Quoting Richard Foley <richard.fo...@rfi.net>:

I understand what you mean here, but there is room to wriggle.

I don't want room to wriggle here. I don't want the Perl community resorting to borderline underhand SEO tactics. I want us to follow the spirit of the Wikipedia rules, not just the letter.

Secondly, I don't think anyone was suggesting we remove the Perl page from WP, rather that we make one the main page and the other point to it. In effect having both pages/solutions at once and having our cake and eating it too.

That what we currently have. "Perl (Programming Language)" is a redirect to "Perl". That's how it should be. The proposal is to reverse the direction of the redirection - so "Perl" redirects to "Perl (Programming Language)". That is contrary to the way that Wikipedia is supposed to work.
