No, please do not delete such things as [[NPOV]] that is a redirect to [[wikipedia:Neutral point of view]]. Redirects do not skew our statistics because they are listed as so on the statistics page. They are also useful in that MANY links would be broken is they are gone -- besides I personally don't want to write [[wikipedia:Neutral point of view|NPOV]] each time I want to link to that article.
However, there is much other material that should either be placed in the meta or behind a new namespace -- wikipedia commentary: or wikipedia forum: perhaps?
I was going to fix the links as well, and there's already wikipedia: and wikipedia talk: namespaces. But your point about redirects is well taken--they are frequently useful, especially in Talk pages, and they don't mess up the stats, so I'll leave most of them alone. 0
