Replying to audrasjb:

True, though I would say a broken link is a worse experience than just an extra redirect, so this should probably be brought to the attention of the Documentation team to make sure all the redirects are properly created.

Alternatively, these link updates could probably be merged to the 6.5 branch to avoid further reports.
