WP Conventions Hello and thanks for the welcome message Also a quick question I m doing a little housecleaning and am too new to know your the community s preferences If I see a name to clarify I don t know if it is best to create a redirect or to use a piped link Example for Eurlyne Arlene Howell I think I actually did both Now I have noticed that Erica Marie Commeau Miss Maine USA 2005 has a page without her middle name but don t know if it is better to pipe or create a redirect I would appreciate some direction Thanks Hi Brian when it comes to full names as in the example above its probably best just to get rid of the middle name this can get tricky in pageantry where names are often used in full where they are not used in full in common usage As for Erica Commeau that was probably my fault What you did with Eurlyne Arlene Howell was perfect just what I would have done had I picked up on it There s no hard and fast rule but I d say that if you can prevent a redirect by piping go for it or simply by chopping out the middle name as suggested Finally one other thing don t forget to sign off with four tildes when you reply on talk pages so your name and the date are stamped PagantUpdater
