I can't tell you these days what people are normally setting the DNS
record expire times to.  Three days sounds reasonable.

Done.  I just created a new index.html that redirects to Main_Page.
You're quite welcome, BTW.

Dean:

Article titles are sort of case-sensitive.  Article names must always
start with a capital letter.  If you create a link to a new article that
starts with a lower case letter, such as [[access control]], the
software will automatically try to access (or create) the page
[[Access_control]].  Note that spaces are automatically converted to
underscores.

Wikipedia conventions (which I think we should follow) are that only the
first letter of the article title is normally capitalized.  The
exception being proper names, such as [[Austin_Powers]].

As for Main_page vs. Main_Page.  I have placed a redirect into
[[Main_page]] to point to [[Main_Page]].

To do this for any article, just have as the article's only contents,
something like this:

#REDIRECT[[Some_other_page]]

And given the above rules, why is it Main_Page instead of Main_page?  I
have no idea.  :-)
