Problems with correcting years-old namespace errors

Recently, I've noticed for as long as four years, the pages for every Fairy Tail Spin-Off manga have been listed incorrectly as "Recap" pages. Normally, whenever a Spin-Off is added to the site, they'd be listed here under a media namespace, such as "Manga" in this case. Only yesterday had I created new pages under the appropriate namespace, but when I added the old pages to the Cut List, I failed to realize in my haste that most of them had gained a sizeable amount of inbound links over the years, with one having well over 500, which I've come to understand would make cutting them unlikely. I've tried creating redirects, but the old format doesn't seem to be working now with the updated site, and I don't think that would've been the appropriate action anyway. What can be done to correct these page errors?

Whatever the case, I've since removed all the potential redlinks I could find on the site that this would create. Here's a list of all the pages I'm trying to relocate:

• Recap.Fairy Tail Zero to Manga.Fairy Tail Zero
• Recap.Fairy Tail Ice Trail to Manga.Fairy Tail Ice Trail
• Recap.Fairy Tail Blue Mistral to Manga.Fairy Tail Blue Mistral
• Recap.Fairy Girls to Manga.Fairy Girls
• Recap.Fairy Tail Twin Dragons Of Sabertooth and Recap.Fairy Tail Rhodnite^note a misspelling that should have been Rhodonite to Manga.Fairy Tail Gaiden, as they are both two volumes in a three-volume subseries

I just noticed the larger, sticky namespace namespace discussion. I'll move my question there, so please close this.
