{Editprotected} Yom Hashoah is currently redirected to Yom HaShoa (though I have put in a request to restore it to Yom Hashoah). In the meantime, please change the link in the Holocaust Remembrance Day to Yom HaShoa so we don't have to deal with a redirect off the main page. Thanks, --Valley2city₪‽ 00:50, 16 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks SGGH, but after you fulfilled the edit request the move request (from Yom HaShoa to Yom HaShoah) was surprisingly fulfilled (the backlog on WP:RM is still a week). If you want, you can change it to Yom HaShoah, but the day is almost over in GMT and a single redirect won't screw up things like the previous double redir. Your choice. --Valley2city₪‽ 16:21, 16 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Meh, why not? All done. SGGH 19:10, 16 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
I thought we are not supposed to fix links to redirects that aren't broken. No ? Anyway, to request small changes on MainPage, please use WP:ERRORS next time. Response is usually quicker. --PFHLai 05:45, 17 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
