Confusing and Non-informative redirect[edit]

Should this page realy direct to Inquests_in_England_and_Wales, a pages that uses the term, put neither defines it, nor directs the reader towards any understanding of it's meaning? I note that the page Misadventure much more usefully redirects to Accident a page that describes the first term as being an archaic synonym for the later, and then describes the later. What we are doing here just seems designed to trip up new readers seeking to understand a legal term: "death by misadventure is a possible verdict for inquests where the verdict is determined to be death by misadventure." This sort of language seems very clear to anyone who already knows the terms in question, but is less helpful to those that actualy seek out the article for illumination.75.68.16.228 (talk) 12:03, 19 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I agree, this redirect is totally unhelpful. I will make it a stub. Dowcet (talk) 13:10, 3 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]
