Comment: Municipality of St Mary's: Not sure... this seems like a bit of a stretch for a redirect after viewing the context in the target article. I'll leave this aside until another there is another opinion on the matter..

I'm closing this as declined given the ambiguity and the doubts expressed about the suitability of the redirect. –

Declined. Dusaria → Dushara: The title you suggested seems unlikely. Could you provide a source showing that it is a commonly used alternate name?: The redirect you suggested does not appear to be highly used, and does not ever appear in the target article..

Declined. Judging by the article, the society has changed its name. This is a reason to move the page, not to create a redirect. I'll ask to have the page moved.

There has been controversy in the past: see the discussion for
Category:Evil at
Wikipedia:Deletion review/Log/2019 June 23. True, circumstances have changed somewhat (
Category:Good and evil did not exist at the time), but I'm not confident creating this category has consensus even now. I suggest bringing the proposal to a venue with broader participation, such as
WP:CFD. –

Declined: the article only has a bare mention of it and the topic appears likely notable, so it's best to leave the link red to encourage article creation (
WP:REDLINK). The absence of the redirect doesn't create inconvenience for readers: those who search for the phrase will see the target article at the top of the search results. –

Reason: George F. Beck is cited in the article for recognizing the importance of the site, for excavating it, and for lobbying to have the site preserved.
Not sure. The word "Brahmi" is a pretty late invention, and in the period when the script was in use no-one would have called it that. –

This looks like a good creation, since the target has an "i" in the last word (all caps WHEEIS), but you'd expect it to have an "l" (all caps WHEELS), which is what the proposed redirect has.

Reason: "Nadi" (नदी) means "river" in many Indian languages, such as Sanskrit, Hindi/Urdu, Marathi, and Pali, so "Sarasvati Nadi" (and variants thereof due to transliteration differences) is the name by which speakers of these languages may know the Saraswati River.

Reason: It's a common misspelling of the name. Also, the reason I'm asking at AFC/R is because the title is currently locked and salted, since the subject used to be deemed "not notable". However, now that the subject is notable and has a page at the correct spelling of
Jacob Sartorius, this redirect would be helpful.
Redirect created. Jacob Sartorious → Jacob Sartorius: Fair, "ius", "ios", and "ious" are frequent misspellings, and the topic receives significant incoming searches. Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia!

Reason: This is a common English title for the book.
Source (if applicable): This is stated in the wiki page (including the data of 4 published versions in the United States bearing this title), and even the image of the book on the wiki page is visibly titled "Dersu the Trapper", not "Dersu Uzala".

Operation Neptune Spear" redirects to "
