For: 14	Nom+For. DrStrange just finished another article. And it's quite an article, I might say. —Sir Socky (talk) (stalk) GUN SotM UotM PMotM UotY PotM WotM 19:22, 11 December 2009 For. Clever idea and the writer has made it work here. RomArtus*Imperator ® (Orate) 13:42, December 12, 2009 (UTC) For. First made me think, then made me laugh, then made me think again. King of the Internet Alden Loveshade??? (royal court)  17:24, December 12, 2009 (UTC) For. El Sid, the lazy one • parlez-vous franglais? 10:48, December 13, 2009 (UTC) For. ~ 13:51, Dec 13, 2009 13:51, December 13, 2009 (UTC) For. -OptyC Sucks! CUN23:10, 17 Dec For. Style  Guide 18:39, December 18, 2009 (UTC) For. Oh, I like that one. --UU - natter 11:59, Dec 24 For.--    23:04, December 26, 2009 (UTC) Present Just read it, and since its too smart for the front page it should go there nonetheless. People will actually have to think with this one. User:Aleister in Chains 20:06, January 1, 2010 (UTC) Oh, very nice. Very nice indeed. • • • Necropaxx (T) {~} Sunday, 02:50, Jan 3 2010 Blue There is no such idiom in Poland thus I needed to check it on Wikipedia (coz I thought Redd Herring is a politician due to that picture on the top of the article. Anyway I think page should be named Redd Herring not Red Herring. Now it looks like Redd Herring name is changed to Red Herring to look funnier. Nonsense to the rest of us! Sir Ptok-BentonicznyPisz tutaj • KUN 22:09, January 4, 2010 (UTC) For. –Flashfreez 02:09, January 9, 2010 (UTC) For. Thought I voted on this already, but I guess not... —Unführer Guildy Ritter von Guildensternenstein 02:33, January 9, 2010 (UTC)
Against: 0	No against votes
Comments	Comment. Just one problem. Header spells it Red Herring but article uses Redd Herring. Should that be change ? RomArtus*Imperator ® (Orate) 13:44, December 12, 2009 (UTC) I wanted to retain the proper spelling of the term "Red Herring" so that it simply looks like a page on terminology instead of a faux biography when looked at from the "outside". You do bring up a valid point because that particular effect would be lost on the front page as opposed to merely seeing a blue link in a list. Hmmmmm. Any opinions?--    13:59, December 12, 2009 (UTC) Would a redirect from Red Herring to Redd Herring (or visa versa) help? King of the Internet Alden Loveshade??? (royal court)  17:25, December 12, 2009 (UTC) That would be fine by me. Redirect Red to Redd. Of course, Mongo only pawn in game of redirects and that technofear of not dealing with such issues on a regular basis.....could you help me? I'm just a caveman. When a plane flies overhead, I think it's a giant bird in the sky and I cower in fear.--    18:02, December 12, 2009 (UTC) So the article should just be moved to Redd Herring, right? Alright, done. —Sir Socky (talk) (stalk) GUN SotM UotM PMotM UotY PotM WotM 12:45, 13 December 2009 Socky done fixed. King of the Internet Alden Loveshade??? (royal court)  02:42, December 14, 2009 (UTC) Way to fuck up the joke. Abstain till it gets changed back. -OptyC Sucks! CUN18:04, 15 Dec Go to Red Herring and you'll see the exact same article you saw before at Red Herring (with the addition of a little redirect notice). King of the Internet Alden Loveshade??? (royal court)  19:13, December 15, 2009 (UTC) Oh, is that how a redirect works? Thanks, I don't know what I would have done without your vast wiki editing experience. Abstain. -OptyC Sucks! CUN21:38, 15 Dec You're welcome. King of the Internet Alden Loveshade??? (royal court)  22:10, December 15, 2009 (UTC) Comment. How about my saying this doesn't flow to be satisfactory, the way I define it? Style  Guide 18:41, December 18, 2009 (UTC) Gah I know there's a deeper meaning in the article, but I'm just not finding it. :( • • • Necropaxx (T) {~} Saturday, 12:30, Dec 19 2009 I was shooting for: Politics is nothing more than swaying the sheep with pointless arguments meant to steer the public away from real issues and every political party plays the game just as bad as the other. Republicans and Democrats? Or just a bunch of whining toadies that don't represent much of anything? --    14:02, December 19, 2009 (UTC) Reread it. And got it. And loved it. • • • Necropaxx (T) {~} Sunday, 02:51, Jan 3 2010
