I also found this curious, from the other thread. From
posts there, it does
seem to make some difference whether you're linking to an article that has
clear use to the project, a userpage that might be a bit more ambiguous, or
a jokish "homepage" for a group of users hosted in userspace. Not sure if
that settles the issue entirely, on its own, but it seems to be a useful
distinction.
I'm at a loss to think of cases where a domain redirecting to a given
Wikipedia page is useful to the project. Projects will often have a
WP: shortcut anyway, for instance.
But I also find it hard to see it as any more than "mostly harmless."
