278625 - Mozillazine KB links are 404ed

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(www.mozilla.org :: General, defect)

Description

[Gids Goldberg]

Since the Mozillazine KB got upgraded, the link to it from the Mozilla Support
page is now 404ed. The correct URL to link to is now
http://kb.mozillazine.org/index.php?title=Mozilla_Firefox

Comment 1

Remove the "index.php" completely, please.  The links still work, and it makes
the site less dependent on actualy file names.

Comment 2

[alanjstr]

This applies to any mozillazine kb links we have, not just that one.

Comment 3

[Gids Goldberg]

Changed summary to reflect Comment 2.

Comment 4

[Anne (:annevk)]

Ok so why,
 1. Did MozillaZine not open a bug here to report they were going to make
    changes?
 2. Did MozillaZine not redirect their old links?
    (<http://www.w3.org/Provider/Style/URI>)

Can someone cc MozillaZine people? This would be trivial to fix for them.

We had to upgrade because of a security hole in the version we were using.  I'm
working on getting rid of the index.php?=title soon.

All better.
