still seems like a product decision by @Lydia_Pintscher and or 
@Samantha_Alipio_WMDE that needs to happen here.
  
  In that case, would you mind asking one of them to respond here or at T54564 
<https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T54564>? They do not seem to be responsive 
to Phabricator pings.

https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/c/mediawiki/extensions/Wikibase/+/602422 this 
changes all input of site title to NOT be normalized.

redirects, rather than just for the cases discussed here and in T54564 
<https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T54564> etc.
  
  That is correct.

<https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T235420#5932084> it sounds like this could 
have a solution that doesn't change all sitelink title input.
  > This comment suggests that the issue is that badges can not be created on 
sitelinks that are redirects.

sitelinks point to Wikipedia redirect pages", not "do not use canonical pages 
names (including following redirects) when sitelinks are created"
  
  Either solution is fine with me, but just ignoring everyone isn't a good 
solution. The Wikidata community clearly favors allowing redirects as sitelinks 
and has been doing it via a workaround for a long time now. There's no good 
reason (that I've heard) to make it so difficult.
