Redirect suppression and renaming files
[edit]Hi Minorax. While I was looking at some recently renamed files, I noticed that you generally rename files without leaving behind a redirect, including each of your 24 most recent moves. Per WP:PMRC, redirect suppression is permitted only for redirects that would have otherwise been eligible for speedy deletion. (Indeed, "a pattern of using the permission to suppress redirects that would not have been eligible for one of the criteria for speedy deletion" is a ground for revocation per WP:PMRR#3.) There used to be a boldly added redirect-suppression criterion PMRC#10 (old page version) "Moving little-used files when all uses have been manually changed to the new title (WP:CSD#G6)" from 2019 to 2022, but it was removed because there was substantial opposition to deleting/suppressing these redirects, so it didn't have the consensus necessary to be included in a criterion for speedy deletion.
With that in mind, could you tell me what criterion for speedy deletion (or equivalently redirect suppression), if any, each of the following suppressed move redirects (to pick a handful) would fall into?

(If your answer is that they wouldn't fall into any of the criteria, that's perfectly fine with me so long as you intend to limit your redirect suppression to those criteria in the future.) SilverLocust 💬 08:26, 14 December 2024 (UTC)
- Except for File 3, I do not have any strong standing on suppressing the redirects, and I apologise for that and will limit redirect suppressions in future. For FNC7 files, I believe that redirects should be suppressed as long as all incoming links are changed to the new title, if not there isn't a difference of moving the files to a less ambiguous title. However, it still doesn't necessarily comply with WP:FRN so I'll just leave redirects after moving in future. --Min☠︎rax«¦talk¦» 08:46, 14 December 2024 (UTC)
- Great, thanks! For
WP:FNC#7WP:FNC#9 [edit: oops, for some reason I was thinking you had said WP:FNC#9.], redirect suppression is certainly permitted and helpful. There's a criterion for that at WP:PMRC#5/WP:R4. SilverLocust 💬 08:52, 14 December 2024 (UTC)
