Keep. I appreciate that you meant well - I enjoy tidying too - but there was no need for you to do that: see WP:NOTBROKEN. That redirect's been around since 2004, which is a very, very long time and certainly long enough for there being not a certainty, but a reasonable chance of someone outside Wikipedia linking to it. — Scott • talk 13:06, 21 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. In addition to Scott's comments, this is also standard {{R from move}} (I'm about to tag it as such). Thryduulf (talk) 15:10, 21 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]
