Delete - I have since refactored the page to be about the DS browser only, as it originally was, since that is the only individually notable one.

A separate article could contain additional information of interest, such as the tour dates (and which of those were postponed/cancelled due to the continuing tour mishaps).

• Disambiguate. This could refer to multiple positions within the context of Christianity. The standard trinitarian formula is "One God, three persons." A unipersonalist believes that God is one person. This could mean rejecting that Jesus was divine, which is Unitarianism (historically Arianism), or believing that he became divine but was not, to borrow trinitarian language, "true God" (Adoptionism). It could also refer to the belief that Father and Son are different aspects of the same person (Modalism). In addition to all of these Christian uses, the term would apply to "true" monotheism (i.e., Judaism and Islam). —Compassionate727 ^(T·C) 05:25, 4 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

• Retarget to nontrinitarianism. "Unipersonalism" is equivalent to the general concept of "Unitarianism", but because that term tends to be much more specific than the general concept (you won't find Jehovah's Witnesses describing themselves as "Unitarian", for example), we need to redirect to a different term that refers only to the general concept. (Think of this like politics: labour issues in politics aren't necessarily tied to the politics of a Labour Party, some conservatives disagree with a Conservative Party, socialists won't necessarily join a Socialist Party, etc., and in the same way, not all unitarians are associated with Unitarianism.)

• Comment. It may be noted that the two redirects mentioned in my "Delete" vote above — Dick Wieand → Friday the 13th: A New Beginning and Dick Wieand → Friday the 13th: A New Beginning have been both deleted. Actor Dick Wiend and Dick Wieand (same person) has no Wikipedia entry and his supporting role in Friday the 13th did not result in the film's article mentioning him in any way other than including his name in the film's cast list.
  Likewise here, Kristen Cui is not mentioned in any way within her film's Wikipedia entry, other than her name appearing in the film's cast list, as pointed out in the "Delete" vote by CycloneYoris, above. Here is IMDb's list of the 24 cast members billed in the end credits of Knock at the Cabin. Six of those billed cast members have Wikipedia articles. Should we then create bluelink redirects for the remaining 18 cast members, such as Kristen Cui, so that all of those links flow to Knock at the Cabin?
  Taking a wider view, Wikipedia has thousands of film articles in which cast members who do not have Wikipedia entries are left unlinked or as redlinks. Should we then create thousands of redirects for actors without articles so that all those redirects flow to one of the films in which such actors appear?
  Otherwise, why would we make an exception for this cast member by keeping this redirect when we do not keep other such redirects? Certainly, WP:RECENT is not sufficient to warrant such an exception. —Roman Spinner (talk • contribs) 02:02, 19 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • I. precedent is generally not accepted at RfD; at least insofar that individual results vary widely from any norm. Anyway, this instance is different in that, unlike with Wiend, Cui has a clear primary target on en.wp and therefore a direct redirect is more helpful than search results.
    II. Yes. A redirect here is more helpful than search results.
    III. Except where there is no clear target, yes. J947 † ^edits 05:07, 19 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

    Precedent is indeed accepted at RfD as well as at other Wikipedia venues and Cui is exactly the same as Wieand. Both appear in the cast list of Wikipedia entries for their respective films and both have no Wikipedia entry as of this writing. Therefore, by definition, neither should have had a bluelink which gave the false impression that a Wikipedia article existed delineating the bluelinked subject. That has always been the accepted procedure and if a user finds any other actor name which redirects to a film, such a redirect should be submitted here for deletion.

    The same procedure also applies to film titles that have no Wikipedia entries, but are nonetheless redirected to their directors' or actors' entries. An example was recently found at Oh, Baby! (2020 film), which redirects to the entry for its director Kate Morgan Chadwick, thus giving the false impression that it has a Wikipedia entry. This redirect will be likewise submitted here for deletion. —Roman Spinner (talk • contribs) 06:37, 19 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

    Given that there exist no mainspace links to Cui, it won't mislead readers. In terms of the other point, is it needed to repeat that unlike with Wiend, Cui has a clear primary target on en.wp? It's a normal opinion to support deleting Wieand but not Cui.

    In fact, I reckon I can show you many instances of very similar redirects listed (a few months apart or something like that) to result in wildly different outcomes here at RfD. Therefore precedent is that precedent is not a trump card. J947 † ^edits 07:19, 19 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

    If by "clear primary target", it is understood to mean that Cui has only a single film credit, while Wieand has several film credits, it is still unclear how a performer with a single film credit should have a redirect flowing to that film credit, while a performer with several film credits should not have a redirect at all.

