Unused redirect; no incoming links. Beyond that, the redirect uses ahistorical terminology as "Russia" did not invade Poland; the Soviet Union did. K.e.coffman (talk) 23:44, 30 April 2019 (UTC)
- Keep very many people use "Russia" to mean "Soviet Union" and so if "Soviet-occupied Eastern Poland" would be a useful search term (and I think it is) then this is too. A lack of incomming internal links is not a reason to delete a redirect - redirects from incorrect titles should have no incoming internal links. Thryduulf (talk) 00:52, 1 May 2019 (UTC)
- Delete. Indeed, Russia did not invade Eastern Poland in WWII. -- Tavix (talk) 01:28, 1 May 2019 (UTC)
::That depends on whether or not you count the former SFSR as Russia. Geolodus (talk) 10:47, 1 May 2019 (UTC)
:::SFSR wasn't the polity that occupied Poland though—the USSR was. -- Tavix (talk) 19:56, 1 May 2019 (UTC)

- Keep as "Russia" or "Soviet Russia" is frequently used when referring to the Soviet Union. Rubbish computer (Talk: Contribs) 09:24, 1 May 2019 (UTC)
- Weak Keep as creator. This had been a redlink in the bio of Chiune Sugihara,[https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Chiune_Sugihara&oldid=702195219] which has since been changed to use the more common "Soviet" terminology, but since redirects are cheap and the terms are practically synonymous, I don't see much reason to doubt it might be used again in an incidental fashion in some future article. -- Kendrick7talk 14:11, 1 May 2019 (UTC)
- Keep Cant really add much hat has not been said.Slatersteven (talk) 14:51, 1 May 2019 (UTC)
- Keep per the others, particularly Rubbish computer. I'd leaned toward delete when I saw this yesterday, but the "frequently used" argument is convincing. "In America, there is plenty of light beer and you can always find a party. In Russia, Party always finds you" dates from 1985, when the USSR still existed. Nyttend (talk) 03:27, 2 May 2019 (UTC)
