For example, try https://www.fedoraproject.org/wiki/Council. I know we don't normally use such links ourselves, but people are used to that www prefix, and I know there are incoming links pointing to it in the wild.
www
I find it very frustrating that the slightest typo in trying to access the wiki tends to land me on the getfedora.org site. I hope we can find a way to clean this up.
These are two different kinds of use cases. Actually we have in place several redirects for the old fedoraproject.org website.
@kevin any other option?
Other issue happening in the wiki (I'm not sure if is a bug or a feature) is that pages get empty if you finish the URL with / e.g.: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Ambassadors/ https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Council/
That's a wiki "feature".
@x3mboy generally you should never use a trailing slash in a website URL, because it indicates a directory, while if you leave it away, it is a file. Normally, if you write the URL without the trailing slash and you mean a directory, the webserver will redirect you to the right page, or better, add the slash for you and go to the index.html of that directory. The other way around, if you add the slash and you mean a file instead, the webserver will not find this directory, but he won't even look out for a corresponding file, which will result in a 404.
Is this still an issue or has it been fixed with the new wiki? https://www.fedoraproject.org/wiki/Council is redirecting me to the Council page now.
