[edit] Ballad
You can "pipe" links so that the text displayed is not the link jumped to. If you look at Ballad now, you will see that I modified your change so that it still jumps to "meter (poetry)" but displays "meter". You can use this to correct links that point to the wrong article and still preserve the look of the text. Goldfritha 02:39, 22 October 2006 (UTC)

Gah, I knew that, but I'm tired today. x.x And, yes, I know replying like this makes me look stupid.
[edit] New WikiProject Illinois Collaboration Division
Hey, saw you were a participant in the Illinois WikiProject. I thought I would let you know that there is a new Collaboration Division up for the project. The goal of the division is to select an article or articles for improvement to Good article standard or higher. There is a simple nomination process, which you can check out on the division subpage, to make sure each candidate for collaboration has enough interested editors. This is a good way to get a lot of articles to a quality status quickly. Please consider participating. More details can be seen at the division subpage. IvoShandor 11:31, 10 March 2007 (UTC)
