Gender and Sexual Minorities

[edit]

The following is an archived discussion concerning one or more redirects. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on an appropriate discussion page (such as the redirect's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this section.
The result of the discussion was no consensus. Editors were divided between retarget proposals, keep, and delete. signed, Rosguill talk 20:04, 24 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

While the term usually refers to LGBT people, I think Sexual minority is probably a better redirect (and probably should be lowercase) Bangalamania (talk) 02:14, 18 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: Just had a look and there seem to be a lot of similar redirects using the GSM acronym or similar to link to LGBT. --Bangalamania (talk) 02:15, 18 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment: As is, Sexual minority (SM) seems to have been experiencing an identity crisis since 2015, when GSM and its variants were first introduced to the article. Here's a diff comparing that first edit to the current revision. Much has been added about sexual minorities and almost none about GSM. LGBT discusses the origin of the term GSM and some modern usage, but SM does not. Then again, LGBT gives SM "main article" treatment in its GSM section. In the SM controversy section, one of the major criticisms of the term sexual minority is from gender minorities, and no mention is made of the GSM term at all. These are all fixable problems, but it seems there are at least two possible fixes:
    • Add more about GSM to the SM article, possibly enough so that there should be a move or split to Gender and Sexual Minorities, or
    • Keep SM about its titular topic and keep LGBT as both the repository of GSM info and the target of this redirect.
    Two key questions for deciding between the options are "Is there enough verifiable content out there to justify a standalone GSM article?" and "How would we prevent a GSM article from being a content fork of LGBT?" Firefangledfeathers (talk) 03:05, 18 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
My preference would be the first option (as you say, the LGBT article does say that SM is the main article on the subject, and the term does have a broader scope than LGBT(QIAP+) – and intentionally so), although I am aware that the term "gender and sexual minorities" or its variants may not have wide enough currency in reliable sources to justify a change in the article's title, and I'm not sure how much content there is to justify a separate article. It is worth noting that the criticism from trans/gender minority groups seems to be unreferenced.
Possibly adding to the confusion here, but articles on sexual minorities in specific countries on Wikipedia (Sexual minorities in Sri Lanka, Sexual minorities in Japan) seem to use the term to refer to trans people too, although both of these countries are non-Western and so may have different ways of categorising gender and sexuality. --Bangalamania (talk) 13:24, 18 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
As yet another confusion, "sexual minority"/"sexual minor" can refer to someone/the state of being below the age of consent for sexual activity. Thryduulf (talk) 15:09, 18 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete per WP:XY and WP:RFD#D1. "Gender minority" and "sexual minority" describe related, but distinct, topics. Ivanvector's squirrel (trees/nuts) 15:28, 18 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Retarget to sexual minority. I see that scholarly work on this topic often refers to "sexual and gender minority" rather than the arrangement here, and while we don't have a redirect for that arrangement, it is listed as an alternate name for the study of the topic covered by the sexual minority article. Ivanvector's squirrel (trees/nuts) 13:29, 19 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete This redirect is not currently being used in articles according to Special:WhatLinksHere/Gender_and_Sexual_Minorities. Also, we have no identified sources establishing this as a term or phrase in use. Without citations and without usage I say delete without redirect. Blue Rasberry (talk) 23:17, 19 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    we have no identified sources. Except for all the Google Books/Scholar references that Thryduulf mentioned... -- Tamzin (she/they, no pref.) | o toki tawa mi. 00:44, 26 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. The lede of sexual minority notes that it primarily refers to "LGB" individuals. The inclusion of "gender" here is important, as it extends the term to transgender and other non-cisgender/non-gender-conforming people. This is a term in current usage in the LGBTQ+ community, and I've only ever heard it used as a synonym for LGBT(Q)(+). Also, procedural note: Gender and Sexual Minority exists, redirecting to the same target. I hesitate to list it when two people have already !voted, but as a common-sense matter, the close here should probably apply to it as well. -- Tamzin (she/they, no pref.) | o toki tawa mi. 00:44, 26 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete very likely to cause confusion. Not sure what a moue is, but if that's what someone is looking for they will be very confused when they wind up at mouse. Not a common misspelling that we should redirect. Wug·a·po·des 21:51, 12 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Sea trade route

[edit]

The following is an archived discussion concerning one or more redirects. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on an appropriate discussion page (such as the redirect's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this section.
The result of the discussion was redirect 1, 2, 3 to Sea lane and 4,5 and 6 to Maritime transport..

