The wiki I admin recently turned off comments, and as a way of keeping an accessible (if hard to follow) archive, I added links to all talk pages of articles that had comments, linking to a prefix index of the comments (i.e. here). However, I didn't realize that the comment pages would continue to force you back to the article even after the extension was disabled (i.e. http://wreckitralph.wikia.com/wiki/Talk:Vanellope_von_Schweetz/@comment-100.1.148.66-20130331211058 redirects to http://wreckitralph.wikia.com/wiki/Vanellope_von_Schweetz?page=3#comm-30844).

Is there a way to prevent this behavior? I know "redirect=no" fixes the problem, but I don't know if it's possible to add that to the PrefixIndex behavior, and at this point in time, I'm not sure I'm willing to attempt to manually create an archive by, like, transcluding the comments to a page or something.

(I do know it should theoretically be possible to stop the behavior somehow (since it's not something that comes with a "vanilla" MediaWiki install (which Wikia is not at this point)), but obviously I wouldn't be able to do anything that requires access to the "other side" of the wiki without staff help (if it's something staff would even be willing to do, which I don't feel optimistic about).)

...So, is there anything I can do?
