"Starting August 23, 2024, goo.gl links will start displaying an interstitial page for a percentage of existing links notifying your users that the link will no longer be supported after August 25th, 2025 prior to navigating to the original target page." In the next year the goo.gl links may cause problems, while as of August 25th, 2025 they cease working. Do you think this issue needs any central action? Of course, it may be handled locally, but not every wiki has bot owners for that. At least a global warning would be useful for communities.
My idea is to install an abuse filter that warns users to avoid new goo.gl links, and change the existing ones by bot. Bináris
