I wanted to make a poll because there has been disagreements on which redirects should stay and which should go. The disagreements have mainly been for the first name redirects. (example: "Martyn" being a redirect for "Martyn Littlewood" or "Liam" being a redirect for "Liam MacKay") So, reply saying whether you think that these redirects should stay or go. The more people that vote no means they are going and the more people that vote yes means they are staying.

My Opinion: I think those redirects should go. They clutter the search bar and can make it confusing for new users. I just don't see a point in having them. And as for making it easier for editing pages, I don't think it is much easier than writing their full name. Also, if someone makes an edit or a new page without using the full name, then I will take responsibility for it and edit it.
