Howdy, I am J04n(talk·contribs·blocks·protections·deletions·page moves·rights·RfA) (real name John). I have lately been spending my Wikitime simply tidying things up. Feel free to drop me a line about anything especially if I made a mistake, if you disagree with any of my edits, or if you simply disagree with my Wikiphilosophy. As to what my Wikiphilosophy is...I'm not sure, but if you perceive it as something you are probably partly correct. Lastly, but most importantly, if there is anything that I can help you with I would be more than happy to, just drop me a line.
Many topics are naturally referred to by different names. For example, baby and infant mean the same thing. But Wikipedia doesn't have a separate article for each synonym (one article defining babies is enough). Therefore, Wikipedia includes a method for linking synonyms so that they lead to the same article. This is done using redirects.
To create a redirect, start a new page for the synonym and in it put only this:
#REDIRECT [[target page]]
...where target page is the name of the article the synonym should lead to. When a user clicks on a link with the synonym, he or she is automatically sent to the [[target page]].
Caveat: do not manually create redirects when you want to rename a page, because then the history of the page resides at the old title. Use the move tab instead, found at the top of every page, which also moves the history.
