:I don't think unilaterally redirecting them is a good approach. There are a lot of articles on the wiki which could use more information, or can be perceived as not having a whole lot in comparison to other articles, however that does not necessarily mean they need to be removed/redirected. It would also be detrimental to search ranking for [https://www.google.com/search?q=oot+light+medallion every] [https://www.google.com/search?q=oot+forest+medallion single] [https://www.google.com/search?q=oot+fire+medallion one] [https://www.google.com/search?q=oot+water+medallion of] [https://www.google.com/search?q=oot+shadow+medallion those] [https://www.google.com/search?q=oot+spirit+medallion articles], if someone happens to search for them. We want to improve our rankings against our competition, not diminish it. We can do that by improving the articles. --[[User:Charitwo|Charitwo]] ([[User talk:Charitwo|talk]]) 18:42, March 16, 2024 (UTC) | :I don't think unilaterally redirecting them is a good approach.

I noticed that the page for the [[Light Sword]] has a redirect, '''Light Sword (Hyrule Warriors)''', when the Light Sword's only appearance is in ''Hyrule Warriors''. I was wondering if you could delete it, as the redirect is completely unnecessary. --- [[User:Xelleak|Xelleak]] ([[User talk:Xelleak|talk]]) 16:20, March 20, 2024 | |||
:It looks like it was created because it was and is still linked from another article. --[[User:Charitwo|Charitwo]] ([[User talk:Charitwo|talk]]) 16:44, March 20, 2024 (UTC) | |||
:That was a link I made while editing the [[Lokomo Sword]] page because I thought the Light Sword was a non-Hyrule Warriors item. I have deleted the link, so could you now delete the redirect, please? --- [[User:Xelleak|Xelleak]] ([[User talk:Xelleak|talk]]) 17:00, March 21, 2024 | |||
::The redirect doesn't really hurt or affect anything, and there's zero benefit to deleting it, but since it's not linked from anywhere, I suppose I can. --[[User:Charitwo|Charitwo]] ([[User talk:Charitwo|talk]]) 17:08, March 21, 2024 (UTC) | |||
