Create a normal redirect page, but put a colon before the word "category" in the link:
#redirect [[:category:Martians]]
This seems to work for me. Is this what you wanted?

Create a normal redirect page, but put a colon before the word "category" in the link:
This won't work. It will redirect to a page which contains the category introduction text, but won't display any of the pages that are in that category.

This is listed at Mediazilla as bug #710.
Sorry for the bad info.
Thanks, Angela, for setting the record straight.

Which makes it all the odder that cat:csd does work (I tried creating c:csd a while back and found it didn't work). Probably something hard-coded in?
