Hello, i am very new to mediawiki and i am helping an existing installation. We would like to move some pages to a new wiki and tried use the #Redirect directive with interwiki links.
This works so far but it issues 302 Found HTTP Status code. We would like to use the status code 301 to help the search engines. Can the #Redirect mechanism be used for this? The documentation at https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Help:Redirects did not indicate any solution. I found in the mailing list only this thread from February 2014 https://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/msg13247.html Also not conclusive but leaning in the direction of no, not possible. I tried to skim through the mediawiki codebase and found redirect handling in includes/MediaWiki.php L226 [1]. I cannot understand it fully, but it seems not to be possible. If there is no native/builtin way to do this, is there an extension which might be able to this (redirect individual pages via Status 301 to another interwiki page). thank you Christian [1] https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/source/mediawiki/browse/master/includes/MediaWiki.php;75160bdd3b4ac3642d147cda46e47c809999937d$226 _______________________________________________ MediaWiki-l mailing list To unsubscribe, go to: https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/mediawiki-l
