Help talk:Redirect

if i put a "#REDIRECT [ [ Category:ABC ] ]" on a page, it redirects to that page, but it also adds that page to the cattegory.

So if ABC, abc and abcde all redirect to Category:ABC, all 3 of them end up as links at the bottom of the page.

3 Links from Category:ABC to Category:ABC isn't usful at all, how do i prevent them from end up in the category?


 * ... the colon prevents it being parsed as a category flag, but instead as a link. Note that redirecting category pages themselves is not a particularly good idea, as it can make the category system more confusing. Kirkburn (talk) 18:24, 1 June 2009 (UTC)
