Need brackets around the link in #redirects
an odd little redirect bug
Line 187:
 
:::Ahh, I see what you mean. Yes, the brackets are required, at least at present; if they're not ''supposed'' to be required, somebody better let me know so I can fix it. (Though that would break some other things, pending some discussed changes to the database structure.) [[user:Brion VIBBER|Brion VIBBER]], Wednesday, May 15, 2002

'''Another redirect oddity'''
 
I came across a page ([[Giant Impact theory]]) which had a messed-up redirect. The redirect was coded thusly:
 
<nowiki>
#redirect[[giant impact theory]]
</nowiki>
 
And redirected to an empty page whose name was, character-for-character, <nowiki>#redirect[[giant impact theory]]</nowiki>. I put in a space and upper-cased the word redirect, and that fixed it. [[user:Bryan Derksen|Bryan Derksen]], Thursday, May 16, 2002