Consensus could have been firmer on the latter, but after two relists I think that this is as close as we can expect to occur, and no one has exppressed support for the status quo signed, Rosguill talk 20:03, 24 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not sure that sea trade routes were exclusive to Kedah. ‑‑Neveselbert (talk · contribs · email) 21:50, 26 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • 1, 2, & 3 to Sea lane. While I agree that the Sea lane article is undeveloped, it seems to be the best fit, and I would hope that this discussion would encourage that development, rather than more carping. On the other hand,I agree with OBSIDIAN in that I see no role for Maritime transport as a target here. Sea lane correctly has Trade route as a see also entry. As to the last three (4, 5, & 6) trade items, I believe they are correct as is (given current articles), but are a very separate discussion. A comprehensive article on Sea trade aka Maritime trade is clearly called for. The Maritime history article is extensive, but does not focus on trade, although, other than fishing, trade (and those who prey on trade) seems to have been the major focus of peacetime maritime activities. Development of a focused Maritime trade article could be assisted by books like A history of early Southeast Asia: maritime trade and societal development, 100-1500; Rome and India: the ancient sea trade; Sánchez's Merchants and trade networks in the Atlantic and the Mediterranean, 1550-1800 connectors of commercial maritime systems; The emporium of the world: maritime Quanzhou, 1000-1400; Emporia, commodities and entrepreneurs in Asian maritime trade, c. 1400-1750; Sewell's Grain: carriage by sea; International shipping: an introduction to the policies, politics, and institutions of the maritime world; Reeves's A history of the law of shipping and navigation and Rivalry for trade in tea and textiles: the English and Dutch East India Companies (1700-1800). Fugazza's Maritime connectivity and trade covering 2006-2012 would provide a recent perspective.  --Bejnar (talk) 21:26, 30 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    • @Bejnar: I'd like to point out that only your redirect linked to Sea lane, and it is the only one of the entries that do not have the word "trade" in it, and thus it's an outlier. None of the alternative names for "Sea lane" also contain the word "trade". All the redirects were created by different people, yet three originally linked to Trade route (including mine), which is a pretty good indication of what the consensus of the context is. To put it simply: A sea lane, is not only used for trading. A trade route is. If a disambiguation is not viable, I'd actually rather go with all of them to Trade route, except Sea route. I would also like to emphatically stress that I'm not carping, haha. -- OBSIDIANSOUL 01:22, 31 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Relisting comment: More discussion is required primarily for #4, #5, and #6. There seems to be a consensus to point #1, #2, and #3 to Sea lane.

The result of the discussion was delete. Looks like the main topic(s) do not have article(s) yet, so deleting to encourage creation (and later disambig, should all go well) Nabla (talk) 13:48, 20 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Implausible search term, mainly a typo for "Oulu". Created twelve years ago by a user who was since blocked indefinitely for vandalism. The redirect had only four incoming links, three for the city of Oulu and one for an entirely unrelated Tatar ruler. I have fixed them all. I propose to delete this.

The redirect U$c was deleted for a similar reason. This redirect should also be deleted, the same reasons apply. ✌️ The owner of all 🗸 18:56, 4 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

The nominator doesn't provide a reason for deletion. Can you please clarify? ElKevbo (talk) 23:51, 4 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
I think the nom was saying it does not have a mention in the target article. If the result is keep then it should have an R without mention tag. AngusW🐶🐶F (barksniff) 04:44, 5 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep A redirect should point to the article that the user is expecting to get to. If someone types "U$C", it is extremely likely that they are looking for University of Southern California. For that matter, Micro$oft and $ony should be retargeted to Microsoft and Sony, as those are the articles that someone who types that in is likely looking for. Mlb96 (talk) 01:23, 13 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    How do we know that the current target is what users are most likely expecting? Google search refuses to distinguish between "U$C" and similar strings like "U/C" and "U-C", the former of which is so prevalent it overwhelms everything else on a normal search, "U-C" is similar in a books search. On Wikipedia's search engine the same thing happens, but here it's "U.C" that gets in the way. No method of getting around it I've thought of has worked - quotation marks, "verbatim" setting, doubling the $, backslash escaping, etc. all either make no difference or find results instead for "UC", "c/u", "U.S.C." or other irrelevant things. Thryduulf (talk) 02:21, 13 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. Why would anyone looking for (whatever) USC type U$C instead? Even in the unlikely chance that they do (in hope that there is an atual article maybe?) and they get nothing, aren't they more likely to know what to search, USC included, than any of our guesses. We do not need to redirect any conceivable or ever used string, if it ain't obvious, delete. - Nabla (talk) 13:44, 20 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Recently created article Andrea Di Giovanni (with capital “D”), so I propose deleting the redirect page (with lowercase “d”). The new article is based on the musician’s common name, and has a hat note to help direct to Andrea da Firenze. I’m listing it here instead of requesting speedy deletion because I’m aware changing the primary topic for “Andrea (D/d)i Giovanni may be controversial.
