==How to redirect== To make a redirect page, the page which will be redirecting must be created. To redirect it to a selected page, simply write <code>#REDIRECT <nowiki>[[Target page name]]</nowiki></code> in it. When previewed, the page will show the following: #REDIRECT [[Brighter Shores:No page|Target page name]] Don't worry. It may not look like a redirect page does once created, but that is just because redirects don't show on preview pages. See below to see what a page looks like when redirected: [[File:Redirect.png]] {{Clear|left}} ===Redirecting to a category=== When creating a page that redirects to a category, using the format above causes the redirect page to be included in the category itself. To properly redirect to a category, use <pre>#REDIRECT [[:Category:CategoryNameHere]]</pre> The use of the colon (:) before the category instructs the Wiki software to treat the link as a normal link and not as a category to be included. ===Editing an existing redirect=== Editing a redirect page is like editing any other page: the trick comes in finding the redirect page itself and not its target. To access an existing redirect page, search for the redirect title (example "Cbow"). When the target page appears, a note underneath the target page's title will say something similar to "<span id='contentSub'>(Redirected from [[Cbow]])</span>". Clicking on the link in this notice will take you to the redirect page itself (pictured above) which can then be edited as normal. Alternatively, <code>?redirect=no</code> can be appended to a link that redirects (the question mark indicates the start of a {{wp|Query string|query string}}).
