'''Oppose''', on the basis that declaring us an English-speaking wiki is not on its own a sufficient reason to support a deletion of an article, especially when we have and accept loads of varying language redirects for other characters, most notably Pokémon.

Deletion?[edit]
Pretty much every other character (Robin, Corrin, Rosalina, all the Pokémon, Dedede; even Bowser gets a disambiguation) get language-based redirects; I don't see why Sheik has to be different because of a name which just happens to look like a spelling mistake. -Menshay (talk) 11:56, 7 May 2017 (EDT)
I'm reviving this; there's no reason to have a spelling mistake as a redirect. Penro 12:04, 22 July 2017 (EDT)
- Unfortunately it's not solely a spelling mistake, as it coincidentally happens to also be the German spelling. T.B.H I agree that it's kinda unnecessary, especially considering the fact that we have a username policy specifically based on the fact that we are, in fact, an english-speaking wiki, but I doubt it will be removed. But in any case, for what it's worth I support the proposed deletion. Alex Parpotta the flying lobster! 12:11, 22 July 2017 (EDT)
- The wiki doesn't get much traffic from Germans, iirc. Plus, like you said, we are an English wiki. I support. Penro 12:16, 22 July 2017 (EDT)
- Having traffic from people doesn't mean people don't read the wiki. And besides, we have a policy about this. Aidan, the Wandering Dragon Warrior 13:01, 22 July 2017 (EDT)
- Oh, and also, we may be an English-speaking wiki, but that doesn't mean we don't have international people working here. Aidan, the Wandering Dragon Warrior 13:20, 22 July 2017 (EDT)
