Research direction

Start by locating how this documentation repository defines redirects, then compare the old URL http://docs.bitshares.org/tutorials/uia-create-manual.html with its proposed new destination. Check the other URLs listed in the issue and verify that each applicable old link redirects to the corresponding current page without losing traffic.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

I think it will be good to redirect some links that were available in the old doc site into the new versions here.

For example:

http://docs.bitshares.org/tutorials/uia-create-manual.html

Is broken, it should redirect to: https://dev.bitshares.works/en/master/bts_guide/tutorials/mpa-create-manual.html

Others are: https://dev.bitshares.works/en/master/bts_guide/tutorials/mpa-create-manual.html
and https://dev.bitshares.works/en/master/api/blockchain-objects-ids.html

Please note old links are posted in issues, forum posts, etc just as: https://github.com/bitshares/bitshares-core/issues/1111#issuecomment-402136106

It is important to dont lose that traffic where possible.

Thanks.
