This is a template redirect, a shortcut intended to save typing during the large-scale project of adding short descriptions to ultimately all articles in Wikipedia. However, Gonnym appears not to like this shortcut and has removed the links to it from the project pages Short description and WikiProject Short descriptions. As a shortcut is of little value if no-one knows about it, should this template shortcut be kept (and the links reinstated), or deleted? : Bhunacat10 (talk), 10:59, 15 January 2019 (UTC)

  • Support deletion Seeing a trend the past few years of templates moving from short, unreadable titles, to clear full word/sentence titles, which I personally agree with, I see no value in having a template, which is used only once per page, be cryptic. If this were a template which was used a lot on the page, I could see some value in the arguments for it saving time, but since it is used only once, better for it to stay clear and let editors know what it is, without them needing to click the redirect. --Gonnym (talk) 11:10, 15 January 2019 (UTC)
  • Support deletion {{t|short description}} is clearer in the wikitext; only benefit would be to save typing but one should be using User:Galobtter/Shortdesc helper anyhow :) Galobtter (pingó mió) 11:27, 15 January 2019 (UTC)
  • Support deletion per Galobtter. · · · Peter Southwood (talk): 19:22, 15 January 2019 (UTC)
  • Please delete There is enough confusion about the strange squiggles at the top of many articles without adding another layer of obfuscation. A good example of useful obscurity is {{tl|dda}} which is a redirect to {{tl|death date and age}}; the shortcut is useful in tables listing dozens of people along with birth/death dates. However, {{tlf|death date and age}} should be used when it appears only once in an infobox. Johnuniq (talk) 21:51, 15 January 2019 (UTC)
  • Happy for this to go as we also have {{tlx|SHD}} and {{tlx|Short desc}}. (I hadn't known about these, as until yesterday they weren't categorised nor shown as shortcuts on the main template page). However, if "cryptic" shortcut templates in general are now to be deprecated, this deserves a general discussion and guidance not to make new ones: no-one has yet deleted other frequently used one-per-page template shortcuts such as {{tlx|Rip}} or {{tlx|Ccat}}: Bhunacat10 (talk), 11:34, 22 January 2019 (UTC)

Nokmim is the Hebrew word for "Avengers", it was the name of several Jewish partisan groups in Eastern Europe during the Holocaust, none of which were directly related to the later Nakam group that tried to get revenge. Delete per WP:REDLINK. Catrìona (talk) 19:00, 25 December 2018 (UTC)

:Looking at the interwikis, the Hebrew wiki link is for HaNokmim, "organized the final stages of World War II and thereafter" -- which would appear to be the relevant concept for this redirect. If User:Catrìona is correct that Nakam should be identified as a different concept, then a new item for it should be created on Wikidata, and the various current sitelinks be assigned to one or the other appropriately. It might be worth starting a new stub here (perhaps based on a translation of the he-wiki article), that these present redirects could be updated to point to. The subject does appear significant. Jheald (talk) 18:15, 26 December 2018 (UTC)

::{{ping|Jheald}} The hewiki article on "HaNokmim" actually discusses two separate groups, Nakam and Tilhas Tizig Gesheften, both of which already have enwiki articles. A dab page is a possible solution, but the phrase "(Jewish) Avengers" is probably too vague for a separate dab page from Avenger, considering that across history there are many Jews who have sought revenge for various offenses. And I don't think it would make sense to redirect "Jewish Avengers" or a Hebrew word for Avenger to that dab page, per Wikipedia:Redirects from foreign languages. Catrìona (talk) 18:22, 26 December 2018 (UTC)

:::{{re|Catrìona}} So, probably makes sense to create a stub-dab at Nokmim (or at one of the terms being discussed), that would pick up incoming interwiki clicks and appropriately dab them. No opinion as to whether it would make sense to include a link from Avenger to that new page, but you may be right that it might be too niche a meaning. Jheald (talk) 18:35, 26 December 2018 (UTC)

::::I'm not sure it makes sense to keep Nokmim as stub or dab just for interwiki purposes: the Czech, German, Romanian and Spanish interwiki articles are all about Nakam itself. Besides, as stated above, Nokmim was the name of several Jewish partisan brigades during the Holocaust itself. Catrìona (talk) 18:55, 26 December 2018 (UTC)

  • Keep or disambiguate "Nokmim" and "Nokim"; disambiguate "Jewish avenger" or hatnote to Goel. The Modern Hebrew name for this group :he:הנוקמים transliterates to haNokmim (pl.), i.e. Nokmim (pl.) and Nok(i)m (sg.). If we don't have information about the other Nokmim on the English Wikipedia, then Nakam stands as the primary topic. If we do, a disambiguation page would be appropriate. As for "Jewish avenger", this can also refer to Goel (i.e. "avenger of blood") so disambiguation would be appropriate, whether by a standalone disambiguation page or by a hatnote.
