These redirects cross namespaces, and thus are unhelpful to the user. There is no significant page history; the page history indicates that these were simply created as redirects and maintained for some reason. They stand in contrast to other cross-namespace redirects by the same user that do have a significant page history, such as his sandboxes 38 and 39. I'm not sure what needs to be done, but I would argue delete. TNstingray (talk) 21:12, 20 September 2025 (UTC)
- Keep all. Redirects from user subpages to other namespaces are completely harmless and should be left alone unless the relevant user wishes otherwise. Thryduulf (talk) 21:20, 20 September 2025 (UTC)

- . Inappropriate redirect that crosses namespaces. Taylor 49 (talk) 21:23, 20 September 2025 (UTC)
- Note the three of these additions that I randomly spot-checked, user:SeanTheYeti452/sandbox/project82, user:SeanTheYeti452/sandbox/project27 and user:SeanTheYeti452/sandbox/project50 are not redirects. Thryduulf (talk) 22:41, 20 September 2025 (UTC)
- @Thryduulf: Note, I did not nominate the user's existing sandbox pages nor proper redirects with page history. However, for the ones I did nominate, I think it is a dangerous precedent to say that anybody can create as many userspace pages as they want and redirect those to mainspace as they please. Namespaces were created for a reason, per the essay WP:CROSS. If we don't want to delete them entirely, that is fine, but they need to be blanked at the very least. I volunteer to do this if necessary, and I will do so upon the closing of this RfD unless otherwise noted. TNstingray (talk) 17:10, 21 September 2025 (UTC)

- Keep; no issue with such redirects from userspace (unless there are WP:U5 concerns or the like, which is clearly not the case here since these are {{R from move}}s). 1234qwer1234qwer4 21:33, 20 September 2025 (UTC)
- Are they "R from move"s though? There is no significant page history on all of the ones I've nominated, I did not check the others provided by Taylor 49 (besides 38 and 39, which are redirects from userspace with page history). The ones I nominated appear to have been created as redirects. TNstingray (talk) 21:36, 20 September 2025 (UTC)
- FYI, the history basically resets when a move is performed, because the history is moved to the new page. Every move leaves behind a redirect to the new page and has a single edit history (until moved again and retargeted, etc.). -2pou (talk) 01:33, 23 September 2025 (UTC)

- Keep All: Per other users who concur. --Cinemaniac86TalkStalk 22:31, 20 September 2025 (UTC)
- Keep all per Thryduulf. Steel1943 (talk) 16:43, 21 September 2025 (UTC)
- Keep all, these appear to be redirects from page moves (at least the first three, which I spot-checked), and there is wide latitude to what is acceptable to have in userspace. In the same way as redirects from accepted drafts are usually kept, so should redirects from userspace drafts. Chaotic Enby (talk · contribs) 19:37, 21 September 2025 (UTC)
- @Chaotic Enby @Thryduulf: When you look at the page histories, the redirects I nominated have either one edit (the creation of the redirect) or two edits (+ a bot fixing a double redirect). Some of the articles (ex. Luna Lovegood, which I spot-checked from project71) were not even created by User:SeanTheYeti452, meaning as far as the evidence I have in front of me, these sandbox pages were just created as redirects. Surely that is not within the realm of what userspace is intended to be used for... do we want users creating (and then Wikipedia maintaining) hundreds, thousands, even millions of cross-namespace redirects?
- Also to be clear, User:Taylor 49 is the one who nominated all of this user's sandbox pages, and I do not agree with their reasoning. Some of them are proper sandboxes; others are proper redirects with page history to the relevant character article. I checked each one and nominated the ones that should not cross namespaces. As I conceded above, maybe "keep" (aka "do nothing") will win per consensus, and I will respect that, but at the very least the redirects themselves should be emptied to avoid setting a bizarre precedent. TNstingray (talk) 23:28, 21 September 2025 (UTC)
- Looking at the relevant part of the page history for Luna Lovegood, as well as the page's logs, the earlier creation date was due to a history merge, which is sometimes necessary for attribution. The later version of the page (created in 2020) was in fact created by SeanTheYeti452 in their userspace, before being moved to the current title (leaving, in its previous place, a redirect with a single-edit history).

