Our current URL structure is extremely obtuse for non-technical users, and generally defies their expectations. To most people, en.wikipedia.org/Dogor even wikipedia.org/Dog should work just fine, not produce a 404.
To be fair, both of those links redirect to the proper URL anyway. It wouldn't be hard to just change that from 404 to a redirect. Nonetheless the canonical URI should still be /wiki/Article_title.
