Talk:Elite Missions

Singular, not plural
I don't think we really need this kind of redirect here. Basically, most (if not all) normal wiki pages are named after the singular form of the object they describe, and I don't see why this should be changed. Instead of linking to "Elite Mission s ", one could also link to "Elite Mission" directly. I really don't see the need for that redirect here. --Amakiir 20:11, 28 June 2010 (UTC)
 * I think you misunderstand. The plural is redirecting to the singular here; the article is titled "Elite Mission", and this redirect is here so that if people type "Elite Missions" in the search, it will point them to the appropriate (singular) article. --Kyoshi [[File:User Kyoshi sig.png]] (Talk) 20:55, 28 June 2010 (UTC)
 * I understand that the plural is redirecting to the singular, that's why I wrote the lines above. ;) What I am trying to say, is: Does the wiki really need this redirect in the first place? If yes, then wouldn't nearly every page need a redirect from its plural to its singular (or vice versa)? Am I the only one who thinks that this is horribly redundant? In my opinion that just clutters up the wiki with redirect pages. --Amakiir 21:12, 28 June 2010 (UTC)
 * There's no clutter. It helps because people don't search for the exact term, and because the search function is usually terrible. It's a user-side convenience that doesn't have any detrimental effect editor-side. --Kyoshi [[File:User Kyoshi sig.png]] (Talk) 22:06, 28 June 2010 (UTC)
 * As an example for how bad the search is, try typing "Elite missions" in the search box and clicking "Search", not "Go". --Kyoshi [[File:User Kyoshi sig.png]] (Talk) 03:17, 29 June 2010 (UTC)
