The result of the discussion was deprecate. @GoldRingChip and BrownHairedGirl: Please go ahead with the bot job. Once all uses of this template redirect are deprecated, please come back to me (or another admin) for a WP:G6 technical deletion. Deryck C. 14:31, 26 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Category elections by year → Template:Category U.S. State elections by year (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

Highly misleading redirect to Template:Category U.S. State elections by year. The template was created at this name on 5 March 2013, but was moved[1] the following day to its present stable title.
There are about 6,000 uses of the old title, which will need to be changed by a bot. But this trivial bot job will stop the ambiguous title being mistakenly used on categories for elections other than those in US states. If there is consensus to do this, a request at WP:BOTREQ will have it done easily. BrownHairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 22:50, 18 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

An interesting situation. I was the editor who redirected it in 2013. It looks like all uses of the template's old name are used for US states. I will suggest (at WP:BOTREQ) that this task be done. I suspect there would be little or no objection to the request. —GoldRingChip 02:37, 19 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Pig (language) → Apache Pig (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

Here "language" means "programming language"; the target, however, is not a language but a software platfrom (its language apparently called Pig Latin). And there's also the proper Pig Latin, which one could imagine as a possible target of this redirect. So there are two potential targets, the redirect isn't a correct name in either case, and it's quite awkward in both, so deletion seems best per WP:XY. Noting that retargeting to Pig (disambiguation) isn't an option as at least one of the two articles doesn't belong there.) – Uanfala (talk) 18:47, 18 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

No objection from me. --a3nm (talk) 18:51, 18 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. I agree that since there isn't a language called Pig, this redirect might cause confusion. Shhhnotsoloud (talk) 18:27, 19 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Harry p → Harry Potter (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

Too vague. The series is not referred to as "Harry p", nor is anything else. Xezbeth (talk) 07:01, 18 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Delete google shows no primary topic for this search term, the results are font, a Harry Potter fan fiction archive, a post on a tripadvisor messageboard by someone signing as "Harry P.", Harry P. Guy (a ragtime composer), Harry P. O'Neill (US representative from Pennsylvania), Harry P. Cain (US Senator from Washington), Harry P. Hatry (academic with no wikipedia article), Harry P. Koulos (lawyer with no article), and Harry P. Leu Gardens (house and gardens in Orlando donated by Harry P. Leu and his wife). Not suitable in the slightest for a dab page.

Well apparently according to this there is a character named Shane Warwick ..... the character appeared in one episode .... so the chances of him ever being remembered for 1 minor role in one episode out of 200 is slim to none, Thanks, –Davey2010^Talk 02:40, 18 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
