Should we remove big box/button/banner "Start a new discussion" from the header?

Should talk pages of header subpages be redirected here?

[edit]

I found it surprising that Wikipedia talk:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents redirects to Wikipedia talk:Administrators' noticeboard, but Wikipedia talk:Administrators' noticeboard/Header and Wikipedia talk:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents/Header don't.

Should these talk pages of header subpages for AN and ANI be redirected to WT:AN? There are no talk page archives there, which makes creating these redirects easier. The older discussions could there be archived to archive pages here. The latest one is Archive 17, but time-wise more appropriate earlier archives could be found. —⁠andrybak (talk) 19:19, 17 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

 Done. I've archived old discussions from headers' talk pages, moved recent discussion here, and redirected the talk pages in these 23 edits. —⁠andrybak (talk) 15:02, 27 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
