Toronto&mdash;Danforth
This is a redirect to a page called "Toronto(mdash character)Danforth" - I can't even get it to show up correctly. It seems to me the original page ought not to use the long dash in its name, settling for a plain old - character, and this redirect page should go away completely. -- Dcfleck 01:30, 2005 Apr 11 (UTC)
 * Redirects should be discussed on Redirects for deletion. RickK 02:10, Apr 11, 2005 (UTC)


 * True enough. But as long as we're discussing it ...


 * Keep This page exists for a practical reason: on many computers, the Wikipedia dash symbol is represented on the screen during edits by the following symbols: & m d a s h ; (no spaces in the original). There are many redirects like this on Wikipedia, all pointing toward the pages with "proper" symbols.


 * Also, Elections Canada uses a dash (rather than a hyphen) to spell the riding's name.


 * In other words, this is all above board. CJCurrie 02:13, 11 Apr 2005 (UTC)


 * Keep. Harmless and useful redirect. Should have been listed on Redirects for deletion. —Markaci 2005-04-15 T 23:17 Z
