I agree. People often go too far, though, merging articles that were
quite happy as two separate short articles. I'm starting to get a
preference for a short article that says "Fooville was a small hamlet
in Ireland that was integrated into Dublin in 1930. For more
information see the History of Dublin", rather than just #REDIRECT
[[History of Dublin]], and hoping that at the time you look, the small
reference to Fooville is still there.
