Howdy Tollerach. Sorry if I deleted them without even thinking they were linked to pages, since I assumed the main pages of the redirects are the ones used for links.

I really don't like the idea that we have links to redirects in the site, considering we already have the main pages for them to be linked at.

We can always have considerations about redirect links, like what you have pointed out above that you use them on infoboxes etc, but we should never try and practice linking redirects on the pages. We have the search bar for a reason, and that a simple typing of words like "common" and browse through the results isnt really a tough job to do.

I am very much used to cleaning out wikis, since I work on the moderation side of the wikis, so I try to make the site as clean as possible.

What we can do, is maybe list me the redirects you are using, and those are the only ones I can keep on the site. Other than those, I should delete the other redirects. They count as mainspace pages, and it isnt really helpful on our article count and it makes searching limited for users.

Again, sorry if I deleted without checking if theyre linked in pages since I assumed they shouldnt have been used in links as they are redirects.

Thanks for understanding! ~
