<p>add new help for redirects</p> <p><b>New page</b></p><div>Sometimes a user may type in a search for an article which has more than one possible title.<br /> <br /> For example we may wish someone to find the article on Extended Basic when using the search terms ExBas or XB. <br /> <br /> To help out here we create REDIRECT pages which have just one line. <br /> <br /> We first create a new page eg XB. <br /> <br /> Only one line is required. The format would be:<br /> <br /> &lt;nowiki&gt;#Redirect[[Extended BASIC]]&lt;/nowiki&gt;<br /> <br /> Nothing else is needed. If someone then types XB and GO they will go to the article Extended BASIC.</div>
