How to make a redirect
editTo redirect a page (1) to a different page (2), enter the following on the top of page 1.
#REDIRECT [[NAME OF PAGE 2]]
For example, to redirect the Cambridge University page to the University of Cambridge page, edit the Cambridge University page and enter:
#REDIRECT [[University of Cambridge]]
Don't make double redirects (a redirect that points to another redirect); they don't work, create slow, unpleasant experiences for the reader, waste server resources, and make the navigational structure of the site confusing.
Double redirects are usually created after a move when old redirects are left unchanged and pointing towards an old name.
Another type of undesirable redirect is a self-redirect: an article that redirects to itself through a redirect.
To go back and edit your redirect after it's working, add ?redirect=no to the end of the URL for your redirect:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cambridge_University?redirect=no
