Forum:Redirects and Other Link Issues

In the Manual of Style forum, a conversation came up concerning the use of redirects over the use of pipe links. For those of you unfamiliar with the matter, redirects are things like, while pipe links are like this. I'm not as familiar with this, so for a bit of background, see the MoS forum.

Recently, I have also noticed a bit of a dispute between the use of possessive links (Ace's vs. Ace's). While the first example is certainly less coding, I personally think that it looks better to have the entire word linked instead of part of it. Correct if I'm wrong, but I think that once the 's is added, it becomes part of the word, and I think it looks bad to have part of the word linked (after all, we do use brokers instead of brokers). However, there are people who think differently, as I learned when I discussed this matter with SeaTerror.

If there are any other problems that may fit under the umbrella of this blog, please add them. I thought it would be better to split this forum into two separate parts since I brought up two issues (however, I felt they were somewhat related, so I only made one blog).
