RFC for a retargeting of this redirect

TLDR: should this redirect Nazis be retargeted to Nazi Party instead of its present destination, Nazism?

As of writing, there are 2 other redirects that are of interest and relating to this, which is Nazi (currently targeting to the Nazism ideology), and The Nazis (which targets to the Nazi Party). I agree that for the former two, these are the best options save for maybe making Nazi a disambiguation, but that's beyond the point of this RFC.

Presently, this redirect also targets to the Nazism ideology, however, it's difficult for Nazis plural to be able to refer to the Nazism ideology in common conversation. If I say "Nazis" in a discussion, I'm most frequently referring to either the regime/party/Third Reich, or neo-Nazi movements/participants. Based on this, I don't believe that "Nazis" plural as a redirect should target to the ideology but rather the party, as modern proponents of the ideology and party are designated as "neo-Nazis" rather than "Nazis" on WP. I believe a reader looking for information on Neo-Nazism would type neo-Nazism or related terms in the search box. A person typing "Nazis" would expect to find the regime, not the ideology.

I understand some editors would suggest I WP:JUSTDOIT, but given the high amount of controversy surrounding almost anything to do with the regime, the ideology, and the party, I think we should put this up for an RFC first given the drastic impact this could have.

@InvadingInvader: I'm pulling this RfC per WP:RFCNOT, because this is a WP:RFD matter. --Redrose64 🌹 (talk) 19:44, 12 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

OK Thanks for the clarification. My bad! InvadingInvader (userpage, talk) 21:06, 12 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
