Pigs (1972 film)
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 speedy keep. Justification was provided, withdrawing the nomination. signed, Rosguill talk 21:08, 6 January 2020 (UTC)
- Pigs (1972 film) → Pigs (1973 film) (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
The film does not appear to have been released in 1973. One of the citations in the article mentions "1972" in its title, but if you click through the link the information appears to be about a different film released in 1984. signed, Rosguill talk 19:54, 6 January 2020 (UTC)
- Pigs premiered either in 1972 or 1973, and also received a theatrical release in 1984. A few sources refer to it as having premiered in 1973, and an article by Diabolique Magazine even lists a specific premiere date and location as May 23, 1973 in Detroit, Michigan. However, there are several sources, including multiple book sources, which list the film's release date as 1972. I ran into a similar problem when writing the article for the film Wakefield Poole's Bible, which had conflicting sources listing it as having been released in 1973 or 1974. Luckily, in that case, the director of that film wrote an autobiography in which he stated that the film was released in 1973. However, since I can't seem to find any confirmation from the director of Pigs regarding its premiere date, I'm not sure how we should proceed. –Matthew - (talk) 20:43, 6 January 2020 (UTC)
- I think that if there's this level of uncertainty I'm ok with keeping the redirect, since it's plausible that someone looking for it may only know the potentially-inaccurate 1972 date. signed, Rosguill talk 21:07, 6 January 2020 (UTC)

Several redirects to Russell's paradox
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 delete List- redirects, keep Set- redirects. For future RfD discussions, please follow the instructions at WP:RFD#HOWTO and place tags on the redirect pages. There was a clear consensus from a discussion with several editors so I don't have any reservations about deleting the redirects for which there was a delete consensus, but properly listing the deletion discussions will both ensure that editors interested in the redirects are notified and will help admins closing the discussion by enabling them to use scripts that close RfDs rather than manually deleting each redirect. signed, Rosguill talk 02:10, 14 January 2020 (UTC)
Alright. I've deleted all of my other issues on this page, just because I've recently discovered Special:WhatLinksHere's capability of showing redirects to pages. I've discovered several redirects that belong to the realm of WP:DAFT, so many that I've created a special RfD section. I apologize if this is frustrating, but the page would be WAY too big if I didn't do this. Here are all of the offending redirects:
- List of all lists that do not contain themselves
- List of lists which do not include themselves
- List of all lists which do not include themselves
- List of lists not listed anywhere
- List of all lists that do not contain themselves
- List of lists that do not contain themselves
- List of lists which do not list themselves
- Set of all sets that do not contain themselves
- Set of sets that do not contain themselves
- Set of sets that don't contain themselves
- List of all lists that do not list themselves
- List of lists that don't contain themselves
- List of lists which do not contain themselves
- Lists of lists which do not contain themselves
- List of all lists that do not include themselves
So, luckily, that's all. I've left a usersubpage redirect and two set-of-sets-containing-itself question redirects, because one is just a usersubpage and the others are questions directly asked in the paradox. I think all of these should be removed as they are unnecessary. Nobody will ever really search for these, and they're mainly just jokes. As said, a good place to put these would be WP:DAFT.

Clerk comment: There were some comments that were lost when the nominations were bundled. [1] I've readded them under this collapse so they aren't lost. -- Tavix (talk) 00:14, 7 January 2020 (UTC) I hope this isn't spam at this point. But seriously, this is a bit ridiculous. How many redirects to Russell's paradox do we need? NineFiveSeven 18:25, 6 January 2020 (UTC)
Look at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Redirects_for_discussion/Today#List_of_lists_of_lists_that_don't_include_themselves, it's the same thing as this. (This is absolutely not because I want to help set a new record for fastest-deleted article. Not at all.) NineFiveSeven 17:50, 6 January 2020 (UTC)
Not necessary. I do think it should go to WP:DAFT if it is deleted. NineFiveSeven 17:36, 6 January 2020 (UTC)

- Agree, delete all. Also, please sign the above post. --ChetvornoTALK 19:09, 6 January 2020 (UTC)
- Keep Set of all sets that do not contain themselves as a standard description of the core of the paradox; neutral on the other two variants of that as much less likely targets; delete all the rest (the "list"-based ones are somewhat confusing with respect to WP's uses of lists). –Deacon Vorbis (carbon • videos) 20:32, 6 January 2020 (UTC)
- Keep, neutral, and delete the redirects per Deacon Vorbis; I had come to the same conclusions. --
{{u|Mark viking}} {Talk}
- Keep sets, Delete lists. My reasoning is generally the same as Deacon Vorbis, except I believe the other "set" entry to be a likely attempt by a non-specialist to enter the first "set" entry, and the "list" entries may correspond to a different paradox. As a specialist, I could be wrong about what non-specialists see, though. List/set of all descriptions which do not describe themselves corresponds to a different paradox. Invited from WT:MATH. — Arthur Rubin (talk) 22:27, 6 January 2020 (UTC)
- Keep the ones starting with "set"; delete the ones beginning with "list". The former are standard ways of summarizing the paradox, while the latter clash with the specialized Wikipedian meaning of "list" as a type of page. XOR'easter (talk) 01:41, 7 January 2020 (UTC)
- Keep the ones starting with "set"; delete the ones beginning with "list". Per others above. Paul August ☎ 14:43, 7 January 2020 (UTC)

