           Summary: Special:Disambiguations should allow to filter redirects
           Product: MediaWiki
           Version: 1.15-svn
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: Normal
         Component: Special pages
        AssignedTo: [email protected]
        ReportedBy: [email protected]

Special:Disambiguations in the ksh Wikipedia at least is cluttered with lots of
redirects intentionally going directly to disambiguation pages. The reason
being that there is a systematic "something → something (disambiguation)"
redirect policy for many "something"s, which itself comes from the fact that
there is a need to accomocate differently spelled "something"s from different
dialects, but there should be only one disambiguation page for all of them,
regardless of dialect/spelling variants.

So as to better separate "good" from "bad" links going to redirect pages, it
would be helpful, if there was an option to filter redirect pages on the source
side.
