Hello everybody,

short basic question: Can I disable "redlinks" in my old private MediaWiki 1.16?

-> If an article doesn't exists, MediaWiki should not create a hyperlink to (action=edit) in the article page where the "redlink" is written. (not via css .hidden-redlink a.new {display:none !important;})

Like:

In Articlepage:

if reference article exists = echo <a href="/wiki/Article-Name" title="/Article-Name">Article-Name</a>

else

reference article doesn't exists = echo <p>Article-Name</p>

Thanks :)

You should be able to do that using the LinkBegin hook.
