== * Page Redirect ==

Use the following command to automatically redirect viewers from one wiki page to another:

<no>#REDIRECT NewPageName</no>

The command must start at the first character of the first line of the page. REDIRECT must be in FULL CAPS. When the page containing the command is viewed, the <no>NewPageName</no> will be viewed instead. Redirections are not recursive: only the first redirection will be used. To edit the redirected page, view the redirected page, then click the link in the redirection notice at the top of the page.--~~From UseMod:PageRedirect~~
