This term has multiple domain-specific meanings in Arabic, but in current use for non-Muslims it is a slur. A literal equivalent of "non-Muslim" is used in mainstream discourse instead. This is like redirecting "black people" to the N-word. Just because the term was once commonly used in this way and is still being used in this way in some quarters doesn't mean that it's acceptable to equate the two in an encyclopedia.

  • Delete per nom. -- Notecardforfree (talk) 20:43, 3 January 2016 (UTC)
  • Delete as there are a lot of things a non-Muslim can be called (very ambiguous redirect) but obviously the current redirect is unacceptable as "kafir" is a pejorative. TheAstuteObserver (talk) 08:15, 4 January 2016 (UTC)
  • Delete per {{ul|Gaijin42}} in the previous discussion. Kafir is a term used in Islamic doctrine (and apparently conversation?) to refer in a derogatory sense to someone who does not follow Islam, but non-Muslim is a bland generic term for all things that are not Muslim. These two terms don't match. Ivanvector 🍁 (talk) 16:23, 5 January 2016 (UTC)

:: In Islamic theology the term refers broadly to "unbelief" and related notions and it has been elaborated in various ways in application to both Muslims and non-Muslims. It is certainly used by some in everyday conversation as a derogatory term for non-Muslims. Eperoton (talk) 16:57, 5 January 2016 (UTC)

  • Comment. I think the ideal solution here would be a short page with a very brief (1 short sentence) definition, a link to Approval and a link to Wikt:disaproval. I'm not sure that this would survive as a dab page though and would be deleted by the folks who maintain dab pages in a rigid format. That would leave us with a redlink here, which is less useful than either of the proposed targets. Thryduulf (talk) 21:07, 3 January 2016 (UTC)

This is one of thousands of similar redirects to hangul, which is a rather unhelpful target: it doesn't actually mention those redirects.

  • The overwhelming majority are nonsense syllables like the one I nominated: not real words, have not ever been used in Korean, and show up on the internet only as mojibake and in lists of Unicode codepoints
  • A minority (e.g. 없) are real Korean morphemes or words but those words aren't specific to Korean culture so there's no obvious Wikipedia target for the meaning.
  • An even smaller minority are real words with obvious Wikipedia targets (e.g. 이 → Lee (Korean surname)), point to Latin-alphabet disambiguation pages consisting mostly of Korean-related topics (e.g. 정 → Jeong), or are disambiguation pages themselves (e.g. 김).
  • There's also a whole bunch of syllables which don't have redirects, e.g. 청.

I'm not entirely opposed to deleting these, but in the discussion three years ago there was some mention of the idea that all Unicode codepoints are likely search terms and should point somewhere. In the case of the nonsense syllables, there's only two better targets: hangul consonant and vowel tables (which explains how they're theoretically pronounced - but only if you know which of the collapse boxes to open, you can't use Ctrl+F to find it) and Hangul Syllables (which has an uncollapsed a table listing everything in the Unicode Block, but it tells you only the codepoint and no other information). Which one do you all think is better? 210.6.254.106 (talk) 12:56, 3 January 2016 (UTC)

  • Comment I agree with the notion that "all Unicode codepoints are likely search terms and should point somewhere" (it may have been me that expressed it, I haven't checked). In the specific case I think that at present hangul consonant and vowel tables is marginally more useful, but I'd really rather that article be split into more specific sub-articles that are more useful for non-Korean speakers. At that point the redirect targets could be changed to the more specific location. Thryduulf (talk) 21:16, 3 January 2016 (UTC)
  • As a stopgap solution, we could uncollapse the tables at hangul consonant and vowel tables; I don't feel like that would make the article too difficult to navigate (especially if we added section headers), though others might disagree. 210.6.254.106 (talk) 02:15, 4 January 2016 (UTC)

"Zhengyin" and "chaowen" are Chinese words written in pinyin. The target is unrelated to Chinese and is not called "zhengyin" or "chaowen" in Chinese anyway. There's no better target; a user who enters these strings is best served by seeing the search results & all the partial matches therein, which consist of topics which are actually related to Chinese. 210.6.254.106 (talk) 08:00, 3 January 2016 (UTC)

  • Delete "Chaowen" per nom or Very Weak Retarget to Chefchaouen which is also known as Chaouen as possible misspelling --Lenticel (talk) 00:50, 5 January 2016 (UTC)
  • Strong delete both.
  • My best interpretation is that Zhengyin and Chaowen are Pinyin transliterations of 朝文/조문 and 正音/정음 respectively. Both concepts are discussed in the target article, but the Pinyin romanisation scheme (a 20th-century Chinese invention) has no affinity to the Korean language, so they should be deleted along the lines of WP:RFOREIGN.
  • For both people named Zheng Yin, Zheng is surname and Yin is given name. All scholarly Chinese romanisation schemes separate surname and given name so it would at best be an {{tl|R from misspelling}} to Zheng Yin.
  • "Chaowen" is the given name of several Chinese people mentioned in other articles, so redirecting to Chefchaouen is less useful than letting readers see search results. Deryck C. 11:47, 7 January 2016 (UTC)

Non-existent title. Not a plausible misspelling, as the correct title is Baron MacLeod of Fuinary. The Traditionalist (talk) 03:27, 3 January 2016 (UTC)

  • delete. I wondered whether this was a pronunciation spelling of Fuinary, Highland Scottish place name pronunciations not necessarily being obvious to an English reader. I haven't been able to find any written references to how it is pronounced, but there is a folk tune, Farewell to Fuinary with several renditions on Youtube. In none of the videos I watched was "fuinary" pronounced as or approximating "fairy", rather something more like {{IPA|/ˈfjuː.ən.əe(ɹ).i/}} (FEW-in-air-ee). That's not conclusive obviously, as it could be distorted to fit the meter, but in the absence of anything supporting a "fairy" pronunciation, I'm recommending delete.

  • Could this be a pejorative? --BDD (talk) 16:17, 4 January 2016 (UTC)
  • That did cross my mind, but nothing in the article seems to suggest he is more or less likely than any other person to be described in that manner, and so it's worth looking to see if there is a reason to keep or delete for definite. If it is deleted it doesn't really matter if it was intended as a pejorative or not. Thryduulf (talk) 18:27, 4 January 2016 (UTC)
