From what I have found, this seems like the Vietnamese word for "uncle". Well, uncles aren't exclusively a Vietnamese concept. Steel1943 (talk) 21:41, 31 July 2015 (UTC)

can't find evidence that it means anything in any language, aside from possibly being a name. Definitely doesn't sound Vietnamese to me. If it were a correct Vietnamese word for uncle it might be retargeted to an article which covered Vietnamese kinship terminology or family structure, but the actual Vietnamese words for uncle are chú or bác for your dad's brothers, cậu for your mom's brothers, dượng for uncles-by-marriage (i.e. mom or dad's sisters' husbands), and ông (literally "grandpa", general respectful term for old men) for great-uncles. 58.176.246.42 (talk) 02:15, 2 August 2015 (UTC) - The initial revision claims it's a word from Maldives, i.e. Dhivehi language.

This redirect is not mentioned in its rather article, and the redirect just seems too ambiguous to be useful. Steel1943 (talk) 17:22, 31 July 2015 (UTC)
Speedyretarget to Son as {{t|R from synonym}}. Seems obvious? --BDD (talk) 18:26, 31 July 2015 (UTC)
:*I'd be worried about that since the synonymous connection is not mentioned in the article, and I was not able to confirm the validity of that statement based on results I found on search engines, and I looked for a while. (I've never heard of this term before: in fact, when I see this term, I think of an issue of a magazine.) Steel1943 (talk) 18:30, 31 July 2015 (UTC)
:::Ok, I see where you're coming from. As a synonym, I don't think it needs to be explicitly mentioned there. I imagine a reader, probably not great with English, coming across the term "male issue" and not knowing what it means—this would mostly work there. Are there magazines that publish an annual "male issue" or something? --BDD (talk) 19:11, 31 July 2015 (UTC)
::::I'm not sure, but I would assume that there is a notable magazine subject that does, similar to how the "Swimsuit Issue" redirect exists. Steel1943 (talk) 21:34, 31 July 2015 (UTC)
- Retarget to Son per BDD, but I don't think speedy. I'd like to see what else people come up with for this. In this context "issue" is the term used for children of people who hold hereditary noble titles, such as the list at Sophia of Hanover#Issue. However I'm wondering if there's a competing usage for "stuff which concerns men", such as how women's issue redirects to oh, no, it's red. Never mind. Ivanvector 🍁 (talk) 18:37, 31 July 2015 (UTC)
- Men's issues is blue, though. – iridescent 18:43, 31 July 2015 (UTC)

This specific subject is explained nowhere in the target article. In fact, the word "African" is nowhere in the target article.

- Delete per apparent lack of connection. Rubbish computer 14:55, 31 July 2015 (UTC)
- Comment. The connection is found in the reference citation that was removed (and rightly so) from the redirect. That citation has been placed on the talk page of the redirect. Gonick, the author of [http://smile.amazon.com/Cartoon-History-Universe-Volumes-8-13/dp/0385420935/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1438401180&sr=1-1#reader_0385420935 The Cartoon History of the Universe], mentions on page 298 of his work that Prince Justinian's birth name was "Peter Sabbath" and that "Justinian" was his adopted name. This redirect is not mentioned either in the present target's article or the perhaps better target, the article about Gonick's work. Perhaps if "Peter Sabbath" were to be written into the article about Gonick's work, then this redirect could be retargeted there. Barring that, a Google search provides us with a priest who might be notable someday, which means this redirect might be better off as a red link. It's a 7-year-old redirect, so external links breakage should also be a consideration. – Paine 04:42, 1 August 2015 (UTC)
::I wasn't certain how reliable Gonick's work was and the article on Justinian is quite tightly written, so I decided to add the redirect as a compromise. What ever happens to the redirect, I would like it if some way could be found to keep the information.--Auric talk 21:35, 5 August 2015 (UTC)
:::Well, as I'm sure you're aware, the only way to be sure to keep the information is to find an appropriate way to mention the redirect in an article. If as I said, the redirect could be mentioned using the source on its talk page in the article on The Cartoon History of the Universe, then in addition to keeping the information, this redirect could be retargeted to that article. Or, if this redirect is deleted, then at least the sourced information would be in the article about Gonick's work. – Paine 06:54, 7 August 2015 (UTC)

