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.
Guys, get real. We wont patch around in mediawiki just so the few very low traffic links to your wiki pages still work. Fix links where ever you find them wrong. This is a NEW web-page. The first YaST page is not even on the top 100 of the popular pages of the old wiki... Henne -- Henne Vogelsang, openSUSE.
