[edit] Berries

Wow. Someone really likes berries. I mean, I like a good berry now and again, but... wow. 4.231.160.56 03:38, 8 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Links for whortleberry and lingonberry

This doesn't seem to come up often enough to have made it into WP:LINK (at least, not that I found), but as a reader I find it annoying to follow two links in an article (in this case, "bilberry" and "whortleberry"), only to find that one is a redirect to the other. Giftlite, care to give the case for having them both be links? Kingdon 23:24, 26 March 2007 (UTC)

Kingdon, I saw the series "...including the cranberry, blueberry, bilberry or whortleberry, cowberry or lingonberry, and huckleberry," and I thought the other two berries deserved wlinks, as well. Maybe it would be better to use parentheses instead. Giftlite 15:07, 27 March 2007 (UTC)

I'm not sure whether parentheses would be controversial; at least in the case of cowberry there has been a lot of discussion about the names of those articles (see Talk:Cowberry). Kingdon 16:21, 28 March 2007 (UTC)
