(Copy of discussion from Simple talk:) For a word like "knives" that has only one meaning (not "building" which can be a noun or a verb), do we want a page like knives or should it just be a redirect to knife? I think just a redirect is better. Either way is fine, but we need a rule so we all do it the same way. By the way, thanks to Rimshot for doing lots of transwikis. --Coppertwig 14:30, 6 August 2007 (UTC)Reply

Usually I would do a redirect, but knives is an irregular plural. The other reason for creating the page was to set it off from the verb form knifes. That's my answer, I guess - create redirects in most cases, but create a short article where a redirect might be misleading. --rimshottalk 14:36, 6 August 2007 (UTC)Reply
Ah, that makes sense. --Coppertwig 14:40, 6 August 2007 (UTC)Reply
