Hey thank you for the corrections, May I know the reason for removal of the Info-box below the page stating politics of Maldives? Just wondering. NormadicEditor (talk) 11:41, 16 December 2024 (UTC)
I am doing a Portal for Parliamentarians of Maldives as I think it's Necessary to categorise with the sub subjects as there are too many with the same names.
So, I made a bit of a mess here. I tried to create a redirect page (without fully understanding what I was doing) to act as a reference, but somehow it turned into a full-blown article. Then, when a helpful Wikipedian pointed out the issue, I tried to fix it… and ended up redirecting the Ahmed Haitham page to the wrong one instead. It’s like I set out to make a simple Wikipedia salad but accidentally cooked a chaotic lasagna instead. This whole ordeal has made me realize I need to retire my journo instincts if I ever want to earn my Wikipedian badge. Now, any tips on how to untangle this mess?

So, here’s the pickle: [[Shajaan Muaz Shaheem]] is now a redirect of a redirect to the [[Ahmed Haitham]] page. All I wanted to do was create a proper tag template for his wife, given the developments in his “threat” section, but somehow, I managed to create the Wikipedia equivalent of a boomerang. Now, when I click her name on his profile, it loops right back to his page with a cheerful little note saying it’s a redirect from her page. I know, it’s as wild as it sounds.

I see you’ve cleaned up the redirects thank you! My main goal was to make Shajaan Muaz Shaheem page into a proper redirect to the Ahmed Haitham page. How can I now convert her article into a redirect without turning the whole thing into another ravioli of chaos? NormadicEditor (talk) 13:46, 18 December 2024 (UTC)

I see! That's because Shajaan Muaz Shaheem was nominated for deletion. In the Articles for Deletion discussion, you can say to redirect to the Ahmed Haitham page. Hope this helps! Unilandofma(Talk to me!)14:00, 18 December 2024 (UTC)
