We needs 'em, for all the old URL patterns. :/

do you mean for the old /en-US/ URLs?

Yep—also I note that we're preserving the /learning/ URL pattern, which is maybe weird?

Cool, support for old links is already taken care of. The /en-US/ bits of a URL get stripped, and people are forwarded to the right article.

Support for /learning/ is still in place, although all articles show up in the articles list, regardless of section. Wasn't sure whether you and @tsl-lindsay wanted to continue using sections in any way, but I can rip that out as well if you like.

We just chatted about this and would like to blow it up and just use /articles/ if that won't be too much of a PITA for you.

no problem, will push to staging a fix that redirects all page requests to an /articles/ version of the URL.

Thank you so much for having all of this thought through and under control. It's very soothing!

Nope, looks perfect to me. Thx!
