This might’ve just been me being stupid at point of
use in AWB… But I’d for
some reason (not sure rightly or wrongly, my brains a bit fried atm), taken
that doing the parameters below, would give a list of what links to the
page, and what links to its redirects, but not the redirects itself..
http://en.wikipedia.org/w/api.php?action=query&list=backlinks&bltit…
Interesting. It seems blfilterredir is applied before blredirect, so
naturally blredirect won't have any effect. Your expectation that the
API should be less stupid in this case seems justified to me: it
should ignore blfilterredirect=nonredirects in blredirect mode, but
only in the first step. Other values of blredirect should not be
ignored and should be applied to both steps.
