Research direction

Start by locating the redirect keyword handling and the code that parses document titles. Compare the existing language-specific keyword sets, then determine whether the completed change should extract redirects from titles, provide a language-to-redirect table, or support both; done means redirects are recognized for the relevant languages without hard-coded assumptions.
