Page names[edit]

Shouldn't this, AF+, AF, and AM link to their actual pages? Zharkaer 15:15, 7 August 2012 (EDT)

Not quite sure what you mean...do you mean linking to the template page instead of the article? Right now they link to their matching articles. ~SuperHamster Talk 15:57, 7 August 2012 (EDT)
What I mean is, the templates link to redirects, and not the actual pages. Zharkaer 16:04, 7 August 2012 (EDT)