The target is not a disambiguation page: it is a list of lists and does not disambiguate the term. Speedy delete G14 declined, but other (disambiguation) redirects targeting lists of lists have been speedy deleted. Shhhnotsoloud (talk) 18:08, 6 January 2020 (UTC) Shhhnotsoloud (talk) 18:08, 6 January 2020 (UTC)
Delete. 'G14 also applies to orphaned "Foo (disambiguation)" redirects that target pages that are not disambiguation pages or pages that perform a disambiguation-like function (such as set index articles or lists).' (That guideline could be clearer, e.g. by adding "are" after "or".) Narky Blert (talk) 15:57, 7 January 2020 (UTC)
Reluctant keep. WP:G14 is ambiguous: 'G14 also applies to orphaned "Foo (disambiguation)" redirects that target pages that are not disambiguation pages or pages that perform a disambiguation-like function (such as set index articles or lists).' However, {{db-g14}} is unambiguous: '[G14 applies to] a redirect that ends in "(disambiguation)" that targets a page that is not a disambiguation page or a page that performs a disambiguation-like function' (emphasis added). Taking the two together, (disambiguation) redirects to certain non-DAB pages (those which "perform a disambiguation-like function", horrible expression) are legit.- I think that is bonkers. The only purpose of a (disambiguation) redirect is to tell User:DPL bot that a link to a DAB page is legit, and should not be flagged as a WP:INTDAB error. IMO (disambiguation) redirects to name pages, SIAs, or lists or whatever have no purpose, and should be deleted; but G14 says not. Narky Blert (talk) 22:28, 9 January 2020 (UTC)
- Comment. If anyone feels like opening a discussion on the wording of G14, please {{ping}} me. I may have a strong feeling as to what the result of such a discussion should be, but I have an even stronger feeling that clarity as to what G14 does and does not cover, arrived at by consensus, is much more important. Narky Blert (talk) 22:37, 9 January 2020 (UTC)
- @Narky Blert: I agree with you completely, but G14 was arrived at by consensus which I sense is unlikely to change. In the meantime, Category:Lists of lists shows there are dozens and dozens of lists of lists and only one (this one) has a (disambiguation) redirect to it (see User:RussBot/Non-disambiguation redirects/001). "List of ambassadors of India" is not ambiguous (there's only one meaning of ambassador; there's only one India): there's no alternative meaning of "List of ambassadors of India". There is absolutely no use for this redirect. Shhhnotsoloud (talk) 10:55, 12 January 2020 (UTC)
- Delete (changing mind again). CSD rules for deletion are necessarily more stringent than AfD rules, and G14 is relevant only to CSD. The target is not a DAB page, and the redirect is completely unnecessary. Delete, to discourage the others (per Shhhnotsoloud's observation). Narky Blert (talk) 14:27, 13 January 2020 (UTC)

Third hand

- The result of the discussion was swap Third hand (disambiguation) and Third hand. signed, Rosguill talk 01:56, 14 January 2020 (UTC)
- Third hand → The Third Hand (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
Delete, in the absence of R Third Hand or a DAB page, I think it a stretch that someone searching for "Third hand" ends up at an article about a musical work. By comparison, First hand is a DAB (that doesn't actually list any article called "First hand") and Second hand is an R to Used good, the DAB being at Second hand (disambiguation).
For disclosure, I'm also proposing to move Firsthand (TV series) over Firsthand, and First Hand (album) over First Hand, but I think this is separate enough to list without conflict. 84.236.27.55 (talk) 06:24, 29 December 2019 (UTC)
- Comment. Could we do a soft redirect to wikt:third hand? –MJL ‐Talk‐☖ 16:46, 30 December 2019 (UTC)

Disambiguate for helping hand (tool) and autoblock (which both have "third hand" listed as an alternative name in their respective lead paragraphs) as well as the album. Drafted below the redirect.Move third hand (disambiguation) over the redirect. That page has existed since March 2019 and is linked from the current target, but the current target clearly is not the WP:PRIMARYREDIRECT. 59.149.124.29 (talk) 14:41, 7 January 2020 (UTC)- Round-robin swap Third hand (disambiguation) and Third hand. No WP:PTOPIC or WP:PRIMARYREDIRECT; the (disambiguation) redirect is required by WP:INTDAB. Narky Blert (talk) 16:08, 7 January 2020 (UTC)
- Swap as above, I am the nominator on a different IP address. The fact that I could not find this disambiguation page, even though I had done WP:BEFORE and so on, suggests to me that something was afoot. Putting the DAB there is the right thing to do. 178.164.248.220 (talk) 20:47, 7 January 2020 (UTC)
