Page link not correct?

For some reason, the changing of the article name for the MiG-27 article went wrong. I asked one of the sysops for a small change in the title (by private message), and after this was changed (thank you, Hans), the page "has disappeared". It still is there, but not at the article index page. I can reach it by using a link in an other article, but not by clicking the link at the articles page.

Any idea what went wrong?

I'm not sure what you mean here;
The actual article is on http://www.scramble.nl/wiki/index.php?t ... ich_MiG-27, the deleted "page" was http://www.scramble.nl/wiki/index.php?t ... ich_MiG-27 (with a dash between Mikoyan and Gurevich).

The changing of the article name you did as such went fine; only the first page (the one with a dash) still exists afterwards, but only as a "redirect" (see the help page for a short note on that. What I did was removing this particular redirect-page as it had no function.

Hans,

If you look at this page:
http://www.scramble.nl/wiki/index.php?t ... raft_Types and click the MiG-27 link you get the page that says there is no text there (the second link in your reply). If I click the link in the Su-24 article I get the page for the MiG-27 (and that is the first link in your reply).

So, what I mean is, on the Aircraft types page, the link for the MiG-27 links you to a non existing page. Can it be fixed so it points to the right, existing page instead? I know I can't fix that, because I don't have the ability to edit the contents of that page.

I can't fix that page either, nobody can, because they are automatically generated, with the contents (links) taken from the <category> tags which are in the articles (thats why those tags or so important).

Only thing I can think of at the moment is that the cache of your browser still has the old version of this page somewhere.
Try to "force" your browser to refresh it, usually with a Ctrl-F5 (MS Internet Explorer and Mozilla Firefox at least).

Well, new day, new page. Problem solved, why, I don't know.

Probably what you said, about the page being cached, but now it is solved.

Thanks, by the way, for fixing the name of the page.
