==Redirect oddity problem==
* I worked on previous pages such as [[Mario Kart 64#Drivers]], and [[Mario Kart Super Circuit#Drivers]].
* While editing, I noticed an oddity:
* I cannot put "<nowiki>{{color-link|Peach|Princess Peach|blue}}</nowiki>" because it will not function properly.
* The only way I can made this color-link work is having "<nowiki>{{color-link|blue|Peach}}</nowiki>".
* The user is supposed to go "Princess Peach" (article), not "Peach" (redirect).
* [[MarioWiki:Redirects]] states that "Linking to redirect pages is discouraged, so always try to link to the actual page name and use the piped-formatting to correct the name if necessary."
* Is this one case where it cannot be fixed?

:Use : "<code><nowiki>{{color-link|blue|Princess Peach|Peach}}</nowiki></code>"--{{User:Megadardery/sig|fixed}} 00:07, 4 July 2013 (EDT)
* Cool, tried it. It works. Thanks!
* By the way, I fixed a minor error on your part even though you tried to fix it.
* I didn't know there's another type of template that allows this; I checked {{tem|color-link}} before this happened.
* I read "Also see {{tem|color-link}}", and thought that must be for something else. I didn't thought it would be used specifically for redirects.
* I would've preferred if the message was more clear, regarding redirects to be specifically.
* It would say like "Regarding links specific to redirects, see {{tem|color-link}}". --{{User:RAP/sig}} 00:33, 4 July 2013 (EDT)
:It is not just for redirects.. It is for piping links.. So I prefer the wording as it. {{color-link|green|User:Megadardery|like here}}--{{User:Megadardery/sig}} 01:48, 4 July 2013 (EDT)
