Thanks Tim for running those data. That seems to
suggest the URL
structure works for the most case.
It certainly confirms that search engines link to working links, and
users typing URLs manually are rare and (eventually) learn to prefix
/wiki/. I am not that convinced that the current number of 404s says
that much about the user-friendliness or aesthetics of different URL
schemes, but that is besides the point (and subjective).
I see /w/index.php?title=.. as the more important clean-up, which is why
the RFC is only about that aspect.
