Simmilar to ifexist, but rater than checking if a page exist or not it checks if a page is a redirect or not. Call it #ifredirect or something like that. This could be used as part of a template for thinkgs like making a listing automaticaly update to notify people that an article have been moved or otherwise redirected, for example during an ongoing deletion/rename/merge/split debate and simmilar. For extra credit a function to return the target of a redirect would be super neat in combination with this (getredirect or whatever) if it would not be too expensive. Then we could not only tell people that a page has been redirected but also to where. For example on the English Wikipedia {{#getredirect|WP:SOAP}} would produce: "Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not#Wikipedia is not a soapbox".
