[edit] South Pars / North Dome
A tag has been placed on South Pars / North Dome, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a redirect to a nonexistent page.
If you can fix this redirect to point to an existing Wikipedia page, please do so and remove the speedy deletion tag. However, please do not remove the speedy deletion tag unless you also fix the redirect. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this.

[edit] Boldface
Boldface from Wikipedia:Manual of Style (text formatting)
In the first paragraph of an article, put proper names and common terms for the article topic (including any synonyms and acronyms) in boldface. Do this only once for each case (e.g. avoid using boldface for both the article title in the lead section and the caption of the lead image). It is technically possible to bold Greek and Cyrillic alphabets, but this should be avoided; the purpose of the bolding is to separate the article name from ordinary text, and the change of alphabets does this by itself. If the article topic does not have a commonly accepted name, but is merely descriptive, the title does not need to appear in the first sentence, and is not bolded if it does.
Wikipedia automatically puts headings (section titles) in boldface. Bolded headings, though possible, will appear especially bold, and are almost never appropriate.
Use italics, not boldface, for emphasis in article text. Use boldface in the remainder of the article only for a few special uses:
- Table headers
- Definition lists (example: David E. Kelley)
- Volume numbers of journal articles, in some bibliographic formats
- Sub-topic redirects (where a sub-topic is a redirect to substantive discussion in a main article), the sub-topic should be boldfaced on first appearance in the target article or section, to indicate that it is an alternate title or sub-title

[edit] Re-Directs
Just a quick note about Wikilinki Re-Directs. It is a policy here to try and eliminate re-directs. So, if you want a Wikilinki to say something else, you use the "pipe" "|" command and put the direct Wikilink before the pipe and the alternate text after the pipe, example:
You type:
- [[Organized crime|the mob]]
Which appears:
Does that help? If you add new Wikilinki's test them to make sure that they don't re-direct and use the pipe that is not for smoking. ~ WikiDon (talk) 23:17, 27 May 2008 (UTC)
