“If this will be handed off to someone else to harvest, pass on any useful info here.” → add “, including any alternate URLs people should use as entry points.” Or alternately have a separate field for people to enter harvestable URLs (like we had in the spreadsheet)

Is this the same as the "Link URL" feature? If so maybe we just need to do a better job of labelling it as such.

No, my understanding is that those are two different things. (I think.)

The "link url" is a way to say "URL x, y, z should be handled at the same time as this URL"
The "harvestable url" says "the original URL is the the right one to harvest. Instead go to URL x".

Does that make sense?
