Board Thread:Consensus Track/@comment-1251315-20150625184021

Hi there

This is a small suggestion, but it would require a bot if consensus is reached.

As we know, redirects are an important part of the wiki. The only problem is that finding all the redirects is near to impossible. This is because Special:ListRedirects will only list the first 1000 in alphabetical order, meaning that redirects beyond the 1,000th can't be found without guesswork.

I am proposing that we categorise all the redirects under a Redirects category. As categories are not limited and don't cap the number of results generated, this will make for the quick finding of redirects. We can also consider defining a redirect (such as Chapter Redirects, Episodes Redirects, Redirects from alternative names, Jutsu Redirects) and so on. I don't believe SMW can list redirects, so this would be useful.

Since so many redirects exist, a bot would have to be used to categorise them. This thread is to reach a consensus about whether we should have redirects categorised or not. Discuss below, thanks! :)
