I’m not sure why this redirect exists. It’s mentioned nowhere. 165.91.12.6 (talk) 01:08, 14 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
Relisting comment: Would someone be willing to draft a disambiguation for Burah? I agree that Burah has a lot of uses, but I'm unsure which uses are suitable for a disambiguation (eg: Burah Sara appears to be a WP:PTM and the Old Azeri language example seems too obscure).
Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, -- Tavix (talk) 23:52, 24 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
I've drafted Burah as a dab. Please review and add more entries where related. AngusWOOF (barksniff) 17:53, 29 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Misleading disambiguator; the target of this redirect (a song) was not performed by a band or musical artist named "Bright". Steel1943 (talk) 20:30, 24 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

It was used for a recent Netflix show release Bright (film). So maybe somewhat useful if it has plenty of traction as a single? AngusWOOF (barksniff) 13:43, 25 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Created as a result of move vandalism of Liv and Maddie by now blocked User:Jjk~mtwiki. Similar reasoning to delete this redirect as for Collectonian is Stupid (2011 TV series). MPFitz1968 (talk) 19:02, 24 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was delete all. ansh666 20:04, 31 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Unlikely search terms. Mixed-script redirects comprising the native name of the language plus the English word "language". The same terms without "language" (भोजपुरी, Буряад, Беларуская (тарашкевіца), Толыши) exist and point to the same targets. 59.149.124.29 (talk) 13:44, 24 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Per nom. PinkAmpersand There's no need to relist, since it is uncontested it generally can be deleted by an admin. Galobtter (pingó mió) 15:45, 31 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

2017 Doklam standoff

[edit]

The following is an archived discussion concerning one or more redirects. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on an appropriate discussion page (such as the redirect's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this section.
The result of the discussion was retarget to 2017 China–India border standoff. Killiondude (talk) 03:14, 1 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Suggest retargeting to 2017 China–India border standoff. The redirect was created by Kautilya3, whose reasoning for the current targeting is explained on the talk page. However, I don't see the point in not having it target the incident directly. Concerns about the quality of the event's article are outdated, and the conflict itself is long over. I'd assume anyone searching the event mainly wants to know about the event, and the background in that article is sufficient (they can click through if they want to know more, instead of forcing them to click through if they want to know more about the event they searched in the first place - see WP:SURPRISE as well). There is the matter of the standoff affecting other parts of the border, but IIRC it was mainly reported as the Doklam crisis/standoff/whatever. ansh666 03:19, 24 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Oppose - I am not conviced that somebody searching for Doklam standoff wants to know only "about the event". Doklam is a little known region in the world, and they are more likely wanting to find out about the area, the disputes surrounding it and why it is a bone of contention between two major powers. All this background is present in ample measure in the Doklam article, backed by high-quality sources. The 2017 China–India border standoff article was created at the height of the standoff by pro-India and pro-China editors trying upstage each other. The article is still blessed with multiple quality templates, full of typos and grammatical mistakes and poor-quality sources. Even the title of the article is a problem because it is not dealing with the China–India border, but rather the China–Bhutan border. It might in fact be best to redirect 2017 China–India border standoff to the section in the Doklam article. Neither is the conflict "over:, as the nom claims. The Chinese troops have been garrisoning themselves on the Doklam plateau [6] and preparing themselves for a larger conflict at some indefinite future. Neither has there been any change in the Chinese and Indian positions since the standoff. All said and done, nothing has changed since August either in the real world or on Wikipedia that warrants a change in the status quo. -- Kautilya3 (talk) 04:59, 24 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Retarget Except people are not searching for Doklam standoff, they are searching for 2017 doklam standoff. People can find out about the background by clicking on Doklam. Doesn't make sense to not target the main article on the topic. Galobtter (pingó mió) 17:29, 30 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Retarget per nominator. This lemma is a clear {{R from alternative name}} of 2017 China–India border standoff itself. Proposals to merge the standoff to Doklam should be made directly at Talk:2017 China–India border standoff, rather than by pointing other search terms for 2017 China–India border standoff to Doklam. 59.149.124.29 (talk) 01:30, 1 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
