why does this redirect from Magi-tech?

There's no mention of that on the page GeorgeWL 1990 (talk) 19:33, 29 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

The page Magi-tech was created in 2005 and redirected to Science fantasy in 2008. The target was changed to Fictional technology in 2020. Fictional technology was in turn converted to a redirect to Technology in science fiction in 2022 (following talk page discussion), and the double redirect from Magi-tech to Technology in science fiction via Fictional technology was turned into a one-step redirect by a bot.

Feels like it no longer makes sense then, to redirect to a article which doesn't mention the thing GeorgeWL 1990 (talk) 15:32, 30 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I agree. Two possible ways forward would be to either add something about magi-tech to the article or to bring Magi-tech to Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion. TompaDompa (talk) 16:10, 30 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

My first thought is to take the original article and remove the advert, and add it to here GeorgeWL 1990 (talk) 16:57, 30 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not sure I understand quite what you mean, but that sounds like an idea. Anything you add would need to be properly sourced, however (what little mention there was at the old version of fictional technology was not properly sourced). TompaDompa (talk) 17:17, 30 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
