==Help desk reply==
Hi, thanks for answering my question at the help desk. :-) If I may ask you another inquiry though, which field is intended for the name of the file on my computer and which is for the name on Wikipedia? I can't tell which; even though [[Help:Upload]] explains ''how'' to make the image name different than what is stored on the computer, it doesn't say which field is which. Cheers, &mdash;[[User:Mizu onna sango15|<span style="color:red;">Mizu onna sango15</span>]]<sup>''[[User talk:Mizu onna sango15|<span style="color:black;">Hello!</span>]]''</sup> 00:02, 5 August 2008 (UTC).
:Hi Mizu; anytime!  It looks like you also asked this question at [[Wikipedia:Help Desk#Fair_use_template]] and [[User:Fuhghettaboutit]] got to it first.  As he mentioned, the Source Filename refers to the path and filename as it is on your computer (for example, C:\Documents and Settings\Pie4all88\My Documents\Test.jpg) and the destination filename corresponds with the image name as it will appear on Wikipedia (for example, simply Test.jpg).  Maybe we should make this more clear on [[Help:Upload]].  In any case, if you have any more questions, feel free to drop me a line!  &mdash;[[User:Pie4all88|Pie4all88]] ([[User talk:Pie4all88|talk]]) 20:51, 5 August 2008 (UTC)

== Lots of redirects ==

Hi

Why do you create so many redirects from false spellings? These should IMHO only be created when there's a significant reason to do so, i.e. if it is proven (ie using google or whatever) that the wrong spelling is being used a lot. We should not encurage bad spelling. --[[User:PaterMcFly|PaterMcFly]] ([[User talk:PaterMcFly|talk]]) 21:50, 19 September 2008 (UTC)

:Addition: Read [[Wikipedia:REDIR]] and [[Wikipedia:Redirects_for_deletion#When_should_we_delete_a_redirect.3F]]. --[[User:PaterMcFly|PaterMcFly]] ([[User talk:PaterMcFly|talk]]) 21:52, 19 September 2008 (UTC)

::Hi Pater, my general line of thought is that a redirect should be created if it is plausible for someone to type the text into the search box.  You're probably referring to the redirects I just added to [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:WhatLinksHere/Parallelogram|parallelogram]].  I can see someone typing "Parralelogram" into the search bar&mdash;it's easy to forget which letters there are two of&mdash;so I figure it only helps them find what they're looking for.  [[Wikipedia:Redirects_for_deletion#When_should_we_delete_a_redirect.3F]], as well as [[WP:REDIR]] and [[WP:R]], seems to support my point of view for the most part.  Here's a couple of quotes:
****"The purpose of a good redirect is to eliminate the possibility that an average user will wind up staring blankly at a "Search results 1-10 out of 378" search page instead of the article they were looking for. If someone could plausibly type in the redirect's name when searching for the target article, it's a good redirect."
****"Redirects are cheap. Redirects take up minimal disk space and use very little bandwidth."
****"[avoid deleting if] they would aid accidental linking and make the creation of duplicate articles less likely, whether by redirecting a plural to a singular, by redirecting a frequent misspelling to a correct spelling, by redirecting a misnomer to a correct term, by redirecting to a synonym, etc."
****"[avoid deleting if] someone finds them useful."
::The only guideline the redirects I created might be violating would be this: "[might want to delete if] the redirect page makes it unreasonably difficult for users to locate similarly named articles via the search engine."  I think the benefits outweigh the cost; while they might not be hit that often, I believe there will be people out there who will be able to find the article they were looking for more easily.
::Also, I don't think creating these redirects is encouraging bad spelling...quite the opposite, in fact!  Like it or not, some people aren't good spellers or don't know how to spell certain words.  Without the redirect from the misspelling, they would have a harder time finding the right article&mdash;and therefore the right spelling&mdash;when they would otherwise have to resort to a dictionary or a Google search.  One facet of the beauty of Wikipedia is that it's nearly all worked on by hand, allowing us to tailor search results in a way Google is not able to.
::So that's my general line of thought.  If you still dislike any of the redirects I'm making, feel free to list them at [[WP:RFD]] or ask for a [[WP:3O|third opinion]], which would probably be useful.  Talk to you later!  &mdash;'''[[User:Pie4all88|<span style="color:#0033CC;">Pie4all88</span>]]''' <sup>[[User talk:Pie4all88|<span style="color:#0033CC;">'''T'''</span>]] [[Special:Contributions/Pie4all88|<span style="color:#0033CC;">'''C'''</span>]]</sup> 22:28, 19 September 2008 (UTC)

::: I agree that this is a word that is often spelled incorrectly (and it is difficult to be spelt correctly), but I think some of them are not necessary nevertheless. At least all those with a plural form can IMHO be spared, because we're generally not using plural article names at all and the name will be autocompleted when you start typing anyway. --[[User:PaterMcFly|PaterMcFly]] ([[User talk:PaterMcFly|talk]]) 22:38, 19 September 2008 (UTC)

::::Well, I oftentimes just type "en.wikipedia.org/wiki/''Topic''" into the address bar of my browser, so I guess this would bypass the autocompletion in the search bar. :)  This feature can also be turned off, and not everyone's browser has AJAX, which is needed for it to work.  Creating a redirect from a plural form of the article name to its singular form (and vice versa) is specifically mentioned as an acceptable redirect, but this is from a plural form of a misspelling...I'm tempted to keep them, since people often do type plural words into the search bar and the redirects aren't causing much harm (since WP is not paper), but I can see how you might consider them unnecessary.  Do you think we should put in a request for a [[WP:3O|third opinion]] on this, or post to [[Wikipedia talk:Redirects for discussion]] or the [[Wikipedia:Help desk|Help desk]]?  &mdash;'''[[User:Pie4all88|<span style="color:#0033CC;">Pie4all88</span>]]''' <sup>[[User talk:Pie4all88|<span style="color:#0033CC;">'''T'''</span>]] [[Special:Contributions/Pie4all88|<span style="color:#0033CC;">'''C'''</span>]]</sup> 23:17, 19 September 2008 (UTC)

::::: That sounds reasonable. I'll post a request for another opinion at [[Wikipedia talk:Redirects for discussion]]. --[[User:PaterMcFly|PaterMcFly]] ([[User talk:PaterMcFly|talk]]) 09:19, 20 September 2008 (UTC)

SuggestBot picks articles in a number of ways based on other articles you've edited, including straight text similarity, following wikilinks, and matching your editing patterns against those of other Wikipedians.  It tries to recommend only articles that other Wikipedians have marked as needing work.  Your contributions make Wikipedia better -- thanks for helping.

If you have '''feedback''' on how to make SuggestBot better, please tell me on [[User_talk:SuggestBot|SuggestBot's talk page]].  Thanks from [[User:ForteTuba|ForteTuba]], SuggestBot's caretaker.

==Caption punctuation==
Hi Pie4all88. I noticed that you changed the caption punctuation on [[White Deer Hole Creek]]. It's not an Earth-shaking matter, but what the Manual of Style actually says is that full sentences in captions get terminal periods but that captions consisting of a single nominal group (a sentence fragment) don't. The inconsistency that you noticed was deliberate and correct. You can check this out at [[MOS:CAPTIONS]]. [[User:Finetooth|Finetooth]] ([[User talk:Finetooth|talk]]) 01:25, 13 April 2009 (UTC)
:Ah, thanks for pointing that out, Finetooth!
