The only John mentioned at the target is a competitor of Crapper's, John Bolding. I would suggest deletion unless a justification can be provided. signed, Rosguill talk 23:49, 18 December 2019 (UTC)
:The redirect is in reference to a common misconception that the inventor of the flush toilet was "John Crapper." https://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=%22john%20crapper%22 People might reasonably enter the name "John Crapper" into Wikipedia, and should be properly redirected to the actual basis of this legend, Sir Thomas Crapper. פֿינצטערניש (Fintsternish), she/her (talk) 23:53, 18 December 2019 (UTC)
- Keep per פֿינצטערניש. There is apparently a popular misconception that Mr Crapper's first name was John, and there aren't any other John Crappers mentioned on Wikipedia. – Uanfala (talk) 16:49, 29 December 2019 (UTC)
