Jan Høydahl commented on SOLR-13548:
------------------------------------

Yea, I thought the same, that .htaccess is not part of Confluence so just 
nuking the space would be easiest, and use self-service to re-create with same 
name. I can check that with Infra. 

Another issue with the redirects is of course that if someone creates a Cwiki 
page in the future with same name as a page in the 6_6 ref guide, that will 
never display but redirect. The "reserved" names are: [^SolrCwikiPages.txt], 
228 pages in total. One way to deal with that could be to create an empty 
placeholder page for each (using a script) so users cannot create them.

The page titles in Moin wiki are [^SolrMoinTitles.txt], 776 pages in all, but 
with A LOT of non-solr content like Moin help pages etc. Only two page names 
clash with Cwiki: "DocValues" and "MoreLikeThis". I can rename those before 
running the migration tool.

A different approach is of course to let the "SOLR" space remain as is, locked 
down, and create a new "SOLR2" space for the new Wiki, with a big link on top 
of SOLR space. I'm not very keen on that idea.

Yet another more controversial idea is to also nuke the .htaccess rules and say 
"Hey, Solr 6.6 is 2 years old and EOL. Any old blog, tutorial is likely 
outdated anyway - let those liks rot, we're preparing for v9.0 here" :)

Unless the "SOLR2" or "let links rot" alternatives gain immediate popularity, 
I'll proceed with
 # Confirm that space can be nuked without affecting redirects
 # Do the migration
 # Run a script to create empty placeholder pages for the 228 refguide titles

> We have a deadline end of June to migrate Moin wiki to Confluence.
> This Jira will track migration of Solr's [https://wiki.apache.org/solr/] over 
> to [https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/SOLR]
> The old Confluence space currently hosts the old Reference Guide for version 
> 6.5 before we moved to asciidoc. This will be overwritten.
> Steps:
>  # Delete all pages in current SOLR space
>  ## Q: Can we do a bulk delete ourselves or do we need to ask INFRA?
>  # The rules in {{.htaccess}} which redirects to the 6.6 guide will remain as 
> is
>  # Run the migration tool at 
> [https://selfserve.apache.org|https://selfserve.apache.org/]
>  # Add a clearly visible link from front page to the ref guide for people 
> landing there for docs
> After migration we'll clean up and weed out what is not needed, and then 
> start moving developer-centric content into the main git repo (which will be 
> covered in other JIRAs)
