Currently, Wikipedias' redirection pages are not allowed in the sitelinks of an item. (apparently for a technical reason)
Some Wikidata and Wikipedia users would like these redirection pages to be allowed. These links would also need to be identified as redirection links, both on the WD interface and the database.
User case : Fingon Q1637341 is an elf from Middle-Earth. On the French Wikipedia, there is no article about Fingon, but there is a redirection from Fingon to an anchor in a list : Liste des Elfes de la Terre du Milieu#Fingon.
So there is information on French Wikipedia about Fingon, but the link doesn't appear on the Wikidata item.
Besides, if an infobox on Wikipedia about another elf have the property father:Fingon, the template will display that there is no such article on Wikipedia, while there is actually some info about Fingon.
This feature would be very useful for both Wikidata and Wikipedia.
