-Reason: I should have said hexastick's are a type of polystick and a Sub-topic which is described or listed within the wider article. The alternate name is used only when talking about polysticks with hexagons. if searching for hexastick you would want to go to the polystick page.

Redirect request: Etymology of the Doab, India

• Target of redirect: Punjab, India#Etymology
• Reason: The word Doab is a combination of the Indo-Iranian words 'Dou' (two) and 'āb' (water), and thus the (land of) Two rivers. The two rivers are the Beas River and the Sutlej River. Sometimes, in English, there can be a definite article before the name i.e. the Doaba. The name is also sometimes spelled as Duoab or Douaab or Doaab.

It originally contained 5 rivers before the formal “Partition of the Punjab”, and Independences of India and Pakistan respectively, British influence and the influence of the Indian federal Government, so therefore its name came from the Punjabi word for five (Panj/Punj) and the word for river/water (ab).