what maintenance is required? Unless the pages are actively harmful (no evidence has been presented of this) or are NOTWEBHOST violations (again, there is no evidence of this - and indeed I can't think of a way redirects to Wikipedia pages could be) then there is absolutely no benefit to deletion. Nominating unproblematic redirects for deletion wastes editors' time and is thus what is actually harmful. Thryduulf (talk) 00:33, 22 September 2025 (UTC)- @Thryduulf: I'm sorry for wasting your time. NOTWEBHOST is definitely applicable, despite this type of situation not being specifically mentioned, but as always the letter of the law prevails over the spirit of the law. Maybe we just haven't reached the threshold yet for you to see how this is definitely an issue, like maybe once we reach sandbox/project1000000... maybe I've cost more storage space than I've saved by trying to help, and if that's the case, I'm sorry. If the page history has been moved, there is no reason for the redirect to be maintained as opposed to blanking the sandbox (contrast to his projects 38 and 39, which do still have page history). TNstingray (talk) 12:42, 22 September 2025 (UTC)
- Why is NOTWEBHOST applicable? What is the spirit of that rule that you think this doesn't meet? We routinely keep {{R from move}} redirects in other situations, how and why is this one different? Why is blanking better than redirection? Thryduulf (talk) 15:39, 22 September 2025 (UTC)
- @Thryduulf: The spirit of NOTWEBHOST connects back to the content guidelines at WP:USER, which states that user space
are mainly for interpersonal discussion, notices, testing and drafts (often using sandboxes), and limited autobiographical and personal content
. You would be correct in saying that the letter of NOTWEBHOST specifically restricts using Wikipedia as a web host. My argument is that the mass creation/storage of userspace redirects serves no editing, drafting, or navigational purpose for the encyclopedia. Thus, I suppose this has become a philosophical conversation about project scope and maintenance rather than unprecedented policy violations. - "R from move" does not apply for the specific pages I nominated because they do not preserve any edit history, unlike the active sandboxes and redirects created elsewhere by the same user that I did not nominate (these were tacked on by User:Taylor 49, and I believe this has at least partially undermined my argument and intention).
- Finally, blanking is my attempt to compromise between our visions (I think it would be appropriate to describe you as an Inclusionist, and I would describe myself as a Deletionist, or maybe a Mergist on a good day... none of these is inherently better than the other, it is just my observation). At the end of the day, I would like to maintain the integrity between distinct namespaces and free these user sandboxes to be utilized for their proper function- as sandboxes, not redirects. One day, storage will be an issue, and maybe I'm way too early to be worrying about that, but I have nothing else to add to this matter. Thank you for your valuable time, attention, and consideration. TNstingray (talk) 20:30, 22 September 2025 (UTC)
- TNstingray, deleting pages uses rather than saves storage space. Their histories don't disappear; they remain visible to admins and researchers, and a deletion log entry is created. Also, WP:DWAP. J947 ‡ edits 01:33, 27 September 2025 (UTC)

