301 redirect https://archive.wordpress.org/ to https://archive.wordpress.org/interviews/

[jonoaldersonwp]

There's a dead page at the root, and, the only content which exists is in /interviews/.
We should 301 the homepage to /interviews/.

I believe the intention is that it'll have other content in the future, and it's deliberately not linked at present.

IMHO this is a wontfix.

We can remove the 301 if/when is has content.

I agree with Dion that this should be a wontfix.

I'm not sure if reverting a 301 redirect is worth the hassle in the future, especially as ​at least some sources suggest it isn't quick or necessarily easy.

No one is going to the site expecting the interviews section, that just happens to be the only thing on it at present. If anything, I could get behind giving the root page some simple styling and a link to its available resources (i.e. the interviews).

Happy with anything other than the current dead homepage.
If it's realistic that we can replace that with something nicer in the short-term (i.e., several weeks), then that'd be super. If there are vagaries about if/when this might (if ever) happen, we should proceed with the 301 and undo it later.

301 isn't happening.

Lets just add a styled index (I don't have access to).

Styled index suggestions welcome.

[jonoaldersonwp]

What do you mean by "styled index"?
I'd still prefer a 301. What's preventing that?

[coffee2code]

The domain now has a styled index page that links to the archived resources (that currently being the interviews).
