Forum:Redirected page, but talk page still exists??

I redirected a page on a wikia, but for some reason, I still see people are commenting on the redirected page as if the talk page still exists. I don't understand how this is possible, or how to fix it. The comments are not showing up on the redirected page's comments area. Applegirl (talk) 20:52, November 17, 2012 (UTC)


 * I don't know how much you know, so I'll start with the basics.
 * Redirects are special pages which point to another page so that visitors are automatically transferred to a different page.
 * There are two ways to create a redirect page: either manually, by inserting a redirect line at the top of the article; or automatically after moving a page.
 * You said you redirected a page, did you mean you moved a page, or did you do it manually?
 * If you added a redirect line to an existing page, then the comments on that page will remain present on the redirect page.
 * If you moved the page, and left a redirect, then the comments should have been moved also. (If not, contact staff: Special:Contact.
 * When you visit the address of the redirect page and are transferred to the new page, the redirect used is listed below the title of the destination page. If you click the to the redirect link there, you will be taken to the redirect page directly. You can also just add ?redirect=no to the end of the URL in the address bar.
 * On the redirect page, scroll down and you should be able to see the comments.
 * If you created the redirect page manually, an admin can still move the comments by moving the page over the destination page, undeleting the old content and using the page history to restore it.
