Need to fix Redirect

Ocean View, Hawaii redirects to Ocean View Estates and that's wrong. It should redirect to: http://wiki.riteme.site/wiki/Hawaiian_Ocean_View%2C_Hawaii

A search for the city should not redirect to what sounds like a development.

Hawaiian_Ocean_View%2C_Hawaii doesn't even appear on the disambiguation page. Rather confusing. Kristinwt (talk) 03:47, 10 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

This isn't just a development; it has its own post office. Nyttend (talk) 03:53, 10 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, this certainly is confusing. There are no "cities" in Hawaii with distict boundaries. I added a link from the "Ocean View" disambiguation page, since that is the more current name. HOVE was just the first development in that area and thus has the most history. The post office calls itself just "Ocean View" as do the residents generally. But I think Nyttend wants to keep the CDP names as used in 2000 as the titles of aticles, otherwise I would propose changing the "Hawaiian Ocean View" article to be called just "Ocean View" and reverse that redirect. Perhaps in the meanwhile just add a line to the other page also mentioning the name change, which hopefully will be picked up by the 2010 census. W Nowicki (talk) 18:48, 24 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
