If I use re-write rules, I will be able to forward /fun/topic.asp to /Topic.
But when I use [[Topic]] in new MediaWiki pages, it will be /Topic and not be 
/fun/topic.asp.
I can't achieve URL consistency.

What I want is a custom url for every page. If I use [[Topic]] it should still 
point to /fun/topic.asp.


Thanks,
Castor

Right, that seems like a good solution. Google htaccess rewrite rules or 
something similar for your webserver if you don't use Apache.
