Redirect?

What is this thing with redirect? I tried to insert redirect command as described, but it would cause a redirect to the page itself. --PauliKL 15:02, 23 October 2008 (UTC)

The "My Language" should be replaced with the category title that you want to redirect to. "Add the following text, replacing My Language with the name of your programming language"
The link is actually the page that you want to redirect to. For instance, if I wanted a page to redirect to my user page, I would add #REDIRECT [[User:Mwn3d]]. If I wanted to redirect to IEEE, I would add #REDIRECT [[IEEE]]. Look at this page for another example. --Mwn3d 15:55, 23 October 2008 (UTC)
