Those who keep an eye to recent changes have probably noticed that for the last few days, many of my edits have focused on correcting redirects. Between using Special:WhatLinksHere, Special:ListRedirects, and Special:AllPages, we have tons of unused redirects. Between misspellings, number based redirects, romaji based redirects, name order, etc, we have over 1000 redirects. In fact, Special:ListRedirects lists only up to 1000 cached redirects, and currently they list only numbed based ones, and one starting from A to C. Talk page redirects don't show up in that list, but they do appear in Special:AllPages when you ask for all talk pages. There are several redirects which are no-brainers in keeping, but for the ones to be deleted, I'd like to use this discussion to come up with a rule of thumb, something useful, but not iron-clad in determining which redirects go and which stay. Thoughts?
