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
