:I reverted the IO set to [[Nightmare]] instead of the redirect (and rolled back all the reference changes), and left [[Nightmare (Enemy Group)]] in place. Additionally, I added {{tl|otheruses4}} to the top of each to refer to the other article. This way all of the various DPL calls don't have to have a special writeup for a single IO set. IMO, more people are going to look up the IO than the enemy group; using {{tl|otheruses4}} instead of a redirect is completely viable. ~ {{:User:Aggelakis/Sig1}} 06:27, 13 December 2011 (UTC)

How to Proceed

So.... I am not at all sure how to fix the remaining pages that link to this one erroneously. I have done the best that I know how to correct those that I have, but I don't understand how DPLs work and they are what generate the Category pages. As far as I know, this is the first time that a situation like this has come up where a page would be equivalent to an IO name. At first I thought it would be a simple fix, but that soon turned out not to be the case. I just hope that someone doesn't have to go through and undo everything I have done so far.  :(
