  • The redirect from TRSI to here was strongly premature. The existing copy at TRSI is much more readable and already Wikified. Merging is welcome, but lets not jump the gun. —[[User:Radman1|RaD Man (talk)]] 23:23, 7 Dec 2004 (UTC)
  • Furthermore, the parenthetical "(demogroup)" extension is unnecessary in this case. I don't think there are any other Tristar and Red Sector, Inc.'s in existence to disambiguate from. Are visitors more likely to type "TRSI" into the search bar, or the full title? The likelihood of someone actually typing "Tristar and Red Sector Inc. (demogroup)" are virtually non-existent in contrast. I would like a RfC to open discussion on what the official article title should be, i.e. "TRSI", "Tristar and Red Sector, Inc." or "Tristar and Red Sector Inc." or something different. —[[User:Radman1|RaD Man (talk)]] 23:27, 7 Dec 2004 (UTC)
  • I redirected/merged, etc. just "to get the ball rolling." Sometimes things don't seem to move very fast, if at all, with some proposed changes at Wikipedia. I just did a Google search for "TRSI," trsi tristar, and "Tristar and Red Sector" and got 30,300, 2330 and 253 hits, respectively. So, chances are people would be searching for TRSI on Wikipedia. — CDN99 00:24, 8 Dec 2004 (UTC)
    • ...but people searching for "TRSI" might be looking for something else. The top hit on Google for "TRSI" is an anime publisher/distributor, The Right Stuf International. From here, Googling trsi "right stuff" gives 41,100 hits while trsi tristar gives 1,270. So don't assume that this is even the primary meaning of "TRSI". There are other meanings too. I conclude that TRSI may have to be a disambiguation page in the future. Having said that, I don't have a personal interest in this page, having passed this way because it was unwikified, stayed a while to ponder whether it was a copyvio, and ended up concluding it was a duplicate. I'm not going to fight over it. --rbrwr± 20:43, 8 Dec 2004 (UTC)
