Delete per nom. As far as I can tell, this word was not in the target page even around the time of creation in 2015. Search results find no contemporary uses, but it seems that this was jargon that was relatively common until circa 2008, but has only been used sporadically since (
this edit by
Huldra in March 2021 is the latest use I've spotted) and from context "committing wikicide" seems to have meant "doing something that was (almost) guaranteed to result in you being blocked" (c.f.
Wikipedia:Suicide by admin). The deletion log of
m:Wikicide gives the content of that page as of 2005 as the slightly different "Any intentional act that damages the integrity of a Wiki page." (
m:Growing Wikimedia suggests there was nothing more to that page). For those interested in ancient history, there was apparently some content at this title that was deleted in 2003, the history of the discussion is now at
Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Wikicide (which appears to be the oldest surviving deletion discussion!) - I've not found the content, but it was described as a dictionary definition of jargon (maybe
Tim Starling knows where to find it?).

From the
meta deletion archive, the content when I moved it in 2003 was "Wikicide is the malicious destruction of wikipedia pages in pursuit of imposing some sort of absolute frame of reference one-sidedly seen as "neutral" point of view." This text was also quoted by Eloquence in his comment dated 04:47 30 Jun 2003. --

These should point at the same article.

retarget: I added an anchor so they can all now redirect to
locally connected space#locally path connected. This is where the concept is actually discussed. (But I didn't change any of the redirects, because the instructions say not to change their targets while the RFD is up.) —

Currently unnecessary redirect since only one person with that name has an article (and as the nationality is Australian, per
naming conventions for sports people, this page title would not be correct upon varieties of English).

Keep. Perfectly harmless {{
R from currently unnecessary disambiguation}}. If another footballer (of any flavour) becomes notable enough for an article in the future this can become/be retargetted to a disambiguation page at that time.

Is this really a necessary redirect? I have my doubts.

Comment: there's a kind of symmetry with Kick in the balls, though. On a more serious note, soft redirects to Wiktionary are not really harmful. We have
1,857 of them.
Place Clichy (

Keep. Redirs to Wiktionary are fine, especially when there is not and probably never will be an encyclopedic article at that title.
Ass kicking (which jokingly used to redirect to a pic of Chuck Norris) should get the same treatment.
Kick in the balls, by contrast, has a pretty plausible article here to redirect to. —

Other than
January 0 and
March 0, there aren't alternative "(next month) 0" names for the last day of the prior month.

Weak retarget to
List of non-standard dates#March 0, otherwise delete. In Excel-type spreadsheet date formulas, entering a date that is the 0th date of the month is equal to the last day of the preceding month; for example =DATE(YEAR(2023),MONTH(11),DAY(0)) returns the value representing October 31, 2023. The proposed target section comes closest to explaining this and could be expanded. January 0 seems to be the only one of these that has other unique uses.

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus. Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks,

Delete; rather unlikely and not particularly helpful for lack of an actual explanation anywhere.

Delete as both unhelpful and unlikely. —

I have listed a previous RfD to this discussion. At the
2009 RfD, July 0 was retargeted to January 0. It is unclear why
Steel1943 overwrote it with June 30, five years later. Jay 💬 06:01, 11 November 2023 (UTC)reply
@
Jay: Though the edit I performed presumably occurred almost 9 years ago, and I do not recall making it ... the rest of this discussion and the other redirects' targets (prior to their deletion) does not make it clear why I probably made the edit?
