I haven't reviewed this yet, but if we're moving pages we should add in some redirects to avoid breaking incoming links.

How important tis that/easy to fix? I don't think there are many external places we have links stored to atm, so not too fussed by it.

Alternatiely a 404 catch all that redirects to the home page would probs be fine

We don't know which third parties are publically or privately linking to us, and I think it's good practice to avoid breaking links without good reason. There are extensions to help with redirects, e.g.

The only change being the slack I am ready to approve, yet I think we should resolve the links redirect conversation.

Will this be a different set of contact details from the Slack and mailing lists?

Is this description right? "contact.md" just implies getting in touch, whereas it sounds like this is more about getting involved? So maybe "join-us.md"?

Good point! We are suggesting having a more in depth get involved elsewhere - so maybe a wording change above?

@manics are you happy to merge this and add redirects as a separate issue to be addressed, or should we include it within this PR?

(I think I know what the right answer is but I'm asking anyway...)

Can we do it in this PR since it affects the live site? If you don't want to use one of the plugins that creates automatic redirects you could recreate the old pages and include a link to the new pages instead, or if there's no replacement link to the github file pinned by commit.

I have converted to draft, most content will be copied over to the final website structure and this specific PR probably closed
