GuildWiki talk:Bot tasks/Links to unnecessary redirects

Good idea, and while it's similar to the "Relinking moved pages" task, they should be separate since that deals with fixing the links at the same time as the move. I'd say more but I'm extremely tired right now - never should've checked the wiki in the first place. XD &mdash;Dr Ishmael  06:14, 22 June 2008 (UTC)

To do
Here's a short to-do list I was already compiling on GuildWiki talk:Bot tasks/Relinking moved pages. &mdash;Dr Ishmael 06:10, 22 June 2008 (UTC)

Orphaned/unnecessary redirects
These are redirects that are pretty much useless. They were either created by well-meaning editors who didn't understand the automatic redirection of MediaWiki search, or are remnants of page moves. Links to them should be updated to the new article and the redirect should be deleted.
 * [ Attribute point] &rarr; Attribute Point
 * [ Cold Damage] &rarr; Cold damage
 * [ Crafting Material] &rarr; Crafting material
 * [ Death Penalty] &rarr; Death penalty
 * [ Earth Damage] &rarr; Earth damage
 * [ Elite Armor] &rarr; Elite armor
 * [ Fire Damage] &rarr; Fire damage
 * [ Lightning Damage] &rarr; Lightning damage
 * [ PvP Character] &rarr; PvP character
 * [ Skill Details] &rarr; Skill details
 * [ Skill Trainer] &rarr; Skill trainer
 * [ Unique Item] &rarr; Unique item
 * [ The Tarnished Coast] &rarr; Tarnished Coast not sure if the redirect should be deleted

Necessary redirects that should have internal links fixed
These are necessary redirects that should not be deleted. However, because we should try to keep our internal redirect links to a minimum, all links to them should be updated to the redirect target.

Many of these are plurals and need special rules to handle them:
 * &rarr;
 * &rarr;

Others are links that need to appear as the name of the redirect page, thus they also require a special rule:
 * &rarr;


 * [ Blunt]
 * [ Cold]
 * [ Collectors]
 * [ Dwarves]
 * [ Earth]
 * [ Fire]
 * [ Lightning]
 * [ Locations]
 * [ Piercing]
 * [ Runes]
 * [ Slashing]
 * [ Weapon upgrades]
 * [ Raisu Palace (Mission)]
