• Comment. Google search results for this exact phrase show that Christianity is the clear primary topic, and I think a specific aspect of that - certainly the results appear to be all related to a common theme so I'm not certain this is a vague term in actual usage. Whether the term is unique (or even related) to the current target though is going to require someone who understands the topic more than I do. I'll drop a note for the Christianity wikipproject.

• Keep It is a likely search term as Tavix showed with Peter and Mary as the trio are a well-known folk group. I doubt that people would look for Paul McCartney by simply searching for Paul (singer) as he was also the band's bass guitar player.

• If someone's looking to answer the question of "Who was the "Paul" in Peter, Paul and Mary?", this is a reasonable search term.

• Keep Paul McCartney is not like Paul Stookey, in that the former is a household name, and therefore less likely to be forgotten. Secondly, the former's name was never used as a band name (there was only The Beatles and Wings/Paul McCartney and Wings, never just "Paul") as is the case with Stookey. To drive home the point, there is an album named only McCartney. While there is an album Paul Is Live, it was made as a parody to the urban legend "Paul is dead", not as a way to rebrand himself ab initio as Paul. Just take a look at the article, where you will find a photo of a period magazine putting it as "Paul McCartney Dead". Havradim leaf a message 22:43, 27 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
• Revert to the earlier target of Peter, Paul and Mary. While the current target is technically correct, since we are talking about readers searching and trying to find who the Paul of Peter, Paul and Mary is, the reader is more likely to be helped by a search listing of Peter, Paul and Mary, than the name Paul Stookey.

The result of the discussion was retarget to Far side of the Moon. Thryduulf (talk) 13:15, 15 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

• Dark side of the moon → The Dark Side of the Moon  (talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ] 
• Dark side of the Moon → The Dark Side of the Moon  (talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ] 

Redirect to Far side of the Moon. The word "side" is lowercase here, with "Moon" using a capital letter, so the capitalization only makes sense to be about the dark side of the actual Moon rather than the Pink Floyd album. Note that "Moon" is properly capitalized either way per MOS:CELESTIALBODIES (about that, see also List of missions to the Moon, Far side of the Moon, Orbit of the Moon, Colonization of the Moon, Exploration of the Moon). Also note that the article at Far side of the Moon says the subject is "sometimes called the 'dark side of the Moon'" (with boldface assuming it is the redirect's target per MOS:BOLDFACE). In the edit history, User:Explicit said to "take it to WP:RFD", so that's what I'm doing. See also the early-2019 RM discussion at Talk:Dark Side of the Moon (disambiguation)#Requested move 26 January 2019. Perhaps we should talk about the redirect at Dark side of the moon as well, but I think the case is stronger when "Moon" is capitalized and "side" is lowercased. —⁠ ⁠BarrelProof (talk) 03:40, 13 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

• Retarget to Far side of the Moon. The redirect does not even allude to the Pink Floyd album, and this album is less primary topic for the expression "dark side of the Moon" than the actual dark side of the Moon. Veverve (talk) 06:13, 13 January 2022 (UTC). Alternatively, retarget to Dark Side of the Moon (disambiguation). Veverve (talk) 21:16, 15 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep absent any indication that the title is no longer primary for the album. The celestial body capitalization is not an indicator that the reader is not searching for the album; they could simply be capitalizing a proper noun. -- JHunterJ (talk) 12:14, 13 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • I think that if the reader is picky and knowledgeable enough to use a capital M for Moon, based on it being a proper name, they would also be picky and knowledgeable enough to know that "side" would use a capital letter in a typically formatted album title. —⁠ ⁠BarrelProof (talk) 21:03, 20 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep The title of the album is the primary topic here, the suggestion that people may be trying to look for the celestial body while typing this in is wildly implausible. ValarianB (talk) 12:52, 13 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  Dark side of the moon is exactly what I might have typed in the first instance to get information about that part of the Moon's surface, with Far side of the moon being an afterthought. Havradim leaf a message 02:20, 26 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

• Retarget to Dark Side of the Moon (disambiguation) per the RM verdict. The RM closer changed the target to The Dark Side of the Moon immediately after the move, with summary redir to primary topic per move discussion, but the primary topic discussion was with respect to the uppercases title. Jay (talk) 05:50, 14 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  There is nothing in the RM discussion or verdict that warrants this "per" conclusion. -- JHunterJ (talk) 13:24, 14 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  The result of a Move is a redirect from the source to the destination. That is until you bring logic into it. Jay (talk) 15:50, 14 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  I would not object to retargeting to the disambiguation page, although I still prefer my proposal to retarget to Far side of the Moon. —⁠ ⁠BarrelProof (talk) 21:03, 20 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

