Right now, "Manage redirects" works as a simple path-to-article mapping (a manually entered URL is matched to the destination article)
It would be a big quality-of-life improvement if redirects could be anchored to an article ID instead. That way, the redirect would automatically follow the article no matter how many times the title changed previously — reducing manual maintenance and preventing broken links from slipping through.
Here's a real example of why this matters:
Article 1 Title: Example Company 101 (Some customers bookmarked this link)
Article 1 Title updated to: Learn More About Company 101 (Other customers bookmarked this new link)
New article published: Article 2 — Company 101 AI Overview
User needs to create two redirect since it is required to enter the full URL.
Because redirects aren't ID-based, this situation ends up requiring two separate redirect URLs for essentially the same article — just because the title changed. And since title changes aren't always tracked closely, it's easy for old links to break without anyone noticing.
Tying redirects to article IDs would solve this cleanly and make the whole system much more resilient to the natural evolution of article titles over time.
