Or,
1. create the page under one of the names
2. then use the "move" tab to rename it.
3. Moving will cause the 2nd name to become the same name, and the first
name will redirect to it.
4. (I assume this just puts in a #REDIRECT command
I believe that wiki's search can be configured to show both the "main"
&
"secondary" names, or only the main ones. (But I'm not sure).
Also, more than one level of redirect does not work. E.g.,
1. you create an article titled "SX-445-D"
2. you move (rename) it to "wildcat"
3. you then move (rename) "wildcat" to "puma"
then going to "SX-445-D" will no longer automatically redirect you to
"puma". You'll have to edit "SX-445-D" & change its redirect
from "wildcat"
to "puma" (I hope this was clear)

Hi,
When you create a page named page1 and you want alias1 to be the alias
you should create the page alias1 like this;
#redirect [[page1]]
alias1 will now forward to page1

We have an internal Mediawiki 1.15 running on our
corporate LAN. We have
started to create a page for each of our products and we have a
technical name and a non-technical name for each of the products. So for
example, let's say a product's engineering name would be "IPZY-112" and
its
corresponding non-technical name would be
"Tiger".
Is there a way we to create an alias title (Tiger) for the page with
title
"IPZY-112"?
We thought about IPZY-112 (Tiger) but it wouldn't work since half of the
company refers as Tiger and other half as IPZY-112.
Is there any better way?
Thanks!
