Erik has rightly pointed out to me that as I moved some things in the wiki, old links broke. However, I don't remember this always being the case. I remember at some point if I moved a page, a redirect happened automatically. Can this have been the case or was I dreaming? :-)
It might have been coincidence, because we installed some wildcard redirects during the wiki migration. I believe the current behaviour of moin Wiki is to not set up redirects automatically.
You can set up pages with a redirect clause manually, _but_ those pages will potentially clutter the search and page listings, so this makes sense mostly when you want a page to appear in two locations explicitly, i.e. for better click-through navigation.
When you want to move a page, because it was at the wrong place, better have a look at http://wiki.fsfe.org/WikiAdmin/Redirections
