UDWiki:Administration/Policy Discussion/Userspace Redirects

This has been an on-off issue for a while, and while it's never been overly serious, it should probably actually be hashed out in a reasonable manner. I'd rather see a consensus decision on what exceptions to make rather than propose a set entirely myself and put that to voting, but my gut would say that redirects to anything which objectively serves the community should be allowed, and nothing else. That means that guides, maps, scripts, research and the like would be allowed, but anything which is questionable in regards to POV shouldn't - no redirecting someone's character name to a userpage where information can't be edited except by the owner, etc. I'd also say that the existence of a redirect should be allowed by exception, not by right - if a page is brought up for deletion on valid regards, it should not be enough to simply defend it with "but I say it serves the community" without being backed up by actual community support. Examples of what I would consider valid would be pages such as User:Aichon/Userscripts, User:Rosslessness/The Difference, or User:Grim s/Grims guide to staying alive.

If consensus can be reached on the talk page, then a formal proposal can be put to voting.
