Delete: the Randen is a mountain range not a hill range and this redirect has been superseded by Randen (mountain range). People searching for the article will never type in "Randen (hill range)", because as they get to Randen the options will pop up. And they may be confused when both "Randen (hill range)" and the article name, "Randen (mountain range)", come up. Deleting this option will leave just "Randen (mountain range)" which will take them straight to the right place. Rationale: avoid confusion and remove an incorrect and totally unnecessary redirect. But the main reason for deletion is: it's misleading, wrong and unnecessary. Otherwise we have carte blanche to create dumb redirects like Appalachian Hills and Himalayan Hills and similar ones for every other mountain range. -- Bermicourt (talk) 20:10, 16 July 2015 (UTC)

  • Keep as a standard {{temp|R from move}}. Search suggestions only work for people who have javascript enabled and who are using the internal search, there are many other ways to search and browse Wikipedia, including links from external websites which will not be updated just because our page moved. Thryduulf (talk) 12:30, 17 July 2015 (UTC)
  • Comment. Okay I get that not everyone has javascript. But then they're unlikely to type in Randen (hill range) either. They'll get to Randen and that takes them to the "Randen" dab page which links to the right article. Either way this redirect is pointless... as well as wrong. --Bermicourt (talk) 20:24, 23 July 2015 (UTC)
  • Comment. In my bizarre way, I found Blue Hills Software. They do a lot with random numbers. Si Trew (talk) 11:41, 18 July 2015 (UTC)

::Apparently I didn't. Try Green Hills instead. I go on the Trail of the Lonesome Pine instead. Si Trew (talk) 11:43, 18 July 2015 (UTC)

  • Keep per Thryduulf. It's mistaken disambiguation, but hills and mountains are pretty similar. More similar than, say, hills and cats, or mountains and Elizabeth II. Close enough. The slippery slope argument that we have to delete this to prevent similar redirects being created is a strawman and is normally rejected here. Or maybe it's a false dilemma; I'm not up to speed on my logical fallacies. Ivanvector 🍁 (talk) 20:21, 24 July 2015 (UTC)
  • Comment. It's neither; it's an analogy. Redirects that make sense are fine; those which are inaccurate spread fallacy. No-one typing Randen needs "hills" or "hill range" to find the article. It's a pointless and fallacious redirect. But hey, Wikipedia's full of them, so one more's not going to make a difference I guess. --Bermicourt (talk) 20:34, 24 July 2015 (UTC)
  • But it's not inaccurate. If a reader is looking for information on these geographic features, they might know that the name is Randen but not know that, technically (and/or pedantically) hills and mountains are distinct definitions. Randen (hill range) gets them to the information they're looking for. We can tag it with {{tl|R from incorrect name}}. Ivanvector 🍁 (talk) 20:56, 24 July 2015 (UTC)

Seems like an unlikely typo. ~GottaGoFast Stepitup 19:09, 16 July 2015 (UTC)

  • Weak delete. Even though the H and K keys are close to each other on keyboards (not next to each other), this seems like an unlikely search term? Do any reliable sources use "Pikapokw" to refer to Pikachu? SONIC678|Hang out with me! 01:41, 17 July 2015 (UTC)
  • Delete. I'm seeing no uses of this word that are not Wikipedia mirrors or directly taken from Wikipedia. Thryduulf (talk) 12:32, 17 July 2015 (UTC)
  • Retarget to Pikachu, much at it displeases me, it would seem the best target. Si Trew (talk) 11:46, 18 July 2015 (UTC)
  • Delete per WP:RTYPO, too many typos to be a plausible search. -- Tavix (talk) 14:27, 18 July 2015 (UTC)
  • Delete. H and K are both on right hand but H on index and K on the middle. No way that should be a typo. (You should have your index fingers on F and J). Si Trew (talk) 15:59, 19 July 2015 (UTC)

Delete: this a Vietnamese word, and the target is a Persian epic. Compassionate727 (talk) 17:52, 16 July 2015 (UTC)

  • Keep. This is the Persian word written in UniPers transliteration. Why do you think it is Vietnamese? Gorobay (talk) 18:43, 16 July 2015 (UTC)

::Yeah don't look like Vietnamese to me, even as a kinda mojibake. Definitely Persian translit. Si Trew (talk) 09:38, 18 July 2015 (UTC)

