• Future North Shropshire by-election → 2021 North Shropshire by-election  (talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ] 

This is a completely absurd redirect, unless someone is planning on setting up a bot to swing by every election year and point it at a new page. jp×g 23:56, 7 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

• Agreed That was me not cleaning up after the date of the by-election was set changing it from future to happening in 2021. Apologies PoliceSheep99 (talk) 00:10, 8 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

• Requested move 28 November 2021 → Statues of Kamehameha I  (talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ] 

An RM which began on 28 November decided in favour of moving Kamehameha statues to Statues of Kamehameha I, but it was accidentally moved to this title (the title of the talk page section with the RM) instead. I then moved it from this title to the correct one, thus creating the redirect. There's no good reason for the redirect to continue to exist. Ham II (talk) 19:44, 7 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

• CatholicMom.com → Congregation of Holy Cross  (talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ] 

No mention of "CatholicMom.com" in the article it redirects to. I recommend deletion. Veverve (talk) 10:06, 7 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete seems to be an associate ministry to the target article that is focused on mothers. However, the redirect is useless if the target article doesn't discuss it.--Lenticel ^(talk) 04:36, 8 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

• Template:Ethiopian intervention in Somalia → Template:Somalia War (2006–2009)  (talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ] 

Remnant redirect from a 2007 name change. No longer used or referred to. Platonk (talk) 05:24, 7 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

• Template:Election ethiopia → Template:Politics of Ethiopia  (talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ] 

Unused redirect to a template that is being used. Actual template was renamed/moved in 2004 and this redirect remnant is now obsolete. Platonk (talk) 05:21, 7 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

• Template:Ethiopia 2013 African Cup of Nations Qualification → Template:Ethiopia 2013 African Cup of Nations qualification  (talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ] 

An unused redirect that points to an unused template. (8 years stale) Platonk (talk) 05:15, 7 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was restore article and send to AfD – see Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Keibu Keioiba (non-admin closure) – Uanfala (talk) 22:17, 25 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

• Keibu Keioiba → Meitei folklore  (talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ] 
• Keibu keioiba → Meitei folklore  (talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ] 

Requesting deletion; this mythical creature is not mentioned in the redirect. —AFreshStart (talk) 03:45, 30 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

• Comment merged nominations for Keibu Keioiba and Keibu keioiba (same nominator, similar rationale, no comments yet). Note that the title-case version used to be an article: Special:Permalink/1007235227. 61.239.39.90 (talk) 09:13, 30 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete to encourage article creation. Based on the English sources that I found, it seems to be a tiger headed demon that is found in Indian folklore. I think editors that can understand the non-English sources may be able to draft a viable article. Simple wikipedia has an article here--Lenticel ^(talk) 01:18, 3 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
Relisting comment: There are 50+ revisions from 2017 in the history. Can that be a better substitute than the Simple Wikipedia article?
Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Jay (talk) 04:14, 7 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

• Send to AfD - Seems to be a case of WP:BLAR. Maybe better restore the article and send it to AfD instead. --Lenticel ^(talk) 01:36, 9 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
• Restore Keibu Keioiba and send to AfD per Lenticel. Retarget Keibu keioiba to Keibu Keioiba.--Aervanath (talk) 21:32, 19 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was retarget to Alpha and beta male (slang)#Related terms and add the term to the target article. Aervanath (talk) 21:13, 19 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

• Sigma male → Loner  (talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ] 

Probably should redirect to Alpha and beta male (slang). However, page does not mention particular term. There are various media talking about the term so it possibly could be added. —SpanishSnake (talk | contribs) 19:38, 29 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

• I'd support adding a mention at Alpha and beta male (slang)#Related terms. Rubbish computer Ping me or leave a message on my talk page 20:08, 29 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
• Retarget to Alpha and beta male (slang)#Related terms per nom and Rubbish computer (after adding term to article). Targeting to loner does not fit with WP:RCOM, but I would say that the target provided by nom is a suitable retarget. snood1205^{(Say Hi! (talk))} 22:37, 29 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
Relisting comment: There is support for adding a mention at the proposed target, and I have notified the talk page there.

• Comment I attempted to add mention of 'Sigma male' at the alpha/beta male article prior to this RfD but it was removed. Maybe with proper sourcing and consensus generated here it might stick. A 'sigma male' is a 'lone wolf' variant of an 'alpha male' in this mythos of Greek-lettered males. (JayPlaysStuff | talk to me | What I've been up to) 23:02, 7 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was keep. As a relisted RfD, this can be closed as soon as consensus is clear, which I think it is. (non-admin closure) -- Tamzin^{[cetacean needed]} (she/they) 04:45, 11 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

• Internet humor/Honor System Virus → Virus hoax  (talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

• Internet humor/Lightbulb jokes → Lightbulb joke  (talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

• Internet humor/You have two cows → You have two cows  (talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ] 

Who would type in "Internet humor/" just to look for any of these particular articles? – MrPersonHumanGuy (talk) 23:25, 29 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

• Comment these three redirects date to the time before categories on Wikipedia, when subpages were still allowed in articlespace, to organize topics. -- 65.92.246.43 (talk) 02:06, 30 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep per WP:RFD#KEEP, item four, which recommends keeping subpages "that have existed for a significant length of time." These certainly meet that condition. - Eureka Lott 10:31, 1 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

• It says they should be left alone in case other pages link to them. 22 pages link to /Honor System Virus while 4 pages link to /Lightbulb jokes and /You have two cows each, and none of them are articles, though most of the pages are either WikiProject or userspace pages. I also forgot to include /Long lightbulb jokes, which is only linked to by two pages involving an old deletion discussion for Jokebook:Lightbulb:Occupations. – MrPersonHumanGuy (talk) 13:53, 1 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

• More specifically, it says that they "should be left alone in case there are any existing links on external pages pointing to them" (emphasis mine). We can account for the internal links, but have no control over other sites. - Eureka Lott 14:40, 1 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep, as WP:RFD#KEEP specifically mentions "Links that have existed for a significant length of time, including CamelCase links and old subpage links, should be left alone in case there are any existing links on external pages pointing to them". It seems fairly simple to me. jp×g 02:48, 9 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
