It's not as fluent as you might think, since we are only looking up
@archlinux.org UIDs via WKD.

The Arch Linux WKD is (currently) hosted on gitlab pages, which relates
to the host of https://archlinux.page.
Whether there are more redirects on the way, you'd have to check for
yourself. I can also not guarantee that this host won't ever change
(you'd want to ask members of the DevOps team about it).

Best,
David
