Remove an old short name
delete_renamed_shortRemove an entry’s old short name (list_path_redirects’ renamed), as Remove on Console → Redirects and on the entry’s console card does: / stops leading to the entry and is a 404 at once (it is taken off the site’s cache), or an entry’s once one takes it as its short name. Only an old short name a rename left; never an entry’s current short or the old wiki’s aliases. Audited against the entry with the key and the tool. Dry run by default; the real run needs confirm set to the old short name’s exact key, as the dry run gives it.

| Name | Required | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|---|
| key | Yes | The old short name, without its leading “/”, e.g. "old-name" for /old-name. | |
