Wikipedia Today
Many topics are naturally referred to by different names. For example, baby and infant mean the same thing. But Wikipedia doesn't have a separate article for each synonym (one article defining babies is enough). Therefore, Wikipedia includes a method for linking synonyms so that they lead to the same article. This is done using redirects. To create a redirect, start a new page for the synonym and in it put only this: #REDIRECT [[Target page]] ...where the target page is the name of the article the synonym should lead to. When a user clicks on a link with the synonym, he or she is automatically sent to the [[Target page]]. Here's another example: Elizabeth II of the United Kingdom also appears under the titles Elizabeth II, Queen Elizabeth II, and Elizabeth II of England. Caveat: do not create redirects when you want to rename a page, because then the history of the page resides at the old title. Use the move tab instead, found at the top of every page, which also moves the history. Read more: Wikipedia:Redirect |
Welcome
My name is Leon, and I live in Vallejo, California, USA I'm a college student majoring in drafting. I've been an active Wikipedian for the past decade or so, and I'm a Wikipedia administrator willing to help you with your sysop needs. Although I'm moderately strict with the policies, I mostly use my admin powers for deletion, anti-vandalism, ban enforcement and unblock request handling. However, we all make mistakes. If policy allows, any other admin is free to revert any admin actions I have performed if they believe them to be mistaken or unwise. I'm interested in a lot of things, but my contributions here have been mainly related to popular music, San Francisco Bay Area bridges and structures, sports entertainment, Abrahamic religions, as well as web browsers and other Internet technologies. |
