Well in that case, add "?action=edit" to the end.
The full URL would be http://<sever>/<wiki>/index.php?title=<pageTitle>&action=edit
Do you want to share your URL or is it closed?
Good luck! -Courtney

I'm afraid that won't work. I'm using short urls on the page so I can't tack on long url style initiatives. If you know the complete string to get to the page through long urls then I could type it in. I can see the id numbers for it in the database. I've created a second page for now but I really need to get rid of that other one.

I've just finished migrating and upgrading my mediawiki server from 1.8.2 to 1.13.2. I also migrated it to another server so I have the old version to refer to if needed. I got a complaint today that there was a page missing. I checked it and it just comes up completely blank with no 404 error or permissions error or anything like that. Its just a blank page.
After Platonides' suggestion, try adding &action=edit to the end of the blank pages' URL. Then visually scan the page for bad syntax. I have to do this all the time since my users forget to close tags from extensions and stuff like that.