- Delete per apparent lack of connection. Rubbish computer 14:56, 31 July 2015 (UTC)
- Keep. I know Jennifer Niederst, so I can personally attest that the following is a legitimate page, a page where she makes the connection quite clear: http://www.jenville.com/. More generally, this name association, complete with birthplace, is made at literally thousands of pages on the Web, such as IMDB, and of course at the article Liam Lynch (musician). If it were false, and Wikipedia were responsible for the false information, wouldn't Mr. Lynch have been likely to complain? (And finally, may I suggest that in the future, when the editor who created the redirect - in this case, that's me - is still active, it would much simpler just to ask a question on that editor's talk page.) -- John Broughton (♫♫) 23:05, 31 July 2015 (UTC)
::Well I still don't see any connection at Wikipedia, which I think was the implication in the question by the nominator: searching for "Bill" in the target article yields nothing. {{ping|John Broughton}}, despite what you say, this name is not mentioned at Liam Lynch (musician) as far as I can tell. Nobody suggested the information was false, the implication was (I think) that it is a WP:SURPRISE to put in this name and end up at an article which doesn't mention it.
::After all, there are probably many Bill Niedersts (and Billy Niedersts and William Niedersts) in the world, many of whom are not WP:N: so from the point of view of Wikipedia navigation, this is not useful as it stands. This is an encyclopaedia not a directory such as, e.g. [http://www.zoominfo.com/s/#!search/profile/person?personId=2062188713&targetid=profile zoominfo.com]. Since there is no encyclopaedic content on this person, it's reasonable to suggest deletion.
::I agree it would have made sense to talk to you first as the creator of the redirect, but since you get the notification of listing anyway, it's no big deal. Si Trew (talk) 05:54, 1 August 2015 (UTC)
:::{{replyto|SimonTrew}} - The first three words in the Liam Lynch article are "William Patrick Niederst". To state the obvious, "Bill" is a variant of "William". There are no notable people named "Bill Niederst" other than the one we're talking about, so I'm not sure how WP:SURPRISE is relevant here.
:::If someone wants to create a redirect at William Niederst or William Patrick Niederst, have at it. It's been 8 or so years since I created the redirect, and I'm guessing that Mr. Lynch was known among his friends as "Bill" rather than "William". But that's just a guess; I've never met him or spoken to him. -- John Broughton (♫♫) 19:01, 1 August 2015 (UTC)
::::As you say, that's just an unsourced guess. MOS:BOLDTITLE says "If an article's title is a formal or widely accepted name for the subject, display it in bold as early as possible in the first sentence", so Liam Lynch should appear before his real name. As for William vs Bill, it is not necessarily obvious to a WP:WORLDWIDE audience for whom English may not be a first language: at least, "Bill" should appear in the name, c.f. Buffalo Bill or Bill Bryson. Si Trew (talk) 03:44, 2 August 2015 (UTC) Si Trew (talk) 03:40, 2 August 2015 (UTC)
::::::Looking at the [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Liam_Lynch_%28musician%29&diff=137532050&oldid=135600859 last time I edited the article], in 2007, the name, at the time, was "Bill Niederst", not William, and the name was, as you point out it should be, not the initial words in the article.

::::::As for the core issue, I think that it is sufficiently documented that Liam Lynch's original last name was Niederst.

- Keep. That's his name. The article could make it a little clearer, but the first words in the article are "William Patrick Niederst" and Bill is a common nickname for William. -- Tavix (talk) 15:19, 7 August 2015 (UTC)
- Keep We don't typically create redirects from short names that the person doesn't actually use, e.g. Bill Wheaton (Wil Wheaton).

Delete as an implausible misspelling. The German-to-English rule of respelling "ü" as "ue" doesn't apply to a heavy metal umlaut because it isn't actually German. -- Tavix (talk) 07:35, 31 July 2015 (UTC)
- Delete, as WP:RFD#D5 nonsense, per Tavix. I'd argue that since none of marks on these letters is really an umlaut (linguistics), calling them so is technically wrong, but of course Metal umlaut is its WP:COMMONNAME so that of itself is fine, but these are stretching it a bit.
:We don't have Mëtäl ümläüt, nor Heävy metäl ümläüt (for which the first one would be the transliteration), but we do have {{no redirect|Heavy metal ümlaut}}, {{no redirect|Röckdöts}}, {{no redirect|Röckdöt}} and {{no redirect|Röck döts}} for the others respectively: these also all go to Metal umlaut.
:{{tlx|R from title with diacritics}} is inappropriate in these cases since they are not the exact same title as required (or at least recommended) when using those templates.

- Comment. {{no redirect|Heavy metal ümlaut}} is less clear-cut: The word umlaut does not actually have an umlaut on the U, even in German, but I can see it being a common misspelling of "umlaut" rather than of itself intended to mean the metal umlaut.

Refine to Negaraku#Proposed renaming where this is now mentioned and sourced. (Malaysiaku was already mentioned there, it just didn't mention that means "My Malaysia" in English.

Possibly retarget to iiNet, as I couldn't think of any other possibility, there are several other non-notable topics by that name. - TheChampionMan1234 02:59, 31 July 2015 (UTC)
- Create a disambiguation page i-net and iNet are synonyms for "internet", however, we also have topics inet, INET, Inet TV, INET (Megaranger), for which we are missing a disambiguation page -- 67.70.32.190 (talk) 06:04, 31 July 2015 (UTC)
- Procedural close, please, since there were no links in article space (and only a few in user space plus this discussion of course) I've WP:BOLDly converted this into a DAB with the entries as suggested, so it is no longer a redirect. I've also added a hatnote at Inet (but not at any others). I am sure other entries could be added to the DAB, but it's a start. Si Trew (talk) 07:48, 31 July 2015 (UTC)

