Wikipedia:The Salem Redirect Trials
(true title)
(true title)
Don't let the "true title" fool you – redirects are not "witches", they're just... well... sometimes perhaps just a bit too "bewitchin' and beguilin'". This essay is about redirect pages, more specifically, the printworthiness or printability of redirect pages that are in article namespace (mainspace). So here is the place to show existing ideas and to come up with new ideas (while sometimes discarding old ideas).
This essay will hopefully lead all of us to a more and more useful guideline for determining which mainspace redirects are printworthy and which are unprintworthy.
