"Boaty McBoatface"

[edit]

Is it possible to make it so that if you type the words "Boaty McBoatface" into the searchbar and hit "Go" it links to Riptides page? I've been trying to figure it out to no avail.—The preceding unsigned comment was added by Borrisimo (talkcontribs){{#if:| {{{2}}}|}}.

Yeah, you make a redirect. west james/notirishman (talk) 20:42, 29 November 2017 (EST)
I am skeptical of the viability of making a redirect page for a memey one-off nickname. Grum (talk) 20:58, 29 November 2017 (EST)
Yeah I agree. I think redirects shouldn't be made if they aren't useful. -west james/notirishman (talk) 21:02, 29 November 2017 (EST)
This had been suggested on the IDW TF subreddit (reddit.com/r/idwtransformers) which is where I got the idea to perform the edit. If this is against the standard editing practice of the wiki happy for it to be removed, and thanks for the help showing a first time user on the wiki how to perform edits west james/notirishmanBorrisimo (talk) 10:14, 30 November 2017 (EST)
Could I also suggest one of you guys perform the deletion, as I'd be worried I'd accidentally delete the whole page by accident! Borrisimo (talk) 10:16, 30 November 2017 (EST)
You could blank a page, but only admins and bureaucrats can delete pages. -west james/notirishman (talk) 12:02, 30 November 2017 (EST)
