We need to discuss what to do with these redirects. Now they all have different targets. Is it OK, or should we have a common policy for them? I suggest to redirect to articles about the countries themselves, with the exception of New Zealand, since the Realm of New Zealand also includes two associated states except for New Zealand itself. I did already the same with all 16 Commonwealth realms. But I don't know if this is the best solution? I want to listen to the opinions of more experienced colleagues. Somerby ( talk) 15:38, 4 October 2021 (UTC) reply

• Hmm. I think you have the right idea. I'm tempted by the "Monarchy of" articles, just because they're more specific, but ultimately, a kingdom is a place, and a monarchy is an institution. So the right targets are the geographic areas corresponding to the realms, which in all cases but one are coterminous with the country. -- BDD ( talk) 21:26, 4 October 2021 (UTC) reply
• Somerby, you have only just created Kingdom of New Zealand. I'm curious – why did you create it? Nurg ( talk) 10:38, 5 October 2021 (UTC) reply

  Nurg, this term is used in sources, where it denote the geographic area corresponding to the Realm of New Zealand. Thus I redirected it to the Realm of New Zealand. if you think that the target should be different, then let us discuss your proposal. Strictly speaking, the state is headed by a female, but there is no such word Queendom -- Somerby ( talk) 11:09, 5 October 2021 (UTC) reply

  Thanks Somerby. Could you give references to two of those sources please. Nurg ( talk) 20:40, 5 October 2021 (UTC) reply

  No references have been provided for "Kingdom of New Zealand" so I am unable to verify what they might be referring to. In fact, I am left with the suspicion that "Kingdom of New Zealand" is just a name made up on Wikipedia. In that case such a redirect is not needed. If it is kept, it might as well redirect to Realm of New Zealand, in the absence of any information about the name. Nurg ( talk) 07:34, 9 October 2021 (UTC) reply

  There is a United Kingdom of New Zealand group, I'm not sure exactly what it is but it isn't anything recognised by the rest of the world. The sentence "The Kingdom of New Zealand also includes the self-governing autonomous states of the Cook Islands and Niue, and Tokelau." appears on many of the different websites operated by flagtheory.com which seems to be a private organisation dealing with small businesses wanting to do business internationally. Other than that I can't find any other uses of the term. Thryduulf ( talk) 10:42, 10 October 2021 (UTC) reply

  Thanks Thryduulf. We can ignore the UK of NZ one, as that is not the redirect term. I hadn't found the flagtheory.com use in my own searches so thanks for that one. They appear to be mistakenly using "Kingdom of New Zealand" when they mean "Realm of New Zealand", so that redirect is ok as it is. Nurg ( talk) 02:27, 12 October 2021 (UTC) reply

• WP:TRAINWRECK; each one of these is different and there's no point in discussing them together. The only really common element is that these are colonies of the British Empire which acquired responsible self-government in the 19th century while maintaining allegiance to the British Crown, but Britain used the term Dominion to purposefully avoid calling them Kingdoms. But since we're already here:
  • Keep Kingdom of Canada, and refine section per 85.67. That section best explains the origin and use of the term, and why it didn't become the name of the country. A see-also could be made there to Monarchy of Canada for interested readers but there really isn't a lot there on the "Kingdom of Canada" name.
  • Keep Kingdom of Australia. There is a Name of Australia article but the word "Kingdom" appears there only once, and as you would expect that instance is immediately preceded by "United"; that is, there is no information there and no apparently prominent uses of the term "Kingdom of Australia", except I did come across an anti-government and anti-vaccine Kingdom of Australia group on Facebook.
  • Neutral on Kingdom of New Zealand. This appears to be a situation like the Kingdom of Denmark redirects that came up recently, where the sovereign country consisting of the North and South islands is called "New Zealand", but there are related partially-self-governing territories which rely on the Monarchy of New Zealand for defense and foreign relations, as described in the Realm article. But I find that confusing and don't really want to give an opinion. Ivanvector's squirrel ( ^trees/ _nuts) 15:27, 14 October 2021 (UTC) reply

It was a toss-up between that and Māori culture. I am happy to support retargeting them to Māori culture. I do think that is a better target than Tikanga Māori or Mātauranga Māori, as "Māori culture" encompasses those and more. Nurg ( talk) 02:30, 29 October 2021 (UTC) reply

There are some other topics actually called "triangle strategy" [1] but I don't think we have coverage of those.

