Article Title Appropriateness
Should we really make an article called Y, or the like? I mean, it's kinda like making an article for The or So. At the very least, I think these should turn into Y (Slash Command) or the like, since that will happen to work for these --GuyPerfect 16:43, 6 August 2007 (EDT)
- Like my edit notes say, I was very naive and somewhat childish back then. These articles are from when a bunch of abbreviations (LOL, RA, BRB, G2G, DM) were being added. I was going to do this for all 26 letters of the alphabet as well as all the short double letter aliases of slash comand.

- Generally speaking, anything like "Foo (Bar)" should probably either have a redirect from "Foo" to "Foo (Bar)", a disambig from "Foo" to "Foo (Bar)" and several other pages, or an unrelated article at "Foo" that refers to "Foo (Bar)" with {{otheruses4}}. Otherwise, it becomes a lot harder to find "Foo (Bar)". (And the primary point behind the parenthetical is for disambig purposes, generally. Otherwise you'd just call it "Foo".)
