I disagree. URLs should be stable, especially when the cost is low. I'll start moving the pages to the new locations and I'll put in redirects whenever I find a broken link.
Don't please. We have put a lot of work into this new structure and we don't need to destroy it again with tons of redirects. Please follow the new guidelines.

Therefore redirects are needed - not for each old article - but for each old article for which we provide a link to our users.
Exactly. If the redirects indeed destroy the new structure, which is valuable and I do appreciate the work people put in it, then it is a bug in the wiki engine that we should fix. The redirects should invisibly sit there and only help when someone uses an old link. -- Martin Vidner, YaST developer http://en.opensuse.org/User:Mvidner Kuracke oddeleni v restauraci je jako fekalni oddeleni v bazenu
