[xwiki-devs] [VOTE] XWiki.org: Don't delete important pages
Hi, Another proposal: don't remove important pages that are moved. For example imagine that we refactor the RSSFeeds page into a Notifications page. I propose that we don't delete the RSSFeeds page but instead add a redirect to the new page. Example: {{velocity}} $response.sendRedirect($xwiki.getURL("Features.Notifications")) {{/velocity}} I propose we do this till we get this feature automatically in the XWiki core. The rationale is that users will save links and when they navigate to them later on these links will be broken. Here's my +1 Thanks -Vincent

If I understand correctly, we do delete the page but have a dummy page doing the redirect. Hope I'm correct. +1 - Asiri

No, we don't delete the page. We just change its content to have the redirect. -Vincent
