You are probably already aware of this, but there is an Action API endpoint to enumerate redirects: * https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/API:Allredirects * https://mdwiki.org/wiki/Special:ApiSandbox#action=query&format=json&list=allredirects Direct database access is likely faster than enumerating results 500 at a time via the Action API, but it also may reduce the complexity and fragility of your operational deployment.
