Splitting this off from bug 27311 (in light of bug 27683 comment 5).
MediaWiki core should have a "create a redirect" form. The current system is
painfully unintuitive. It requires first figuring out how to create a page at
all and then figuring out that you need special "#REDIRECT [[ ]]" syntax. Some
people make the argument that this toughens people up and prepares them for the
wikitext world. I believe that a form really wouldn't kill us here.
Moving a page is sort of a form for making a redirect, but that requires a page
already existing. In this bug, we want a form, in MediaWiki core, for creating
a redirect. Special:CreatePage or Special:CreateRedirect or something.
This bug might be a dupe of bug 27311, but we can't really know until someone
actually implements one or the other.
