After following Daniel's advice and muddling through the very useful shorturls.redwerks.org, I'm getting close... my previous short URLs don't work, though. For example, http://www.mattselznick.com/thehumanitycontinuum/wiki/Special:SpecialPages results in a 404. However, http://www.mattselznick.com/thehumanitycontinuum/wiki/index.php?title=Special:SpecialPages DOES work.
Thoughts / guidance on getting me this last yard would be much appreciated...!
