Unused redirect to {{Commons}}. Will make it easier and more effective if redirects are orphaned and deleted. MGA73 (talk) 23:33, 27 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment why? WP:CHEAP no? 70.49.124.157 (talk) 05:04, 28 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  • Because these templates works like interwiki links to Commons. It makes the development and maintanance of bots harder the more different names and templates we have for the same funcktion. Take interwiki links an exampe. All wikis uses the same syntax. What would happen if wikis started to use 10 different ways of adding interwiki links? You could kiss interwiki bots goodbye. --MGA73 (talk) 11:28, 28 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Another example. If enwiki has a redirect and someone copy the text to another wiki then the other wiki will either need the same useless redirect or the template will end up red. On ms-wiki they made a redirect and result was hundreds of categories with 2 of the same templates because the bot was not updated with this redirect. If all wikis could agree to use "Commonscat" (when linking to categories) and "Commons" (when linking to galleries) then it would be much easier. --MGA73 (talk) 12:35, 28 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect to {{Commons category}}. Was only used on a few pages. Will make it easier and more effective if redirects are oprhaned and deleted. MGA73 (talk) 23:26, 27 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment why? WP:CHEAP no? And this used to be a different template 70.49.124.157 (talk) 05:04, 28 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  • See #Template:Commonsme above. --MGA73 (talk) 11:29, 28 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete: the redirects are only cheap in main and Wikipedia (WP) namespace, elsewhere they are bot masters' nightmare and a pain after XfDs. This one also comes with puzzling "2", which might be a good idea back in 2005, when there were 2½ users of the template who knew the rationale, but people come and go, so the secret of "2" is lost forever anyway. — Dmitrij D. Czarkoff (talk) 01:01, 8 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  • And #Template:Commonsme above was deleted. --MGA73 (talk) 07:34, 8 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

This redirect is an implausible search term, more so given that "arrythmogenic" is misspelt. This redirect should be deleted. Axl ¤ [Talk] 19:31, 27 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
