Redirect/ Warning on notebook page #112

Open Carreau opened 8 years ago

Carreau commented 8 years ago

Some people link to this http://ipython.org/notebook.html

which, it seem, should mention Jupyter Notebook.

Should it just redirect to https://jupyter-notebook.readthedocs.org/en/latest/notebook.html ?

I'd just redirect to the notebook docs landing page. It has to be a js fake redirect, though - we can't do proper redirects on github pages, unless they've added that recently.

Carreau commented 8 years ago

IFAICT people sharing this link don't try to access docs. They want to point people to a broader overview.

We can use <meta http-equiv="refresh" content="0; url=http://example.com/" /> to redirect without JS. I'm not a huge fan of a blindly redirect as some people might like to actually go to this page.

But anything will be better than not mentioning Jupyter on this page.

This page on IPython.org shouldn't really exist anymore. Either there is an equivalent page to redirect to (an overview of the notebook), or one needs to be added, either on jupyter.org or in the notebook docs.

If there isn't an equivalent, leaving the page as-is with a "Human" redirect (note, link) makes sense, for now.
