Metroid Prime: Dread
[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 keep. -- Tavix (talk) 19:10, 15 January 2018 (UTC)
- Metroid Prime: Dread → Metroid Dread (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
Delete per WP:CRYSTALBALL. Nothing indicates that Metroid Dread was ever part of the Prime series beyond a single supposed easter egg. ZXCVBNM (TALK) 23:33, 7 January 2018 (UTC)
- Keep as a version of the working title - Metroid Dread was referred to as "Metroid Prime: Dread" in EGM #194. Ben · Salvidrim! ✉ 23:47, 7 January 2018 (UTC)
- Is there proof it was actually a working title, or was that merely a typo, mistake or prediction on EGM's part? There is no source in the article itself that indicates that "Prime Dread" was based on new information and not merely a typo or prediction.ZXCVBNM (TALK) 00:39, 8 January 2018 (UTC)
- Keep It doesn't matter. Even a typo on EGM's part warrants a redirect (redirects are cheap). The redirect is also a plausible search term if someone can't remember the exact title (given the title of other games in the series). Again, redirects are cheap. — Insertcleverphrasehere (or here) 03:03, 8 January 2018 (UTC)

- Super Metroid plot → Super Metroid (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
Implausible redirect. Rarely gets more than 1 view. ZXCVBNM (TALK) 23:27, 7 January 2018 (UTC)
Delete- Basically any fictional thing ever created could potentially have a redirect going '[title] plot', but none of them are likely to be helpful. This should be just be deleted. CoffeeWithMarkets (talk) 16:16, 8 January 2018 (UTC)- On second thought, since we do have a section discussing the game's story-line, this is more of an ambiguous situation. I suppose I'm actually neutral. CoffeeWithMarkets (talk) 15:36, 10 January 2018 (UTC)
- Redirect to Super_Metroid#Plot. No harm in keeping this, since the target article does have plot section. ---- Patar knight - chat/contributions 20:00, 8 January 2018 (UTC)

Seems like a made-up neologism. Not mentioned in article and no valid targets for redirect. ZXCVBNM (TALK) 23:25, 7 January 2018 (UTC)
- Delete, too vague of a term to redirect to a specific series. —Xezbeth (talk) 08:10, 9 January 2018 (UTC)

- Dark Aether → Metroid Prime 2: Echoes (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
Redirect could create confusion with the mythological concept of aether due to being overly vague. Should be deleted and let the search function do its job. ZXCVBNM (TALK) 23:16, 7 January 2018 (UTC)
- Delete, too vague of a term to redirect to a specific series. —Xezbeth (talk) 08:10, 9 January 2018 (UTC)

Way too vague to redirect to Metroid Prime 2. Should be deleted to allow proper use of the search function. ZXCVBNM (TALK) 23:06, 7 January 2018 (UTC)
Delete. I think such a setting also exists in one of the The Legend of Zelda titles. Steel1943 (talk) 16:02, 8 January 2018 (UTC)- Striking out my vote. I have no opinion about the disambiguation page since I'm not sure about the subjects in the disambiguation page, so make me a "strong neutral". Steel1943 (talk) 20:41, 9 January 2018 (UTC)
- Triforce Heroes does, but you might be thinking of "City in the Sky" from Twilight Princess -- or a good old mythical Zelda hoax[3][[4]! Ben · Salvidrim! ✉ 16:08, 8 January 2018 (UTC)
Delete - Ambiguous as stated above and also the first two page of Google results are about the Heroes of the Storm map.Ben · Salvidrim! ✉ 16:08, 8 January 2018 (UTC)
- Disambiguate as was done already. Steel1943 and Xezbeth you both voted "delete" because there were too many things that could be referred to a "Sky Temple" so presumably the dabifying suits you as well? Ben · Salvidrim! ✉ 19:12, 9 January 2018 (UTC)
Delete, too vague of a term to redirect to a specific series.—Xezbeth (talk) 08:10, 9 January 2018 (UTC)
- Disambiguate since there's at least two valid entries on the newly created dab page. —Xezbeth (talk) 19:51, 9 January 2018 (UTC)
- Comment would there be interest in creating a dab for this: Sky Haven Temple exists for Skyrim, and there's a Sky Temple for Kid Icarus. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 17:25, 9 January 2018 (UTC)
- Considering what I said above, I think there are enough instances to have a DAB page and we definitely have pages for Fire Temple, Water Temple, etc. already Ben · Salvidrim! ✉ 17:54, 9 January 2018 (UTC)
- I've added these entries, except for Zelda which would need a dab mention. Also found Temple of Heaven which translates to Sky Temple. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 18:42, 9 January 2018 (UTC)

