Please do not add commercial links (or links to your own private websites) to Wikipedia. Wikipedia is not a vehicle for advertising or a mere collection of external links. You are, however, encouraged to add content instead of links to the encyclopedia. See the welcome page to learn more. Thanks. Angr (talk • contribs) 13:28, 11 April 2006 (UTC)

If you want to make sure that information can be found under more than one title, rather than creating two articles (which have to be separately maintained any time you want to make an edit), use a Redirect, which takes the reader from a less-preferred title straight to the more-preferred title and leaves only one article to work on.
