[Cc-webedit] RBS camp URL structure

[JimDog]

Hey.

Personally i'd just go for something punchy for the current action that is easy to get into peoples heads, and that can be spouted out easily in radio/tv interviews. Something like climatecamp.org.uk/rbs or /next?
Am i right in thinking the site is rails? Could be set in config/routes.rb, either that or i could help you configure an apache redirect to whatever you like using mod_rewrite if you need, though i imagine you're cool to do that anyhow?

Hi,

We seem to have quite a mess with the URLs for the RBS camp. The main
content is at:

http://www.climatecamp.org.uk/actions/camp-for-climate-action-2010

The "Why RBS?" page is at:

http://www.climatecamp.org.uk/actions/royal-bank-of-scotland/why-rbs

(Notice "royal-bank-of-scotland", instead of
"camp-for-climate-action-2010".)

The main home page image links to:

http://www.climatecamp.org.uk/actions/royal-bank-of-scotland

Which returns a 404.

I suggest that:

* We don't need to have both "climatecamp" and "camp-for-climate-action"
in any URL
* We should go for "/actions/edinburgh-2010" as it is short, and we have
historically put the *place* we are going and the year in the URL.
* I can set up redirects for the current URLs to go to this new scheme

Jon
