This time, yours truly turned on the AutoCreatePage extension just for the sake of speeding up/automating redirect creation in FTA ("From the Author") pages. At this writing, ACP (as we'll henceforth abbreviate this tool's name) only works whenever placed in main-content (NS 0) pages. Since we're focusing on the FTA (3040) side of things here, here's a tip from MW.org themselves:
$egAutoCreatePageNamespaces
The list of namespaces in which calls of createpageifnotex are executed. If your call originates from a page not in one of these namespaces, it gets ignored. Defaults to $wgContentNamespaces. An example for an alternative setting:$egAutoCreatePageNamespaces = [ NS_MAIN, NS_USER, NS_TEMPLATE, NS_CUSTOM ];
As such, we're easily proposing:
$egAutoCreatePageNamespaces = [ NS_FROM_THE_AUTHOR ];
and calling it a day.
At this writing, the official upstream version of ACP is marked as "unstable" and hasn't received any updates since 2017; luckily, @Universal_Omega maintains a local rewritten version. This configuration case is no doubt unprecedented on Miraheze; bonus points if that goes through by tomorrow.
