- Angel Studios (San Diego) → Rockstar San Diego (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
Delete, not a valid disambiguator. Lordtobi (✉) 19:05, 8 June 2017 (UTC)
- Unnecessary disambiguation, but the redirect is in use and was on the Main Page in 2008. Peter James (talk) 20:18, 8 June 2017 (UTC)
- Keep. Well-used redirect. Unnecessary disambiguation is not a reason to delete. Thryduulf (talk) 20:57, 8 June 2017 (UTC)
- What makes the disambiguator invalid? Gorobay (talk) 03:07, 9 June 2017 (UTC)
- @Gorobay and Thryduulf:: The disambiguator is invalid because Angel Studios was located in Carlsbad, California, rather than San Diego. Also, the redirect is practically unused, only has one link (of which one transclusion) to it, apart from RfD-related linkage. Lordtobi (✉) 06:55, 9 June 2017 (UTC)
- According to our article, Carlsbad is part of the San Deigo metropolitan area, so the disambigutor seems no different than say London for somewhere more precisely located in Croydon. Also, practically unused is very much not the same thing as unused - even if it had 0 links that would not be a reason to delete if people still used it. Thryduulf (talk) 07:12, 9 June 2017 (UTC)

- The result of the discussion was delete. -- Patar knight - chat/contributions 19:04, 16 June 2017 (UTC)
Delete per WP:RFOREIGN. The language should be Serbo-Croatian. -- Tavix (talk) 17:56, 8 June 2017 (UTC)
- Delete per nom. Thryduulf (talk) 20:58, 8 June 2017 (UTC)
- Delete - It is not English. Can we please have a speedy deletion criterion for foreign language redirects? - Richard Cavell (talk) 22:00, 8 June 2017 (UTC)
- No, we can't. See: Wikipedia talk:Criteria for speedy deletion/Archive 60#Redirects from foreign languages -- Tavix (talk) 23:27, 8 June 2017 (UTC)

- The result of the discussion was retarget to Agent (video game). (non-admin closure) Anarchyte (work | talk) 14:15, 16 June 2017 (UTC)
- Rockstar Agent → Rockstar North (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
Should this point to Agent (video game)? Either redirect or delete. Lordtobi (✉) 17:55, 8 June 2017 (UTC)
- Retarget to Agent (video game) as that's clearly the primary topic based on google searches for the exact phrase - our article is even the top hit. Thryduulf (talk) 07:32, 9 June 2017 (UTC)
- Retarget to Agent (video game) as it's very likely that's what they're searching for. - Richard Cavell (talk) 21:07, 9 June 2017 (UTC)
- Retarget to Agent (video game). It seems unlikely that users would search the said video game using the company along with its name. SONIC678 {Let’s hang out} 19:40, 10 June 2017 (UTC)

- The result of the discussion was dabify. (non-admin closure) Anarchyte (work | talk) 14:17, 16 June 2017 (UTC)
- Black literature → African-American literature (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
Propose creating a DAB page with the current target, African literature, [1] and any other African-X literature pages out there. Not sure that usage, while high, is enough for this to be a primary redirect. -- Patar knight - chat/contributions 01:35, 8 June 2017 (UTC)
- Afro-Brazilian literature,[2][3] Caribbean literature, [4] and maybe Négritude [5] look like good candidates. Black_British#Writers and Black_Canadians#Culture are also possibilities. I'm also surprised there's no articles for them but the See also could link to Category:Black British writers and Category:Black Canadian writers ---- Patar knight - chat/contributions 01:50, 8 June 2017 (UTC)
- I've made a draft version under the redirect. ---- Patar knight - chat/contributions 02:07, 8 June 2017 (UTC)
- Disambiguation page - This definitely should become a disambiguation page. I've contributed to Patar knight's version. - Richard Cavell (talk) 08:14, 8 June 2017 (UTC)
- In fact, it should really be an article, but I don't know enough about the topic to write an article. - Richard Cavell (talk) 08:22, 8 June 2017 (UTC)
- Disambig, which will be needed even if an article is written about the general topic. Thryduulf (talk) 10:48, 8 June 2017 (UTC)
- I also support creating a disambiguation page. CoffeeWithMarkets (talk) 17:15, 8 June 2017 (UTC)
