Shouldn't this link to the stub Fireworks instead of the toon Happy Fireworks?

No. HR:fireworks.html is the URL of the toon Happy Fireworks. We always (when possible) redirect the URL filename to the actual toon/game/whatever. This makes it A) easy to search for, and 2) works with that Greasemonkey script thing, I think. If it was to point to Fireworks, it wouldn't be needed at all (because the lowercase would automatically redirect there anyway). --DorianGray 04:28, 16 September 2007 (UTC)
Precedent, though, is to special-case it in the GM script, rather than have a potentially confusing redirect... fhqwhgads doesn't redirect to Everybody to the Limit for instance, despite HR:fhqwhgads.html... it just links to Fhqwhgads. --phlip TC 04:31, 16 September 2007 (UTC)
Shouldn't that fhqwhgads thing be changed? It would be possible to make it a separate redirect page... — Defender1031*Talk 04:33, 16 September 2007 (UTC)
Yes, it would be possible, but it'd be potentially confusing. If you search for "fhqwhgads", are you more likely to be after Fhqwhgads or Everybody to the Limit? The special-cases are rare enough that the way it is now works fine. --phlip TC 04:34, 16 September 2007 (UTC)
