SNL Characters

Hello, I'm the one that's been extensively updating SNL character articles. I notice that you're doing the same, and I was wondering if you had any thoughts on the problem that's come up with all the stubs that have come from the process. Gay Hitler and Zagat's have been nominated for deletion, and I think we should create categories which can encompass all the characters. Two categories I have in mind are "Characters Appearing on Weekend Update" and "Short-Lived Recurring Characters" (appearing four or fewer times).

My main question is, do you know how to logistically make this happen? I don't know the technical aspects of it, particularly how to link characters to those pages when they're created. Only names with their own pages can be linked like this right? If it was part of a larger article, that kind of link would go nowhere, right? Leadpipevigilante 00:19, 2 November 2005 (UTC)

I'm going to stick this on both our talk pages, just in case. As far as I know, there are two ways to do this. One way is to create redirects from the character name to the page where their info resides. So for instance, Gay Hitler would redirect, presumably, to Characters appearing on Weekend Update (note the lowercase a due to the naming conventions).

The other thing we can do is use piped links with anchors on the list page to the correct part of the page you are speaking of creating (that I would help with, of course).

If you want, I can be in charge of the technical aspects of linking, etc, if you want to be the one to merge/compile the characters on their own page. Jacqui ^★ 00:40, 2 November 2005 (UTC)

Hey, first off, thank you for your work here on Wikipedia, but please don't redirect articles to other articles that don't exist. If you want to write an article on Weekend Update characters and then the redirect the individual pages there, go ahead, but create the page first. Thanks, and cheers. -Greg Asche (talk) 03:38, 3 November 2005 (UTC)

Regarding the Brian Fellow's Safari Planet article: please make an argument for redirecting the article to the SNL skits page and wait for some sort of consensus before reverting again. --DDerby-(talk) 17:01, 17 November 2005 (UTC)
