to Wikipedia:No personal attacks. Unlike in the last discussion, there does not exist consensus to delete and some appetite for an XNR to the appropriate project page. -- Tavix (talk) 22:00, 27 November 2020 (UTC)

This redirect was speedily deleted, but Wikipedia:Deletion review/Log/2020 October 29 decided to refer it to RfD instead. This is a procedural nomination, I am neutral. Sandstein 08:51, 7 November 2020 (UTC)
- Keep as a soft redirect to project space, which seems appropriate (it is not a redirect to wikt). Shhhnotsoloud (talk) 09:47, 7 November 2020 (UTC)
- The current target is a soft redirect, which suggests that anyone reading it clicks on the link to WP:No personal attacks. That strikes me as a better target. Narky Blert (talk) 14:32, 7 November 2020 (UTC)
Retarget to WP:NPA (well, WP:No personal attacks, but you get the gist). ItsPugle (please ping on reply) 23:17, 7 November 2020 (UTC)
:Hard redirect to WP:No personal attacks. Although I know it's cross-namespace, there doesn't seem to be any other reasonable destination or a real-world subject. I also feel as though the fact that it's so fundamental and central to Wikipedia, that it's worth being cross-namespace. Also having a look at the inwards links, it seems pretty obvious that it's a simple error for talk pages trying to link to WP:NPA. ItsPugle (please ping on reply) 07:57, 9 November 2020 (UTC)
- Hey, {{ping|Sandstein|p=,}} what's going on here? This currently points to Wikipedia:No personal attacks, and as far as I can tell, has never been a Wiktionary redirect. Also, this page has been deleted multiple times, and it looks like all the revisions were restored instead of just the 2020 ones. - Eureka Lott 00:36, 8 November 2020 (UTC)
:*No idea what's going on with this page. I'm just implementing what the DRV wants. Sandstein 21:20, 9 November 2020 (UTC)
:* Restoring all the history enables people to see ... the history. Which informs debate. All the best: Rich Farmbrough 14:39, 17 November 2020 (UTC).
- Retarget to Wikipedia:No personal attacks, as this project page seems to be a better target. Seventyfiveyears (talk) 01:27, 8 November 2020 (UTC)
- Comment as Shhhnotsoloud said, I'd like to confirm that this page is not a redirect to Wiktionary; the template used to redirect to project space is a fork of the one used to redirect to Wiktionary, which may have caused confusion.

- Comment. Further to my !vote for a soft redirect above, and the following !votes by other editors for a retarget, I should say that I do object to a straightforward retarget, which would be an unnecessary and undesirable cross-namespace redirect. Shhhnotsoloud (talk) 17:35, 8 November 2020 (UTC)
- We should probably decide what to do with policy/guideline XNRs. I think that they are in general useful but they might be WP:COSTLY. A compromise would be to redirect them to an article about Wikipedia such as Articles for deletion should probably redirect to Deletionism and inclusionism in Wikipedia (since its discussed there) and on a related note we do have the likes of Biographies of living persons redirecting to Biography and Village pump redirecting to Well. "No personal attacks" only returns 3 other articles (other than the current redirect) one of which being Common Knowledge?#Wikipedia in Short where it is a reference to Wikipedia so this could redirect there until/if something is added to a more specific Wikipedia related article.
