Consolidating a hyperlink

Post by Uncle Jesse »

I think it may be best if we use "ferment" as the main page for all the iterations

fermenting
fermentable
fermentation

For those who don't know, hyperlinking any of these like this:

[[ferment]]ing
[[ferment]]able
[[ferment]]ation

will send any of these key words to the page for ferment

I think it's a wise consolidation of numerous pages/references.

Thoughts?

Works for me. There's a number of situations like this or different entries with similar entries. I vote consolidation. I don't want to maintain multiple entries with very similar meanings.

Are we able to do redirects? So like fermentation, fermentable, fermenting would redirect to ferment.

Yes - Use this as the only thing on the page: #REDIRECT [[Redirected Page]]

Example page: https://homedistiller.org/wiki/index.php/index.ph ... edirect=no
