Can we have an eat listing? edit

Brussels/North Redirect edit
- Swept in from the pub
To me it looks like not the way one redirects and perhaps (given Berlin/North) not the way to treat "former districts" in the first place. User:ArticCynda thinks differently, so I'll ask y'all... Hobbitschuster (talk) 18:21, 29 July 2018 (UTC)
- What's the issue? Why not replace the whole page with just the redirect statement? Andree.sk (talk) 18:49, 29 July 2018 (UTC)
- I don't see the issue either, organizing a redirect this way preserves the original district page as a legacy/archive, and forwards to the new district page simultaneously. ArticCynda (talk) 19:38, 29 July 2018 (UTC)
- I've noticed circular redirects left behind in other cases where this sort of redistricting was done. For instance, Toronto/Fashion District was merged into another district, but the new district still linked to the old one (which no longer exists), leaving the reader going around in pointless circles.

- I agree with Hobbitschuster—the current situation, in which the page is a redirect but also has a bunch of content including listings, is no good. The listings should be merged to the target article before turning the page into a redirect (I think this is what Andree.sk is suggesting). —Granger (talk · contribs) 23:51, 29 July 2018 (UTC)
- Hobbitschuster did neither though, and with his revert only removed the redirect completely. ArticCynda (talk) 07:35, 30 July 2018 (UTC)
- Brussels/Southeast also has a redirect without merging/moving content - are there any more? Xsobev (talk) 09:41, 30 July 2018 (UTC)
- I came across another: Brussels/East. Xsobev (talk) 13:06, 30 July 2018 (UTC)
