I've just been making stubs like
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Council, which isn't ideal.

Mediawiki has some extensions which allow external redirects, but I
don't think we can safely enable anything which allows *arbitrary*
redirects.

We could either look at modifying the ExternalRedirecct
extension to be something like DocsRedirect and hard-code the
https://docs. part, or we could follow this suggestion
https://stackoverflow.com/a/36634532/479426, which is to create a
"MovedToDocs" namespace and allow the extension there, and then give
a restricted set of people permission to move things into that space.
