Nonsensical redirect name. Redirects to an article in which Android has only a passing mention and certainly mentions no such thing as Android porn.
uKER (

reply
- Pornography and fetishes are certainly related, though that article doesn't specifically mention pornography. And people with a fetish don't necessarily need actual pornography to indulge that fetish.
Balloon fetishists, for example. --

- Retarget per 67.70 and hatnote to
mobile porn. "Android porn" seems to have actually been a thing 5 years ago, as in there was a potential niche market for pornography sites and pornographic apps catering specifically to users of Android mobile devices. It doesn't seem to be any more, though, but it's possible someone will come here looking for info on it.

- One would wonder why the phrase "young adults" does not appear in the entire body of the text, because I couldn't tell that. (I'm technically a young adult myself - I turned 19 less than a month ago.) If we're being picky, the discussion didn't break the redirect - I have a policy of moving redirects from perceived implausible typos should I intend to RfD them because it helps keep attribution in the 'right place' should the implausible typo be deleted, and we have a bot for dealing with double redirects.--

- Dropping an accent is a highly common type of typo. Just look at languages with accents on the internet, and see how people spell accented words on internet forums. There's quite a lot of typos of this sort. As this is a transcription with accents, it would be even more likely as no one writes this in everyday speech as their primary form of communication, so even more likley to drop accents --

- I've explained above why I believe this is plausible, and stand by that - just because most people will enter both or no tone marks does not mean that all will. This does not get many page views but it looks to me like it is above the level of just bot visits, and so deletion will harm the encyclopaedia by making it harder for people to find the content they are looking for (seeing search results is not guaranteed, some methods of navigation will result in an invitation to start the page or just a note that there is nothing and would you like to search?). As deletion will harm the project while bringing no benefits, this is a clear keep.
WP:WAX arguments are irrelevant.
Thryduulf (
talk) 23:19, 7 September 2014 (UTC)

- Keep per Thry. It is not just a case of being an unfamiliar diacritic, but English people might know it but not be able to find it easily on their keyboard; this is why we have
{{
R from title without diacritics}}
and so on, and it's standard to create those Rs when one creates an article with diacritical marks in it. I have to switch between a couple of keyboard layouts, neither of which has a
cedillafor example, so although I know better I just bung in the C without the cedilla. That is not stupidity; that is expedience.

- Delete. Redirects from typos are no longer appropriate because the Wikipedia search function does a better job. These redirects disable the default search function behaviour and can provide misleading text and hover text. Stop embedding misinformation, leave it to the search engine. --
SmokeyJoe (

- The Wikipedia search function is only one of many ways that people use to locate Wikipedia content (and even then search suggestions only work for people with javascript enabled) - bookmarks, links (internal and external), external search engines, browser plugis, directly typing the URL, are just some of the others. If a page does not exist you are only sometimes shown search results (which are not guaranteed to be relevant) other times you are invited to search, invited to create the page, or just told that there isn't a page with this title. Redirects from typos are still very much needed.
Thryduulf (
talk) 07:07, 22 September 2014 (UTC)
reply
- But in my testing, a logged out Wikipedia search (actually a "go") for "Táiwan" produces a single page, someone's manual best guess, that today is a pretty ugly page. If it weren't for the redirect existing, the default search would be the proper search, which gives a page full of useful links, automagically ranked in order of likelihood, as best determined continuously by the AI. I don't think javascript or pluggins are relevant to this. --
SmokeyJoe (
talk) 07:36, 22 September 2014 (UTC)
reply
- Javascript is not relevant to that method of searching, correct. However you are forgetting that that is not the only method of finding Wikipedia articles. Other methods include, but are not limited to: typing in the search box and selecting from the drop-down list of suggestions (requires javascript), directly entering the URI (e.g.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/like_this_one or en.wp.org/like_this_one ), using an external search engine (Google, Bing, etc, etc), using a browser search plugin (some are listed at
[1], there are others), scrolling through a list of article titles, following a link on an external website, following a link from another Wikipedia page, opening a previously bookmarked page and searching from the URL bar of your browser. Depending which method you use, if the title you are searching for does not exist you will either be taken to the search page (as you desire to be) and either shown search results or (as I just was shown a red error message saying "An error has occurred while searching: HTTP request timed out.", told "Wikipedia does not have an article with this exact name. Please search for Like this one in Wikipedia to check for alternative titles or spellings. " and invited to start the page directly or using the article wizard, or taken to the edit window to start creating a new article. If a search term has a single most likely term, then it should redirect to that page; if it has multiple equally likely targets it should either be a disambiguation page or a redirect to a disambiguation page at a different title.

