Broken redirect edit

Latest comment: 2 years ago2 comments1 person in discussion

I think there's something setup wrong with this page but I can't see how to fix it?

On the page Martin Williams (environmental scientist), I have added the markup:

(curly brackets)other people|Martin Williams(end curly brackets)

which automatically generates this...

This takes us to "Martin Williams (disambiguation))", which then redirects to Martin Williams. However, I think

(curly brackets)other people|Martin Williams(end curly brackets)

should actually go straight to the disambig page Martin Williams. I'm not sure where the destination of "other people|Martin Williams" is set or how to correct it to eliminate that redirect? Thanks if someone can fix this.... 45154james (talk) 10:09, 9 May 2022 (UTC) (edited slightly to make clearer) 45154james (talk) 13:11, 9 May 2022 (UTC)Reply

OK, I think I figured it out eventually from Template:Other_people, which I found pretty hard to understand. The correct syntax in this case is:

(curly brackets) other people|Martin Williams|Martin Williams(curly brackets) 45154james (talk) 13:40, 10 May 2022 (UTC)Reply
