+### Redirect
+We have two redirect plugins installed, one stores a master list of redirects - this was used to help fix broken links when we merged the WordPress and Dokuwiki into a single site. If you have a permanent redirect where you want to delete a page, ask in #vhs-wiki about getting something added to this list.
+The other redirect uses page contents to redirect to another page: `~~REDIRECT>namespace:page~~`