TNstingray (talk) 12:42, 22 September 2025 (UTC)
- Keep all - I believe cross-namespace is really only a problem if it were redirecting from main into userspace (or draftspace), as this would allow indexed navigation to these pages and bypass any notability requirements. Additionally, I have always understood userspace to be each editor's area where they can work on wikipedia-related content. Not using WP as a webhost would be for things like your personal list of favorite foods, or blogging things, etc. I could see a use where the editor may have an index of WP pages they are interested in editing (created by them or not), but they keep the mapping separate and private and then use those redirects to get to the intended destination. I keep my own to do list fairly cryptic. These seem WP:CHEAP and harmless to me. -2pou (talk) 20:33, 22 September 2025 (UTC)
- Delete all Many violate WP:STALEDRAFT as old drafts not edited for numerous years. Others, such as pure redirects, are technically allowed, but would be uncontroversial maintenance to delete given that they serve no real purpose. The arguments here fall under the lines of "there is no reason to delete" without actually noting a single reason to retain them besides being "harmless". ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 04:59, 25 September 2025 (UTC)
- Although a number of drafts have been posted over the course of discussion, I think this is meant to focus on the redirects. That said, I'm not seeing how STALEDRAFT necessarily supports deletion when this is in user space. The only criteria that might apply is #6. Are we reaching consensus that none of these have any further potential? Those cases should be taken to MfD, though, not here. The first line says it's most common to ignore those. Back to the redirects, though, under the only deletion option in STALEDRAFT, a note also states
Note: Redirects from userspace subpages to mainspace are common and acceptable. Wikipedia:Soft redirect is an alternative considered preferable by some.

@TNstingray: Please note that WP:R#D6 (XNR) does not apply here:It is a cross-namespace redirect out of article space
(my emphasis) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Paradoctor (talk • contribs) 10:35, 25 September 2025 (UTC) - Keep all per Thryduulf. Regardless of anything else, it's perfectly legitimate to keep placeholder blank or almost blank sandbox pages up in one's own userspace for whatever reason. Redirects qualify as almost blank. These pages have no impact on anyone but the user in question. J947 ‡ edits 01:18, 27 September 2025 (UTC)

- Harry potter prophecy → List of Harry Potter characters#True prophecies (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
Which prophecy is this referring to? The character Harry Potter is the subject of a prophecy prior to the series beginning. Another prophecy features prominently in the third book, speaking of Peter Pettigrew. Another prophecy is involved in the play if I remember correctly. Delete as an unclear and unhelpful redirect. TNstingray (talk) 21:09, 20 September 2025 (UTC)

WP:UNNATURAL way of formatting the date. (Whether the correctly formatted version of this redirect is even necessary is a separate question.) — Anonymous 19:40, 20 September 2025 (UTC)
- Comment for clarity the "unnaturalness" here is a missing space following the comma. April 19, 1995 also redirects to the same target (and has done since 2005). 19 April 1995 is a redlink and always has been. Thryduulf (talk) 20:45, 20 September 2025 (UTC)

- Keep as-is since "physical audio files" are NOT physical, and they ARE digital. Alternatively Retarget to Music store since an online music store theoretically at least can sell physical non-digital gramophone records too. Taylor 49 (talk) 21:18, 20 September 2025 (UTC)

- Most intense vortices → 2013 El Reno tornado (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
Unlikely and vague search term to what is clearly not the only primary topic. Created as a BOLD redirect by @WeatherWriter: of an article by @Bruhhhhh789014: and WeatherWriter's summary in redirecting also states WP:BOLD merge as the article is a chart related to the 2013 El Reno tornado. Redirect itself is probably not valid, but the chart was merged, so a redirect is necessary for editor history to be preserved. - as this is for attribution I'm not sure what exactly to do with it but as is the redirect at Most intense vortices seems to be wrong to me. Departure– (talk) 16:29, 20 September 2025 (UTC)
- Delete – Shortly after that BOLD merge mentioned above (about 18 hours to be close to exact), I BOLDly deleted the chart from the article. Unless there is some technicality reasoning as to why it needs to be kept, I do not see a need, given nothing from that article is currently in the 2013 El Reno tornado article.

