Period = posting probs
editWhy do some Wikipedia page URLs include a period at the end of the URL? This is not standard, and causes pages to not post (when a URL is copied 'n' pasted) on Facebook, among other things. 50.54.231.229 (talk) 17:33, 25 January 2015 (UTC)
- The answer to why is: because the article title includes the period, and the url is always just a lightly-encoded version of the title. But I added a redirect from the version without the period so that those other sites can still link to here even when they strip off the period. —David Eppstein (talk) 18:53, 25 January 2015 (UTC)
Is he still alive?

Can you please supply sources? It would be good to add this to the article, but we can't do it unless we can document it. —David Eppstein (talk) 01:01, 12 March 2009 (UTC)Never mind, it's there now. Thanks for finding and adding this! —David Eppstein (talk) 01:08, 12 March 2009 (UTC)
