Have a question about how the TVTropes wiki works? No one knows this community better than the people in it, so ask away! Ask the Tropers is the page you come to when you have a question burning in your brain and the support pages didn't help.
It's not for everything, though. For a list of all the resources for your questions, click here. You can also go to this Directory thread
for ongoing cleanup projects.
It's a redirect, not a mistake. If you want to replace the redirect with new page, you'll have to edit it without opening the page (like changing url): edit window
.
How do I replace the redirect with the new url? Where do I type it?
I've already given the link to that for convenience, but currently I can't open it because either someone is already editing it or it has glitched.

Exactly how or where do I type this? [[redirect:The Santa Clause]]
I’m currently editing The Santa Clause so I can give the three films their own page. I’m also indexing them.
You replace the line that says redirect with the page content you intended to be there and save, like when you edit any other page.

...I think you're going to have to cutlist and remake your page for the first Santa Clause film — the "Funny Moments" subpage has its title spelled correctly, but I finally found where the parent page for the film had gone to, and its title is misspelled as "Film.The Santa Cluase 1"
Until next time...

Do I type redirect and then the film name? How exactly is The Santa Clause misspelled? I did index the funny moments subpage.
You spelled it "C-L-U-A-S-E" in the existing link, not "C-L-A-U-S-E".
Until next time...

I’m really confused on how I type the redirects. Can you please help me with what to do and explain it further? Be more specific.
- Get the writeup for the Santa Clause 2 page ready.
- Copy everything from the writeup
- Open this page
- Remove what's written there
- Paste your text in its place
- Press save
Thanks for the help Amonimus. I just didn’t want to be suspended if I screwed up. Can you open up another edit page? I’m going to redirect The Santa Clause 3:The Escape Clause.

For what it's worth, I moved some of the trivia entries for the individual films into their dedicated pages (i.e. Trivia.The Santa Clause 1, etc.).

Thanks for the help.
I’m making separate pages for the 3 Santa Clause films as The Santa Clause, The Santa Clause 2, and The Santa Clause 3: The Escape Clause. Two of them already have blue links which take you to The Santa Clause where it says aka The Santa Clause 2 or 3. How can I fix this type of mistake?
