Re: [Wikitech-l] don't link to the same article by a million different names

1. [[ADSL]]
2. [[Asymmetric Digital Subscriber Line]]
3. [[Asymmetric Digital Subscriber Line|ADSL]]

which produce

1. <a href="/wiki/ADSL" class="mw-redirect" title="ADSL">ADSL</a>

2. <a href="/wiki/Asymmetric_Digital_Subscriber_Line" title="Asymmetric

Digital Subscriber Line">Asymmetric Digital Subscriber Line</a>

3. <a href="/wiki/Asymmetric_Digital_Subscriber_Line" title="Asymmetric

Digital Subscriber Line">ADSL</a>

I hereby propose input 1 now make output 3 instead of output 1.

What if, for some reason, [[ADSL]] would be changed to redirect to another page, or become a disambiguation page rather than a redirect? All those links to [[ADSL]] would then link to the wrong page.
