Cristian Bale

edit

Instead of just putting a link to a page, you can actually make it a Redirect. In this case, you had:

This page links to [[Christian Bale]].
which shows as: This page links to Christian Bale.
That requires people to click on the link to get to the right page.

Instead, you can just create a redirect:

#REDIRECT [[Christian Bale]]
With that setup, if someone tries to go to the Cristian Bale page, they're redirected to Christian Bale instantly.

Another way to make less work for yourself: I see you created a couple of redirects you didn't need to, when there was an easier way. In the Skilling article, you added a sentence with a mention of U.S. District Judge Sim Lake. When that one was a red link, you created a redirect to get to the Sim Lake article. Easier, is just to use an alias in the text. You do that by entering the article you want to link, followed by a vertical bar, and then how you want it to display. So, in this article, you could have just entered it as:

[[Sim Lake|U.S. District Judge Sim Lake]]

This displays as U.S. District Judge Sim Lake but links directly to the Sim Lake page without needing a redirect to get there.
