in this change mike halterman says no need to go through redirects the point of piped links is for them to go to the correct name yes i know but as i cited above the disambiguation guidelines appear to recommend having the dab page link to the full name rather than to directly to the real name rome disambiguation links to rome italy even though the real article is at rome now maybe you're saying that as long as i needed a piped link to satisfy mos dab piping exception use piping to format or quote a portion of an article whose name consists of both a title and a clarifier for instance harvey film uss adder ss or school song i might as well go directly to the right page note a later sentence in mos dab this guidance to avoid piping means that a link to a redirect term will sometimes be preferred to a direct link if the redirect term contains the disambiguation title and the redirect target does not that could be read two ways as a way to avoid piping or as a preference for linking to the disambiguated name in preference to the ambiguous one anyhow i don't care a lot i was just trying to do it the right way
