Redirects are cheap - so cheap in fact, that they take up more space when
you delete them, so even if they are misspelled or whatever, they are
mostly left to rot unless they break something (for example when someone

be trivial to update a Wikidata item with an image when that image becomes
available on Commons. Until that time, the item can point to a catalog's

Thanks for this work - it's fascinating to see the huge gaps in the

individuals who have input those properties by hand, or whether some
people have enabled clever bots for their regions that other regions
could reuse?
Hi all,
What I don't understand is the need to keep all labels blank until
they are updated by hand. Especially for biographical articles, it
would be nice to have original spellings of the person's name, even if
it's Chinese or something else really far away from English. That
might serve as a

You hit the nail on the head! I have been cataloguing the artists of

Be careful what you wish for! If this were possible, then if someone changed
