Description Purodha Blissenbach 2009-05-09 07:30:31 UTC 
Special:Disambiguations in the ksh Wikipedia at least is cluttered with lots of redirects intentionally going directly to disambiguation pages. The reason being that there is a systematic "something → something (disambiguation)" redirect policy for many "something"s, which itself comes from the fact that there is a need to accomocate differently spelled "something"s from different dialects, but there should be only one disambiguation page for all of them, regardless of dialect/spelling variants.

So as to better separate "good" from "bad" links going to redirect pages, it would be helpful, if there was an option to filter redirect pages on the source side.
