A '''redirect''' is a page which has no content itself, but sends the reader to another article or page, usually from an alternative title. For example, if you type "UK" in the search box, or follow the wikilink [[UK]], you will be taken to the article [[United Kingdom]], with a note at the top of the page: "(Redirected from UK)". This is because the page [[UK]] has the wikitext <tt>#REDIRECT&nbsp;<nowiki>[[United Kingdom]]</nowiki></tt>, which defines it as a redirect page and indicates the target article. It is also possible to redirect to a specific [[Help:section|section]] of the target page, using the <tt><nowiki>[[Page_name#Section_title]]</nowiki></tt> syntax.
