Not hard at all:
#REDIRECT [[Sayre's law]]
- jlgreco 14y agoWell of course. Somebody has done that now for that page it seems, but the general problem still exists: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parkinsons_Law_of_Triviality http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parkinsons_Law_of_Triviality The idea would be to make mediawiki itself automatically preform reasonable redirects when pages don't exist.
- ars 14y agoIt doesn't even need to redirect - it could just automatically include some search results if the page doesn't exist.

- jlgreco 14y agoThe Wikimedia Foundation wiki's might have that many uses, but I'd say most installations of mediawiki do not.
