Hi Dmbaguley :) I hope you like the place and choose to stay.

Just a few tips, bold the title when it appears in your article (you can use '''bold''' to get bold), and stubnotes usually go at the bottom of articles.

Anyway, keep contributing, and have fun :) Dysprosia 10:13, 31 Oct 2003 (UTC)

I've noticed cases where it makes sense to have nonexisting article names redirect to existing articles, e.g. the nonexistant article "Merconium" should redirect to the existing article "Meconium". What is the most elegant way to accomplish this? Also, am I asking this question in the right place?

[1] Make a link to the non-existant article somewhere by typing [[merconium]]
[2] hit the preview button
[3] click on the red link that says "Merconium" (like here: merconium)
[4] click in the edit box, and type #REDIRECT [[meconium]]
[5] click the "Save page" button

You should now have what you want. -- Someone else 22:30, 31 Oct 2003 (UTC)
