Talk:Slash command

Deletion
I believe this page is, in fact, needed; prior to the redirect, searching for "slash command" (which was personally my first instinct on the topic) turned up 0 results. I'm going by the guidelines at wikipedia which say alternate names should be redirected. Correct me if I'm wrong or should be using something else for GuildWiki.

As for being a double redirect; Commands is currently under discussion for a move to Command. So, the logic was to use the latter and temporarily have a double now as opposed to having one later. --66.92.33.187 17:41, 8 June 2006 (CDT)
 * Personally, I'm against the idea of having redirects just for the sake of having them; but if some terminology is commonly used, then I agree that keeping it as a redirect is reasonable. I'll leave the tag for now, to get some more feedback on how common this term is used over "command" or "commands", or an admin might remove it sooner if they disagree with the tag.
 * On the redirect; the move tag has been on that article since April with no talk on it showing in its discussion page. I just started a talk on it.  To me, the current plural name is correct in that case, but we'll see if any further feedback comes of it.  My opinion on the redirect is that I would recommend not intentionally creating double redirects even in anticipation of an eventual change, as the Special:DoubleRedirects gets patrolled frequently by several people, myself included.  If the Commands article is ever moved/renamed, then the redirects can just be fixed at that point. --- Barek (talk &bull; contribs) - 17:58, 8 June 2006 (CDT)
