Wiktionary:Votes/2009-12/WT: redirect to Wiktionary:, WS: redirect to Wikisaurus:

Redirect WT: to Wiktionary:, WS: redirect to Wikisaurus:

• Voting on: Redirecting the "WT" namespace to the "Wiktionary" namespace, and redirecting "WS" to the "Wikisaurus" namespace by way of namespace aliases, in a manner similar to how WP: redirects to Wikipedia: on the English Wikipedia. This would cause, for example, WT:Main Page/2009 redesign to automatically redirect to Wiktionary:Main Page/2009 redesign and WS:machine to automatically redirect to Wikisaurus:machine.
