Leaving this open for someone patrolling edit requests. — xaosflux ^Talk 14:42, 14 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@JMF most redirects don't need SHORTDESC, what makes this one special? — xaosflux ^Talk 14:43, 14 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Nothing, my mistake. I was thinking of "redirects to section or anchor", which do need their own SDs.

To be more precise, {{annotated link}} "reads through" to the SD on the redirect target, so doesn't require an SD on the redirector. I don't know if the same is true of the Wikipedia app. --𝕁𝕄𝔽 (talk) 14:50, 14 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
