Castro (musician)/version 2[edit]
- 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.
- Castro (musician)/version 2 → Castro (musician) (links to redirect • history • stats) [ Closure: keep/delete ]
Title not related somehow. →Enock4seth (talk) 11:30, 5 October 2014 (UTC)
- Comment the redirect has history that has to be preserved somewhere for attribution. Whoever handled the content merge chose not to do a histmerge; I suppose their reason was that a strange redirect title is less harmful than the bizarre diffs in the page history that you inevitably get after a histmerge. 61.10.165.33 (talk) 12:09, 5 October 2014 (UTC)
- Comment I've essentially resolved this concern: I've moved the attributions from this redirect to Theophilus Tagoe, a new redirect I have tagged with {{R from real name}}. Attributions should no longer play a concern on the outcome of this discussion. Steel1943 (talk) 00:28, 6 October 2014 (UTC)
- Delete, now that the attributions have been moved. The format of the redirect title makes it look like a subpage, which it is not. Redirects with titles such as this do not aid navigation in Wikipedia. Steel1943 (talk) 00:38, 6 October 2014 (UTC)
- Delete per Steel1943. Nice work! Si Trew (talk) 08:16, 6 October 2014 (UTC)

Local domain name which isnt mentioned at target. - TheChampionMan1234 03:59, 5 October 2014 (UTC)
- Keep. Goes where it should. Website goes where it should. Si Trew (talk) 13:26, 5 October 2014 (UTC)
- Comment: Yes, airchina.es is the Spanish site for Air China. One trick to remember, in case where the domain name does not go to the expected place, is to look it up in the Wayback Machine (web.archive.org) and check if the site ever went to the expected place in the past WhisperToMe (talk) 14:10, 5 October 2014 (UTC)
- Keep - I can't believe this should ever be redlinked to encourage creation. Leaving us sending readers to what they're looking for, even if the information might be more general. WilyD 12:13, 22 October 2014 (UTC)

It was romanized as Taegu, but never this. - TheChampionMan1234 01:20, 5 October 2014 (UTC)
- Keep. Does no harm. Search results for me are mostly for professor Taeku Lee, who probably is notable but hasn't an article. TAEKU brings up TAEKU, which I am not sure what it is as the website is just a shell ("graphic design", "industrial design", and "architectural design" apparently, but they just seem to make handbills and posters).
{{R from misspelling}}

- Keep - Several sources have spelled the city's name this way, including:
- Schätzl, Ludwig. Regional Development and Decentralization Policy in South Korea. Institute of Southeast Asian Studies, January 1, 1997. ISBN 9813055480, 9789813055483. p. 310: "The cities of Pusan, Taeku, Inchon and Kwangju were administratively separated from the provinces of[...]"

South Korea"
- A good way of checking if a romanized term has been used is to enter it into Google Books.
- WhisperToMe (talk) 02:12, 5 October 2014 (UTC)
- I checked. Since Google knows my geographical address, it targets the results to me, sometimes unwontedly. Google's habit of predicting one's own life and usually getting it wrong. So that is why I said "my search engine brings up..."; I could not get past that. Nice work.Si Trew (talk) 13:29, 5 October 2014 (UTC)
- @Siuenti: is probably the best to judge this one; @Hisashiyarouin:-san a close second. Si Trew (talk) 13:36, 5 October 2014 (UTC)
- Similar professor + inexplicable website + WP mirror results, even under incognito. 野狼院ひさし Hisashi Yarouin 01:59, 6 October 2014 (UTC)
- But following WhisperToMe and trying this ""taeku -lee" search on Google Books finds more mentions:

Keep, looks correct according to the Yale romanization of Korean 94.174.159.93 (talk) 21:31, 9 October 2014 (UTC)- Comment Yale would put it as Taykwu rather than Taeku; see the second column in the table at Yale romanization of Korean#Vowels. 61.10.165.33 (talk) 00:08, 10 October 2014 (UTC)
- Yes that's correct, I'm sorry. 94.174.159.93 (talk) 06:39, 10 October 2014 (UTC)
- Comment Yale would put it as Taykwu rather than Taeku; see the second column in the table at Yale romanization of Korean#Vowels. 61.10.165.33 (talk) 00:08, 10 October 2014 (UTC)
