A redlink is more useful than a
WP:SELFRED that's only used on the target page (and on Lee's article, which has a separate link to the same section). ―

Misleading. The article predominantly covers the game in question, not its creator.

- Keep. Not a valid reason for deletion. If the creator is only known for his work, then redirecting his name to the work is the right thing to do per
WP:BIO1E. Regards

- Keep - The creator is mentioned in the article. Perhaps it can be expanded to discuss said person more. At any rate, deletion seems like the wrong call to me.

Misleading. The redirect is not the subject matter of its target. It does receive some brief coverage in the
List of unofficial Sonic media page, which could serve as a suitable retarget.

Misleading, as both terms are not mentioned in their respective target articles. They do share similarities in that both are traditional Kirby games for home gaming consoles, with Kirby 64 following 1997's Kirby's Dream Land 3, but nothing in the articles indicates that these were meant to be direct sequels.

Veverve (

- Delete per nom, the redirects don't even make sense. 64 doesn't even majorly take place in Dreamland, and there had been many games inbetween the release of 64 and Return. If anything, Return is a sequel to Kirby's Adventure, if you go by the European name. (Though, it also should not be called Kirtby's Adventure 2 either)

The original Gold Derby Awards article was
deleted in 2020 because they were deemed non-notable. However, this redirect was quickly created after the article's deletion. Since
MOS:FILM#Accolades states that (generally) awards should be mentioned if they have a corresponding article, this allows the awards to be mentioned elsewhere despite lack of notability. I think people searching for "Gold Derby Awards" would reasonably be led to
Gold Derby, so the redirect does not need to exist, in my opinion.
RunningTiger123 (

reply
- Keep. Corresponding page existed since 2016 in one for or another, so external pages linking to it is likely. Is a plausible search term and useful to have. The argument from
MOS:FILM#Accolades is incorrect since a redirect is not an article, so this page does already not qualify. If people add the awards to other articles despite that, the problem lies with those edits, not with the existence of the useful redirect. Regards
So
Why 09:42, 22 May 2022 (UTC)
reply
- Keep - The awards are discussed at length in the target, so of course this is a valid redirect. If there is some tangential issue perhaps the MOS could be clarified to say "(not including redirects)" or something like that.
A7V2 (
talk) 10:52, 22 May 2022 (UTC)
reply
- The target article discusses the awards at length, but it should probably be vastly trimmed; all of those sections are attributed to primary sources, so including such detailed analysis is probably undue.
RunningTiger123 (
talk) 15:15, 22 May 2022 (UTC)
reply
- As long as the target article discusses the awards at all, the redirect makes sense. And I don't see any reason why the target should not discuss the awards at all. Regards
So
Why 15:51, 22 May 2022 (UTC)
reply
- If it is undue or irrelevant (I'm not saying it is or isn't) then it should be removed, and then the redirect could be deleted. But given that it is discussed at the target, of course the redirect is suitable. Redirects are not content. They just lead to content.

This is a miscapitalization of a proper noun, and the redirect already exists at the proper capitalization at
Harvard Bus Tunnel. We don't need a redirect from a grammatical error when the same redirect without the grammatical error already exists. I attempted to CSD G6 this, but it appears there's some disagreement about whether or not this is noncontroversial (I personally think it is; deleting grammatical errors that serve no unique purpose shouldn't be controversial), but since it appears it is controversial, here we are.
Nick Boppel (

- Oppose – The assertion that it's a proper noun is not supported, and it's in use by numerous Wikipedia articles that mention the
Harvard bus tunnel. Deleting it would break all those links. And even when the capitalization of a redirect is wrong, we generally leave them to make linking attempts work.
Dicklyon (

reply
- Oppose: There is zero reason to delete this. Regardless of which capitalization is correct,
redirects are cheap. We have {{
R from other capitalisation}} specifically because redirects from capitalization variations are useful for avoiding accidental redlinks.

- Keep - no valid reason to delete. This is exactly the kind of thing that people would disagree about/not be sure about whether the "bus tunnel"/"Bus Tunnel" part is a proper noun, but generally incorrect capitalisation is not a reason to delete a redirect anyway.

Since the target list only includes
queen regnants and does not include
queen consorts and
queen dowagers, this redirect can be seen as misleading.
