In-game message redirects

I saw some doubts if we need this: "For in-game messages, redirect the message (e.g. Something just walked over your grave. No, really!) to the article about the thing that caused it. If the message can have multiple causes, create a disambiguation page." I think this is not necessary and will clutter wiki with such messages, so I propose to delete that section. -- Derrek (talk) 18:56, 20 May 2014 (CEST)
