Scope?

Do we want this used on topical articles? E.g., a redirect from "2017 in underwater basketweaving" to "Underwater basketweaving in the 2010s"? If this is not desirable, we should probably say so clearly or someone will use it that way. If it is desirable, we should say so clearly anyway, so people can be sure that's okay. — SMcCandlish ☏ ¢ 😼 07:44, 5 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
