I created a page for the New York State Banking Department. Someone has redirected the phrase "new york state department of banks" to the New York State Government page http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Government_of_New_York.

It is my opinion that all mis-phrasing of The New York State Banking Department name (new york state department of banking, new york state department of banks, department of banks of the state of new york, etc.) should be redirected to the New York State Banking Department Page: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/New_York_State_Banking_Department

Would you agree? If so, can you tell me how to fix this? I'm not a very knowledgeable user so any help is much appreciated!

 * For internal links, you only need to use the page name and surround it with double square brackets. Thus http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/New_York_State_Banking_Department becomes New York State Banking Department - and you would enter it on the edit page like this New York State Banking Department . Then to make a redirect you need to add #REDIRECT - e.g a redirect to New York State Banking Department will be entered on the edit page as a single line - #REDIRECT New York State Banking Department  I've added some useful links below for you   Ron h jones (Talk) 21:59, 24 February 2010 (UTC)
