Codex is still at 1.4.8. I was able to move most of the contents, sans Images and history, to 1.5.7 several weeks ago but that is a copy on my local computer ;) > * A link I added before 1.5.7 uses the syntax > [[User:CoriSchlegel/Desktop/get_settings|get_settings]] and points > to http://codex.wordpress.org/User:CoriSchlegel/Desktop/get_settings > * A link I added just a few days ago uses the syntax > [[User:CoriSchlegel/Desktop/TinyMCE|TinyMCE]] and sort of points > to > http://codex.wordpress.org/index.php?title=User:CoriSchlegel/Desktop/TinyMCE&action=edit. > By sort of I mean that MediaWiki seems to think that the page > doesn't exist and thus provides the default "edit" link, but when > you follow the link you get to my page in edit mode but with > content.

Is there a running discussion I haven't seen? Under the User namespace you had the following documents: User:CoriSchlegel User:CoriSchlegel/desktop User:CoriSchlegel/Desktop/get settings User:CoriSchlegel/desktop/TinyMCE User:CoriSchlegel/rants It is likely the lower-case "desktop" that is causing your problem. That is an issue related to the fact Codex uses a setting that allows lower-case letters in the first digit of an article name. I don't know what the 1.4.8 setting is, but under 1.5.7 that setting is "$wgCapitalLinks = false;". You can see another example of the problem here: http://codex.wordpress.org/User:MichaelH/Wiki_Tips_and_Tricks#Linking_correctly_to_The_Loop I've taken the liberty of deleting and moving the two lower case desktop pages so they are now: User:CoriSchlegel/Desktop User:CoriSchlegel/Desktop/TinyMCE I did not change your rants ;) Regards.
