Talk:Polish - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia For now, there is a lot of content which references Polish when they mean Polish language, Poland and Polish people (the last is currently a redirect to Poles, though this should probably be the other way around). I suggest that Polish should eventually be a redirect to Polish language. This page was last modified 12:55, 20 October 2004. www.wikipedia.org /wiki/Talk:Polish   (109 words)

Wikipedia:Redirect - Wikipedia In accordance with wikipedia:naming conventions (precision) it's best to have an article at a well-defined, unambiguous term, with redirects from looser colloquial terms, rather than vice versa. If the redirect is broken, meaning it redirects to an article that does not exist, it can be deleted immediately, though you should check that there is not an alternative place it could be appropriately redirected to first. If the redirect was created by renaming a page with that name, and the page history just mentions the renaming, and for one of the reasons above you want to delete the page, copy the page history to the Talk page of the article it redirects to. hy.wikipedia.org /wiki/Wikipedia:Redirect   (109 words)

Help:Namespace - Wikimedia Commons An exception to the rule that the link label is the name used in the wikitext and not the converted name, applies if the target of a redirect is expressed using a project-independent namespace name: in that case the converted name is shown on the redirect page, compare [1] with the preview of [2]. Also you may go to a project page of a target language from a project page of a language familiar to you (e.g.) by clicking an interlanguage link, if applicable. The last two are RTL languages which put the prefixes on the right. commons.wikimedia.org /wiki/Help:Namespace   (109 words)

Wikipedia:Candidates For Speedy Deletion [Definition] Before deleting such a redirect, it's a good idea to check to see if the redirect can be made useful by changing its target. Except for minor edits, please make use of the discussion page to propose changes to this policy. Some of these policies are still evolving, while others are long settled and largely uncontroversial.... www.wikimirror.com /Wikipedia:Candidates_for_speedy_deletion   (109 words)

Encyclopedia: Complete list of encyclopedia topics If you find that there is no article to redirect the link to, but an article should exist, you can leave a short note to indicate this so no one duplicates your work, and to give a clue as to why the article deserves to be written. Some of the links here can probably be "activated" with a sensible redirect; if you have a minute of spare time, please take a peek at some of the links. Please move the many computer viruses to List of computer viruses. www.nationmaster.com /encyclopedia/Complete-list-of-encyclopedia-topics   (109 words)

Help:Page name - From Meta; discussion about Wikimedia projects A saved redirect page shows the canonical form of the target, even though the preview renders the link in the usual way, compare [1] with the preview of [2]. The canonical form, shown in large font as page header, and in URLs generated by the system, is with on most projects with one capital; Klingon is an exception, see w:tlh:Chen'ay':h:h, where the c is converted to lower-case, and w:tlh:Qah:Page name, where the h is converted to upper-case. The canonical form of a page name is shown in large font as page header. meta.wikimedia.org /wiki/Help:Page_name   (109 words)

[Wikitech-l] cross-Wikipedia redirects This would be useful for meta.wikipedia and interlanguage redirects as well. Right now the #REDIRECT [[ns:link]] function doesn't work with namespaces outside of www.wikipedia.org (such as meta, and the various languages. It would probably be good (and easy?) to change it so that redirects can be set up naturally. mail.wikipedia.org /pipermail/wikitech-l/2002-October/001083.html   (139 words)

Wikipedia:Help - Wikipedia Redirect one article title to another by placing a directive like the one shown to the right on the first line of the article (such as at a page titled "USA"). If you are making an article about something that belongs to a group of objects (a city, an astronomical object, a chinese character...) check out if there is a WikiProject on the group and try to follow its directions explicitly. A Table of Contents will automatically be added to an article that has four or more sections. sa.wikipedia.org /wiki/Wikipedia:Help   (3120 words)

Slashdot 'Online Poker' Googlebomb They have made the wikipedia page the most valuable real-estate on the net regarding the given search term, so, now it's wikipdeia's problem, that page is going to be target of constant spam/attack/redirect attempts. Now that wikipedia is in the top page, every poker spammer in the world is going to be trying to hijack that page. If you really want to thwawt the link spammers, what you need to do is make sure 9 other wikipedia pages also get well linked for the phrase 'online poker', thereby meaning there are no [profitable] spammed linked on the front page of google results.. slashdot.org /articles/05/03/15/0035225.shtml?tid=217&tid=1   (5022 words)

