I was trying to support old links such as this:

...which I encountered here:

Sadly it does not work. To support old links like this would require a web-server level redirect in your web root .htaccess
file - something like:
RedirectMatch permanent '/mediawiki/' http://avisynth.nl/index.php/
I believe this would fix all old links like the one above - or at least do no harm. I have done similar redirects for another site, required by a complete site reorganization while not breaking old URLs, and it worked very well.
Your web host may prefer you add redirects through the admin control panel, rather than edit .htaccess
directly. Either way is good.
