Cross-namespace redirect unlikely due to the omission of the colon. Steel1943 (talk) 22:43, 29 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Unlikely cross-namespace redirect. The symbol after the "WP" is a period, not a colon. Steel1943 (talk) 22:38, 29 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Keep Some editors may remember the redirect as such, myself included. Nightscream (talk) 01:55, 30 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
...Considering that there are no other cross-namespace redirects that begin with "WP.", this redirect is just unnecessary WP:COSTLY-ness. Steel1943 (talk) 10:16, 30 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
...And what evidence is there that editors will "...remember [this] redirect as such..." when this redirect was created only about a week ago? Steel1943 (talk) 10:19, 30 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Useless redirect, as "great power" and "major power" are two different things, and the redirect target only mentions Germany along with many other great powers. 1990'sguy (talk) 22:21, 29 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Per WP:SURPRISE -- the redirect target has nothing to do with potential superpowers and only has some passing mentions of Germany. 1990'sguy (talk) 22:18, 29 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Unlikely capitalization/form of navigation template. UnitedStatesian (talk) 18:29, 29 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

But what is the point of misspelled navigation templates? UnitedStatesian (talk) 18:13, 30 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
All I’m seeing here is a capitalization difference and a singular/plural difference. That’s not a misspelling ... which if one did exist, I’d opt for deletion instead. Steel1943 (talk) 20:01, 30 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Apologies: meant to ask, what is the point of having multiple forms of a navigation template, if the redirected form is not used in any article? UnitedStatesian (talk) 02:46, 31 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
For navboxes, it cannot hurt and could potentially be helpful, but specifically capitalization and/or singular/plural differences. I mean technically, there are softwares listed in the navbox, so this particular title could be a helpful search term. Steel1943 (talk) 22:20, 31 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
But templates do not appear in search results. UnitedStatesian (talk) 05:01, 6 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Use Philippine English

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 Create template. I've created the template as well as Category:Use Philippine English and Category:All Wikipedia articles written in Philippine English (though I'm not sure the latter is needed?) and Template:Use Philippine English progress. ~ Amory (utc) 17:28, 10 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Contradicts ((Philippine English)). This redirect implies that Philippine English = American English which is wrong according to the talk page notice (it says Philippine English uses the British double-l (' travelled ')), the article on Philippine English, and many of the sources I'm seeing online. Even when the sources disagree on what constitutes Philippine English, few (if any) consider it to be effectively the same as American English.

  1. copy ((Use American English)) and change "American" to "Philippine" in the two places where it appears
  2. create Category:All Wikipedia articles written in Philippine English (with parents Category:Hidden categories and Category:Wikipedia articles written in a national variety of English)
  3. create Category:Use Philippine English (with parent Category:Wikipedia maintenance categories sorted by month)
AnomieBOT should then create the necessary month subcategories eventually. However AWB and other bots would require additional changes to know about the new template (e.g. I think it has to be added manually to Wikipedia:AutoWikiBrowser/Dated templates) and to enforce the appropriate spelling rules on pages that are tagged with it 59.149.124.29 (talk) 07:34, 20 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
Relisting comment: Unless a draft template is created (possibly at Template:Use Philippine English/sandbox or something of the like), opinions to create a template are somewhat akin to "delete per WP:REDLINK". Relisting to give time for more feedback, as well as allowing time for a draft template to be created.

Though there was some speculation of an early election, a Swedish parliamentary election never happened in 2015. 1990'sguy (talk) 02:15, 29 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

From what I gathered there was A budget crisis in 2014 and the Goverment planned to hold a Snap election in March of 2015 but it was later called off after a budget agreement was made. Due to this the 2018 election article was originally titled Swedish general election, 2015 due to an assumption of a snap election which explains why this redirect was made. If kept it should be retargetd to 2014 Swedish government crisis for context but I still don’t see it as necessary.--67.68.28.220 (talk) 07:34, 2 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
