Thread:Project:Support desk/Is Mediawiki for me?/reply

Hi!

I am not sure, if you understood correctly how MediaWiki works when it comes to creating new pages:

When you create a link to any page in your wiki, then only this link, not the new page is created. You can also click it and you will see an empty page, but still no new page is actually created. The page first is created, when a user puts some content on the new page and saves it.

As for the second part of your question: You want MediaWiki to check the existing page texts, if a page with a title, which is mentioned in a page text, has been created. If it has been, MediaWiki should automatically link the words to this page.

A quick search did not show the expected result. Here is a link: http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/wiki/mediawiki/77464