Wikipedia:General discussion - Wikipedia There does not appear to be a link to Transwiki:Casualties of the September 11, 2001 attacks anywhere on the main page, but an old link to a redirect to the (now VFD'd) English wikipedia page remains on the bottom. The very existence of a separate memorial page for the WTC attack violates the Wiki's NPOV policy, by seemingly placing a higher importance of this event over other happenings considered by many to be tragedies. By hiving these pages off into a seperate wiki NPOV could be declared not to apply, so that families could write their personal tributes and that kind of thing. sep11.wikipedia.org /wiki/Wikipedia:General_discussion   (5022 words)

Wikipedia:Manual of Style - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia As a matter of truce both styles are acceptable (except for proper names), but a redirect should be created from the alternative form. Some style authorities support the mandatory final serial comma, such as Fowler's Modern English Usage, the Chicago Manual of Style, and Strunk and White's The Elements of Style, while other style authorities recommend avoiding the comma where possible, such as that used by The Times and The Economist. In articles about chemicals and chemistry, use the style of the International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry (IUPAC) for chemical names wherever possible, except in article titles, where the common name should be used if different, followed by mention of the IUPAC name. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Wikipedia:Manual_of_Style   (4500 words)

Wikibooks talk:Manual of Style - Wikibooks The contributor would think of it more as a cross-project redirect than something that merely should be mentioned "by the way," thus, they might believe that the module is somehow supposed to be sparse, and only link to the wikipedia. Giving links, to the wikipedia or other sites, is excellet for reference sections, further reading sections, and prerequest discussion sections. One of the most valuable things the wikipedia provides is its vast and rich links. en.wikibooks.org /wiki/Wikibooks_talk:Manual_of_Style   (4500 words)

Vaal Triangle Info Encylopedia - Wikipedia:Naming_conventions_(technical_restrictions) However, superscripts ¹, ², and ³ (which also exist on ISO 8859-1) do not have the same browser support limitations and can be used without problems, as long as a redirect from the title without the superscript is used. Leading and trailing spaces and/or underscores (_) are stripped, multiple spaces and/or underscores are squashed together to a single underscore, and page names consisting of only spaces and/or underscores are not allowed at all. Attempting to workaround using Unicode subscripts and superscripts does not work on all browsers (depending also on the installed fonts and operating system), and only a small number of subscript and superscript characters exist on Unicode. www.vaaltriangleinfo.co.za /wiki/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Naming_conventions_(technical_restrictions)   (4500 words)

Talk:Longest word in English - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Anyway, it appears that the original page consisted of one of the long words mentioned in this article (which I suppose is related to logology), and somebody made a redirect. I think the keyboard ones should be moved to the QWERTY article since they are much more about the layout of that particular keyboard than they are about the "longest word in English" which they clearly have no real claim to. The longest place name in the US is nto teh one written, i will change it tommrow, unless someoen else does. wikipedia.com /wiki/Talk:Longest_word_in_English   (3433 words)

Fly Rod Blank If it is a duplicate article, please redirect it to an appropriate existing page. There's lots and lots of obscure bands out there, Zoe =) --AW :::True, but they're from Fremont, where the other bogus band is from, and the IP address range of the guy who added their album article is close to the same as the guy who was giving us all the bogus albums. www.blownspeakers.com /pages3/33/fly-rod-blank.html   (1104 words)

Wikipedia:Why Wikipedia is not so great - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Why such transfers are not accompanied by a redirect from the removed page to the wiktionary entry is obvious, but is a source of confusion to those not in the know. This results in most images being raster, which can be far more difficult to modify, so the images tend to lag behind the text of the articles. Many people with causes come here to "get the word out" because publishers laugh at their stuff and site hosting costs money, so we get detailed articles about obscure activists, while the opposing establishment figures get stubs whose content is a litany of all the evil things they've done to the obscure activists, e.g. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Wikipedia:Why_Wikipedia_is_not_so_great   (2693 words)

