Hi All,
Within my wiki there is a need to select from a list of templates when creating a new page. This works well if a user edits the address bar to have the new page name. The MediaWiki:Noarticletext page has been modified to list the templates to use when creating the page.
However, if a user selects a wanted page, or enters the page name in the search field and clicks Go they are taken to a blank page. If they then click cancel they get the MediaWiki:Noarticletext page.
Is there a way of getting all pages that do not exist to redirect to {{PAGENAME}} and display the Noarticletext page?
Cheers

So, it fails if they follow a red link.
Edit Mediawiki:newarticletext and MediaWiki:Noexactmatch to match MediaWiki:Noarticletext
Hi Platonides,
I wasn't aware of them and editing them has fixed my problem.
Thanks heaps!
