Fuhua.
NOT Fukka.
Fukka is fucked.
- I also hate redirects; personally I would have left the page as Fukka (as that is the universal name of the switch within the community) and begun the page with "Fuhua clone switches, better known as "Fukka" or "Simplified Alps Type I" …", since now every link to Fukka is going to be a redirect, and that's just ugly and irritating. (Isn't there also a template to adjust the page title?)
- Personally I would avoid merging/renaming any Alps pages until we settle on a nomenclature and classification, because the existing approach here is to split Alps-made from clone switches, when the prevailing terminology is to use Simplified Type * and, worse, "XM", to refer to the design of the switches. IMO there's not a whole lot of sense putting Simplified Alps Type I and Fukka on separate pages, or Simplified Alps Type II and XM on separate pages. Hell, I only presume Alps themselves made Type IIs originally before XM (whoever they are) took over.
- I did on the other hand create Type IV Simplified under that name because IIRC no-one knows for whether they were ever cloned, and the Type III information died with the GH wiki (they may have been clones)
