Page not needed[edit]

I don't think this needs to be its own page. It should be a section of the Ffestiniog Railway Magazine page. Similar applies to other index pages. Ed - Eheaps (talk) 15:26, 9 February 2025 (UTC)Reply

Have you logged that one can now enter Indices (or Indexes) into the search box anywhere and be helpfully routed regardless of whether you want the Festpedia Indices or an FR Magazine, FR HGJ or WHRHG Journal index? MarkTemple (talk) 17:21, 9 February 2025 (UTC)Reply

Yes, but the links can be set up to direct people to the relevant section of the magazine page instead of this short page. That would also make the information easier to find for people who start on the magazine page. Ed Eheaps (talk) 14:16, 10 February 2025 (UTC)Reply
I reckon that the following needs doing:
1) Make a direct link to the "FRM Index" page on HG web site from the "FRM" Festipedia page,
2)Make another direct link direct from the "FR Heritage Group" page to the "Journal Index" page on HG web site.
3)Leave the "Magazines and Journals Indexes" page as it is useful in allowing users to easily go from the "User friendly index" page (centre box) to all magazine and journal indexes.
How about that Ed? MarkTemple (talk) 07:32, 11 February 2025 (UTC)Reply
Now executed. MarkTemple (talk) 14:14, 13 February 2025 (UTC)Reply
I think you are right Ed! MarkTemple (talk) 06:16, 14 February 2025 (UTC)Reply
I've added a new section to the FRM page. It is now possible to make links to Ffestiniog Railway Magazine#Index. That way other pages with index lists can link direct to the information instead of having lots of short pages with duplicates of the same text...

OK Ed. I am happy for you to delete "Ffestiniog Railway Magazine Index". Are there any more redundant pages of the contraption I built? MarkTemple (talk) 12:50, 15 February 2025 (UTC)Reply
I'll convert the unneeded page into a redirect. I'll have a look at the others and see if anything similar needs doing... Ed - Eheaps (talk) 09:31, 17 February 2025 (UTC)Reply
I think I've now set it up so the actual information only appears on the individual journal pages and everything else is a link to that location. Ed - Eheaps (talk) 09:43, 17 February 2025 (UTC)Reply
Well done. I think we got there in the end! MarkTemple (talk) 11:36, 17 February 2025 (UTC)Reply
