So I tried to make this edit myself, but it was reverted pretty quickly. I feel like it would be more appropriate if this redirected to Instruments#Old Timey since it's actually about an appearance of a banjo. The Dancin' Bubs redirect on the other hand seems pretty flimsy, since there's neither an appearance nor sound of a banjo in Dancin' Bubs, just a leftover filename from before the music was changed. --Plastiware 20:56, 3 April 2014 (UTC)
- Capital-B Banjo links where you want. This must link to Dancin' Bubs because of the filename. --Jay (Gobble) 21:18, 3 April 2014 (UTC)
- PS. It's because of the Greasemonkey script. --Jay (Gobble) 21:21, 3 April 2014 (UTC)