No mention at target; unrelated "C & A Bank" is described at Samuel May Williams, and I am not sure whether the spelling difference is sufficient to potentially prefer showing the readers that we do not have content on the C&A subsidiary. 1234qwer1234qwer4 14:53, 20 September 2025 (UTC)
- Delete. As far as I can tell, Cofra Holding, which owns the retailer C&A, used to own C&A Bank GmbH but sold it and changed its name around 2013. It's not mentioned at Cofra Holding and was a separate entity from the retailer, and the new company, Bank11 or Bank11 direkt, isn't covered on en-wiki. I can't find much coverage to confirm this but there's no evidence to support the current target or any other. --MYCETEAE 🍄🟫—talk 00:58, 23 September 2025 (UTC)

No adequate mentions of these anywhere on the English Wikipedia. As a sidenote, I spent a good hour looking up each redirect individually. Not a big deal, but I do think that if unhelpful redirects can be mass-created in this manner there should be a way to mass-delete them without too much trouble as well. 1234qwer1234qwer4 13:50, 20 September 2025 (UTC)
- Goodness, that's a lot of redirects. We could probably retarget some of these to more appropriate places:
- Today's Secret Word to Pee-Wee's Playhouse, where the "secret word" thing is mentioned.
- Hyakugojyuuichi 2003 to animutation, where the first Hyakugojyuuichi is mentioned.
- -insert valid name here- (talk) 19:00, 25 September 2025 (UTC)
- Delete all unmentioned anywhere else on wiki, renominate all mentioned individually to avoid a trainwreck nomination. Note that "Toy Food" is mentioned in the target: ; I'm a keep on that one. Also, since I ran my usual RfD script on all of these, to save the future closer the trouble of checking, none of these have any non-redirect history. Rusalkii (talk) 04:42, 28 September 2025 (UTC)
- Delete all except Toy Food per Rusalkii. It seems plausible that several of these titles may have alternative usees, but none of them actually do (there being no encyclopaedic use of "Fire motif" was particularly surprising to me) so there is nowhere to retarget them to.

- Delete; "Togore" is a potential alternate name/sibling for Asriel/alternate name for Kris Dreemurr that became a minor meme in the UT/DR fandom a while ago; nowhere near notable enough for inclusion here. "Grandpa Semi", meanwhile, is a name that only showed up as the filename for an (originally) unused sound effect in the code of Undertale; in a later patch it was renamed to "grandpatemi" and used during fights with Temmie. Also very much not notable. 𝔏𝔲𝔫𝔞𝔪𝔞𝔫𝔫🌙🌙🌙 𝔗𝔥𝔢 𝔐𝔬𝔬𝔬𝔬𝔬𝔫𝔦𝔢𝔰𝔱 (talk) 11:32, 20 September 2025 (UTC)

- Lists of Japanese Governors-General (disambiguation) → Lists of Japanese governors-general (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
Delete. "Lists of Japanese Governors-General" (plural) is not ambiguous. The target is not a disambiguation page. The target is also not a disambiguation-like page that lists different uses of "Lists of Japanese Governors-General". This page serves no purpose whatsoever. This deletion should have been carried out administratively, but G14 was removed by an IP editor. Shhhnotsoloud (talk) 07:46, 13 September 2025 (UTC)
- Comment the IP editor was absolutely right to oppose the speedy deletion - the target is a page that performs a disambiguation-like function. I'm not sure whether this is a useful redirect or not, but it's not speediable. Thryduulf (talk) 10:25, 13 September 2025 (UTC)
- Comment User:Shhhnotsoloud the tag was removed because it did not apply. Please stop tagging pages for speedy that do not meet any of the criteria and list them here if you want them deleted. As you no doubt have experienced, the effort required to do so is minimal. I otherwise have no opinion on this redirect. 204.111.137.20 (talk) 15:26, 13 September 2025 (UTC)
- The target cannot be a disambiguation-like page on the subject of "Lists of Japanese Governors-General", because, to repeat, it is not ambiguous and does not require any disambiguation. The target might be a disambiguation-like page on the subject of "List of Japanese Governors-General", but that's not what I nominated. Shhhnotsoloud (talk) 17:56, 13 September 2025 (UTC)
- User:Shhhnotsoloud, lists are an explicit example of pages performing a disambiguation-like function that make redirects targeting them ineligible for WP:G14; please read the criteria again, read it twice if you have to, and maybe consider that if three people in this very discussion are telling you that your interpretation of policy is wrong you might not know what you are talking about. Don't like that? Go to WT:CSD and ask there but everyone else will tell you the same. In the meantime please stop wasting everyone else's time with bad speedy tags. 204.111.137.20 (talk) 18:16, 13 September 2025 (UTC)
- @Shhhnotsoloud it doesn't matter what subjects are referred to by either the redirect or the target page, even something as obviously unrelated as Seventeen ducks (disambiguation) redirecting to Lists of Japanese governors-general would not be eligible for G14 speedy deletion. The only thing that matters is whether the target page is a disambiguation page or performs a disambiguation-like function for any topic(s). Thryduulf (talk) 10:30, 14 September 2025 (UTC)

