Why aren't these pages all redirected?[edit]

Why aren't these pages all redirected? Should they be? User:Legacypac? --SmokeyJoe (talk) 06:01, 28 July 2017 (UTC).[reply]

Maybe they should be. However, if the reviewer immediately redirected the creator would not see the message to work on the existing page. After that there is nothing to trigger anyone to redirect a week or month or whenever later. After 6 months they generally go G13. There is no attribution reason to redirect. I'm not seeing much value in redirecting the pages instead of deleting so I've not been doing it. Legacypac (talk) 06:09, 28 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • That's another reason why comments should go on the talk page. Nominating these at MfD is a far bigger waste of people's time than redirecting. --SmokeyJoe (talk) 22:41, 28 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
