You searched for "Probabilities." Plural. An ambitious, if slightly imprecise, request. The system, in its infinite patience for such things, has correctly deduced you were looking for the singular concept.

On the Tedious Nature of Plurals
This page is little more than a digital signpost, a ghost in the machine designed to catch your typos and guide your wandering cursor. It has been dutifully tagged and categorized, filed away for eternity under the following designation:
-
From the plural form: A stunningly self-evident category, isn't it? This tag signifies that this page exists for one reason and one reason only: to redirect a plural noun to its singular counterpart. This is here for your convenience, a concession to the fact that precision is often the first casualty of haste. It prevents an error message, which would require you to think for a second and type the correct word. We wouldn't want that.

While these redirects are functional, a certain elegance is preferred. It is often considered better form to append the plural yourself, directly after the link (for example, writing
[[link]]sinstead of creating a redirect from[[links]]). It’s a minor point of digital etiquette, a sign that you’re paying attention. However—and this is critical, so try to focus—do not embark on a soul-crushingly pointless crusade to "fix" these redirected links where you find them. The principle is enshrined in a policy charmingly named WP:NOTBROKEN. If it works, leave it alone. Your heroic efforts are better spent elsewhere. Or not at all. -
A final piece of bureaucratic minutiae: this particular redirect category tag, this
rcat, is to be used only for redirects within the mainspace. That is, the primary articles that constitute the encyclopedia you're presumably here to read. Should you find yourself meddling in the arcane backrooms of other namespaces and feel the obsessive need to tag a plural form there, you are instructed to use the template {{R from modification}} instead. The distinction is arbitrary, vital, and not worth your time to question. Just follow the rules. It's easier than thinking.
