Description Liangent 2010-07-31 05:23:43 UTC
If there's a redirect Wikipedia:RFA -> Wikipedia:Requests for adminship, send users trying to access WP:RFA/Jujutacular to Wikipedia:Requests for adminship/Jujutacular. It would be more convenient.
Comment 1 p858snake 2010-07-31 05:27:56 UTC
WP: is a name space alias of Wikipedia:, and RFA is a page in the Wikipedia namespace with a simple redirect, I'm pretty sure that it could/would break things if we did that due to the possibility of that sub-page having a redirect somewhere else.

Example: http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:RFA&redirect=no

(Moving into General/Unknown, It's not directly a search issue)

My first thought was only sending users accessing WP:RFA/Jujutacular with the Go button in the search box (and not links), so I put it in the Search component.
