Bug ID: 69167
Summary: Redirects - Try to detect and auto fix double
redirects before they happen
Product: MediaWiki extensions
Version: unspecified
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: Unprioritized

As far as I can tell double redirects are not a good thing in wikidata (after a
discussion with daniel)
I.e. if A redirects to B which redirects to C then A will break / not recirect
through the whole chain.
When redirects are created there should be some form of check / automated
action fixing double redirects that would be created.
- If I try to create a redirect to an item that is already a redirect, point to
the target at the end of the chain instead.
- If I turn an item into a redirect that has another redirect pointing toward
it already, change that redirect to point to the new target