  • Keep per above. ~GottaGoFast Stepitup 19:00, 16 July 2015 (UTC)
  • Keep per Gorobay. Suggest nominator try searching using Google Books rather than just pasting into Google Translate and assuming that the "Detect Language" feature came up with the right answer. See also #Konungasaga. 58.176.246.42 (talk) 00:58, 17 July 2015 (UTC)
  • Keep: Often, it's unnecessarily time-consuming to look up anything related to Persian culture since there are so many ways of romanizing the Persian language. Creating redirects from other romanized forms helps, then. --Pare Mo (talk) 01:25, 17 July 2015 (UTC)
  • Delete. {{langx|la|pace}} Gorobay, it doesn't help to create translations from other languages unless they are mentioned at the target: and I checked and this isn't. I might translate a French title or Hungarian title if it is mentioned at the target: this is not and therefore is WP:RHARMFUL, I don't sit here writing Đnetrepotevosk because few English speakers would type that, I wouldn't write Szőlősnyárálö either, even though I live there. If you want to type Persian, whatever that is, go to Persian Wikipedia. (I guess, whether you like it or not, it is Iranian Wikipedia at the moment.) We have plenty of articles on Persian language and Persian orthography if your aim is to educate people in Persian culture, but RfD is not the place for that: WikiProject:Persia probably is. Si Trew (talk) 09:28, 18 July 2015 (UTC)
  • Keep per WP:FORRED. Redirects in foreign languages relevant to the target subject are plausibly useful to English readers. If an English reader were to encounter this word and type it here looking for information, we can give them an English-language article about that subject. However I am leaning towards agreeing with Si that the word should be mentioned somewhere in the target article, otherwise WP:SURPRISE applies. Ivanvector 🍁 (talk) 20:28, 24 July 2015 (UTC)
  • “Šâhnâme” is no more foreign than “Shahnameh” so WP:FORRED does not apply: they are two transliterations of the same word. There is no need to shoehorn this spelling in to justify keeping the redirect: WP:SURPRISE covers article content and the creation of useful redirects; it does not say that every redirect title must appear in its target.

  • Delete: [http://www.hollywood.com/movies/the-book-of-joe-59192618/credits/ this website] doesn't show any connection between Brad Pitt the movie. Compassionate727 (talk) 17:18, 16 July 2015 (UTC)

There are a few articles that mention the "Gotham City Thugs," but "The Dark Knight" isn't one of them. I'm not sure if any of them are worth a retarget or if this should just be deleted. -- Tavix (talk) 16:52, 16 July 2015 (UTC)

Delete as WP:POV. GOAT stands for "Greatest Of All Time" and while he has been called that, other people have been called it as well. The nickname is not "official" by any means, but having this redirect pushes that "official" mentality and might make people think that R. Kelly actually is the GOAT of R&B. -- Tavix (talk) 16:21, 16 July 2015 (UTC)

:The result of the discussion was keep. Consensus is clear enough that CJ is recognized legal shorthand. (non-admin closure) Ivanvector 🍁 (talk) 19:51, 24 July 2015 (UTC)

Is "CJ" well understood as an abbreviation for "Chief Justice?" Because if not, this redirect could cause confusion. Compassionate727 (talk) 21:38, 15 July 2015 (UTC)

  • Keep precisely because it's not well understood. This style is quite common in legal opinions, and lay readers who see this in court cases will invariably wonder one or both of (1) what it means, and (2) what the guy's first name is. Furthermore this lemma doesn't seem to have any competing meanings, so there is no risk of confusion here. 58.176.246.42 (talk) 05:17, 16 July 2015 (UTC)
  • Keep but almost or the opposite reason that 58.176 said. As a layman, I need the CJ or His/Her Honour or whatever to be able to defend myself in court when I am not a lawyer. The terminology will vary whether it is Chief Justice (perhaps that is a US thing, not in the UK) or Clerk of Justice. But to know whether Her Worship is Chief of the Peace or a summary justice is yes very important. It may not seem important here but this comes back to magna carta that to no man shall we delay, nor deny, nor prevent, right or justice. (What is it then?) So yes I think it is very important that these are kept here, because I battle the law every day, in the good tradition of Albert Haddock, to preserve your right and justice. I hope you never need it. Si Trew (talk) 09:10, 18 July 2015 (UTC)
  • Comment. "Layman" Come to think of it about three months ago here on RfD didn't we have a discussion about what we were going to do with layman, which I think was a redirect at the time? Lay lawyer still is red I think. Si Trew (talk) 09:13, 18 July 2015 (UTC)

::Yes, it was in february. I listed Lay person, Layperson, Laywoman and various others. We sorted it out. Si Trew (talk) 09:15, 18 July 2015 (UTC)