- Leaning weak delete as creator of the redirect (which was to a page marked as a disambiguation page at the time). I did have the thought that there is potential ambiguity if we consider Douglass MacArthur to have been a "Japanese Governor-General" in the sense that he was a general who governed Japan; and that there could potentially be people of ethnically Japanese descent who served as Governor-General of places without being representatives of the government of Japan in this capacity, but MacArthur is never referred to by this title, and we have no information in the encyclopedia on persons in the other category. I do agree with Thryduulf and the IP above that this is not a good speedy deletion case. BD2412 T 16:21, 13 September 2025 (UTC)

Oil and gas law does not solely exist in the United States. 1234qwer1234qwer4 03:19, 13 September 2025 (UTC)
- Delete or retarget. As it stands this is clearly incorrect - a substantial portion of the articles in Category:Oil and gas law related to the UK for example. As for what to do, I'm presently torn between deletion per WP:REDLINK and retargetting to the broader topic Energy law. I considered disambiguation, but I think that would be less useful than either of the previous two options - I'm happy to reconsider this if others feel differently though. Thryduulf (talk) 10:53, 13 September 2025 (UTC)

- My pay → Leave and Earnings Statement (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
Generic phrase. Article discusses a system called MyPay, but I think the WP:DIFFCAPS prevent this from being a useful non-ambiguous redirect. Rusalkii (talk) 06:21, 20 September 2025 (UTC)
- Keep synchronised with "MyPay". However that title I think is ambiguous as I don't think the mentions at the target, Portlaoise#Economy, Chime (company)#Products, Bhutan National Bank and The Progressive Accountant#Contributors all refer to the same thing (especially as the last one is stylised "myPay" but I'm undecided if any of these topics merit a dabmention. Regardless, "My Pay" is a plausible misspelling of MyPay, especially for those who have heard of it but not seen it written, and all the uses of "my pay" are either mid-sentence collocations or partial title matches. Thryduulf (talk) 11:06, 20 September 2025 (UTC)
- Keep. Plausible misspelling of MyPay, which is the standard payment system for the entire U.S. military and easily the most significant/notable usage of the term.⇒SWATJester Shoot Blues, Tell VileRat! 22:57, 21 September 2025 (UTC)

- Delete for BLP reasons. There is no doubt this person played a tiny role in the event, but all thing considered (including the reports of his mental health) says we probably should respect his privacy and just delete and maybe salt this. The benefit of keeping it is miniscule compared to the potential damage. Dennis Brown - 2¢ 08:55, 20 September 2025 (UTC)

Thryduulf (talk) 21:14, 20 September 2025 (UTC)
- That hatnote kind of makes sense, although I doubt either article gets tons of traffic. Dennis Brown - 2¢ 23:03, 20 September 2025 (UTC)
- Neither normally gets a ton of traffic, but the politician is usually more popular than the army officer.

