or in other words

:link_to model.name, :controller => 'controllername', :action => 'create_by'

controller functions dont accept arguments. so calling your function like link_to _created_by 'name' is wrong for several reasons:

1) you misspelled your function name _create_by instead of create_by 2) you passed name as an argument (you should use params)
