Redirect Bugzilla enter_bug.cgi to https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/home/create/
Closed, DeclinedPublic

Description

It probably isn't feasible to map all of the custom URLs (e.g. T75732: Updating broken 'request' link at GWToolset), but it would be useful to map anything starting with https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/enter_bug.cgi to https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/maniphest/task/create/ . Currently, it goes to the homepage.

When we discussed use cases to land at https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/maniphest/task/create/ , we decided that they were not worth pursuing. Users going that path most likely are not logged in to Phabricator, and therefore they will see a log in dialog first. They probably have no Phabricator account either. They might not even have a clue of what is going, having to go anyway to the homepage and learn about the news.

If there are links of the family bugzilla.wikimedia.org/enter_bug.cgi/etc, the solution is to fix those links. In the meantime, sending users to the homepage is a safer bet.

Declining this request.
