Forum:Having trouble getting to redirect pages

I'm trying to get to a redirected page on a particular Wiki, but everytime I type in the name it goes straight to the page it redirects to without including the "Redirected from ..." line at the top of the page. This means I can't get to the redirect page itself. This happens on most of the Wikis I visit (Robot Wars, Thomas the Tank Engine, GTA) but other Wikis don't seem to have this problem (Star Wars, for example). Why do I not get this line of text at the top of the page anymore when it redirects? Christophee 02:27, 5 February 2009 (UTC)


 * Check your local wiki's MediaWiki:Redirectedfrom, probably one of the (many) things Wikia removed and won't display unless your wiki has the page. If you aren't a sysop there you'll need to have one create it. -- Sixorish 02:47, 5 February 2009 (UTC)


 * Hmm, this - "(Redirected from Robot Wars Wiki:Bureaucrats)", it works OK for me.. -- Sixorish 02:55, 5 February 2009 (UTC)
 * Yes, I see that too when I go to that page. &mdash; [[Image:BalisticSig.png]] 02:57, 5 February 2009 (UTC)


 * No redirect message for me neither. — TulipVorlax 15:09, 5 February 2009 (UTC)


 * I used Special:Contact (link above) as this need fixing fast... — TulipVorlax 15:15, 5 February 2009 (UTC)


 * Do you have javascript disabled? the link is added in after the pageload by javascript --Uberfuzzy 15:37, 5 February 2009 (UTC)


 * Why on earth would i have JS disable ?! Lol.
 * If it would help, i'm on IE7, XP. I just tried it with Firefox and the link show up as usual. So it's a problem with IE again. — TulipVorlax 18:34, 5 February 2009 (UTC)


 * This HardRedirect extension uses JavaScript AND Cookies, so if you have either of two disabled the "redirected from" message won't appear. --Ciencia Al Poder (talk) -WikiDex 20:30, 5 February 2009 (UTC)

Thanks for the replies, guys. Oddly, the redirect message comes up again for me on Robot Wars Wiki, so I can get to the page I needed to get to. I have no idea what the problem was, but it seems to be fixed now whatever it was. Very strange. Christophee 00:49, 6 February 2009 (UTC)


 * Same for me (Without changing anything in the browser config). — TulipVorlax 04:51, 6 February 2009 (UTC)
