Talk:Na'vi

Curious if this should direct to this page or the professional gaming team Natus Vincere.

Redirect change rationale

[edit]

I changed this redirect from the Pandoran biosphere link to Navi (disambiguation) because:

  • The esports team Natus Vincere is known primarily by the abbreviated Na'vi. With the recent International competition and stories like this one cropping up on every major news publication, I feel that there are likely a sizable number of people searching for information about this team, which is just a tad difficult without a disambiguation route to follow.
  • Avatar is now over five years old, so surely fewer people are now searching for articles about said film.

Considering these points, and that there are now two meanings behind the term "Na'vi", I did the sensible thing and changed it to a disambiguation link. Notice, I did not change the redirect to Natus Vincere, and I made sure that Avatar-related content has a top position in the disambiguation listing, so that it is easily available. If readers would like information on the Pandoran biosphere, they only need to click one extra link, something that Wikipedia readers are more than used to doing in the context of disambiguation pages. This has been reverted twice already, but no one has yet cared to engage me regarding the change. I hope that this will change if anyone thinks that this is a mistaken change!
