I'd like to suggest a rework of this page. At present, it is just the mechanics of a simple redirect.

Several other points I think need covering:

  • Redirecting so that common synonyms will all end up at the same place, [[FBI]] and [[Federal Bureau of Investigation]]
  • Redirecting to one article after consolidation two closely related articles and the idea of cleaning up by fixing the links to the article that is now a redirect.
  • Distinguishing between a redirect and a move.

Also, I don't understand the Larrys Page example at all.
