Hi Linda, here is the instruction from Mediawikihttp://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:FAQ#How_do_I_change_which_page_is_the_main_page.3F :
What I do was to create another page with the title I want. Then follow the following Mediawiki instructions:
By default, MediaWiki looks for a page with the title *Main Page* and serves this as the default page. This can be changed by altering the contents of * MediaWiki:Mainpage http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/MediaWiki:Mainpage* to point to a different title. If this does not change the 'Main Page' link included on the sidebar at install time, edit *MediaWiki:Sidebarhttp://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/MediaWiki:Sidebar *.
Try it and see. It's very easy. If you have any problem, I can even do it for you, LOL.

Hi, my main page url currently reads:
http://www.dummipedia.org/Main_Page
My SEO advisor has advised me to changed "Main Page" to "free online encyclopedia". Is there any way to do that?
Thank you.
