XNR, Unlikely to be of any use to casual readers of WP.
#prodraxisconnect 22:44, 26 August 2023 (UTC)reply
Weak keep not really an RfD regular, but my standard for redirects is usually is it harming anything by existing. I can't really see any active harm here, even if cross namespace, and I see some good. Averages around 10 page views a month, so apparently some people are using it. If it can help someone who might not yet be familiar with how to navigate our namespace prefixes, I consider that a positive so I'm fine with keeping it. I also don't really care that much, hence the "weak", but I don't really see all that much reason to delete either.

Keep – XNR that sees a
decent bit of use. Nobody searching "Extended Confirmed Protection" is going to be searching for anything outside Wikipedia, so it's not going to impact casual readers. The capitalization and lack of hyphenation is a bit awkward, but that's not enough to change my mind. (Also,
Extended confirmed protected should probably be bundled.) Skarmory(talk •contribs) 12:33, 28 August 2023 (UTC)reply
Retarget to
Wikipedia#Restrictions, the article section which discusses Wikipedia's protection levels. Article-space redirects should always target relevant article content if it exists.

Keep per Skarmory. Only possible usage really is Wikipedians mislinking in a discussion or forgetting to type in "WP:".

Weak delete There's isn't really enough substance at
Wikipedia#Restrictions to warrant a redirect there, and the Wikipedians mislinking in a discussion or forgetting to type in "WP:". surely would immediately realize they had done so when the link is red or they end up in mainspace.

These are really hard to justify when the more general terms
Extended Confirmed and

Another ambiguous emoji. Redirects to "laughter" but looks more like shock to me.
Emojipedia suggests a variety of meanings. Best to delete.

Keep or redirect. Personal subjective "Looks like x to me" argument. Every emoji is a valid and likely search term which should not be deleted. If the current target isn't good enough, fix it. Worse case, redirect it to the emoji block it belongs to.

QuicoleJR said, There is no clear target for this emoji. That is the reason for deletion. It is vague.

Essays are irrelevant. I could just as much write one to say the opposite and it will hold just as much weight. Also, how is
Supplemental Symbols and Pictographs not a valid target? In most (or all?) of your emoji deletion nominations you haven't even spent the minimum effort to research the emoji before sending it here. RfD is not a replacement for editorial work.
Gonnym (
talk) 08:40, 28 August 2023 (UTC)reply
No, it wouldn't have as much weight, because, as I clearly noted, it represents the existing precedent on the matter; the rough consensus. I suggest you understand the context rather than dismiss it out of hand.

Retarget to
Supplemental Symbols and Pictographs or delete – certainly an ambiguous emoji; is someone trying to cover up laughter? Embarrassed by what they said? Shocked by something? Given that it's ambiguous, the best options are retargeting to the unicode block or deletion. I don't have a strong preference, given there's not much relevant for this emoji at the unicode block, though in the future there may be history entries relevant to it. (The official name for the character in unicode is SMILING FACE WITH SMILING EYES AND HAND COVERING MOUTH, by the way.) Skarmory(talk •contribs) 05:50, 28 August 2023 (UTC)reply
Retarget to
Supplemental Symbols and Pictographs per Skarmory. I've always thought this one was ambiguous with embarassment or boredom; better to direct to an article about the glyph than about one of the concepts it might symbolize.

Keep. To my understanding, the emoji in question (being 🤭) refers to unambiguous giggling/laughter ever since Unicode 14.0. Before this, this emoji still appeared to be laughing on all devices, with the exception of Apple users, who had an emoji that looked closer to this: 🫢, which is the "shocked" version. A couple years ago though, a new emoji codepoint was created with the purpose of distinguishing the two. The current picture of the emoji has none of the ambiguities described, as the smiling eyes make it hard to argue on the side of shock. The actual surprised-hand-over-mouth emoji had an RfD not too long ago as well, which was closed as keep; as such:
WP:Redirects for discussion/Log/2022 June 11#🫢. Utopes(talk / cont) 08:10, 3 September 2023 (UTC)reply
You may want to update your phone it seems, the same character looks like laughter on mine.

I'm on web (old Mac, Brave), and it's the old version for me too. Skarmory(talk •contribs) 06:12, 5 September 2023 (UTC)reply
Keep per Utopes (and
see also this Tweet by Emojipedia). At least for me, this symbol clearly represents giggling (perhaps even from embarrassment??). The emote is only particularly ambiguous when it is used on Twitter or Discord (
they use the same emoji), wherein this emote is not blushing and identical to 🫢, only with shut eyes; but elsewhere, it is more obviously giggling. Telegram, Google Messenger and Teams go even further by animating it as laughing, avoiding this ambiguity all together. ツLunaEatsTuna(

Yeah, it was discussed before, and someone re-added the content despite the fact that the term is not discussed in any reliable sources. And you've done the same, so I just reverted your edit. Being new to the wiki or having a low edit count does not make one's edits invalid. If you can find a reliable source that discusses the term, feel free to re-add it. I've done a thorough search myself though and found none. ––

In that case, you can remove the redirect. My opinion on this redirect remains the same. Keep it as long as the term is on the page, in which it isn't

Weak keep: I think it’s fair to keep the redirect, pointed at the slang it originates from. Without an article mention I probably wouldn’t have created it myself, but now it’s here it might as well stay - the base slang is mentioned even if the full term isn’t. Per
Edward-Woodrow’s comment in the last RfD.

See criteria 8 of
WP:RFD#DELETE. If the redirect is a novel or very obscure term that is not mentioned in the target, it is unlikely to be useful. Redirects are cheap, but they're not cheap enough to point somewhere that doesn't even mention the term. ––
FormalDude(talk) 20:13, 27 August 2023 (UTC)reply
@
FormalDude I wouldn’t go as far to say that this is a novel or very obscure synonym…that is not mentioned in the target. The base of the slang term is mentioned, and I wouldn’t personally call say this redirect goes to the level of a novel or obscure piece of derivative slang. However, I appreciate that reasonable minds may differ on this point.
A smart kitten (
talk) 10:02, 2 September 2023 (UTC)reply
The fact that there's literally zero coverage of this term in reliable sources means it is novel and obscure. Minds that understand the definitions of novel and obscure will not differ on this. ––

Super Dromaeosaurus the term is
in use (Urban Dictionary is not an RS but can at least be used to evidence the existence of a phrase), and we have a section of a list that describes the base slang term from which the phrase originates.
A smart kitten (
talk) 09:57, 2 September 2023 (UTC)reply
Existence of the phrase means nothing, someone could make up a word in a tweet and it would exist. That the base term is included is also not a reason to keep this. It's really simple: "Adolf Rizzler" has absolutely no coverage in reliable sources, is not included in the article, and therefore it should not exist as a redirect. ––

Procedural comment: Given that (from what I can see) not much has changed since the last time this was listed as RfD (though I’m happy to be proven wrong on that regard), are the comments on the previous RfD to be given weight when evaluating consensus?
A smart kitten (
talk) 08:02, 2 September 2023 (UTC)reply
At the last RfD, there was no opposition to the re-addition of the mention, either at the target or at the RfD, and which is why the outcome was to keep. This time, the re-addition has been reverted and there has been opposition to the re-addition at this RfD. I would support the delete votes unless the term has coverage in RS.
