The CZ format is to use bold only for the title word or phrase, and to use italics for emphasis of words. That is why I removed the bolds and changed them to links. If however, some of the new links that I made are self-redirects, then they should be changed to normal font or italicized font, but not to bold text. | The CZ format is to use bold only for the title word or phrase, and to use italics for emphasis of words.

:That's very categorical, and if it's a definite style ''in this situation'' then I appreciate knowing that. On the other hand I think the reasons I gave above make sense.

Bold vs links
The reason I put several terms in bold in this article is that they serve as anchors for redirects which point back to this page. So for example, at present Incircle redirects to Incentre and hence it is pointless to make it a link in the Incentre article -- indeed, I doubt that there will ever come a time when those two topics will deserve separate articles. But at present if someone goes to "incircle" and is then redirected here, they will expect to see the word they searched for highlighted in the introduction. Unless there's a good reason not to, I propose to go back to the style I was using before. Richard Pinch 07:14, 26 November 2008 (UTC)
Bolding and links
The CZ format is to use bold only for the title word or phrase, and to use italics for emphasis of words. That is why I removed the bolds and changed them to links. If however, some of the new links that I made are self-redirects, then they should be changed to normal font or italicized font, but not to bold text. David E. Volk 14:25, 26 November 2008 (UTC)
