Help talk:Article Creation

I stumbled upon this article by chance (there you go, I have not read everything ... yet).
The first section is not exactly what many other help-pages read. However, it would in fact make article creation simpler if we suggested what the two section really says, somewhat extrapolated here:
- Use the "create new xxx" feature but do not use any special characters.
- Within the article as such the editor should use correct special characters and continue as usual.
- Create a redirect by moving the page to the correct spelling
- Either the editor can "move" the page himself, or...
- An editor/ninja/admin moves the page when patrolling recent changes.
If you approve this we need some minor clarifications at some help pages, maybe at the create-new-xxx pages. This article needs no major editing though ;)
In my humble opinion I think this is easier than to create redirects as a second step as that part is done automagically when moving a page. The issue is rather to convey the message ;) -- Zimoon (talk) 15:47, 23 October 2011 (EDT)
