[wp-docs] Redirecting Old Wiki

[Christian Balzer (TigerDE2)]

Hi!
As far as I understand, it's about redirecting on a per page basis.
What you do, basically, is to enter the following at the top of each site in 
the wiki (this example is for the non-existing page 
http://wiki.wordpress.org/SomePage): 

<?plugin RedirectTo href="http://codex.wordpress.org/Some_Page" ?>

This will redirect the user to the corresponding Codex page. By only 
inserting the line, and _not_ deleting the original content on the 
wiki.wordpress.org <http://wiki.wordpress.org> site, people still get the 
chance to view the original version if needs be by calling the original page 
like so:
http://wiki.wordpress.org/?pagename=SomePage&redirectfrom=
