• Radio-Canada → Canadian Broadcasting Corporation  (talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ] 

Disambiguate. Radio-Canada can mean a few things, none of them being its English equivalent (though I guess it can be with enough of a stretch). LilianaUwU ^{(talk / contributions)} 23:00, 30 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

• Question for LilianaUwU: What other things could Radio-Canada mean? voorts (talk/contributions) 01:19, 1 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  Ici Radio-Canada Télé, Ici Radio-Canada Première (those two being the main ones) and Radio Canada International, as well as their headquarters at Maison de Radio-Canada. LilianaUwU ^{(talk / contributions)} 01:22, 1 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

• Disambiguate. From the history, I see that I created this redirect more than 20 years ago (!), and at the time Wikipedia was only a few years old and its content was less extensive than today. I think there weren't any articles about Radio-Canada at the time, so this was probably just a placeholder redirect which I forgot about long ago. Thanks for taking the initiative to fix this. -- P.T. Aufrette (talk) 11:59, 1 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep per WP:PTOPIC - Radio-Canada is the well-known-in-English French name for the subject covered at Canadian Broadcasting Corporation (branded "CBC/Radio-Canada" per the first sentence). Hatnotes are provided to link to articles covering specific divisions of Radio-Canada. Ivanvector (^Talk/_Edits) 18:20, 1 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep. Hitting the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation aka Société Radio-Canada aka CBC/Radio-Canada when searching Radio-Canada is unsurprising. Reiterating Ivanvector above: the hatnotes are good navigational aides and if those fail the same articles are linked in the lede. ― Synpath 23:13, 2 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep Radio-Canada is unambiguously a reference to the French version of the CBC. Ici Radio-Canada Première is like CBC Radio One. The existence of those does not invalidate the primary topics. Headbomb {t · c · p · b} 02:56, 5 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was no consensus. There was no additional participation despite two relists. However, retargeting to Paramount International Networks#Production company as a suggested target. Jay 💬 07:52, 7 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

• Paramount Television International Studios → TIS Productions  (talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ] 

Per the outcome at Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion/Log/2024 March 3#Paramount Television International Studios, where incoming links were the hurdle straight after a page move, I've given it enough time for the actual targets and/or rdr targets to be sorted out. The reason or rationale is the same as its/the original listing. Intrisit (talk) 06:12, 11 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

• Retarget to Paramount International Networks#Production company where the relevant context/history of this company is detailed. It also points to TIS Productions at that target, though the two do not appear to be directly linked anymore and this company is not mentioned at the original target.

• ELLIS, DICK → Dick Ellis  (talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ] 

No affinity for ALL CAPS. * Pppery * _{it has begun...} 21:53, 19 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep. It's common for encyclopedias and other reference works to begin an entry with the title in all caps. This page on another wiki cites Ellis' article in the Dictionary of British Intelligence, and the article apparently uses ELLIS, DICK rather than Ellis, Dick or Dick Ellis. Maybe you'll try this version if you've not used Wikipedia much (or if it's been a while), or you may copy/paste it into Wikipedia from somewhere else that uses the all-caps. Nyttend (talk) 12:46, 20 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
• Comment I created this in response to this request: Wikipedia:Administrators'_noticeboard/Archive234#Redirect_request. I have no strong view re whether or not it should be kept. WaggersTALK 10:31, 22 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
• Weak keep as WP:CHEAP and not sufficiently "weird" to qualify for WP:RCAPS in my opinion. Pinging User:Tom Pippens (who made the request linked above) as a courtesy, but they have not edited since 2012, so I doubt they care at this point. --NYKevin 22:24, 22 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete as per WP:RCAPS. While I can see Nyttend's argument that Ellis, Dick should redirect to Dick Ellis, I'd like to point out that this website's search functionality is CaSe InSeNsItIvE, save for when two titles are only different by capitalization (as per WP:DIFFCAPS). We don't need to keep allcaps redirects; if one feels that a "last name before first name" redirect would be helpful, it would be more helpful with some lowercase letters. 𝔏𝔲𝔫𝔞𝔪𝔞𝔫𝔫🌙🌙🌙 𝔗𝔥𝔢 𝔐𝔬𝔬𝔬𝔬𝔬𝔫𝔦𝔢𝔰𝔱 (talk) 19:21, 23 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Not everyone uses the search page to find articles. Plausible capitalisations are useful for other reasons (e.g. someone typing or copy/pasting text into the URL bar, like I do), so we have a category for them with tens of thousands of entries. Nyttend (talk) 21:36, 23 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep per WP:CHEAP, as an {{avoided double redirect}} of (newly created) Ellis, Dick. Seems like a harmless {{R from alternative capitalization}} - not everyone uses the search bar; but even if everyone did, I'm not convinced that this redirect is problematic/would warrant deletion. All the best, ‍—‍a smart kitten_[meow] 19:42, 30 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete per RCAPS. Not convinced there is any affinity for having all caps more than any other name, which wouldn't have rcaps in the first place, DICK ELLIS doesn't and shouldn't exist, etc. Utopes _{(talk / cont)} 19:36, 2 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was no consensus. No participation despite two relists. However, retargeting to Euclidean space#Technical definition as a suggested target. Jay 💬 08:17, 7 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

