Needed help with it. I've been trying to figure out how to do it for a project involving onions... PTF is a lot easier to write than Pikmin: Together Forever, Not only that, but I think abbreviations should just generally be a good sort for a redirect... Though I'll drop the idea if there is another thing possibly available for a PTF page– Thanks for reading this, bye bye now! CJ-Does-Pikmin (talk) 18:46, 9 March 2024 (UTC)

I'm not sure, I never saw a acronym to be as a redirect. Specially cause redirects aren't commonly used. But maybe King Boo can help. –

We don't really do abbreviation redirects for games, even for ones with longer titles. Well, MicrosoftPaintAdventures' version of Pikmin 5 did, but Saint got rid of it. The biggest issue with the abbreviations is that there would be SO MANY OF THEM, and several games share the same name. The latter issue can be kind of fixed by just including the distinguishing factor, but even then some of them would be the same. Overall, I don't think it's worth it. ~ Cheepy-Cheepy 14:43, 10 March 2024 (UTC)
