Talk:Cracked Armour

Perhaps make it a redirect like we did with Ray of Judg(e)ment (How do you redirect anyway? I always end up with 1. redirect ♥Thought ful♥  (Talk) 03:19, 15 February 2008 (UTC)
 * That is a rare expection, purely because it's how it is (mis-)spelt in-game. But we have specifically avoided getting into the whole creating redirects from British spellings to US spelling. The convention is US-english spelling only. --Wolfie [[Image:Wolfie_sig.jpg|19px]] (talk|contribs) 03:21, 15 February 2008 (UTC)
 * I do not recall any discussion of the avoidance of creating redirects from british to american spellings. Nor is there any policy that I'm aware of that states that we intend to avoid such a thing. We do indeed use american spellings in articles and article names but this is neither. This is a redirect. Redirects are allowed for common misspellings. Since we use american english, british spellings could fall under the category of common misspellings. Now, I agree we shouldn't go out of our way to create redirects for all misspellings, I can see little benefit to deleting something like this rather than make it a redirect. However, I would like to hear your opinion. &mdash;♥Jedi ♥ Rogue ♥ 03:27, 15 February 2008 (UTC)
 * It says right at the top of Misspellings that we use American spelling, not British. Ray of Judg(e)ment makes sense to have as a redirect, not because of American/British spellings, but because it SOUNDS like it should be Judgement, rather than Judgment --Gimmethegepgun 03:33, 15 February 2008 (UTC)
 * Well fark me! I got chewed out most loudly when I started doing this, now when I decide to help retain that convention (of no british spelling redirects), now told I'm wrong AGAIN! Jeeze, I can't win either way!! Am sure there's a policy somewhere, caz I got it shoved in my face at the time. Will look later, I'm taking a walk. --Wolfie [[Image:Wolfie_sig.jpg|19px]] (talk|contribs) 03:36, 15 February 2008 (UTC)
 * I knew it said it somewhere but for the life of me I couldn't figure out where. Still, I don't think that applies here. I believe that my first instinct would be to create a redirect rather than delete... (ec)> There is no policy about british spelling redirects. I wouldn't go out of my way to make them, but if someone makes one, i'm not going to delete it. It's not misleading, useless, inappropriate or directing to userspace. &mdash;♥Jedi ♥ Rogue ♥ 03:42, 15 February 2008 (UTC)
 * Anyway, while you're all at it, make sure to make redirects for... Armour of Sanctity, Armour of Earth, Weaken Armour, Kinetic Armour, Armour of Frost, Armour of Mist... and those are just skills, not even including all the salvage items with "armor" in the name, the numerous mobs with "armor" in their name. THAT is why we don't do it --Gimmethegepgun 03:52, 15 February 2008 (UTC)
 * Sorry for being bold and changing it to a redirect without consultation. It's more a case of me going along with these; Monk armour, Elementalist armour, Assassin armour, etc. I don't know why it shouldn't also apply to other ingame armor cases too. I mean, the guy that made it OBVIOUSLY searched for Cracked Armour and didn't get what he was looking for (And tried to make a redirect, just didn't know how to). Aren't we meant to make it EASY for people to find what they're looking for? It's not like he's a vandal or anything. It's an entirely legit reason to make a redirect.
