Links to relevant discussions (where appropriate):
Edit period(s): Daily
Estimated number of pages affected: ~3 per day

Function details: Append User:EpicPupper/Redirect autopatrol through subst for users added to the list in the past day, with the granting admin for the first parameter. If approved, I'll move the page to template-space. This is beneficial as users may be confused on why their redirects are being automatically patrolled by a bot (and some of the redirects might not be under the default bot patrol criteria).
Please can you discuss this in the appropriate content venue first (perhaps Wikipedia talk:New pages patrol/Reviewers with a notification to Wikipedia talk:New pages patrol/Redirect whitelist). ProcrastinatingReader ( talk) 21:29, 15 April 2022 (UTC) reply
