About

Redirection by best namespace is a redirection action that performs the same algorithm than the redirection by best page name but only for the home pages of namespace.

If two home pages have the same score, the smallest home page path is chosen.

Example

  • asked page : namespace1:namespace3:namepage
  • first home page : namespace1:namespace2:start (Score 5 = 2 for namespace1 + 3 for the home page)
  • second home page : namespace1:start (Score 5 = 2 for namespace1 + 3 for the home page)

We have the same score and the redirection occurs on the smallest home page : first home page.
