There is still a redirect even after that. It's really broken, I just need
to get those pages out and recreate them. Also, it would be nice to know for
future reference.
Thanks

Hello all,
I have a user on my website who's user page and talk page, through a
complicated set of circumstances, have become impossible to access
through a
sort of infinite loop of redirects. Anyway, I
believe the easiest way to
fix
it would be to MANUALLY delete these pages from
the database. How can I
do
this? What table(s) need to be edited? I have a
backup to test stuff on.
append "&redirect=no" to the end of the URL. For example on en.wiki
WP:ANI redirects to Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents
so if you append it to the url like so
"http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=WP:ANI&redirect=no" and
then you can access the page without the redirect and edit the page as
you wish.
