Skyrim talk:Request from

Poorly titled page

All other books and notes have the actual name of the document as the page title. This doesn't come close. Better would be just "Letter from". People attempting to look up this letter on the wiki do not think to use "Request from". The word "request" does not appear anywhere in the text of the letter and it is not in the note's title. The inventory title is, for example, "Letter from Jorn". The problem with this letter is that it can come from a host of NPC's who become aware of an assault by the player upon some other NPC in their settlement. However, changing the name to "Letter from" at least allows the search box to display the truncated first two words, instead of requiring the miraculous revelation to dawn on the visitor to use "Request from".

"Request from" is the actual name of the item, so that's why the page has this title. If the name that appears in your inventory is "Letter from," though, a simple redirect would fix the problem. ⇠eshe^talk 13:56, 24 May 2013 (GMT)

Wonderful!! Now never having done a redirect, let alone a simple redirect, is there a page of instructions you could point me to? Kalevala (talk) 14:52, 24 May 2013 (GMT)

Ironically or aptly, there is a redirect to the redirect section of links. Silence is Golden^{Break the Silence} 17:48, 24 May 2013 (GMT)

Redirect is done. (I stumbled across this problem when I tried the search box for a "Letter from Jorn" which failed. I thought "OMG!! There is a missing letter on the wiki!" After searching, I finally pasted the letter's text into Google and clicked their result to "Request from". Not exactly easy navigation.) As I think about this, would it be useful to have a redirect for each of the possible senders? I only know of a few:

Jorn, Lisette, Tolfdir, Illdi, Omulag, and Skulvar. Where might there be a list? Kalevala (talk) 18:59, 24 May 2013 (GMT)

The list includes over 75 NPCs, so it probably wouldn't be worth the trouble. Adding the redirect for the inventory name is helpful though, so thank you for doing that! — ABCface^◥ 21:08, 24 May 2013 (GMT)
