Unused redirect and I find there is no reason to create this redirect, only just match module name. Hhkohh (talk) 19:26, 10 February 2021 (UTC)
- Delete I was considering saying keep because redirects are cheap. However, I noticed that it is a cross-namespace redirect, and those are generally undesirable. ―NK1406 talk•contribs 02:41, 12 February 2021 (UTC)
- Keep I just found Module:RoundN thanks to this redirect. I was trying to learn how Template:Round8 works; I saw
{{#invoke:RoundN|main|columns=3}} , and I wanted to see what that does; so I went to Template:RoundN, since I didn't know about modules. I wouldn't have found Module:RoundN if it hadn't been for the redirect. Joriki (talk) 23:39, 14 February 2021 (UTC) - Keep Template: to Module: redirects are normally harmless and, per Joriki, often helpful. There isn't a need to routinely create such redirects, but equally there isn't a need to delete them either. Thryduulf (talk) 02:30, 15 February 2021 (UTC)
- {{ping|Joriki|Thryduulf}} I did not find guideline which we must create these kind of redirect. If we input {{tl|RoundN}}, it will output error. Hhkohh (talk) 15:08, 19 February 2021 (UTC)
- Just because there is no guideline saying something must be created does not mean that thing should be deleted if it is created. Read Joriki's comment explaining how this is a useful redirect - transclusion is the most common reason why redirects in the template namespace are useful but it is not the only one.
