Can you only make one wiki page? - WanderingWordsmith - 08-27-2014

I've been trying to create a page for my second character, but there's no create page link where there used to be. Is this intentional, or is there a bug in the wiki?

Can you not do the "search for character name" and then try to create a page through that? Where you search for a name and since there is no entry it asks you to create a page?

Ah, yes I can! Thanks. Big Grin

The "create page" thing wasn't compatible with 1.23, so I disabled it. ExKage's got the right idea, though: search on your character name, click the red link, and go from there. Smile

So um... what do you do if you've inadvertently and inexplicably linked your user page to a character page...?

Like a redirect? You can go back to the userpage with the redirect disabled by clicking on its link from redirect message at the very top (in tiny text)


RE: Can you only make one wiki page? - FreelanceWizard - 08-27-2014

Yep. It's the link that says "Redirected from (page)". Once you're back on your user page, edit it and delete the "#REDIRECT [[page]]" line to eliminate the redirect.

If you've really mangled things up with redirects, if I don't spot it and clean it up while doing RC patrol, you can just drop me a PM and I'll fix it for you. Smile

Thank you both. /grovel
