Based on [[Talk:Tape-leg|this discussion]], there are several pages whose names only differ by the case of the first letter. I believe these are all topics whose names coincide with [[Strong Bad Email]] titles. Some of these links should probably be disambiguated [[Puke Pail|in order to avoid confusion]] as to which page should be linked to. This would apply only to the upper case titles since the Strong Bad Email titles should remain unchanged. Here's a table that list the known collisions:

{| class="wikitable"
|-
! Strong Bad Email
! Upper case title
! Proposed Upper case Solution (if any)
|-
| [[tape-leg]]
| [[Tape-leg]]
| Move "Tape-leg" to "Tape-leg (running gag)"
|-
| [[crying]]
| [[Crying]]
| Move "Crying" to "Crying (running gag)" or "Crying (activity)"
|-

| [[making out]]
| [[Making Out]]
| Move "Making Out" to "Making Out (running gag)" or "Making Out (activity)"
|-
| [[trogday]]
| [[Trogday]]
| [[trogday]] redirects to [[Happy Trogday]] as a filename redirect, while [[Trogday]] redirects to [[Holidays|Holidays#Trogday (January 13)]]. The latter should probably be turned into a disambiguation? (See [[Talk:trogday]] for some background.)

I don't know if there are more examples. If they are they should be added to this list. I'm not sure if this is the best solution (and if the links should be automatically moved). I welcome any useful feedback! --[[User:Stux|Stux]] 11:45, 27 February 2021 (UTC)

I definitely think the (running gag) suffix would help sort things out a lot. Heck, it would make the whole mess we've got with [[Stinkoman 20X6 Level 10]] easier to solve. [[User:Guybrush20X6|Guybrush20X6]] 21:37, 27 February 2021 (UTC)
There are a few more somewhat obtrusive filename redirects, such as [[toons]]/[[Toons]], [[games]]/[[Games]], [[fhqwhgads]]/[[Fhqwhgads]], and [[sbcg4ap]]/[[SBCG4AP]]. Are these redirects still necessary, since the subtitles project isn't really a thing right now?
As for the (running gag) suffix, I feel like the examples listed (with the exception of [[Tape-leg]]) aren't really running gags. A running gag is a joke that is repeated and developed over time, but these are just... occurences. But on the other hand, they're categorized as running gags, and "Crying (occurence)" isn't quite as catchy, so I guess (running gag) is fine.

So I've added the filename redirects to the list. Even though the subtitles don't work right now I still think they can be brought back to life would like to give them a chance. That said it would probably be good to explore the technical aspects of such a solution given the url changes between the old and new website (both of which are still active).
Looking at the content for [[Crying]] and [[Making Out]] I noticed that they're both , so why not "Crying (activity)"? If not running gag still works. --[[User:Stux|Stux]] 00:57, 28 February 2021 (UTC)
I don't have much to add here, but I should point out that filename redirects are good for more than just subtitles. They still work on the Homestar All-In-One script (or they would, if we fixed all the ones that are now changed). — [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 03:35, 3 March 2021 (UTC)
Another example: [[trading cards]]/[[Trading Cards]]. Also [[ghosts]]/[[Ghosts]].

There's also [[geddup noise]]/[[Geddup Noise]], the latter of which is a disambiguation page for [[geddup noise]]/[[The Geddup Noise]]. What should be done about this? [/wiki/Special:Contributions/Gfdgsgxgzgdrc https://web.archive.org/web/20211001000000im_/http://www.hrwiki.org/w/images/thumb/a/a2/Strong_Bad_in_small_picture_frame.png/18px-Strong_Bad_in_small_picture_frame.png] '''[[User:Gfdgsgxgzgdrc|Gfdgsgxg]][[User talk:Gfdgsgxgzgdrc|zgdrc]]''' 19:47, 22 March 2021 (UTC)
Bit of a late reply, but, regarding the filename redirects, I do still think they're useful even when they mostly apply to the old version of the website. For example, someone may follow an outdated link to the Homestar Runner website that ends up returning a 404 error, or a link to the old site that's non-functional in modern browsers, or even a Wayback Machine archive, and if they're familiar with the wiki, they may search it for the filename in an attempt to find what's supposed to be there. Even if it's decided that they should redirect somewhere else, the redirect target should at least add a hatnote along the lines of "'x' redirects here. For the toon with the filename 'x', see y", but I'd prefer OldHR filenames keep redirecting to the articles for their respective toons, games, and so on.