    The main point is that creating redirects for actors who do not have Wikipedia articles, whether they have one credit or a hundred credits, only creates redirect clutter. As previously mentioned, eighteen Knock at the Cabin credited cast members, including Cui, have no Wikipedia articles and it is counterintuitive to single out Cui as a redirect subject, while leaving out the others.

    At the very least, if Wikipedia's Knock at the Cabin article was a lengthy examination of the film's casting process which discussed the actors in question, an argument could have been made that the redirects of cast members' names to the film's Wikipedia entry provided some major or even minor details about their personalities. However, the article in its current incarnation does not provide any such information, thus undercutting justification for the creation of these types of redirects. —Roman Spinner (talk • contribs) 08:26, 19 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

    It is my opinion that a redirect is a better solution than leaving readers on an unhelpful "this article does not exist" landing page or a list of search results. Simple as that. J947 † ^edits 19:44, 20 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

    Although it is as simple as that, the simple fact is that Wikipedia blue links are expected to flow towards existing Wikipedia articles or alternative titles for such articles. Exceptions are made for substantial content within larger articles, such as titles of TV episodes that flow towards articles about series that list each episode and provide a brief synopsis and cast list. Another example would be an article about an event, such as one of the "Murder of..." articles, that provides biographical sketches of the victim and the perpetrator. A mere mention of a name within an article is insufficient for creation of a bluelink simply because it offers no detail. —Roman Spinner (talk • contribs) 19:37, 22 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

    It might bear repeating that there is no mainspace blue link to this person, and as long as this redirect exists in such a manner there shouldn't be one. The rest of your comment – well I completely disagree, and so do the guidelines at Wikipedia:Redirect/Deletion reasons. J947 † ^edits 21:39, 22 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

    It might also bear pointing out that anyone is free to create a mainspace biographical entry for Kristen Cui and then create legitimate redirects, such as Kristin Cui, Cristin Cui or Kristen Kui. However, a redirect which points to an entry that contains no information about the subject of the redirect is not a legitimate redirect per the very same Wikipedia:Redirect/Deletion reasons — "10. If the redirect could plausibly be expanded into an article, and the target article contains virtually no information on the subject." Of course, there is also the likelihood that if a biographical entry for Kristen Cui were to be created, it would be submitted for deletion at WP:AfD per WP:NOTABILITY. —Roman Spinner (talk • contribs) 03:27, 23 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

    Of course, there is also the likelihood that if a biographical entry for Kristen Cui were to be created, it would be submitted for deletion at WP:AfD per WP:NOTABILITY: i.e., by a reasonable interpretation the redirect cannot plausibly be expanded into an article. Either way, that's overruled by RHARMFUL ([...] consider the deletion only of either harmful redirects or of recent ones) and K5. J947 † ^edits 04:04, 23 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

    This nomination is focused upon the argument that if Kristen Cui is currently insufficiently notable to be the subject of a Wikipedia entry, she is likewise insufficiently notable to be the subject of a Wikipedia redirect, which is indeed a recent one, having been created only seven weeks ago, on February 2, 2023. —Roman Spinner (talk • contribs) 04:36, 23 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

    Of course it's a recent(ish) redirect me dumb. Anyway, the point is that this redirect existing is more helpful to the reader than it not, and nothing that you have said has remotely convinced me the other way. J947 † ^edits 04:54, 23 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

    But the whole point of this deletion discussion is that redirects should not be created if "the target article contains virtually no information on the subject", as in the case in Kristen Cui redirecting to Knock at the Cabin, which provides no help to the reader. —Roman Spinner (talk • contribs) 06:29, 23 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

    But it does provide help to the reader. As it stands, this redirect tells them precisely two things: Kristen Cui is known for acting in the film Knock at the Cabin, and in the film she played Wen. If this redirect is deleted, the reader can figure out the same two things, but it's a slower process with higher potential for error. J947 † ^edits 06:57, 23 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

