Hmm I did used to have a list as when I first started the project, there were a few users who were keen to help, but they've since fallen inactive and the list just got out of date as I worked on it alone. So... no list really :P I work on it by memory. However, you have been working on another project on my list that you can help out with a lot!

When the wiki was first started, it didn't have the ability to provide search suggestions. As a result, unless you typed the dragon's name in exactly, the article wouldn't come up, and lots of people mistook this for the article not existing and we got a lot of duplicate articles. So the redirects were made as a form of search suggestions. Now that Wikia has updated its software, 90-95% of those redirects are useless now- and there's a lot of them, more than there are articles in fact! You can help me by tagging the ones that need to be deleted by adding to the page.

The ones that need to be deleted are the ones that start the same way as the article itself. So, using Shadow Walker for example, "Shadow Walkers" and "Shadow Walker Dragon" can be deleted, because just typing even 'Shadow' will suggest the actual article. Stuff that doesn't need to be deleted are things like "Vine" for Dark Green Dragons, or "Gold/Silver/Bronze Prize" for Tinsels, or "Gold/Silver/Bronze Shimmerscale" for Shimmer-scales. The What Links Here tool is useful to see all the redirects that point to a single article :) If you're unsure, it's better to tag them just in case anyway, as I'll go through the list before using User:BluesonicBot to batch delete the tagged redirects.
