The result of the discussion was delete. This may be recreated if information is added to the article. -- Tavix (talk) 16:53, 26 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • José CorreiraLizzie Borden  (talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ] 

Not mentioned at the target article. I had to Google this, but a person by this name apparently killed someone else in the area with an ax, which helped lead to Borden's acquittal. Is this worth incorporating into the article? There's also a mention of a Portuguese athlete by this name on Wikipedia, but he probably isn't suitable for retargeting. BDD (talk) 18:56, 6 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Add back to the article a sentence or two about him. --RAN (talk) 20:39, 6 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • ShivAcharyaVishwakarma (caste)  (talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ] 

No evidence that this community exists, therefore pointless redirect Sitush (talk) 14:36, 18 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment I do see Shiv Achar listed in that article. AngusWOOF (barksniff) 02:48, 19 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • But not in the cited source. That paragraph has a "verification needed" tag and appears to fail it. The Vishwakarma article has been subject to a massive amount of incompetent pov-pushing.pov-forking etc over the years. - Sitush (talk) 08:40, 19 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • On the other hand, Sivachar is indeed a subcaste - see [1], and just possibly the aforementioned source (which is rather confusing). - Sitush (talk) 09:36, 19 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Implausible redirect. Formerly a surname SIA with only one notable entry (the other entry was redlinked.) jd22292 (Jalen D. Folf) (talk • contribs) 04:46, 18 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete There's a redirect for Travis Conneeley who is a composer nominated for an award on that list. It's not terribly useful otherwise. Leaving it to the general search would be helpful. AngusWOOF (barksniff) 02:35, 19 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete per above. All the existing potential targets are less helpful than just showing search results. 59.149.124.29 (talk) 03:29, 25 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia is not Answers.com or WikiAnswers. 108.210.216.207 (talk) 02:32, 18 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete - We've had discussions like these before many times, I believe, and these are almost always deleted. There's a gigantic can of worms that can be opened up otherwise. It's poor practice to format things like this. CoffeeWithMarkets (talk) 04:37, 18 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete for its question format. AngusWOOF (barksniff) 02:35, 19 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Either delete or redirect to Monty White, who wrote the book named How Old Is the Earth? However, the "Monty White" article is tagged for notability issues, so I wonder whether it's worth redirecting the pages to that article. George Ho (talk) 22:01, 20 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. Articlespace is not a place for question-and-answer format. - The Bushranger One ping only 10:38, 21 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep - if readers want to know "how old is the earth?" they will find the best scientific estimate of a factual answer in the first sentence of the target: "The age of the Earth is approximately 4.54 ± 0.05 billion years (4.54 × 109 years ± 1%)." One might argue that such a reader is interested in the age of the Earth as supposed by various religious origin myths, but the target deals with that possibility in a hatnote.
