Redirects are used to forward users from one page name to another. There are several reasons to do a redirect.
- Among them are the fact that many websites will have automatic redirects for several registered domain names.
- Sometimes with a popular website, we just may want a handy reference to the site, i.e. Wikipedia instead of Wikipedia.org.
- Redirect sites that have mirror duplicate content! Please redirect secondary to primary domain.
Edit the article that you wish to redirect and replace the whole page with:
#redirect [[NewDesinationDomain.foo]]
Subsitute NewDesinationDomain.foo with the new URL
If WhatRedirectsHere is too loaded with pages, try this handy URL hack:
aboutus.org/EXAMPLE.COM?redirect=no&action=view
