I don't know about the PPD but shouldn't the MP18 and the MP28 be on the same page?

Who said we were worried about too many gun pages? You're creating a controversy out of nothing. And if we were to remove gun pages (I would LOVE to eliminate all video games and the weapons that only appear (in real life) in the mind of a video game programmer, like those prototype Russian or Chinese weapons, whom NO ONE has ever seen in a real movie, handled by HUMAN BEINGS.

Hey now, let's not get nasty. ;) I just thought I was getting a vibe about not having too many pages period.

Sounding like PersonOfInterest will never turn out well......;) Now as too the vibe about too many pages, that's Too many lame or STUPID pages. That is the vibe that everyone should be getting. Now if a gun deserves its' own page, and that it has unfairly been lumped into a lineage that is not really its' own, then yes. But also be aware that some lines of guns are still obscure and to split them up will just create MORE pages that users will have to track/hunt down in order to find.......Why do you think we lump ALL M1911s regardless of maker onto the M1911 page?

I think it's time for a thread lock, before this gets outta hand

In the limited context regarding the PPSh-41 and the PPS-43, I believe the lack of lineage and their potential page sizes would warrant separate pages for both. (The K-50M is there as well, as it should be, as it's developed from the PPSh, but the description appears to have been cut and paste from the Modern Firearms page.)

This is a valid topic for discussion and I don't see what MPM is getting worried over. He told funky not to change the page and he didn't change the page. Other people may want to weigh in on this and other pages. I personally think the S&W pistol pages are a bit too spread out, especially considering the massive lumps that are the Glock, AK-47, and M16 pages (which all look wonderful).

We do have the 4500, 5900, and 6900 series's on one page. The rest vary too much single stack, double stack etc. We try to combine when we can.

Looking up the S&W pistols I've discovered this little error.

http://www.imfdb.org/index.php/Smith_%26_Wesson_Escort

It redirects to

http://www.imfdb.org/index.php/Smith...sson_61_Escort

The problem is that is screws up the rotation in the article alphabetization.

Smith & Wesson 5900 pistol series leads to Smith & Wesson 61 Escort leads to Smith & Wesson 639 and so on and so forth until you get to Smith & Wesson CS 45 leading to Smith & Wesson Escort which is a redirect back to Smith & Wesson 61 Escort, thus the whole rotation repeats itself.

Redirect pages need to be taken out of the article alphabetization rotation.

Edit: And another error.

http://www.imfdb.org/index.php/Smith_%26_Wesson_76

This page is not in the rotation at all

http://www.imfdb.org/index.php/Smith_%26_Wesson_M76

the redirect page is in the rotation but only if you go backwards from
http://www.imfdb.org/index.php/Smith...I_Hand_Ejector

the M&P page (http://www.imfdb.org/index.php/Smith_%26_Wesson_M%26P) is also out of the rotation, does anyone know how this thing works?

Edit 2: From what I can tell it should go like this:

Smith & Wesson 6900 pistol series
Smith & Wesson 76
Smith & Wesson 908S
Smith & Wesson 916 Shotgun Series
Smith & Wesson 945
Smith & Wesson Baby Russian
Smith & Wesson CS 45
Smith & Wesson M&P
Smith & Wesson Mk II Hand Ejector

This page is not in the rotation at all, and neither is its redirect page

http://www.imfdb.org/index.php/Smith_%26_Wesson_M76

You're bitching about the actual redirect pages?

http://www.imfdb.org/index.php?title...rt&redirect=no

Get real.