- The central character of this sequence is U+1FAEF which is a new emoji "fight cloud" with other keywords "argument | brawl | debate | disagreement | fight | ruckus | wrestle" however, it has zero width joiners either side with adult emoji and I can't find any information on what this sequence will produce. My first thought was that it might be two wrestlers, but 🤼 already exists for that.

- @Clovermoss, I bundled this series of similar nominations for you. As for the redirects, I say keep per https://www.unicode.org/emoji/charts-17.0/emoji-released.html – while these are currently not yet rendered on most devices/in most fonts, Unicode has recently defined these ZWJ sequences as standalone emoji, in the same way many other emoji that are rendered as one character and that can be selected from an emoji keyboard are actually a sequence of characters. Thus, they are in principle plausible redirects. 1234qwer1234qwer4 06:20, 20 September 2025 (UTC)
- That page appears to use a different emoji for ballet dancer, while this one is ballet shoes. I don't think this would ever be rendered as one character? Clovermoss🍀 (talk) 06:26, 20 September 2025 (UTC)
- The codepoint sequence shown there is exactly the one that appears here. Ballet dancer "🧑🩰" (also new and not rendered in most fonts yet) is "🧑" and "🩰" joined by a ZWJ character; these ones have a skin tone modifier in addition, which afaik we generally redirect to the same target as the non-toned version. 1234qwer1234qwer4 06:43, 20 September 2025 (UTC)
- As for
The codepoint sequence shown there is exactly the one that appears here
, I'm afraid I really have no idea what you mean by that. I'm just going off of what I visually see on that page (an emoji that clearly shows a figure dancing and not shoes). If the two really do mean the same thing code-wise and the redirects are plausible, then that's fair. Since you clearly understand this concept better than I do, may I suggest you improve the phrasing at common outcomes? Right now, "Editors should be aware that emojis are often rendered differently on different systems. Titles that contain multiple emojis or mix emojis and other characters are usually deleted
" doesn't really explain how ZWJ works and why that's a reason to not delete redirects. Clovermoss🍀 (talk) 07:09, 20 September 2025 (UTC)- Keep per 1234wer... @Clovermoss Complex emoji can be composed of multiple individual emoji, for example 🏳️🌈 (rainbow flag) is rendered as a single character but is actually composed of three characters: 🏳️ (white flag), a zero width joiner and 🌈 (rainbow). The new ballet dancer emoji is composed of the emoji for an adult, an optional skin tone modifier, a zero width joiner and the emoji for ballet shoes. If you are seeing two adjacent emoji then your system has not been updated with the new emoji yet. Thryduulf (talk) 11:23, 20 September 2025 (UTC)
- Wait, so you're saying it displays properly when I visit that website and not here? My line of thought was that the skin tone modifier was with the figure I was seeing on that site, not the shoes. I think I get it now. I'm okay with withdrawing this. Clovermoss🍀 (talk) 13:45, 20 September 2025 (UTC)
- @Clovermoss: Best way I can explain what is happening without going to deep in the weeds is ... emoji appear differently on all operating systems. Like, on my iOS I am using, these redirects appear as two different characters, but on others, they could appear as one character. There are also cases where an operating system cause two different characters combinations to appear as the same emoji' (See ☄️ (link), for example, and the RfD: Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion/Log/2023 December 7#☄️: On iOS, the two redirects nominated redirects in that discussion appear as the exact same image).

