MediaWiki talk:Mainpage

Capitalisation link issues

When this page was created, the 'Main page' item in the sidebar was changed to match the rest of the list, with only the first letter capitalised. However, it also changed the link from Main Page to Main page, even though the correct location is the former, resulting in a redirect. This redirect is suppressed on the desktop site, though is still visible by watching the link change in your address bar. However, on our mobile site, whenever someone loads "en.m.wikivoyage.org", hits the home tab or clicks on our link in Google, '(Redirected from Main page)' appears under the page header at the top in normal text size. Not only is it clutter and a little confusing, it also is a bit unprofessional that our most accessed page requires a redirect.

Therefore, I propose deleting this page (reverting the default link to Main Page, avoiding redirects), and then modifying the sidebar item at MediaWiki:Sidebar to read ** mainpage|Main page , to continue to display as uncapitalised. It's a really basic edit which will simply achieve the original intention, but as we're dealing with high-importance MediaWiki pages, thought I better let people know before I do it (in maybe a day or so).

If there are no comments, then I will make the appropriate changes shortly. James A ▪ talk 13:56, 8 August 2015 (UTC)
