@Bugreporter If you say "we should tag" then who do you think should do the tagging? If you expect Wikipedia editors to do that, how do you think they learn that they are not supposed to put __VALIDREDIRECT__ on redirects that are not eligible for an independent Wikidata item? If I would be a Wikipedia editor and see __VALIDREDIRECT__ on one redirect page, my natural impression would be that __VALIDREDIRECT__ is supposed to be put on all redirect pages that conform with the redirect policy of the Wikipedia. It's even policy that someone makes an RFC that calls for that on enWiki which would invite us into another conflict between Wikidata and Wikipedia where I don't want to explain to the enWiki audience that they are supposed to respect Wikidata policy in regards to texts they put on enWiki pages. As a guiding principle for Wikidata development "Don't do anything that has a potential for starting conflicts with other Wikimedia projects" is useful. If there's a desire on the Wikipedia side to later make it visible that this is a local redirects eligible for an independent Wikidata item, that's an policy decision that can be made via RFC on those projects and a bot could create them based on the badges. In the future badges might also be automatically created in specific cases to improve user experience, but for today simply the solution as detailed in the starting post and approved by @Manuel is the right way to go.