• Finite dimensional Hilbert spaces → Category of finite-dimensional Hilbert spaces  (talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ] 
• Finite dimensional hilbert spaces → Category of finite-dimensional Hilbert spaces  (talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ] 

The current target may be too technical for the search term. Alternatives could be Hilbert space or Euclidean space (or Euclidean space#Technical definition). Also note that the singular Finite dimensional Hilbert space, or the more correct hyphenations Finite-dimensional Hilbert spaces/Finite-dimensional Hilbert space do not currently exist. 1234qwer1234qwer4 18:03, 13 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete in favour of search results. While the target article does have a cited one-line mention of a Royal Tart Toter, redirecting to this section alone buries the other cited one-line mentions in Wikipeida. ― Synpath 23:43, 2 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

• Easing function → Inbetweening#Digital animation  (talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ] 

Without a mention of "easing", making this already not a great target, there's also no mention of a "function" at the target either. While the page admittedly talks about an "ease-in" and an "ease-out", this is not necessarily an "easing function" and several other topics deal with "easing" as well. Utopes _{(talk / cont)} 00:53, 14 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Easing function is a common term in computer graphics, see [1] [2]. Maybe there's a better redirect target, or a new article is warranted, but this was the best I could find. 11wx (talk) 01:03, 14 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

• Lev Trotskij → Leon Trotsky  (talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ] 

Delete per WP:RFD#D8. This appears to be the spelling of Trotsky's name in various North Germanic languages and this spelling isn't used in the article. voorts (talk/contributions) 04:10, 14 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete - appears to be the spelling of his name in Danish and Norwegian, neither of which are particularly relevant. Ivanvector (^Talk/_Edits) 18:52, 15 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep - the target does mention the transliteration in the Notes. There is also Leo Trotskij from 2005. Jay 💬 07:53, 21 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  I hadn't noticed that before, but it appears to just be this uncited bit here: "also transliterated Lyev, Trotski, Trotskij, Trockij and Trotzky." I've seen no evidence that Trotskij is a valid English transliteration, rather than the transliteration into the languages that have been identified here. voorts (talk/contributions) 17:41, 21 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  I have added a {{cn}} but you are free to remove the mention. Jay 💬 04:19, 22 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

• Weak keep the page was at that title for more than a decade, and retaining the redirect is a harmless convenience for those who have been editing the area, while deletion brings no benefit. 2601:5CC:8300:A7F0:BCC1:74D:C5C8:CF76 (talk) 16:50, 30 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

• Enbian → Non-binary gender  (talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ] 

Retarget to wikt:enbian, where it's defined. --MikutoH ^talk! 00:44, 30 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

• Retarget to sapphism, where it is defined on Wikipedia rather than needing an XNR. - Presidentman talk · contribs (Talkback) 15:23, 30 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  I'm not sure if targeting a redirect from a term for non-binary people to an article about an umbrella term for any woman attracted to women or in relationship with another woman is the best solution here. In addition, enbian is only mentioned at that article once in passing, as an example of an equivalent term[] for [a] relationship[]...involving at least one non-binary person. All the best, ‍—‍a smart kitten_[meow] 17:49, 30 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  At the moment, it's the only place where the term is used on Wikipedia. The better solution is probably to add a mention either at the current target or another article, as Ivanvector suggests below. Presidentman talk · contribs (Talkback) 19:26, 30 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  True - I suppose I was more implying that my opinion is probably that, if no other mentions exist, it would be better for it to be deleted per WP:REDLINK than pointed at the mention in sapphism. Apologies if I could have worded my previous comment better. All the best, ‍—‍a smart kitten_[meow] 20:12, 30 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

• Comment - it would be preferable to point this term at relevant encyclopedic content, but it's hard to pin down. Sexual identity has a list of identities but doesn't include one that quite fits this description. At Attraction to transgender people#Non-binary people there's a short blurb, and skoliosexual and ceterosexuality both target that section, but the links from there are either to Wiktionary or to other terms that kind of fit - they encompass this sexual identity but don't describe it specifically. We must be able to actually write something about this topic somewhere. Ivanvector (^Talk/_Edits) 18:39, 30 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  @A smart kitten, Ivanvector, and Presidentman: I mentioned it on LGBT slang § Terms related to transgender and non-binary people. Then I think it's the best target. But I wouldn't be opposed to Attraction to transgender people#Non-binary people, as suggested by Ivan, but only if it was mentioned there too. --MikutoH ^talk! 19:43, 4 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  Looks good to me, I support that target. Probably also should be tagged {{R with possibilities}} along with skoliosexual and ceterosexuality. Ivanvector (^Talk/_Edits) 22:24, 4 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  I support retargeting there also. Thanks for adding it to that article, MikutoH :) ‍—‍a smart kitten_[meow] 22:28, 5 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
