(eubot). That's a bit half-and-half. It is of course marked as R from dias but there are no dias in the target, anyway.... It could be {{tlx|r from other language|ar|en}} but I would say a Weak delete. Si Trew (talk) 00:41, 22 April 2017 (UTC)
- I presume (eubot) is supposed to mean this is some sort of mistake by user:eubot (a bot)? I wish Si Trew was clearer... It looks like one. *If* kept the correct template seems to be {{tlx|r from other language|pt|en}} (pt, Portuguese; not ar, Arabic). It could be kept, because Portuguese is a official language in Macau. But I doubt we need such redirects, having the original official language names - in this case Portuguese and Mandarin(?) - in the article and letting the search engine find it should be enough. I'll add it next. See the [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=A-Ma_Temple&diff=776898070&oldid=776612301 diff], the Portuguese name ("Templo de A-Má" with a diacritic, which might explain the bots mixup) was already there but it had a wrong parameter name. So, weak delete. - Nabla (talk) 00:33, 24 April 2017 (UTC)
::Sorry, User:Nabla, because I list so many going through these stupid or not-so-stupid Eubot redirects I have to be quick in listing (I am not a bot) or we should never get done. I mean by (eubot) to give an indication that this comes from an enormous set of lists, totalling roughly thirty thousand, created by User:Eubot back in 2008.
::For comparison, see WP:X1 for User:Neelix bur we haven't these concessions here, but if I may give you a standard kinda stupidity redirect from Neelix not Eubot, the deleted {{-r|Greenisholives}}.
::So sincerely excuse me for going quickly, if anything I am normally told off for being too verbose, but I sift, and along the way I think, I do WP:BEFORE, I keep a lot, and when I am not sure I list them at RfD because that is the only mechanism currently at RfD for me or anyone else to take some of the more stupid User:Eubot redirects out. On this one I was not sure, because I could se the Arabic, "A-Ma", and then the "Temple" being not very Arabic, and not very Portuguese, and so thought it was all a bit WP:NONSENSE really to put the three together (from {{-r|Templo de A-Ma}}, which I forgot to say).
::They get you like that sometimes, you forget what language they were even intended to be, though I do check internally within Wikipedia, on a lot of occasions all roads lead back to Rome or maybe Lisbon. At that point I list, although having my wrist slapped, because my jjob as I see it is to sift and sort and say delete, keep, (very occasionally) boldly retarget. I cannot be expected, in my reasonable view, to find out it was used somewhere on Facebook once. (Not by you) and then say "oh, keep it then." I deliberately' do not look up any cultural backgrounds, languages etc of other editors because that would prejudice my going through these language redirects.
::You asked for a longer answer, you got it :) Strongly delete. Now four different tongues in the sausage. Si Trew (talk) 05:46, 25 April 2017 (UTC)
:::I just checked in my copy of English as She is Spoke. Apparently it is Portuguese. Not Arabic after all. :) Si Trew (talk) 05:51, 25 April 2017 (UTC)
:::I lookedup your user page after I wrote that. I ususally wouldn't. It's good to have a Portuguese speaker here at RfD, because we haven't any others. I would not have recognised that as portuguese, at all (and I speak other Latinate languages. But most from Eubot are well I think actually this is the first I have found that has had a vague stab at Portuguese.) Si Trew (talk) 05:57, 25 April 2017 (UTC)

::Nothing in the article says that Macau is in China. I may have been influenced a little by listening to a very interesting programme as always, Word of Mouth, rebroadcast on the BBC World Service at about 3am this morning, at which the topic today was the names people give to other geographical areas, I listed this well before that but made me wonder. A few experts together in a quiet talk saying something they know about. There was some very quiet disagreement of why America was called America. The general consensus among the experts is that "-ia" is just what we call countries because, I am putting words in their mouths, it adds legitimacy, makes it a country. Fascinating programme, my toy monkey and I much enjoyed it. I recommed it to you. After that we had More for Less, which even though I can do graphs is explained in such a simple way. Ir ia very aoporific the BBC world service at that time of night. They slpped and said in Britain it is six minutes past three; I am only an hour ahead. They usually say "on this hour". Gone are the days of Lillibullero and "Twenty-three hundred hours Greenwich Mean Time". Gone are the days of the Radio 4 UK Theme, written by a German. Fritzs Spiegl. I suppose we have to modernise bt WP:IDONTLIKEIT. I like that tens of thousands of editors can give, and tens of billions of readers can take, the knowledge of this project Jmbo started. It will never be finished. But we can make it better, other people run marathons. I edit Wikipedia. I can't run a marathon, I can't run a bath without getting out of breadth. But I can add my knowledge and learning to Wikipedia. I cam't to the fiddles on articles any more, it takes me ages to get from my head to my fingers and I make mistakes, but I can stilll say no this is what it is. It is in my head it is just hard to get it to the keys right now. I don't want to put this on my edit page etc because it's too hard and I want regulars at RfD to know that, not I can't fiddle with RS and click of mouses and have seventeen tabs open. I can do the Eubot R's and let me do those, I can get those done. My bones hurt my back hurts i cough up blood my wife wont let me go to a hospital. My wife wont evem semd me any money to go to a hospital or the insurance details to do so but I would not get there without her and she is in salsyburg having her new career. So please excuse me for listing these eubot redirects but I am not sure how much energy is in me. I want to survive for a bit because the wife then gets an inheritance if i manage to survive a bit. I should not be saying this but you are my friends over the years. Please excuse lowercase it is not my style. 07:39, 25 April 2017 (UTC)
i do not have a phone or whatever she does not give me any money she can fix her teeth i have to work most of the time. to keep her in the manner she has become accomplished to. I am losing my words I know they are the wrong words accustomed to. Spending all my money. I am not stupid. I have lived in four different countries. She is a control freak and I am a depressive. It is not a good mix.

:::: (I collapsed the last section of your reply because it looks long and only tangentially related - I hope that is OK. If not, hey, it's a wiki, undo it :)
:::: The Portuguese part is only "Templo" (I guess the same exist is Spanish and maybe a few other Latin languages), "A-Má" is a Portuguese looking soundalike of the original Mandarin (?) name. (there surely is some technical name for that but I don't even know where to start looking for it :) Such a short word, I guess it looks like many things in many languages. - Nabla (talk) 13:05, 25 April 2017 (UTC)
