This page is a catch-all for a settlement which has been referred to but does not have its own page.

The likeliest reasons for this is that another settlement has used the {{Settlement}} template or that a player profile page has referred to this because they either are or have been a member of the town.

  • If you were just curious then sorry, the information you are after does not currently exist.
  • If this is not your current town and you know someone who is in the town, let them know, now adding content is their problem.
  • If you are a member of this town and your town mayor/elders have agreed to it then you can create or modify the page that this redirect is covering for.
  • Do not edit the pages of other towns unless you are an administrator or authorised, even then unless the content on the page is against the policies and rules of Wurm, the changes must be limited to correcting spelling and link errors and adding category tags.
  • If in doubt then do not touch the redirect. Ask.

If you have authority to create a proper page for the town then click at the top where it says redirected from town_name. On the page it takes you to click on edit and remove the #redirect, now add the content which showcases your town.

This is also used to clean up links to settlements which will never be added, good examples of this are where pages have been created for home server settlements. As the wiki grows it may be that such settlements will exist in an archive section or possibly be removed. If the latter or if existing links are modified then whenever the redirect to this page has zero references, that redirect may be deleted.
