Keep per J947, that's a perfectly plausible way to search for the target (I can see some users forgetting to capitalize the B), plus perhaps for that reason it's still getting a decent number of pageviews. Regards,

The target does not disambiguate "Prussian holocaust", and "holocaust" is not mentioned at
Prussia. Is there a target better than
The Holocaust?
Shhhnotsoloud (
talk) 18:34, 8 May 2022 (UTC)reply
It almost certainly is. A link provided in that deletion discussion leads to an earlier AFD where it was mentioned that the now deleted article was originally a redirect to
Evacuation of East Prussia. Checking that article confirms that the term holocaust isn’t mentioned so that would not be a valid target either. So based on the fact that it appears that the term isn’t mentioned the redirect should be deleted.--

I have no idea. Today I noticed a long list of redirects for discussion had appeared on my talk page. All of them dated 24th of January except for this one which is dated today. Something fishy is going on. I don't know what any of these items is about and I have no memory of contributing to them. I suspect my account may have been hacked. I don't think "Law of Nine" is a real thing (although there is a "
rule of nines" in Maths). I see no reason not to delete.

Well, granted that it may have been in some context which has since been deleted or some context which depends on other links but I seriously have doubts about those possibilities because a whole stack of similar redirects came up for deletion at the same time and I don't recognise any of them. In any case I think deletion is the tidiest thing to do. If there was any hacking it was probably a long time ago and the culpret will be long gone. As for me I do little at Wikipedia these days but correct the occasional typo or grammatical error.

Another batch of nonsense redirects similar to the ones 1234qwer1234qwer4 and I nominated yesterday. These are redirects from "Character sign + Code" to the articles on the numbers corresponding to the decimal equivalent of these symbol's ascii codes. Numerous issues here, including them being implausible search terms, them being highly ambiguous (there are a number of character encoding schemes and "code" isn't even unambiguous - &Code could mean
HTML character reference for example) and the targets being surprising and generally not helpful, these essentially target trivia about the numbers. I propose deleting them all.

Delete all: While the codepoint value of all of these are the values listed, it is not useful information and not really what redirects are to be used for. If one is trying to find the codepoint value of an individual character then there are articles for that such as the character page where it is listed in the infobox or article body (albeit in base 16). There is also
ASCII#Printable characters to fulfill this purpose. I also find these to be implausible search terms.

DePiep (

Spacing Modifier Letters seems to be most obvious; ˂ and ˃ by the same creator as this one have already been retargeted there. Either way, these have nothing to do with the current target (unlike U+02C6ˆMODIFIER LETTER CIRCUMFLEX ACCENT and U+02C7ˇCARON, which incidentally come just after the characters used in the nominated redirects), so they could as well be deleted if this target suggestion is deemed inappropriate too.

Keep per Veverve's last sentence. The target article is the meeting for 2021, it was simply postponed to 2022. Sources referring to this meeting from before the postponement will call it a 2021 event, and a redirect needs to be in place to guide searchers to the correct article. --

Damage over time already redirects to the same place. This is such a long and unnecessary disambiguation it is hard to believe anyone would search for it, it also does not correspond to the current accepted disambiguation (video games), therefore it should be deleted.

Keep. Per the article, it was to be held on November 13, 2021. It was planned to be a 2021 event, so the redirect is correct from that standpoint. References to the event from before it got postposed will refer to it as a 2021 event, so the redirect is in place to inform searchers that the event was postponed. This is helpful to prevent people from thinking there were two separate events, for example. --

This seems like an attempt to combine two different languages in one redirect. The redirect apparently refers to the French phrase "paste alimentari" which is in the article, but I'd think the translation of that world be something like "alimentary pasta", not paste. Since this is apparently a combination of languages, delete per
WP:FORRED.

There's no evidence that "papercuts" reference this topic at all. Similar redirects like Death by a Thousand Cuts already target this article, and the nominated redirect seems like such an unlikely synonyms phrase due do the lack of the notable "by a" phrase and the use of the word "papercuts".

I was originally going to suggest retargeting this to
