TASK DESCRIPTION
As you can see here, those renamed users do have global userpages in their new names. The system however identifies that the redirect is broken, so it lists it in Special:BrokenRedirects. This confuses bots, which mark the page for deletion.
To avoid bot accounts to be blocked for this, Special:BrokenRedirects should be able to know if the page which is redirected is to a global userpage, and if so, then not list it at Special:BrokenRedirects.
