-To create your own shortcut:
-# Type in the shortcut name in the search box.  Hit "Go".
-# On the search page, click the hyperlink: "create this page".
-# As all you are doing is creating a redirect page, type the following on the edit page:
-#* <tt><nowiki>#REDIRECT [[article name]]</nowiki></tt>
-# In the summary box, input a reason for what you're doing.
-#* Example: <tt>created shortcut to ''article name''</tt>
-# Preview the changes.  Make sure the hyperlink is blue, not red. Remember that red links are "broken", because the article doesn't exist yet under that title.
-# If everything is okay, save the page.
-Then, on the page the shortcut points to:
+===Pages with multiple shortcuts===
-# Click "edit the page".  On the first line of the article, simply insert:
+====[[Star Trek Expanded Universe:Quick index|Quick index]]====
-#* {{tlp|shortcut|''your shortcut''}}
+*[[index]]
-#After inserting that line, you should press the Enter key, thus creating a [[Wikipedia:carriage return|carriage return]].  This makes the editing text much easier to read.

-#Preview the page.  Make any corrections as necessary.
