If you want to keep doing it, I won't stop you. It doesn't hurt. I just don't think it's necessary in most cases. Redirects serve many purposes, and aren't only for searching. They're a way to simplify the writing process, because there are often many ways of expressing a particular concept, or related concepts dealt with one one article. We don't need separate articles for Archaeology, Xenoarchaeology, and Archaeologist, but at the same time, we don't need to constantly be writing archaeologist when having archaeologist as a redirect to archaeology/. Does that make sense? --~
