@ Dmehus: Thank you for fixing this redirect alongside googlewhore and I just work here. I was using WP:XFDC and unaware that the interwiki was malformed (XFDC wouldn't have picked it up because it wasn't a syntax error)! Deryck C. 13:02, 20 February 2020 (UTC)
This actually looks like a problem with
Twinkle, which was used to make the nomination, and the nomination template, which shows an error if it doesn't see #REDIRECT
(but tells you to ignore the error message for soft redirects). The part XFDcloser played was removing the wikitext generated by the nomination template - which should, for a "keep" close, be all that is needed to restore a redirect or soft redirect if the instructions are followed. -

first, then looks at document.getElementById('softredirect')
. There's an issue, of course, with detecting soft redirects on when not on the page content tab but rather the history tab; Twinkle will just halt in those cases, but I've already
proposed adding a note in those cases. ~ Amory (