Retarget all to Special:Logout. The first one makes particularly little sense, but the alternatives presented by the targets of the other three do not seem to talk specifically about "logging out". Given that there are hatnotes in place anyway, it might also make sense to make all of them point at the same target. 1234qwer1234qwer4 02:17, 11 September 2025 (UTC)
- Retarget Wikipedia:Logging out to Help:Logging in#Logging out, keep rest. I am not opposed to retargeting Wikipedia:Logging out, but I am not convinced any change is necessary for the other three, given that there are hatnotes in place and some of the shortcuts already have a relatively large number of links. WP:LOGOUT has 237 links, WP:LOGGEDOUT has 104 links, and WP:LOUT has 52 links—almost all of these are in talk page discussions, so unless we want to modify people's talk page comments, it might result in changing the meaning of the talk page comments. (Wikipedia:Logging out is basically an orphan—all of its 9 links are because of this RfD.) If we really want to retarget, my choice would be Wikipedia:Sockpuppetry#Editing while logged out as that is the policy whereas the other options are information pages. (For full disclosure, I created the WP:LOGOUT shortcut.) For Wikipedia:Logging out maybe we can do Help:Logging in#Logging out as that is more about how to log out rather than the policy of what should happen if you have an account but choose to edit while logged out anyway.

- Omg! → Yahoo News#Yahoo Celebrity (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
- OMG! → OMG (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
These should have the same target. I was tempted to redirect omg! to the OMG dab page but it currently has 44 links in the article space which would all presumably have to be unlinked if it were redirected there since Yahoo isn’t on the dab page. Thepharoah17 (talk) 09:08, 11 September 2025 (UTC)
- Keep both redirects per WP:DIFFCAPS but add a hotnote at Yahoo News#Yahoo Celebrity to the OMG dab page. मल्ल (talk) 14:48, 11 September 2025 (UTC)
- Retarget Omg! → OMG. This does not satisfy DIFFCAPS/WP:SMALLDIFFS, so the Yahoo Celebrity target is inappropriate. First, omg! is equivalent to OMG! since people commonly omit capitals when searching, and WP will render omg! as Omg!. Second, as an extremely common slang abbreviation and exclamation, it is commonly written and encountered in the wild with variable capitalization and with the exclamation point. Note that at the OMG dab page, the first entry is:
Oh my God! (sometimes also Oh my Goodness! or Oh my Gosh!)
. Some standard dictionaries even include the ⟨!⟩ in there definition or usage examples for OMG. SMALLDIFFS applies when a particular difference in spelling, punctuation, etc. is highly unlikely to be entered except in reference to a specific target, Airplane! being a canonical example. Regarding incoming links, I spot-checked a few and every single one was used in references/citations, not in the article body. Many had additional information about the publication, e.g. "omg!. Yahoo!" and all had links to the article. The 44 incoming links may need more review and some cleanup but these citations will still be clear and accurate if the omg! points to the DAB page. I have added Yahoo Celebrity (Yahoo News#Yahoo Celebrity) under OMG#Other media. The entry may need to be edited but this should be included on the DAB page regardless of the outcome of this RfD. Keep OMG!. --MYCETEAE 🍄🟫—talk 18:09, 11 September 2025 (UTC) - So, why not just move the current redirect to e.g. omg! (Yahoo)? The 44 links reflect editor behavior, not necessarily reader behavior, and readers come first. The fact that there's no redirect for the proper name "Yahoo Celebrity" doesn't bode well for the comparative significance of this topic compared to the more general one. The fact that when you follow the link to Yahoo News, and then enter "omg!" into their own search field, and this thing doesn't even come up, rather the general definition does - indicates there's little chance the average reader refers to it. Just make its title appropriately precise and be done with it. --Joy (talk) 08:44, 12 September 2025 (UTC)
- If I understand correctly, moving this would result in omg! becoming an {{R from move}}, and thus ultimately still pointing to Yahoo News#Yahoo Celebrity, or it would be deleted. Editors can create new omg!

- @Joy thanks for explaining,
this sounds good to me:) --MYCETEAE 🍄🟫—talk 17:08, 13 September 2025 (UTC) - If the current page is moved, Yahoo Celebrity appears to be the proper name for the new redirect. Unless the history of omg! should be merged with Yahoo! Celebrity. I don't have a good handle on all the implications of history merge so I'll defer to others on that, as long as omg! eventually points to OMG. --MYCETEAE 🍄🟫—talk 01:22, 14 September 2025 (UTC)
