Shortened redirect pages are necessary for better searching and linking within the wiki, as well as for generating shorter hyperlinks and interwikilinks to pages on mediawiki.org. The benefits gained from having both SimpleMathJax and Extension:SimpleMathJax on the wiki far outweigh any costs. Nicole Sharp (talk) 08:00, 4 June 2019 (UTC)

Use [[Special:MyLanguage/Extension:SimpleMathJax|SimpleMathJax]] or {{ll|Extension:SimpleMathJax|nsp=0}} on mediawiki.org.
That's even longer. It's just faster and easier to type "SimpleMathJax" when linking or searching, than having to type in "Extension:" as well, if it can be made unnecessary with a simple redirect: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/SimpleMathJax is faster to type and easier to share. For the redirect, there isn't any risk of conflation or need of disambiguation (like there would be for "MathJax"). Nicole Sharp (talk) 18:50, 5 June 2019 (UTC)
