Description of problem: The link in the observation grade’s popup (whether it’s Casual, Needs ID or Reserach Grade) links to https://www.inaturalist.org/pages/help#quality - the redirect page pointing to the new help, rather than the new page e.g https://help.inaturalist.org/en/support/solutions/articles/151000169936-what-is-the-data-quality-assessment-and-how-do-observations-qualify-to-become-research-grade-

Thanks for catching that, I’ve made an issue.

This seems to be an issue with a lot of ‘help’ links. I’ve noticed this when viewing a banned user’s ‘profile’ and clicking the link to the guidelines page.

E.g.:

[link removed by moderator] (banned user link)

https://www.inaturalist.org/help#inappropriate (guidelines link)

They should have some chatbot help them with implementing redirections. Because
Cool URIs don’t change.

Hi welcome to the forum and thanks for sharing the outdated link. However, the link to a user’s profile was removed as we do not link to specific users or content perceived or confirmed to be negative or wrong. In the future you can share a screenshot that does not contain identifying information.

Oh alright, thank you for letting me know. I’ll keep that in mind for next time.
