Category page redirecting to non-existent page.

Please see the thread at http://badgerandblade.com/vb/showthr...ng-crazy-again (You have an administrator login account)

Here is the text of that post:

I'm trying to access the shopping by country page http://wiki.badgerandblade.com/Categ...ing_by_Country

I end up on a page that doesn't exists called Denmark (http://wiki.badgerandblade.com/Categoryenmark). There are no redirects that I can see and I cannot see anyone in the logs touching either page (so it wasn't modified)... Am I going crazy again?

Please let me know what the issue is, as it's causing a bit of grief over here.

I have a feeling someone renamed "Shopping by Country" to "Denmark" and it errored for some reason, leaving the page in limbo. The "Shopping by Country" URL points to a certain article ID. When VaultWiki looks up the article with that ID, it sees "Denmark", and forwards the user to the correct URL. This is different from a wiki redirect, which doesn't use HTTP redirects for logged in users, and is more a way of defining synonyms for articles rather than showing that the article moved.

Unfortunately as this error probably occurred some time ago we don't know why the article is now missing -- the history for what is now "Denmark" may or may not exist anymore. To get back at least the current version, go to AdminCP > VaultWiki > Namespace Manager. Next to Category, click [Rebuild].
