 * - mostly where taxonomy and redirects overlap, though occasionally I'll deal with some other redirect stuff as well. (E.g. the conversion efforts from Redr to rcat shell when the former got deprecated.)
 * I've completed all redirects from Spanish and French names of political parties in Latin America and Africa. Now working in European ones
 *  Allen  talk  17:16, 9 August 2014 (UTC): Internal redirects would be it.

 * BDD (talk) 07:33, 23 February 2013 (UTC) Count me among those who were already doing this sort of thing. Redirects are a vital behind-the-scenes asset to our readers.
 * I like to go around random articles to see if they need common redirects.
 * Adding capitalization differences and some unusual Arabic transriptions.
 * I like to add redirects while I'm expanding pages since it is less stressful.
 * I already do this so why not sign up :)

 * 03:40, 13 August 2008 - Whoop-de-doodle. I should have been here long ago. :) Some that spring to mind. So many <span redirects. Double digit numbers with and without apostrophes, e.g. '07 or 08. Dave Geraghty. And on this very day Failte Towers and Gerard McDonnell. So yes, a few names that might get shortened to avoid confusion. And Irish language titles, punctuation, symbols and such-like.
 * Capybarafan436 17:12, 25 January 2024 (UTC)
 * &mdash; Cbbkr (talk) 00:48, 4 June 2013 (UTC) &mdash; I've been adding Redirect templates, esp. "to section/anchor" where appropriate, and also adding redirects to WikiProjects via appropriate banners on their talk pages. I also create redirects to replace direct wikilinks to sections/anchors (based on the reasoning in WP:NOTBROKEN).
