Should this be redirecting?


As far as this Pixel can tell, the only information in the Ace Combat 5 article germane to razgriz (by any stretch of the imagination) is the following:

  1. The demon of Razgriz is heavily referred to in this game although the origins of this demon are unknown. Razgriz is probably taken from Rathgrith, a Valkyrie in Norse mythology. The Valkyries' purpose was to choose the most heroic of those who had died in battle and to carry them off to Valhalla where they became einherjar.
  2. Razgriz also means "death" in Russian.

IMHO, the fact that this pertinent information is buried in the description of some obscure psx game does not constitute a worthwile justification for redirection.

Initially, I linked to the Rasgriz article from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Death_%28personification%29. The inclusion of this article in the referring page is to allow one (ostensibly) to find more information on the Russian-flavored scythe-wielding entity.

Redirection gives the false impression that wikipedia elaboration on Razgriz is in fact extant, which it is not, and makes it cumbersome for a community member to contribute such an article.

Perhaps if the references to the game were removed from the above-cited passage it could serve as a starting point for further exploration.

This redirect is thoroughly unhelpful and annoying to anyone wishing to find information about the actual demon Razgriz.