Talk: AKFD - Open Encyclopedia Then, as a compromise, the redirect at 'AIDS Kills Fags Dead' slogan was deleted, after listing on wikipedia:votes for deletion for a week. For example, wikipedia:archived deletion debates and wikipedia talk:deletion policy/redirect should link to the AKFD/Talk/Redirect page. If this page was going to be redirected and protected, the logical target is Anti-gay slogan, where all other variants of AKFD redirect to (such as the capitalised version). talk.open-encyclopedia.com /AKFD   (2693 words)

Wikipedia:Votes for deletion/Denis nedry - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Denis nedry  ( http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Denis_nedryandredirect=no) ; merge and redirect Dennis Nedry. Denis nedry is a bit of a problem, it doesn't seem a useful redirect to me, but there are other issues.

Science Fair Projects - Talk:AKFD Then, as a compromise, the redirect at 'AIDS Kills Fags Dead' slogan was deleted, after listing on wikipedia:votes for deletion for a week. For example, wikipedia:archived deletion debates and should link to the AKFD/Talk/Redirect page. It wasn't clear if this needed to be done for other pages like Talk:AIDS Kills Fags Dead and which are redirects with no history anyway or whether those are just to be deleted. www.all-science-fair-projects.com /science_fair_projects_encyclopedia/Talk:AKFD   (2693 words)

URL redirection - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia For example, the URL http://www.wikipedia.com/wiki/URL_redirection (note the differences in the domain name) is first redirected to http://www.wikipedia.org/wiki/URL_redirection and again redirected to the correct URL: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/URL_redirection. URL redirection is a technique on the world wide web for making a web page available under many URLs. All of these status codes requre that the URL of the redirect target is given in the Location: header of the HTTP response. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/URL_redirection   (1857 words)

User talk:Moosh88 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia HOWEVER, if a Vilen becomes notable enough (say an emerging artist, actor, politician, etc.) to deserve his own article, then the creation of a Vilen given name page could be useful as a redirect toward that. So if anybody/thing comes to be known as just "Vilen" as a nickname or somethng, that would justify a disambig page, or a sort-of-redirect page like Rick. Although it is a common armenian surname, perhaps it belongs more on the armenian wikipedia as it does not meet the English wikipedia requirements for notability... en.wikipedia.org /wiki/User_talk:Moosh88   (1857 words)

Simon J Kissane/Old Talk - Wikipedia For instance, the [[CountriesOfTheWorld]] page, which used to redirect to [[Countries of the World]], would stop there, with the text "#REDIRECT [[Countries of the world]]" showing but not acted upon. It fails, just so you know, at the second redirect, not just when it will cause a loop. nostalgia.wikipedia.org /wiki/Simon_J_Kissane/Old_Talk   (513 words)

Wikitravel:Romanization - Wikitravel Note the McCune-Reischauer form in content and add a redirect if the old form is well known (eg. For articles about Taiwan, use Wade-Giles (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wade-Giles) romanization (without the necessary apostrophes) for older and well-known place names and either Hanyu pinyin (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pinyin) or Tongyong pinyin (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tongyong_Pinyin) for lesser known placenames (depending on which political party is controlling the locality, but we won't delve into that mess here). Hebrew romanization is highly nonstandard and complicated by the existence of numerous dialects with varying pronunciations. wikitravel.org /en/Wikitravel:Romanization   (897 words)

Talk:Santorum - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Santorum - Since this was deleted because of its content, I suggest reinstating it as a blank page with a redirect to Rick Santorum. I personally think it is reasonable to include neologisms such as 'feminazi' and 'santorum' in wikipedia. But to enable people to find the content, santorum should either be a redirect to wherever that content is, or a disambiguation page (perhaps also listing people with that surname). en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Talk:Santorum   (10679 words)

[EM] plurality, FPTP and runoff voting On wikipedia, they redirect plurality voting to FPTP voting, giving plurality a much narrower definition than I did. In here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Voting_system#Yes.2FNo_voting_methods runoffs systems are listed separately from plurality (which is assimilated to FPTP), but I would have done this: 1.
