#7776 closed defect (bug) (fixed)

Possible redirect for Core Handbook "Philosophy"

Description

The immediately impacted page is here: https://make.wordpress.org/core/handbook/about/

The "philosophies" link on this page currently points to this resource: https://make.wordpress.org/core/handbook/about/philosophies/

However, it seems it would be ideal for it to point to this canonical resource: https://wordpress.org/about/philosophy/

Also, it is likely that other resources might be pointing to: https://make.wordpress.org/core/handbook/about/philosophies/

Is it possible to have a redirect for: https://make.wordpress.org/core/handbook/about/philosophies/ to point to this please: https://wordpress.org/about/philosophy/

Fixed in [dotorg-22679]:

Make/Core: Redirect 'philosophies' handbook page to the project's 'Philosophy' page.

Props colorful-tones, jeffpaul.
Fixes #7776.

Now that the redirect is in place, the page should probably be unpublished (so it gets removed from the sidebar menu and so there's no confusion by future editors).

Also, a link to the Philosophy page probably needs to be added to the handbook's "About" page? There is one such link there already (which I haven't updated). However, it is included in a section prefaced by "In this section, you will learn more about...", but with the philosophies now being listed outside the handbook, that doesn't quite make sense any longer.

I've removed the core handbook philosophy page and updated the link in the handbook about page to the proper canonical reference of https://wordpress.org/about/philosophy/.
