April 8

This is a list of redirects that have been proposed for deletion or other action on April 8, 2009

The result of the discussion was delete. bibliomaniac 15 The annual review... 20:38, 15 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Oh shi miaaaaaaya → Mothra

Implausible typo. KJS 77 19:33, 8 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Delete I can't see how these two terms can possibly be connected. The target article has no mention of that phrase. tempodivalse [☎] 17:29, 11 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
delete as the term appears unlikely and google only makes two (questionable?) connections with the target. PaulJones (talk) 12:05, 13 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Blagosphere → Rod Blagojevich

The result of the discussion was retarget to Blogosphere.--Aervanath (talk) 04:28, 16 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Article nowhere mentions "Blagosphere". The term is an obvious pun on "Blogosphere"; as for usage, Blagosphere Blagojevich has a fair amount of Google hits, and xkcd happens to use blag, blagosphere for "blog", "blogosphere" - but in my opinion, this isn't sufficient to retain the redirect. - Mike Rosoft (talk) 19:02, 8 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Retarget to blogosphere as possible mispelling. 70.29.213.241 (talk) 08:03, 11 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Kim Glover → New Kids on the Block

The result of the discussion was withdrawn--Aervanath (talk) 04:27, 16 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

delete redirect, unless someone wants to write an article on her. Kim Glover was once manager of NKOTB, as well as other bands, but her name should not redirect to one particular group Susan118 (talk) 15:20, 8 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Or, I might be able to put together a small article on her, but I'm not sure she would be considered notable enough that it wouldn't get deleted. --Susan118 (talk) 20:09, 10 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

OK, I was able to find a bit of info on her, so I think I'll withdraw the redirect deletion request and attempt to write the article, and see what happens. --Susan118 (talk) 20:21, 10 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

America's Worst Governor → Jim Gibbons (United States politician)

The result of the discussion was Deleted by NawlinWiki as CSD G10. -- JLaTondre (talk) 21:10, 8 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

delete. An opinion with many targets, all arguably offensive. americasworstgovernor.com is not a reliable source. TransUtopian (talk) 14:28, 8 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy delete under criterion G10 (attack page). I have tagged it as such already. — Gavia immer (talk) 16:55, 8 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Aintree railway statioons → Aintree railway stations

The result of the discussion was Deleted per CSD G7 (or close enough). -- JLaTondre (talk) 21:19, 8 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Un-needed, spelled incorrectly - there is a redirect for the correct spelling already. Control-alt-delete ★ user◾talk◾favs 08:58, 8 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I did't realise this still existed. By all means go ahead and thanks for the heads up, by the way! Britmax (talk) 19:10, 8 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

St Jhon's wood tube → St John's Wood tube station

The result of the discussion was No consensus so defaults to keep. -- JLaTondre (talk) 20:22, 17 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Delete because this is an implausible typo. Mjroots (talk) 11:57, 8 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. Same reasons as Mjroots. YeshuaDavid (talk) 20:34, 9 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Delete as an implausible spelling. tempodivalse [☎] 17:30, 11 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
retarget to Jubilee line as a user could be looking for info on the line going through St John's Wood rather than the station itself. This interpretation only involves a typo of two swithched letters and capitilisation which is plausible. PaulJones (talk) 09:22, 13 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Keep The switching of 2 letters and one non-capitalized letter seems like a perfectly plausible misspelling to me, and I think that someone typing that would most likely be looking for the station, not the line.--Aervanath (talk) 04:26, 16 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
