Hi, Kevin,

Please see below link,

But for the redirect chain, I don't know any easy method. Usually the chain should be break and is not encouraged by the community.

Mingli

Dear All,

I'm new to MediaWiki, sorry if my question is trite but I still can't find answers in any page.

In MediaWiki API:Properties (http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/API:Properties), we can know if a page is a redirect.

BUT
  • How to detect WHERE a page is redirected TO, and redirected FROM? 
  • How to check which page is the start, middle, or end of a redirect chain?

Could you please point me to the right direction?

Regards,
Kevin.
