Another problem I've had. When I try to approve a submission that currently exists as a redirect, it gives me an error message of creating a page that exists as a redirect that doesn't redirect to the source article. I took that to mean "redirect to the AfC being approved" so I retarget the redirect page, but that doesn't work. How can you make it so that it approves the article and overwrites the redirect?

::This was always annoying to me, I suppose if the page doesn't exist we could have it overwrite with the contents of the sub and run cleanup, but that has abuse potential. My method is to CSD the redirect for housekeeping and mark the sub as under review. --[[User:Nathan2055|Nathan2055]][[User talk:Nathan2055|talk]] - [[Special:Contributions/Nathan2055|contribs]] 17:44, 22 May 2013 (UTC)
:: Can't the script replicate a [[WP:MOR]] that should allow any editor to approve the article and move the existing article to someplace simple like "''article name''/replacedByAFC" and tag it as [[WP:CSD#G6|housekeeping]]?

Anybody is invited to overtake, otherwise I will do it when I'm having time and other stuff is cleared (bugs, other TODOs)
