Hello. Since I saw that you requested the same redirect creation requests twice, I think I understand what you are trying to actually do. If I understand, you are trying to have Sonny Kiriakis redirect to Jackson Kiriakis. Your requests are being rejected since Wikipedia:Articles for creation/Redirects is used to create redirects with articles that do not exist; for your request to be valid, Sonny Kiriakis would have to appear red, which it does not; it is blue. If you need more explanation between red and blue links, please see WP:REDLINK and/or WP:BLUELINK.

However, what you are trying to do, I believe, is change already-existing Sonny Kiriakis to no longer redirect towards Minor characters of Days of our Lives, but instead, redirect towards Jackson Kiriakis. If that is what you are trying to do, you can do so by following these steps:

  1. Go to Sonny Kiriakis. This should redirect you towards Minor characters of Days of our Lives.
  2. At the very top of the article, next to the article's title, you should see below it the phrase "From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia", and then below that the phrase "(Redirected from Sonny Kiriakis)". Click on "Sonny Kiriakis" in that phrase. This should bring you to Sonny Kiriakis without it redirecting.
  3. At the top of this page, click on "edit this page". You should see this on the first line:
 #REDIRECT [[Minor characters of Days of our Lives#Sonny Kiriakis]]
...Replace that text with this instead:
 #REDIRECT [[Jackson Kiriakis]]
...and then, go to the bottom, and click "Save changes."

If you take those steps, Sonny Kiriakis will redirect to Jackson Kiriakis instead. If you need any additional help with this, you can refer to Wikipedia:Redirect#How to make a redirect, or ask me a question on my talk page. Steel1943 (talk) 03:11, 21 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
