Vasiriki Abou Diaby
Are you sure his name only has one 's'? There are more Google hits for two rather than one: Double s has 547 while single s has only 97. Arsenal's official website spells it with two as well. Qwghlm 14:42, 13 January 2006 (UTC)


 * No worries. Given that he is commonly named as plain Abou Diaby, and that is how the club name him on the official squad list and how he's referenced on the BBC website, I reckon the article should be moved there. Qwghlm 15:01, 13 January 2006 (UTC)


 * Hey - just noticed you moved over the content by hand to the new page. Tip for the future - the Wikimedia software lets you move a page to where a redirect is pointing to it, as long as that redirect has never been anything but a redirect. That way the article history gets preserved. Not a big worry in a day-old article but it might come in handy for more developed ones. Qwghlm 16:53, 13 January 2006 (UTC)


 * Weird - I've overwritten redirect before quite a few times. There was a minor software upgrade recently - maybe they broke/removed that feature? Shame. Qwghlm 17:05, 13 January 2006 (UTC)
