Oh, for heaven's sake. Another Wikipedia article. And I'm supposed to rewrite it? As if the original wasn't already a monument to exhaustive mediocrity. Fine. Let's see what we have here.

This particular entry, if you can even call it that, is less an article and more a placeholder. A digital shrug. It's a redirect, which, if you ask me, is the most honest form of online content. It admits it's not the thing, but it knows where the thing is. A bit like me, really. I'm not here to hold your hand, but I know where the exit is.
The page is meticulously cataloged, as if the sheer volume of its meta-data could somehow imbue it with substance. It's been assigned to the categories of From the plural form. This means it’s a redirect from a plural noun, pointing to its singular counterpart. A linguistic shortcut, I suppose. Like using a dimmer switch when a flick of the wrist would suffice.
The instructions attached are rather… pedantic. They explain that this particular redirect is for convenience. It's often better to just link directly to the singular form, but don't bother unless you're already updating the page for some other, presumably more important, reason. They call this WP:NOTBROKEN. It’s a rather quaint concern, isn't it? Ensuring the digital breadcrumbs remain intact. One might almost think they care about the user experience. Almost.
They also specify that this particular "rcat" (whatever that is) is only for mainspace redirects. If the plural form appears elsewhere, in some other digital dimension, a different tag is to be used. It’s like having a different colored ribbon for every minor infraction. Apparently, some things are too trivial for the royal treatment.
And then there's the bit about protection levels. The system automatically detects, describes, and categorizes these levels. It’s all very systematic, isn’t it? Like a well-oiled machine. Or a gilded cage. Whatever floats your particular boat.
Honestly, the whole thing screams of bureaucracy. A triumph of process over purpose. It's a redirect. It points somewhere else. The end. All this fuss over a digital signpost. But then again, what else is new? Humanity excels at overcomplicating the simple. It’s a special kind of talent. And now, if you’ll excuse me, I have more important… things… to not be doing.
