Completley redundant to {{Redirect-several}} with a custom text parameter. The number of cases where we would want to specify that several ambiguous terms redirect to a page but only link to one alternate target, which must end in (disambiguation) is miniscule and does not justify a standalone template. The creator added this to one article, Hong Kong, which I have just submitted an edit request for reversion as adding this template involved removing the useful link to HK (disambiguation). 192.76.8.74 (talk) 17:45, 18 September 2021 (UTC)

This template lets you specify one of the redirects.Faster than Thunder (talk) 23:12, 18 September 2021 (UTC)

@Faster than Thunder: You can do that allready using the "text" parameter of {{Redirect-several}}, e.g. {{Redirect-several|text=such as example|WP:example}} produces:

Several terms such as example redirect here. For other uses, see WP:example.

Given that the existing template allready has this functionality I don't see the need for this template too? 192.76.8.74 (talk) 23:17, 18 September 2021 (UTC)

• Delete A redundant template. --WikiCleanerMan (talk) 18:12, 18 September 2021 (UTC)
• Delete redundant and unnecessary. We don't need to list every title that redirects to another title, or indicate that they all exist. Elli (talk | contribs) 23:09, 23 September 2021 (UTC)