• Retarget to Dark Side of the Moon (disambiguation). I don't go with all the upper/lower case stuff. I suspect when people are using a mobile they just type in lower case in hopes. And I'm even less persuaded by there being an actual dark side of the Moon though I accept people use the expression. I really believe the Pink Floyd album is much the most likely but arriving at the disambiguation page is no big disadvantage. Finally, Dark side of the moon should reach the same target as this redirect (wherever that is). Thincat (talk) 16:45, 14 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep both as ((R from incorrect capitalization)). I see no reason why the album should not continue to be the primary topic for incorrect capitalization as well; those seeking Far side of the moon can easily reach it via a hatnote. Nothing is gained from retargeting to the dab page and making those seeking the album navigate through another page. Mdewman6 (talk) 02:22, 21 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • I disagree that nothing would be gained by not having people who are looking for information about the Moon and are correctly formatting the request directed to an article about an album that does not use that typographical formatting. Hatnotes are not as obvious to readers as disambiguation pages. It has been common to refer to the far side of the Moon as the dark side of the Moon, and it takes a bit of thinking about orbital phenomena to realize that its use of "dark" is not celestially accurate. —⁠ ⁠BarrelProof (talk) 16:41, 22 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
• Highlighting for clarification: As noted in the relisting comment, I did not actually propose changing the target of the all-lowercase redirect. I only said "perhaps we should talk about" that, not that we should do it. —⁠ ⁠BarrelProof (talk) 16:47, 22 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
• Retarget both to Dark Side of the Moon (disambiguation). This is a case where systemic WP:BIAS might be coming into play — I for one had not known about any of the cultural references, including Pink Floyd (I knew of The Wall). The redirects in this nomination could easily refer to both the album and the celestial body, so they are instances that require disambiguation. It does not make sense to say that an album that references a celestial phenomenon is more notable than the celestial body itself, any more than saying that Mercury (automobile) is more notable than the planet or the element.

  Support that. Dicklyon (talk) 01:16, 5 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

• Comment/other. Dark Side of the Moon (the Pink Floyd album) is fairly certainly the primary target for searches. "Far side of the Moon" is very likely predominantly the second target. But, there are many other possible lesser targets. A google search brings up both of the two main articles. Distinctions based on capitalisation are rarely going to be of service to our readers. Many are going to search without distinction for caps (lazy fingers? because caps usually don't matter). Consider how the WP search box works. It gives a "smart" results drop-down of 10 possibilities. These smart results are case insensitive. If the album were renamed "Dark Side of the Moon (Pink Floyd album)" or similar, this would clearly distinguish it from all of the other possible uses. "Dark Side of the Moon (album)" is already a redirect for the Floyd album and is probably just as good. "Dark side of the Moon (Earth)" or similar is probably a good redirect to directly target the far side of the Moon from the search bar and the smart results options. Dark Side of the Moon (disambiguation) would then be the target for everything else. There should be no redirects for "dark side of the moon" or different capitalisations of same. This is because they only take up space in the smart results drop-down but suggest there might be a different targets when there isn't. If anything (we really need it) "Dark side of the moon" should target the disambiguation page. To that extent, this is qualified support for the proposal. Cinderella157 (talk) 02:48, 6 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

