• Comment - the nominator is the only substantive author of the current target and moved it to its current title shortly after the article was created a couple of weeks ago so I'd say this qualifies for speedy deletion under WP:G7 or presumably WP:G6 (if it was created in error).

More Eubot trash from 2008 - the bot noted the existence of Portinglês (version 2), which consists of old history, and decided that this was necessary. This isn't a logical search term, and what this was based on existed only for internal purposes, so this is useless. Hog Farm _Talk 19:23, 8 December 2022 (UTC) reply

Comment: I moved the edit history of Portinglês (version 2) to Portinglês to get the edit history away from that odd title, considering the content was a {{ R from merge}}.

• Compu-drama → Computer animation  ( talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure:  keep/ retarget/ delete ] 

Not mentioned in the target article, leaving the connection between the target article's subject and the redirect's subject unclear. However, this redirect is mentioned in some articles on Wikipedia, but none of these articles go to any extent to identify or defined the term of the redirect. Steel1943 ( talk) 09:02, 8 December 2022 (UTC) reply

• Retarget to Gold (short story). Seems to be a term from this specific Asimov story. The concept it refers to sounds like it is describing a computer animation, but the term doesn't seem to be in general use outside of the context of the story. I would retarget the term to the story article (where it is described) and maybe rework the body of articles that describe the plot of the story to include a link to the computer animation article at points where the term appears as a means of additional explanation. 193.37.240.37 ( talk) 11:54, 8 December 2022 (UTC) reply

Possibly also The Big Reveal: An Illustrated Manifesto of Drag., but that one is sufficiently specific to be unambiguous, though it should drop the period. Rusalkii ( talk) 06:51, 1 December 2022 (UTC) reply

@ Rusalkii, I realized that there was a period for The Big Reveal: An Illustrated Manifesto of Drag. The period is removed. If you think that The Big Reveal is a problem for searching, okay then.

• Spoiler Alert: The Hero Dies → Spoiler Alert (film)  ( talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure:  keep/ retarget/ delete ] 

Requesting deletion of the redirect since it is confusing for the film article's link to the book article to lead back to the film article. Per WP:REDLINK, there is substantial justification for having a standalone book article, and deleting the redirect to make visible a red link would help encourage creation of a book article. Erik ( talk |  contrib) ^{( ping me)} 03:09, 8 December 2022 (UTC) reply

• Weak keep. Notwithstanding the nominator's comment essentially stating that the book's article doesn't exist, the redirect seems to be the equivalent of a {{ R from working title}} since it is the title of the book. Steel1943 ( talk) 07:04, 8 December 2022 (UTC) reply

  If it's not going to be a breeze here, I'm just going to withdraw. I was hoping to make it a red link to encourage article creation and eliminate the roundabout setup that is happening here.

• Dominant language → Language dominance  ( talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure:  keep/ retarget/ delete ] 

I happened to come across this and was surprised... not the topic/redirect I expected at all... Dominant Language and Language dominance are two different things. While it can refer to imperialism, it is more often used as the dominant language in a person's mind or daily usage. I looked for a better target to redirect to, but could not find any; the topic does not seem to be given any attention. As it currently is, it doesn't make sense to keep it this way. 2600:8800:2C00:BC00:2DED:4919:9B94:F1AD ( talk) 09:27, 23 November 2022 (UTC) reply

• Keep The current target explains several definitions of a "dominant language". If there were an article on the topic you refer to then it could be added there, but deleting redirects because they are ambiguous with something that isn't even mentioned anywhere isn't done here. * Pppery * _{it has begun...} 19:23, 23 November 2022 (UTC) reply

• ​ It would be much better if Language dominance really did include a brief explanation of each of the three terms listed. But it does not. And it would make sense if the page also mentioned "dominant language" and what that means.-- Toddy1 (talk) 10:01, 24 November 2022 (UTC) reply

• From a quick browse, it appears that the terms "language dominance" and "dominant language" can refer either to an individual's psychological reality (which of the several languages the person speaks is the main one) or to a social fact (which language is the most widely spoken, or has higher prestige and institutional support). I can't see any treatment of either topic on Wikipedia (for the first one, there's minor mentions in Multilingualism and in First language, but neither is useful for readers who may be using this redirect). So I'd rather have both the redirect and the dab page deleted. – Uanfala ( talk) 15:16, 24 November 2022 (UTC) reply
