When you try the link to Story1, it will take you to the redirect. Notice under the title it says "Redirected from Story1".

Basic page naming, and some how tos

New page

Naming pages can be important when it comes to finding things. Fortunely there are lots of ways to cross index pages, so it is not that important, except for those who like to see things standardized.

Chris is used to using a capitalizing the first letter of only the first word, unless it is a proper name or something like FON. '''Remember there is a difference between Story1 and story1''', these are different pages.

Changing page names can be done. It is not fun, but it can be done.

Pages can be redirected to another page. Typing story1 will redirect someone to Story1.

==Page links on a page==

It is possible to have a link to a page, look different. Both these blue links go to Story1. Here is [[Story1]] in brackets but [[Story1|click here]] for a story about a nickname.

I typed in <nowiki>[[Story1]]</nowiki> for the first link and <nowiki>[[Story1|click here]]</nowiki> for the second link. The pipe (looks like '''|''' ) is the key to adding text that creates a link to a page.