• retarget to Far side of the Moon I found this RFD by searching for "dark side of the moon" when I was looking for information about the lunar orbit which eventually turned out to be in Far side of the Moon with further detail in Tidal locking. The first thing I think of for "Dark Side of the Moon" (without "The" at the beginning) is Clare Valley shiraz. --Scott Davis ^Talk 13:47, 9 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
• Retarget to Far side of the Moon. This is the only topic at Dark Side of the Moon (disambiguation) that can be capitalized this way and we should prioritize correct capitalization over error. -- Tavix ^(talk) 18:48, 11 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
• Retarget to Far side of the Moon per Tavix. This is one of the only times I can recall an RfD for a redirect that has personally misled me. I was taught growing up that the far side of the Moon was called the dark side of the Moon, and distinctly recall looking it up on Wikipedia once and being surprised to be taken to the article on the album named after it. No one here seems to dispute that "Dark side of the Moon" and "Dark side of the moon", capitalized thusly, refer primarily to the general concept. I am somewhat sympathetic to Thincat's argument that WP:DIFFCAPS may need to be updated for the 2020s (or even 2010s), and a recent RM I started for Cold War (term) saw no consensus to apply DIFFCAPS, so clearly there's ongoing pushback to applying DIFFCAPS across the board. But if someone has chosen to capitalize the "M" here but not the "s" and has omitted the leading "The", I think some level of intentionality can be assumed. For the all-lowercase variant, I feel a bit less strongly, but still come down for retarget simply because "dark side of the moon" more naturally refers to the thing called the "dark side of the moon" than the album titled The Dark Side of the Moon. -- Tamzin^{[cetacean needed]} (she/they) 03:59, 12 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Of the proposed targets for bar president, bar association doesn't discuss bar presidents, List of presidents of the American Bar Association isn't a good target per WP:INUSA, and disambiguation would just give us a random partial list of bar associations since basically every bar association in the world has either a president or a chair without any deep rationale for one title vs. the other.

WP:RDELETE reason 9. The redirect was made without any consensus from other editors. The reasons listed by the editor has not validated the fact that Wikipedia has been using "Russo-Ukrainian" to explain the conflict between both countries in several articles, even in the master article listing the previous crises between Russia and Ukraine.

Keep this redirect that uses adjectival forms for Russia and Ukraine and is also a logical way to describe this crisis. There is never one and only one way to refer to an event like this, so redirects are good as they allow people to enter different names that work.

• Comment - @PenangLion: I'm not sure I understand this nomination. As of this moment, the article is currently called 2021–2022 Russo-Ukrainian crisis, but I don't think that was the case when the nom was made. If the question is whether the title should include "Russia" or "Russo" (and similarly for "Ukraine" or "Ukrainian"), that should be decided by a WP:RM if there is edit-warring over this.

WP:RDELETE reasons 2 and 10. The redirect is confusing since these are not the same subjects. The redirect can plausibly be expanded into an article and the target article contains virtually no information on the subject. Muhandes (talk) 12:18, 31 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

• Comment - Are we certain the target itself is notable? All these redirects strike me as a way to get a bunch of non-notable artists on Wikipedia in some capacity...but I'm not particularly convinced the main target is even notable. If that were deleted, then these all could be speedied. Just a thought. Sergecross73 msg me 15:44, 31 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

• @Sergecross73: From a cursory view, Kevvo satisfies several criteria under WP:MUSICBIO. He has been certified by RIAA thrice already.[1]. He has charted in several charts.[2][3] and there is some coverage here and behind a paywall here. I didn't read any of those in details, so I can't say the article will survive AfD, but it seems possible. Nevertheless, the redirects are misleading, with quite a number articles using them and assuming there is an article behind them. I am assuming good faith but there is always a possibility this was done as part of a promotional effort. --Muhandes (talk) 08:17, 1 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

• Gotcha. Yeah that's a pretty solid argument for notability, so nevermind. I originally had my doubts because most of the article focuses on these trivial "diss tracks" and "beefs" with other rappers rather than any of those rather important points.

• Swordtail Breeding → Fishkeeping  (talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ] 

What a surprise. Also, there's no section in the target of Swordtail, Xiphophorus, where this redirect could plausibly target; however, Green swordtail#Breeding does exist, but the aforementioned article is not the target of Swordtail. Steel1943 (talk) 09:44, 31 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete. I've looked through a variety of swordtail-related aquarium fish pages, and there isn't really a good target, and we don't normally have redirects for the breeding of aquarium fishes. Any reader interested in the subject will just look for Swordtail and be redirected to the genus, which in turn links to all the species. --Tryptofish (talk) 17:42, 31 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep - I can see this being a term that some people search for if they encounter it on some of the more dubious parts of the web. Having a hard redirect to White genocide conspiracy theory makes it very clear what the truth of the matter is. So in that sense, I can see it doing some good.

• Keep - to prevent someone from creating an article on that name. The existence of the redirect shows that it is in fact a conspiracy theory.---Avatar317^(talk) 03:55, 1 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep - We can't expect our readers to know that this is a conspiracy theory and not something seen as a serious position. If we assume the reader knows everything already then there's no need for an article. If there is concern about recreation as a separate article etc then it can be edit-protected.
