Check if a Go redirect already exists

Before requesting a Go redirect, check that the name you want is available, and that a redirect doesn't already exist for the target page.

Go to go.warwick.ac.uk and select the Go.Warwick tab:
Enter a keyword in the List all redirects containing box:

For example, to check if a Go redirect exists for the Department of Philosophy, enter philosophy.
You can refine your search using the checkboxes:
- Redirect names: Search for Go redirects whose names contain your search term, for example film-philosophy.
- Redirect descriptions: Search for Go redirects with descriptions that contain your search term. For example, the description of the Go redirect crpl is Centre for Research in Philosophy & Literature.
- Redirect target URLs:Look for redirects that point to addresses containing the search term. For example, encfp redirects to:
```
https://warwick.ac.uk/fac/soc/philosophy/research/researchprojects/encfp
```
- Only show results that start with these letters – search all Go redirect names, descriptions or target URLs to find results that start with your term; for example, searching for phil with Redirect target URLs and Redirect names selected returns the results philosophy and philgradseminar but not libraryphilosophy
Select Search redirects.
