1. Since wikimedia-gadgets#741 (specifically, 3e21765), RfD was using a returned `curtimestamp` to generate the log page. That query was only being done if the page wasn't a soft redirect, however, leading to NaN/undefined issues. Closes wikimedia-gadgets#861 by falling back to the previous client clock method. 2. wikimedia-gadgets#527 (44c0e42) added the ability to notify a redirect's target, but returns an error if the title is invalid, such as with soft redirects via {{wi}}. This now skips the notification in such cases.

In doing wikimedia-gadgets#862, I undid the intent of wikimedia-gadgets#714 to avoid the client clock as much as possible for the specific case of soft redirects being nominated at RfD. It never worked - thus wikimedia-gadgets#861 - but the idea is sound. This has softredirects go through the same `curtimestamp` query and "typical" redirects, but simply skips processing of target or section. It's not a free check anymore, but it should be incredibly infrequent and fairly quick.
