Wiki Question...

Post by Ryan »

I've begun adding some articles to the Wiki, most recently my own profile, Apolyton, Universalis, the PRH and an update to the Lac Glacei page.A (probably) simple question though - How do you get a page to redirect to another page?For instance, the Wiki highlights "Minorcan" for some reason. This page should (will) redirect to a page on "Minorca" eventually.Oh, and while i'm asking, is there a limit on how many images I should be uploading? I've kept it minimal to small-sized gif's, but I don't want to overload the server or somethin... Useless art is simply tolerated vandalism. I am a vandal.

There's already an Apolyton article, by the way - you should add to it, not create another. (Named Apolyton)#REDIRECT [[Flying Islands of Jasonia]] is an example of how to redirect.

If you want a link to another page directly from the text of one page, use double brackets. For example,Quote:Shireroth was founded by [[Erik Metzler]] in 2000will appear with "Erik Metzler" as a hyperlink; when you click on it, it will take you to the page on Erik. If you want to redirect to a page with a different name than the one you are using, you use a | symbol, like so:Quote:The Grand Commonwealth was defeated by [[Shireroth|Shirerithian]] forcesIt will show up as the word "Shirerithian", but when you click on it, it will take you to the page "Shireroth".To redirect an entire page to something else, use the redirect script Bill mentioned.