    By that standard, since Kristen Cui's name in the film's credits is followed by McKenna Kerrigan, Ian Merrill Peakes, Denise Nakano, Rose Luardo, Bill Vargus (actor), Satomi Hofmann, Kevin Leung, Lee Avant, Odera Adimorah, Kat Murphy and Kittson O'Neill, to name but ten among the many redlinked names that could be created as bluelinked redirects to Knock at the Cabin, thus causing Wikipedia to be potentially littered with thousands of such uninformative redirects from various films and other topics (the one bluelinked name above — Denise Nakano — is a redirect not to Knock at the Cabin, but to an article where she is apparently not even mentioned, which indicates that her redirect should likewise be submitted for deletion, rather than converted into a redirect to Knock at the Cabin). —Roman Spinner (talk • contribs) 08:22, 23 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

    Yes, creating those redirects would be helpful as I said before. It's more informative than search results. Not a massive priority, but hardly something which should be deleted. J947 † ^edits 09:39, 23 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep per everyone above me. This may be unnecessary disambiguation, but it's descriptive, unambiguous, not harming things around here, potentially helpful, and furthermore, Tupac is frequently called just that. I don't really see a reason why this redirect needs to go. Regards, SONIC⁶⁷⁸ 01:26, 12 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep: Until March 2016, Tupac (name) was at Tupac so this redirect makes sense given that for a long period of time Tupac did not go to Tupac Shakur also as stated above, it's a WP:CHEAP redirect. TartarTorte 16:20, 13 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

• Comment: Kirk Thornton has been created as Ron Allen based on sources in the article, but Ronald Allen is also an actor. Hey man im josh (talk) 19:24, 13 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  But Thornton is only a voice actor. ErceÇamurOfficial (talk) 16:55, 17 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  I guess I’ll expand my reasoning as I didn’t really have a lot of time to write my reasoning. As said per below, Ronald Allen doesn’t really go by the name of Ron Allen. I argue that a voice actor/voice actress is more of a sub type of a actor/actress, which is why I had linked another RFD that is similar to this one. Pizzaplayer219^Talk_Contribs 17:33, 19 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep Ron Allen (actor) as a redirect to Kirk Thornton, per Pizzaplayer219, above. Since Kirk Thornton has been occasionally credited as "Ron Allen", it would be appropriate to use this alternative stage name in Wikipedia entries delineating projects in which he is billed as "Ron Allen". Also, there is no indication that English actor Ronald Allen was ever credited as "Ron Allen" or that he ever used "Ron Allen" as an alternative stage name. In any case, hatnotes to the Ronald Allen (disambiguation) page resolve any confusion. —Roman Spinner (talk • contribs) 02:35, 19 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Retarget to title suggested by nom. Redirecting this title to keep local makes no sense, as it's already been moved to Commons, why name this redirect "NoCommons" in that case? Justarandomamerican (talk) Have a good day! 03:50, 11 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

• Note that this really ought to be bundled with ((Nocommons)), which also redirects to ((Keep local)). I created this redirect as a logical capitalisation variant of Nocommons, and I can't imagine why we'd want them to redirect to different places. Nyttend (talk) 08:37, 11 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

• Henry Colley (died 1700) → Henry Colley (died 1719)  (talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ] 

Redirect title contains incorrect information about the subject (actual death year was 1719) DeemDeem52 (talk) 00:58, 11 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep From April 2010‎ to June 2022, the article was called "Henry Colley (died 1700)" and it was moved at the start of July in 2022. Per the history, Pwaldron moved page Henry Colley (died 1700) to Henry Colley (died 1719): Year of death is wrong; about to add sources to confirm. So "(died 1700)" is incorrect. However, even with the move there has been a decent amount of use. Since the creation of the redirect, it has been used over 3,000 times and excluding September 2022, it has been used over 2,100 times. (For some unclear reason, there was a significant increase in usage of the redirect starting on September 8th and continuing though almost the rest of the month.) Given the usage, I would say that it should be kept with a redirect template added to it to make it clearer that it is in use due to the mistake. (Template:R from incorrect disambiguation?) --Super Goku V (talk) 01:57, 11 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep per Super Goku V. When an article's had a certain title for a very long time (in this case, the majority of Wikipedia's history), the old title pretty much always should be retained. This isn't a case of retaining a created-by-pagemove-vandalism redirect, which is unlikely ever to be used. To the contrary, it presumably has hundreds or thousands of incoming links from Wikipedia alone — for example, in the history of Richard Wesley, 1st Baron Mornington (his son), [1] and [2] both link to this redirect, as (presumably) do all 129 page revisions between them. ((R from incorrect disambiguation)) is indeed the correct way to handle this. Nyttend (talk) 08:46, 11 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep per above. J947 † ^edits 10:43, 11 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
