   Format: MarkdownItexWe have two entries: [[Dan Isaksen]] and [[Daniel Isaksen]]. The pages are almost identical but the font sizes are not the same it seems. There is a redirect but a search on Isaksen give both. I thought redirects always avoided that so am a bit mystified. I cannot remember what the correct proceedure is to handle this so can someone else do it.

   Format: MarkdownItexThey aren't redirects (real pages always trump redirects) but they clearly should be. I guess that "Daniel Isaksen" should be the main page and "Dan Isaksen" the redirect. The "correct procedure" is to rename the old page something like "Dan Isaksen > History" and then add the redirect to the canonical page. There might be some cache stuff to deal with.