I'm concerned that this is misleading. In a sense, any article is or contains a summary of the topic. So a reader specifically searching for this term may be looking for something more specific, along the lines of the excellent Introduction to evolution.
There are [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special%3APrefixIndex&prefix=Summary+of&namespace=0 other redirects like this], but I'm not going to review them all right now. {{no redirect|Summary of 6teen episodes}} seems fine since the target contains summaries of episodes, but many others, I suspect, have the same problem as the Trojan War one. BDD (talk) 02:37, 22 July 2015 (UTC)
- If there were an Outline of the Trojan War as there is for some topics, this would be a good redirect to it. That's currently a redlink, and beyond my skill to create. Weak keep, I think, in the sense that the lede of any article is meant to be a summary of the topic, and Trojan War has a decent one. I also see BDD's point about it being misleading, but I think it's not particularly harmful. Ivanvector 🍁 (talk) 15:25, 22 July 2015 (UTC)

- Delete. This was converted from a stub to a redirect one minute after it was created on 6 October 2008, so the chances of external links are vanishingly small. It probably should have been deleted then, but hey-ho. Hits are well below noise level (about one every two days) and no internal links except related to this discussion. No significant edit history. Does not meet WP:TITLECAPS. We don't have Summary of Trojan War, Summary of the trojan war or Summary of the Trojan War. I think Ivanvector's point about having an outline article is good, but then this should be deleted per WP:REDLINK, to encourage its creation. Si Trew (talk) 09:07, 31 July 2015 (UTC)

- Weak retarget to Cha Sang-hae, although deletion would be the more obvious thing to do. - TheChampionMan1234 00:02, 24 July 2015 (UTC)
- Comment Sanghae is also an alternative name of Dongmyeong of Goguryeo. 58.176.246.42 (talk) 14:22, 24 July 2015 (UTC)
- Comment: 58.176 is probably on to something there. My search is showing that this might be an honorific or a diminutive in Korean, as I'm finding many Korean actors who have played roles with Sanghae in the name, as though it's a modifier and not a real name. I've also found [http://klawguru.com/2013/09/22/pokhaeng-vs-sanghae/ this] which is a discussion of the Korean crime "sanghae" which is essentially "inflicting bodily injury", but I don't think redirecting to a legal topic would be appropriate per WP:FORRED. In the case of Cha Sang-hae, unless he is known just by "Sanghae" then this wouldn't work. Ivanvector 🍁 (talk) 15:32, 24 July 2015 (UTC)
- Sanghae is just an ordinary name, no special honorific meaning [http://dic.naver.com/search.nhn?dicQuery=%EC%83%81%ED%95%B4&x=0&y=0&query=%EC%83%81%ED%95%B4&target=dic&ie=utf8&query_utf=&isOnlyViewEE=]. I'm not a big fan of redirecting names to random people who have that name, but it's a losing battle; there's thousands of {{tl|R from given name}}s. On the other hand, when there's more than one person with the same given name, there's usually a WP:SETINDEX for all the people with that name, which I think is reasonable. There's even a whole WikiProject devoted to maintaining them: WP:ANTHROPONYMY. 58.176.246.42 (talk) 16:01, 24 July 2015 (UTC)
- Retarget to Dongmyeong of Goguryeo, the only person in English Wikipedia who is known mononymously (even if only alternatively) as Sanghae. If Wikipedia gets more people named Sanghae in the future, then perhaps Sanghae could become a {{tl|given name}} WP:SETINDEX. But since there's only one other person in Wikipedia right now, and Sanghae isn't one of the list of the most popular given names in South Korea, the name doesn't seem to need a set index page right now. 58.176.246.42 (talk) 03:49, 30 July 2015 (UTC)

- Weak keep "Beiching" as a {{tl|R from mispelling}} of the Wade-Giles form (swapping the P for a B) -- 67.70.32.190 (talk) 16:13, 23 July 2015 (UTC)
- Question As discussed above, Namgyeong ("Southern Capital") is an old name for Seoul; was Bukgyeong ("Northern Capital") ever an alternative name for some {{c|former capitals of Korea}}?

- Delete both per WP:RFD#D8. Sideways713 (talk) 19:06, 23 July 2015 (UTC)
- Retarget both to Gyeongju per the RFD on Donggyeong. These should all be consistent with each other. Tonggyong is North Korean style McCune-Reischauer without diacritics, and Tongkyong is a common misspelling of Tonggyong seen even in printed sources [https://books.google.com/books?id=C4Q0AAAAIAAJ&q=%22tongkyong%22]. 58.176.246.42 (talk) 07:22, 30 July 2015 (UTC)

May not be a reasonable redirect, as the page's name is an adjective that can reasonably be construed to have other meanings, and is not specific to the redirect target. MopSeeker FoxThree! 00:45, 31 July 2015 (UTC)
- Disambiguate. (I am the redirect's creator.) I drafted the disambiguation page below the redirect after I realized that all current incoming links refer to a non-existent article called Jumpy (play). Steel1943 (talk) 00:52, 31 July 2015 (UTC)
:*I mean seriously, can this discussion be closed? (WP:IAR?) This redirect was nominated a mere minute or two after I created it. I didn't even have time to realize that I made a mistake. Steel1943 (talk) 00:56, 31 July 2015 (UTC)
