Pre-empt the node named 'Friar'

I'd like to propose that the gods delete the user named friar, and make Friar redirect to / be an alias for Level 9: Friar. This one is particularly desirable because level Friar is when certain very interesting powers are bestowed; wanting to link to that level's "home node" is therefore a very common occurrence.

Update:

Thanks to de-merphq for obliging. The "home node" of the Friar level has now been renamed as Friar. This allows people to refer to it directly by a meaningfully titled shortcut, Friar. (Of course, this is more useful in ephemeral communications, like the cb. Nodes should preferably link by node id - [id://17645].)

We're building the house of the future together.

I've renamed that user as _friar_. Not sure how to redirect Friar tho. Maybe just lose the level part? --- $world=~s/war/peace/g Update by erzuuli: It turned out that that user never contributed; so the account has been zombified; and the name has been set to Zombie friar.	[reply]

That's my inclination. But I'm afraid there may be some contexts out there in which the title will make less sense without the "level" part. demerphq++ for being da man yet again. We're building the house of the future together.	[reply]

there may be some contexts out there in which the title will make less sense without the "level" part. Then they should be given as `[ ... \|Friar]` ? Note that if we ever implement user-settable level titles, those "powers" nodes will be titled as just "Level 9", etc.	[reply] [d/l]

Very good proposition (++) wanting to link to that level's "home node" is therefore a very common occurrence Can't remember having seen that done yet... but it sounds more than reasonable. Cheerio, Sören	[reply]
