Wikivoyage:Votes for deletion/September 2020

Upper Lake
This is the accepted translation of the original French name, Lac Superieur. According to Wikipedia, "The British, upon taking control of the region from the French in the 1760s following the French and Indian War, anglicized the lake's name to Superior, "on account of its being superior in magnitude to any of the lakes on that vast continent"." So "Upper Lake" would be a useful redirect for time teavellers from before 1760 who decide to use Wikivoyage to plan their vacation to the Great Lakes. Delete.

 * Delete "Upper Lake" is apparently a location in California, but also is such a generic term that Google suggests a variety of different lakes when typing (as suggestions) and searching. ChubbyWimbus (talk) 14:00, 30 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete per above. —Granger (talk · contribs) 14:38, 30 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete, and my vote would be for speedy.--ThunderingTyphoons! (talk) 14:57, 30 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete Ikan Kekek (talk) 15:08, 30 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete this redirect. The destination article of the redirect has no mention of mention of "Upper Lake" and so a reader is going to be confused. AlasdairW (talk) 20:04, 30 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete I think we have enough consensus to do it now. Pashley (talk) 02:43, 1 September 2020 (UTC)
 * Result: deleted.--ThunderingTyphoons! (talk) 16:11, 1 September 2020 (UTC)

DXN
A redirect that points to the wrong target (as per http://www.gcmap.com/mapui?P=dcn ) with the "right" target unlikely to justify such a redirect. Hobbitschuster (talk) 14:19, 3 September 2020 (UTC)
 * This was created in error by me. Deleted.--ThunderingTyphoons! (talk) 14:43, 3 September 2020 (UTC)

WikiGnome
Per Wikivoyage talk:WikiGnome. This information might as well be included at Wikipedia, as we already have the page Welcome, copyeditors that serves the same purpose. --Comment by Selfie City  ( talk  |  contributions ) 18:51, 4 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete - I wasn't aware of the existence of the Welcome, copyeditors page when I imported this page, but since it already exists, this page serves no purpose. The dog2 (talk) 20:28, 4 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete - I feel like ideas like this are a quirky holdover from the early days of wikis, but they're not terribly user-friendly. A simple page like Welcome, copyeditors is much clearer. --Bigpeteb (talk) 00:58, 5 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete - per proposal and Bigpeteb. Ground Zero (talk) 15:25, 29 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete --ThunderingTyphoons! (talk) 14:59, 30 August 2020 (UTC)

Bristol Channel
An orphaned article I found accidentally through Google, because it's barely linked to from other articles on Wikivoyage. It will never have any content because all relevant content already exists in other articles (South Wales, Bristol, and Somerset): there isn't anything to write about a sea itself, and content on coastal cities goes into their respective articles. The edit history of the article suggests it's a relic from the WT era, there have been no significant edits to the article in the last 10 years (!) since it was last proposed to delete it. I would suggest it be deleted or redirected to Bristol. 87.74.178.74 08:39, 10 August 2020 (UTC)


 * Redirect, but doing so to Bristol would be odd; probably better redirecting to United Kingdom.--ThunderingTyphoons! (talk) 08:49, 10 August 2020 (UTC)
 * In fact, per Bodies of water: "Where the information on the body of water is contained within several articles, or the body of water is large and not specific to a single region, create a extraregion page referencing the destination guides, travel topics and itineraries associated with it.", so maybe (a) it's fine as it is, or (b) the bodies of water of policy needs updating. --ThunderingTyphoons! (talk) 10:19, 10 August 2020 (UTC)


 * Delete Why would we redirect such a non-entity? Hobbitschuster (talk) 10:10, 10 August 2020 (UTC)


 * Because it's a real place? The same reason that's been given the countless times you've made this exact same point.--ThunderingTyphoons! (talk) 10:15, 10 August 2020 (UTC)
 * And what about the Bodies of Water policy? Hobbitschuster (talk) 10:26, 10 August 2020 (UTC)
 * See my above comment on that. It looks like the page is in line with that policy, though in practice that seems deficient to me.--ThunderingTyphoons! (talk) 10:42, 10 August 2020 (UTC)


 * Keep as an extraregion article. I don’t see anything wrong with it, except a few possible formatting changes. It’s okay to have extraregion articles that are unlikely to get longer; this information is enough for travelers since it takes them to nearby destinations. --Comment by Selfie City  ( talk  |  contributions ) 11:10, 10 August 2020 (UTC)


 * Keep. Like SC. There could also be additional content for those arriving with own craft (or cruising the channel?), which is better suited for this page than the specific ports or the region articles. --LPfi (talk) 12:32, 10 August 2020 (UTC)


 * Keep - the Bristol Channel is a typical extraregion article of which we have many, including seas. Some of the section headings should be removed though as they will never be filled. Gizza ( roam ) 12:40, 10 August 2020 (UTC)


 * Comment It's OK as an extra-region, but the map is not good, because it shows colored regions only on one side of the channel. Ikan Kekek (talk) 22:08, 10 August 2020 (UTC)


 * I'm now fine to keep this in order for consensus to be reached.--ThunderingTyphoons! (talk) 14:58, 30 August 2020 (UTC)


 * Keep as an extraregion article. Pashley (talk) 02:45, 1 September 2020 (UTC)


 * It looks like the consensus is to keep as is. Any final objections? --ThunderingTyphoons! (talk) 15:18, 3 September 2020 (UTC)


 * No. --Prahlad balaji (talk) 22:55, 6 September 2020 (UTC)


 * In case you didn't get my reply --Prahlad balaji (talk) 03:28, 10 September 2020 (UTC)


 * Any registered user can handle this, including you.
 * Result: kept.ThunderingTyphoons! (talk) 07:01, 10 September 2020 (UTC)
