I just thought of something that is probably the problem (smacking myself in the forehead here).
I originally set up the wiki infrastructure at knitting-and.com/wiki People linked to the long form of URLs there I set up short urls - the incoming long urls were working & redirecting to the short versions I moved the wiki infrastructure to knitting-and.com/w with articles at knitting-and.com/wiki Long urls are coming into the OLD wiki long URLs at knitting-and.com/wiki/ So I need to set up the old version of the long urls from knitting-and.com/wiki/ to redirect as well as the current version. Does that sound right or completely insane?