• Alamo → Battle of the Alamo  ( talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure:  keep/ retarget/ delete ] 

Retarget to Alamo (disambiguation). One could make a very reasonable case for either Battle of the Alamo or Alamo Mission in San Antonio being the primary topic of the title (personally I favor the later) however, as both have near equal claim to the title of WP:PRIMARYTOPIC, it would be best if the Alamo redirect simply pointed to the disambiguation page. BSMRD ( talk) 02:50, 27 October 2021 (UTC) reply

• Battle of the Alamo get 6 times the pageviews of Alamo Mission in San Antonio. And since the Alamo building is noteworthy primarily (not entirely) for the battle, and the battle article has a prominent hatnote pointing toward the building, I'm inclined to leave it as a primary redirect. That way the probable majority of the 48 readers per day using the redirect will more likely wind up at the article they're looking for. Station1 ( talk) 15:39, 27 October 2021 (UTC) reply
• Comment To propose that there is no primary topic for Alamo, a requested move discussion is required to move Alamo (disambiguation) to Alamo.

No worries! It should probably be left open for the moment as someone has already commented, and there still could be discussion about whether the battle or the mission is the best primary topic. Someone not involved might nevertheless come along and do a procedural close. In the meantime, feel free to start an RM discussion at Talk:Alamo (disambiguation), probably a good idea to link to this discussion. Mdewman6 ( talk) 20:13, 27 October 2021 (UTC) reply

• Laura Brehm → Losing You (Ephixa and Laura Brehm song)  ( talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure:  keep/ retarget/ delete ] 

I don't think there's any good possible redirect target for Laura Brehm, so this redirect should be deleted. She's worked on multiple songs/albums. No redirect target we have provides much useful information about her that a reader would be looking for, and the current target is somewhat WP:ASTONISHing.

• Keep as this is the only song with an article that this artist has worked on. When a more notable, more successful song that Brehm contributed to releases, we can retarget there. Jalen Folf (talk) 23:09, 19 October 2021 (UTC) reply
  • I'm not suggesting retargeting to any song. Any user searching for Laura Brehm would not find the information they'd like to know on Losing You (Ephixa and Laura Brehm song). Could for example also redirect to TheFatRat who she's worked on multiple songs with - but that wouldn't be a good idea either, because that doesn't provide much useful info on her.

• Latin civilisation → Western culture  ( talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure:  keep/ retarget/ delete ] 

Not mentioned at the target, doesn't unambiguously refer to it; a GScholar search suggests that this term often alternatively refers to the Roman Empire, the sphere of influence of the Roman Catholic Church, and/or the southwestern European region of Romance-language speaking countries and their colonies. In the absence of a clear target, deletion seems like it may be the best option. _signed, Rosguill ^talk 16:03, 10 October 2021 (UTC) reply

I personally made the page in reference to the work of the polish historian Feliks Koneczny, who used the term in his theory of civilisations, with the latin civilisation being characterised through its legal, ethical and cultural heritage gained from the Roman Empire and the Catholic Church (note: Koneczny did not view civilisation as inherently tied to religion, he did view it as being fundamentally tied to it. He viewed England as a country that kept much of its former Catholic heritage even when it became protestant.). His usage of the term aligns with what one would call the 'Western civilisation', with it being commonly synonymous in Poland. It also has a Polish Wikipedia page. Nonetheless I see that I failed to consider other usages of the term, as such I would propose to convert the redirect into a disambiguation page. Kanclerz K-Tech ( talk) 22:10, 10 October 2021 (UTC) : reply

I'm liking the idea of a disambiguation page - it very clearly is an ambiguous term with multiple meanings. A disambiguation page would mean also that the reader would get some context about why they should be going to the western culture article (assuming that is where they wanted to go), even if nothing is added to that article. -- Xurizuri ( talk) 09:32, 15 October 2021 (UTC) reply

I agree that there is no obvious target (unlike, say, Arabic civilisation, which would clearly go to Arab world). Western culture would be defensible, as would be Legacy of the Roman Empire (probably the closest to the sense Kanclerz describes). As would Roman Empire/ Ancient Rome. Yeah, a most logical solution would be to have short disambig page with a longer than average write-up to explain the concept, and then links to the plausible targets.
