: I can reduce the number of redirects I add, and would also invite you to be more vocal when you find a redirect to be a bit odd. I think CL was a pretty reasonable redirect though, given that Wikipedia's article on the Condorcet loser criterion uses the initialism "CLC" for it, and several hits on Google showed academic articles abbreviating Condorcet loser as CL.

: I went through the WP policy on redirects, and I wasn't able to figure out exactly what you're taking issue with, other than the initialisms thing. For the sake of clarity, and to avoid problems down the road, can you give me some more examples or a general outline of what redirects I've made that you disagree with? Some of the initialism redirects I've made that may not be too obvious just by looking at them, I added because I've seen discussions in other forums where those initialisms were used i.e. [[SSQ]] is used on forum.electionscience.org, as can be seen in [[https://forum.electionscience.org/search?q=SSQ]].

== Redirects to Wikipedia ==
[[User:Psephomancy]], as I recall, you had configured redirects to ''immediately'' redirect to Wikipedia a while back. I see that you're setting up some new redirects (e.g. how [[JSTOR]] goes immediately to [[wikipedia:JSTOR]]). I really like keeping the articles (and the corpus as a whole) available on Electowiki aligned with the naming and policies of English Wikipedia ([[EnWiki]]), but I'm not so sure I like making the line between Electowiki and EnWiki that blurry. Do we have a configuration setting we can tweak, or is that something I need to ask the [[Miraheze]] folks? The reason why I ask is because I think we should figure out a policy for when we use [[EnWiki]] links in Electowiki #REDIRECTs. -- [[User:RobLa|RobLa]] ([[User talk:RobLa|talk]]) 20:09, 9 May 2020 (UTC)
