Empty talk pages of redirects

They are all empty talk pages of redirects to the List of General Hospital characters. They all have trivial edit history, not required for GFDL purposes. Initially the majority was nominated for speedy deletion under G8 (blanktalk) but since they are doubts this is ok, I am going for an MfD.See the discussions in Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard#Empty talk pages and speedy deletion and Wikipedia talk:Criteria for speedy deletion#Empty talk pages and speedy deletion. As you may can see some of them are already deleted after G8 by administrators. The list below is incomplete. Magioladitis (talk) 16:49, 24 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete all, (or at the very least, redirect) per my reasoning in this AN thread. –

  • Redirect all to Talk:List of General Hospital characters. While we could delete these, it's always possible that someone could stumble across one somehow and edit it to ask a question, make a suggestion, etc. Those sorts of things should go on the talk page of the redirect target, not the talk page of the redirect (unless it's about the redirect, but those don't usually happen). And if they have meaningful history, we shouldn't be deleting them. Cheers. --lifebaka (Talk - Contribs) 17:57, 24 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
comment I made a correction: I meant "Meaningless, not important, trivial edit history" Cheers, Magioladitis (talk) 18:05, 24 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete all or redirect all. The project banners should definately go as they put the articles into categories although they are just redirects. I don't feel strongly about deletion or redirection, but deletion is probably a little cleaner. – sgeureka t•c 06:30, 25 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep or redirect. I agree with what Lifebaka said. There's no point in deleting the pages altogether. -- Ned Scott 09:06, 25 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • First of all, everybody agrees that they should have not project tags (so in the best case they should be left blank) and that they have a not important edit history. Secondly, please note that for someone accessing these talk pages, should ho to the redirect (not the target article) and then check the talk page). There is a discussion for creating a new speedy deletion criterion exactly for this case. Lastly, in the beginning I wrote "they have meaningful history". It was a mistake "I meant they have NOT meaningful history". -- Magioladitis (talk) 10:14, 25 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Redirect all - this shouldn't really have to come to MFD to decide this.

  • Redirect all to the talk page of the target of the article page redirects. --SmokeyJoe (talk) 10:13, 27 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