- Javascript producing suggestions while I am typing, or just before I press enter with it having captured the cursor, and the javascript functionality significantly slowing my device response time are things I really don't like. Can javascript be disabled without breaking other things? I'm sure that excessive number of useless suggestions, such as produced by this redirect, do more annoyance than help. Why would someone typing perfectly accented but unusal forms want to see this mis-typed version suggested while they type? --
SmokeyJoe (
talk) 10:36, 12 October 2014 (UTC)
reply
- Javascript can be disabled, but as far as I am aware unless you are using third-party tools (like adblockers or noscript plugins) this is a binary operation with all javascript or all javascript off. It may be possible to add something to your custom js that disables the search suggestions, but if so I haven't a clue how to do it.
- It used to be that redirects tagged as "unprintworthy" (including misspellings) did not appear in the search suggestions list, but this functionality quietly disappeared some time ago (1-2 years I'd guess) and a request to re-enable it has been met with silence from what I remember. All printworthy titles, which include valid alternative spellings, should be displayed as suggestions though so people who are looking for those spellings are not mislead into thinking the article does not exist.
- Ultimately though we do not have the ability to discriminate between search methods and we must determine whether this is a useful redirect in either 0 or >0 environments. Extra search suggestions are an inconvenience to some users, but actually harmful for none, so the utility of this redirect for others is the important factor.
- If you want the ability to discriminate between search methods, you will need to raise a bug at bugzilla asking for it, ideally with at least an idea for how it could be implemented.

- Keep/Replace: This redirect was likely put there to catch misspellings of an article title already present. Simply deleting the redirect does not improve Wikipedia. If David Salzberg the filmmaker is notable enough, replace this redirect with an article about that person. Otherwise, leave the redirect until Salzberg can meet notability guidelines--

- Weak Keep the zero key is near the o-key, and I've made such typos before (but usually not twice in the same sentence). --

- Yeah, but with a capital Y? Wouldn't the typo be Y)?

- Keep - "typo" is not a synonym for plausible typo. Close proximity & natural language confusion mean people make this typo regularly.

Either retarget the first one to
India or the second one to
Rossiya, I don't know which would be better. I mean they are both the native name for a country and have their respective DAB's -

TheChampionMan1234, I still don't really know what you're asking here. Your phrasing suggests you only want one of these retargeted, but that doesn't make sense. --

Jong-il. If Kim Jong-il isn't
WP:PRIMARYTOPIC for "Jong-il", he shouldn't be for an alternative romanization either. --

No need to be disambiguated, it can refer to
Chung Il-kwon,
Jang Jung-il, etc, just like how we don't have a list at
John_(given_name), etc. -

Unused, and would typically be incorrect if it was used.

Unnecessarily sacrilegious for project space. Other redirects exist and are not hard to use.

- Keep as per
this, which currently isn't a policy but should be, if for no other reason than it supports me, and because I just created the redirect. It's been a long time since anybody posted a suitable red link to ANI that I could turn into a redirect and I just had to do it. I fully expected it to be speedily deleted by the time I got back. That's happened before to some of these.

- Delete Biased title, useless (cause it's so long), and if Jimbo really thinks he's God, then he's not really on-board with his own consensus-building concept.

- I'm pretty sure that Jimbo doesn't think he's a god. It came from
here. Anyway it isn't a problem as the redirect has now reverted to a red link.

The redirect page's name is problematic. It contains a redundant half-width space
