- The Communist Manifesto/Opening → The Communist Manifesto (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
- The Communist Manifesto/Bourgoise and Proletarians → The Communist Manifesto (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
- The Communist Manifesto/Proletarians and Communists → The Communist Manifesto (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
When these were created, they contained the text of the relevant sections of the Manifesto. Now we have WikiSource for that, and we consider the full text of large works WP:NOT appropriate for Wikipedia. Since the redirects imply dedicated content on specific sections, it might be appropriate to point "Bourgoise and Proletarians" and "Proletarians and Communists" to the Synopsis section, or anchors thereof, but the "Opening" one seems bound to disappoint readers. --BDD (talk) 15:58, 8 November 2017 (UTC)

The target section doesn't exist anymore; it seemed to be a distillation of 10 key points from the Manifesto, but the idea of "10 Planks" feels like WP:OR. The document wasn't an official political party platform, where we'd speak of "planks". BDD (talk) 15:56, 8 November 2017 (UTC)
- Comment There was a discussion in 2016 on the ten planks at Talk:The_Communist_Manifesto/Archive_1#Request_for_comments. Has anything changed since then? AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 17:47, 8 November 2017 (UTC)
- Delete - There doesn't seem to be a clear set of "ten planks" in the first place, other than belated attempts by outside parties to make them up. Deletion seems like the right call. CoffeeWithMarkets (talk) 18:27, 8 November 2017 (UTC)

Capetian-Plantagenet Rivalry
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. Miscapitalisations of the garden variety have tended to split opinions at RfD, and in the absence of any other arguments, any further discussion is extremely unlikely to result in deletion. (non-admin closure) – Uanfala 12:31, 19 November 2017 (UTC)
- Capetian-Plantagenet Rivalry → Capetian-Plantagenet rivalry (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
This is the appendix of a page move by someone who hadn't read MOS:HEADCAPS. Since searches are case-insensitive it seems to serve little purpose. Pinkbeast (talk) 00:45, 8 November 2017 (UTC)
- Apparently they haven't read MOS:NDASH and MOS:HYPHEN either. Moving to Capetian–Plantagenet Rivalry. Yes, delete the variant with a stray capital R. — JFG talk 14:00, 8 November 2017 (UTC)
- I don't think that was their fault - AFAICT it had had a '-' since forever. And thanks. Pinkbeast (talk) 15:08, 8 November 2017 (UTC)
- Comment the book sources do not use the capital R for the rivalry. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 17:50, 8 November 2017 (UTC)
- Keep, harmless {{R from other capitalization}}. Note that the MOS does not apply to redirects. -- Tavix (talk) 15:04, 17 November 2017 (UTC)
