[edit] Reason for redirect

I've noticed for over a year that people refer to the current Nios II using the name of its predecessor, Nios. It is very rare that someone wants to know about the original Nios, since Nios II completely replaced it a few years ago. So I've structured the Nios II redirect page and disambiguation page after the Johann Sebastian Bach article, which has the same issue: people who search for Bach most likely are interested in the composer, just as people who search for Nios most likely are interested in the Nios II. The less common meanings of Bach and Nios are listed on their respective disambiguation pages.

I thought long before creating a page with the name "Nios (disambiguation)", since it is not a standardized name (see 3.3 Page Naming Conventions in Wikipedia:Disambiguation) . However, conforming to the standard in this case doesn't help the Wikipedia users, and so I deviate from this convention boldly!
