To User:PiotrGrochowski - why are we making a page that crashes? This is not a bug, this is just the way MediaWiki works. If you make a page redirect to itself, it will redirect to itself. It doesn't really "crash" my browser or anything, I just get a note that there's a redirect loop. What is the point of making this page? Mike Battaglia (talk) 13:45, 19 September 2018 (UTC)

If users want to see a crash page, they can thanks to me. PiotrGrochowski (talk) 16:23, 19 September 2018 (UTC)
