Forum:Shared help redirects and title bug

Hello!

This is just a report, in hopes that it will help others, and maybe it can get fixed. I'll also report it as a bug.

I've figured out that the shared Help pages which are showing up as wanted pages on sryth.wikia.com are the pages that have been redirected on help.wikia.com. Knowing that, I can go through and fix them, but the only way I can figure out what to fix them to is by using the "Suggest Changes Here" link, which sends me to a deleted or non-existent talk page on shared help, and then going back to the main article from there to see where it has been redirected. Not exactly intuitive.

Also, on redirected help pages, for some reason the titles on the page are showing up doubled. As in "Intro to EditingIntro to Editing" on the Tutorial page. I've left that one redirected for now as a demo.

 * You're provocing more severe bugs with the hack fix you wish for treating that "bug". My 2ct.--PedroM (talk) 21:44, August 13, 2012 (UTC)


 * How so? Where's the hack? Pointing the links on our wiki to the correct shared help page doesn't break anything, and it doesn't hurt to ask staff to look into the problem with redirects. If there's not a good fix, then there's not. Psychoadept (talk) 21:48, August 13, 2012 (UTC)

We do expect the shared Help pages to show on Special:WantedPages, though we may takes steps to avoid that in the future. To remove them from that list, feel free to create a local page with one space as the entire content. We are working on resolving the issue causing the duplicated section headings.
