bogus page to begin with. Official sources never referred to it by this either. --Shadow (talk) 06:55, 17 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Redirects usually have very few edits, since there's nothing to edit. And being unofficial is irrelevant. Ego White Tray (talk) 13:31, 21 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was Delete. Tikiwont (talk) 14:54, 17 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Another redirect, same situation, same promotional editor. The proper way of handling articles on less than notable authors is not by linking to the subject--this just perpetuates and even enhances the promotionalism. DGG ( talk ) 04:21, 9 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete per nom. Fails WP:AUTHOR and WP:BK. Qworty (talk) 04:57, 9 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep - if she's non-notable, there's no reason to encourage article creation by redlinking. WilyD 08:15, 14 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete per the same rationale on the RfD below. The Blade of the Northern Lights (話して下さい) 22:09, 14 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete, not mentioned at target, so redirection would mean a wild goose chase. Siuenti (talk) 23:34, 14 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

The hopelessly promotional article about a non-notable author was redirected to the subject she writes about. I don't think it's even worth that--she is not one of the major figures on the subject, just an ordinary therapist. With respect to the background, see User talk:Connieshaw DGG ( talk ) 04:19, 9 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete per nom. Fails WP:AUTHOR and WP:BK. Qworty (talk) 04:56, 9 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep - if she's non-notable, there's no reason to encourage article creation. WilyD 08:14, 14 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete pretty much per Qworty; she's completely non-notable and the target page doesn't mention her name or have any information remotely relevant. The Blade of the Northern Lights (話して下さい) 22:08, 14 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete, not mentioned at target, so redirection would mean a wild goose chase. Siuenti (talk) 23:34, 14 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]
