Thread:Project:Current issues/Recategorisation of MediaWiki settings categories, discussion on restyling Template:CS cat header

For the second part, it's been taking a long time for the back-and-forth of replying, so I'm just linking the discussion here:
 * -- Template_talk:CS cat header

For the main part of this post, this is the current layout of Category:MediaWiki configuration settings:
 * MediaWiki configuration settings
 * MediaWiki configuration settings X.XX
 * MediaWiki configuration settings introduced in X.XX
 * MediaWiki configuration settings deprecated in X.XX
 * MediaWiki configuration settings removed in X.XX

As you can see, (1) and (2) are both duplicates, and they both have many translation pages! I think it's complicating and effort is wasted in these. But, these are just category pages. The only text content in (1) is provided in Template:CS cat header so the category pages don't need to be translated themselves, but (2) doesn't even use the template. As for the deprecated and removed categories, they seem fine so no complaints. The only reason I have found why this was done was from the Template:CS cat header template which says it was to make the naming consistent.

What would everyone say to making all (1) categories redirect to (2) pages? I have used a script to check what pages link to (1) and I have found that they link only to each other using the template, so no pages will need to be updated to remove double redirects. I could also make a script to perform the redirects.

I also have another suggestion of modifying the layout, which would involved only adding  in each page. But it may involve edit-spam so I'm not sure. Modified layout:
 * MediaWiki configuration settings
 * MediaWiki introduced configuration settings
 * MediaWiki configuration settings introduced in X.XX
 * MediaWiki deprecated configuration settings
 * MediaWiki configuration settings deprecated in X.XX
 * MediaWiki removed configuration settings
 * MediaWiki configuration settings removed in X.XX
