User talk:Pattyman/Part 3: Difference between revisions

I don't mean to be confrontational; I just sincerely don't understand your reasoning. We're allowing redirects for those Pokemon because it would cause spoilers...? Except that the fact that they evolve is plainly visible both on the page itself (in the list of Pokemon Brock owns) and all over the place on the article to which they link. Plus, the very trivia point is ''about'' them evolving, so a person would be spoiled before they even get a chance to mouseover the text! I totally understand giving redirects in episode pages, etc, so that people can read them without being spoiled. But in this case, spoilers are all over the article already, so I feel like you're trying to bail the water out of the boat with a kitchen sponge, to use a colorful metaphor.

:What I meant to say was that it should be linked only to the Pokémon it was at the time instead of their evolved form. See [[Shamus]]'s page for example in how they linked for [[Ash's Tepig]] instead of Ash's Pignite on the top of the page as Shamus only owned it as a Tepig. It was even mentioned in his history page.
