The result of the discussion was no consensus. The keep and delete votes were only regarding the Russian symbol, and did not provide an opinion about the suggested target Wolfsangel. The retarget vote did not provide an opinion about the Russian symbol. However, retargeting to Wolfsangel as a more appropriate target based on the nomination, and a better target based on one comment. Jay (talk) 19:12, 14 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

• Z (hate symbol) → Z (military symbol)  (talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ] 

The Russian "Z" does not appear to be regularly described in reliable sources as a hate symbol – a more appropriate target would probably be Wolfsangel per USA Today. Maybe I missed something, since it's a tad difficult to search for a single letter in this manner, but I would suggest it's too soon to be classifying the Russian "Z" as a hate symbol, given the reliable sources aren't there. Sdrqaz (talk) 00:56, 9 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

• Comment - Redirects don't require reliable sources, they just have to be an unambiguous alternate title or search term. That said, you may be right that Wolfsangel is a better target, except that the Russian Z is a current hot news topic and people may be struggling to figure out how to describe it in their searches for it... and this does seem to be a plausible way they might search for it, given that some people (not reliable sources, just some people) online are describing it as a hate symbol. I almost want to create a disambiguation page for various uses of Z-like symbols as group identifiers, but that might be too broad. But regardless... searching for information on this thing is difficult, because it's so generic! It's just a letter of the alphabet! Fieari (talk) 03:26, 9 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

• Homaridae → Lobster  (talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ] 

Not mentioned in the target article, so it is unclear what this is meant to refer. It seems this word has some sort of connection to lobsters, but the closest title match I could find is Homarus, and it is not completely clear if the redirect and the aforementioned term are synonymous. There is also Homeridae, but that is a subject unrelated to lobsters. Steel1943 (talk) 05:38, 23 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Steel1943: it was a spelling mistake in Lobster that seems to have been there for a long time (and wrongly italicized). "Homaridae" is a junior synonym. I've corrected the article with a reference. A Google Scholar search shows that older sources frequently used "Homaridae". Peter coxhead (talk) 07:32, 23 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep CoBain per Sonic678 - the 150-200 hits per year it consistently gets is a very large number for a redirect, statistical noise amounts to a low single digit number per year. I've got no idea where those views are coming from, but that doesn't matter - making it harder for the people to access the content they are looking for harms the encyclopaedia without bringing any benefits.

• Keep/delete per Thryduulf. Zaathras' argument is just incorrect; 146 pageviews per year is well above-average for a redirect. Looking through my own redirect creations, the only ones that exceed that are ones where I happened to snag a common term that for some reason hadn't been redirected yet, like Meteorological event or Transfem. As to Zeke's argument, we don't break incoming links just to teach our readers a lesson about spelling. In fact, our guideline says the exact opposite. There are valid reasons to break incoming links (like if the redirect is impermissibly non-neutral), but that isn't one. I don't like the idea of keeping CoBain, but it seems clear enough it's what we have to do. If someone wants to check back in a few years, maybe whatever page links to that redirect will have gone down or changed the link, and we can delete it. Delete ToBy as probably just noise from search-bar suggestions, or miscapped searches that Special:Search would have handled anyways. -- Tamzin^{[cetacean needed]} (she/they) 18:38, 22 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep. While eventually we should have articles about both, the redirects are reasonable as they are pointing to the most closely related content we have right now. The redirects can be switched into articles whenever someone feels competent enough to write them.
