Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion/Log/2008 November 12/Mac list

This is a very long list. Click "show" at right to expand it.
The list itself is transcluded from a subpage in order to keep the discussion page from getting too badly cluttered. Click here to edit the list.

General characteristics:
In all cases, these redirects were created as redirects. They have no significant history and were not the result of pagemoves.
The redirects have few or no inbound links. Those inbound links which do exist were (to the best of my ability to tell) created by the same user who created the redirect. In the majority of cases, they were created by the addition of a "see also" link, not even a link within the body of text.

Proposed groundrules for managing the list:

If you see a redirect that could be profitably redirected, turned into a useful article or disambiguated, be bold and do it. Then strike the entry here and note the new target.
If the redirect actually makes sense, strike it off the list and briefly note your reason. (If there is disagreement, pull it off the list and open a stand-alone RfD.)
If something is in the wrong category or you have a better idea for a header, just fix it.
If you find another redirect with the same fact-pattern (and I imagine we will find many over the next few days), just add it.
At the end of an extended discussion period, those left-over that can't find a home can be procedurally deleted.
