Should probably leave redirect pages (eg. Meteor Arrow) alone; don't delete them. Eventually, someone is going to try and find an article with capitals, they'll plug it directly into the url and they won't find it because anything after the first word needs to match exactly in terms of capital letters. (eg. 'Warlocks of the rising phoenix' is not the same article as 'Warlocks of the Rising Phoenix'). I know I've done it more than once, and I'm also aware that I could just use the Search box. Not sure if anyone else has experienced it though. --[[User:Kunama|Kunama]] 13:37, 17 September 2007 (GMT)

:I think I've noticed, however, that incorrect capitalisations in your search immediately take you to the correctly-uncapitalised page you are looking for, without needing a redirect. (Examples: Drinking Horn --> Drinking horn, Horn of Plenty --> Horn of plenty. Indeed, I categorised those capitalised enchantment articles as pending deletion because no such capitalised redirect equivalent exists for artefacts with uncapitalised names.) (The only exception seems to be the incorrect capilisation of minor prepositions and conjunctions in the title. For instance, Holy Church Of Achaea -/-> Holy Church of Achaea, Fire And Spice -/-> Fire and Spice, etc.) It's all very complicated, if you ask me! : ) --[[User:Krypton|Krypton]] 14:26, 17 September 2007 (GMT)
