Talk:Utah Territory's at-large congressional district

Redirect

This article is redirected to United States congressional delegations from Utah. All information in this article is included in its own section in the delegations from Utah page. According to WP:Redirect under the purposes of redirect, you add a redirect when, "Sub-topics or other topics which are described or listed within a wider article. (Such redirects are often targeted to a particular section of the article.)" Bgwhite (talk) 00:28, 28 November 2010 (UTC)

The other 3 congressional district pages have info that is not on United States congressional delegations from Utah page, therefore they do not need to be redirected. The At-large congressional page is completely redundant and therefore should be redirected. Bgwhite (talk) 02:13, 29 November 2010 (UTC)

Please see other Territorial delegations from other districts. The format I've been editing is consistent with those. I've redirected your page to the more appropriate Utah Congressional Delegations....Pvmoutside (talk) 15:05, 4 December 2010 (UTC)

It doesn't matter what other territorial delegations have. Example... The Governor of Utah gets redirected to List of Governors of Utah, the Governor of California does not get redirected, and the List of Governors of Colorado gets redirected to Governor of Colorado. The majority, about 40 states, have redirection in place to go to the List of Governors of <insert state> article.

ALL information in the article is duplicated in the redirected (United States congressional delegations from Utah) article. The redirected article also includes MORE information. There is no reason to have two separate pages to maintain when having one is better... plus the redirect includes more information for the reader. In addition, the redirected articles is a Featured List article. This is all consistent with WP:Redirect.

Also, I use a targeted redirection. From WP:Redirect... It is also possible to create a targeted redirect, i.e. a redirect to a particular point on the target page – either a section header or an anchor. For example, Malia Obama redirects to Family of Barack Obama#Malia and Sasha Obama. Therefore, entering "Malia Obama" will bring the searcher straight to that section of the article Family of Barack Obama which deals with "Malia and Sasha Obama".

I may be wrong, but everything is consistent with what has been done on Wikipedia and WP:Redirect. You have yet to show proof that I am wrong or any evidence of your case. I've repeatedly asked for discussion on the talk page. This is the only time you've responded in four times. SHOW PROOF.

Why are you so against this?? The redirect gives the reader more information and the editor less work by only editing one page. Bgwhite (talk) 22:11, 4 December 2010 (UTC)

Please don't put me down on my talk page. It is unprofessional. No I'm not "fairly new". I have been told many times that there is no "standard" way to do articles, even articles that are in the same category. The Governor's lists was one place I was told this... Governor articles is one place I work to bring upto FL standards. Where does it say on Wikipedia that there is a "standard" to follow for articles in a category? I just don't know why you want an article with less information and more confusion? Bgwhite (talk) 19:17, 5 December 2010 (UTC)
