Comment: I already provided several sources showing this is commonly used I don't understand your reasoning. -- 65.94.43.89 (talk) 11:41, 11 April 2015 (UTC)
- "Lord British" is commonly used for Richard Garriott, but "Lord British (nickname)" and "Lord British (username)" have no established usage. We generally don't usually redirects when people randomly guess at (parenthesis) names for internal Wikipedia pages. Alsee (talk) 17:43, 12 April 2015 (UTC)
- It is not random, it's a disambiguator, per Wikipedia disambiguation practice, why we have articles like Batman (film), etc. It will show up in the searchbox, so you can use the dropdown to select the exact article by accessing through the redirect. -- 65.94.43.89 (talk) 08:34, 13 April 2015 (UTC)

Redirect requests: England Birmingham Mission, England Leeds Mission, England London Mission, England London South Mission, England Manchester Mission
- Target of redirect: List of missions of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints#Europe and Russia.5B9.5D
- Reason: English missions.
Pickuptha'Musket (talk) 19:37, 10 April 2015 (UTC)
- England Leeds Mission exists as a redirect to Mission (LDS Church). It probably shouldn't, since Leeds isn't mentioned there at all. Do any LDS missions have standalone articles? Brazil Belo Horizonte East Mission is the only current redirect to List of missions of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. If we can't say anything about a given mission besides that it exists, I'm concerned that such redirects could be misleading. The "Mission by year of formation" section has further information on some specific missions, but only limited amounts, and it's separated from the main listing. --BDD (talk) 14:30, 11 April 2015 (UTC)
- No, they don't. I think such redirects are only misleading if they're targeted to the wrong article, or section. Pickuptha'Musket (talk) 20:42, 11 April 2015 (UTC)
