In general, it's prudent for a redirect naming a person, place, thing, or term to be mentioned in the article it redirects to. This category contains otherwise valid redirects which are not mentioned in their target articles.

If reasonable and practical, the articles to which the redirects point should be edited to include a mention of the redirect title, keeping in mind verifiability and reliable sources.

Editors who monitor this category will ensure that a redirect sorted here will either be added to its target article, retargeted, deleted following a discussion about the merits of the redirect, or noted as being valid despite no mention of the redirect at the target.
