== Short URLs (1/27/16) ==
The goal is to get the URLs to look like www.mcnaircenter.org/wiki/Page_Title. Mediawiki has [https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Short_URL/Apache a page] for configuring short URLs on Apache.
First, enable the mod_rewrite Apache module (if it isn't enabled already). In Apache 2.4.7, this can be done from the command line:
$ sudo a2enmod rewrite
You can also check that mod_rewrite has been enabled by creating a phpinfo page and looking for mod_rewrite under the apache "Loaded Modules" section as described in [http://stackoverflow.com/a/10891317 this Stack Overflow answer].
== To-do list ==