Too overly vague to redirect to Metroid. Best to delete and let the search function do its job. ZXCVBNM (TALK) 07:32, 7 January 2018 (UTC)
- Delete as fanboy-hijacking of a somewhat generic term. The same applies to the below Power Bomb, High Jump Boots, Speed Boost, Morphing Ball, Missile Combo, Combat Visor, Power Beam, and Death Ball. --Elmidae (talk · contribs) 07:42, 7 January 2018 (UTC)

- Retarget to g-suit which talks about suits that are used for g-force training. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 18:09, 9 January 2018 (UTC)
- Retarget to g-suit I agree with AngusWOOF that this could potentially be a useful redirect if retargeted to g-suit as that article talks about suits used for g ("gravity")-force training. --TheSandDoctor (talk) 06:44, 11 January 2018 (UTC)

Delete, too vague of a term to redirect to a specific series.—Xezbeth (talk) 10:17, 7 January 2018 (UTC)- Changed to retarget to powerbomb, which is a much better idea. —Xezbeth (talk) 11:43, 9 January 2018 (UTC)

No clue what this is, but it's not mentioned anywhere. Unnecessary redirect - delete. ZXCVBNM (TALK) 07:22, 7 January 2018 (UTC)
- Retarget to Qualcomm Snapdragon, there is evidence of usage in reliable sources of "Quadroid" as a portmanteau of "Qualcom" and "Android", similar to "Wintel" (Windows+Intel) https://www.computerworld.com/article/2514665/mobile-wireless/is--quadroid--the-new--wintel--.html, http://money.cnn.com/2010/11/12/technology/quadroid/index.htm, https://www.pcworld.com/article/212366/in_the_spirit_of_wintel_meet_quadroid.html.

Implausible redirect. Rarely gets more than 1 hit a week. ZXCVBNM (TALK) 07:12, 7 January 2018 (UTC)
- Keep, nothing's changed since the previous redirects for discussion listing. Bryan Derksen (talk) 17:17, 7 January 2018 (UTC)
- As I've said in the previous RfD: Keep - As a former AfD'ed title with 500+ revisions it is administratively sound to keep it, as we usually do for former titles of articles. Ben · Salvidrim! ✉ 23:11, 7 January 2018 (UTC)

- Delete, too vague of a term to redirect to a specific series. —Xezbeth (talk) 10:17, 7 January 2018 (UTC)
- Delete - As stated above, this vague term could refer to a number of things. CoffeeWithMarkets (talk) 16:16, 8 January 2018 (UTC)
- Delete. Pretty sure most racing games which occur in fictional environments have such a concept as well. Steel1943 (talk) 17:27, 8 January 2018 (UTC)
- Delete per nom. There are weak retarget candidates to Speedster (fiction) and Turbo boost but it's such a generic concept of being able to go faster. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 11:57, 9 January 2018 (UTC)

Implausible redirect, Morph Ball is never referred to as "Morphing Ball". Gets barely any hits. ZXCVBNM (TALK) 07:01, 7 January 2018 (UTC)
- Zxcvbnm Incorrect, the item is named "Morphing Ball" in Super Metroid. Ben · Salvidrim! ✉ 09:34, 7 January 2018 (UTC)
- Okay, I stand corrected. I still think that the redirect is unnecessary, given that it's not the canonical name and it rarely if ever gets a hit. It's also not called by that name in the article, either.ZXCVBNM (TALK) 13:13, 7 January 2018 (UTC)
- Yeah, wasn't too sure, but let's say weak retarget to Super Metroid#Gameplay. Ben · Salvidrim! ✉ 23:22, 7 January 2018 (UTC)
- Retarget to Super Metroid#Gameplay as suggested. Morph Ball can go to the general gameplay of the franchise. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 11:52, 9 January 2018 (UTC)

Implausible redirect due to the disambiguation. ZXCVBNM (TALK) 04:24, 7 January 2018 (UTC)
