I think that this redirect should be deleted because: a. it is only linked to by one page, that being Sicherman dice; b. the link in Sicherman dice could easily be replaced with a pipe; c. it is not likely to be used anywhere else; and d. it is not a search term likely to be used to search for the target page (Dice) or the target section (Dice#Common_variations). If there is a reason we should keep this redirect, please tell me. (This is a similar situation to the previously deleted redirect page Strange rules.) TypoEater (talk) 23:53, 9 September 2023 (UTC)
:Well, in my view, "normal dice" most likely refers to "six-sided dice" which redirects to that section, where there is information on them. It does get [https://pageviews.wmcloud.org/?project=en.wikipedia.org&platform=all-access&agent=user&redirects=0&range=this-year&pages=Normal_dice fairly steady pageviews], as well, and the one link seems like a WP:NOTBROKEN issue (also, there are lots of redirects that aren't linked from anywhere because they can be used as search terms). So, overall, keep. Edward-Woodrow :)

- Keep - Edward-Woodrow covered the relevant points. - Darker Dreams (talk) 02:37, 18 September 2023 (UTC)
- Keep. I agree with {{u|Edward-Woodrow}}. I would not have created this redirect myself, but now that it is here, even if the likelihood of its being useful is low, it is possible, and there is nothing whatever to be gained by deleting it. I.e. WP:NOTBROKEN. JBW (talk) 19:04, 21 September 2023 (UTC)
