Nope... I've tried about 6 different minor variations for <nowiki>#REDIRECT [[Aglet]]</nowiki> and can't figure out what I'm doing wrong. It seems to detect the # and assume i want a numbered list. If it's just an article, do i have to put something else on the front (like cunnan:)? - [[User:Taryn|Taryn]] 22:25 1 Jul 2003 (EST) |

:When you first save it you'll see it as an article not a redirect. If you look at the address bar you should see something like <nowiki>http://www.sca.org.au/cunnan/wiki.phtml?title=Aglets</nowiki><b> |

::I just re-read my explanation but dont think I was clear. The &redirect=no just stops it from acting as a redirect for <b>this</b> time you are viewing the page. It will, or should, work the way you'd expect when people come accross it later (they wont have &redirect=no as part of the address) - [[User:Tobin|Tobin]] 03:07 2 Jul 2003 (EST) |

"'doh!" (slaps head) - yet again defeated by my own eagerness... oh well - a few extra diffs won't kill us ;) - [[User:Taryn|Taryn]] 17:23 7 Jul 2003 (EST) |

==categories and this page== |
|||
*firstly the table looks mucked up (from ISBN down)- someone more savvy than me care to fix it? |
|||
*I think we need to add how to add categories, including how to add multiple categories to one article, here. Or a link to a page explaining when to use categories if that is really necessary. |
|||
I for one regularly need to look up this kind of information. |

*I managed to fix the table. For html geeks, it seems that a couple of unclosed paragraph tags were the cause of the problem.<br>As for categories, I could write something on how to do it. I'm not entirely sure that Cunnan has a coherent philosophy on the when though. If someone wants to put a policy in place I would be happy to go along with it. |

Ok, the redirection thingo doesn't work like the previous wiki - could you please tell me what the new way of redirecting is (and then I can go back and change the two pages I recently tried to put in).
An example of it not working is: How to edit pages -- Taryn 15:41 30 Jun 2003 (EST)
- Fixed now, you'd used the ever popular spelling of Cunan for Cunnan ;-) -- Tobin 19:23 30 Jun 2003 (EST)
Ah brilliant. My Bad :) Useful thing to keep in mind, though. Cheers - Taryn 09:58 1 Jul 2003 (EST)
