I call bad faith nom.JuJube (talk) 13:33, 19 July 2008 (UTC) - Keep It's not the official name, but people who live near it call it the Redlands freeway, and are bound to type it in, thus it's extremely useful and a likely search term. The purpose of a good redirect is to eliminate the possibility that an average user will wind up staring blankly at a "Search results 1-10 out of 378" search page instead of the article they were looking for. If someone could plausibly type in the redirect's name when searching for the target article, it's a good redirect. It's extremely likely that someone looking for this article will type this in.--Serviam (talk) 15:12, 19 July 2008 (UTC)
