What functionality is missing? What is unsatisfying with the current situation?

URLs of articles and worlds are extremely volatile, and it's frankly quite annoying if anything needs changing that happens to be a part of the URL. I am aware that there is a "custom URL" feature for Sage, but Sage is a very expensive rank.

How does this feature request address the current situation?

If articles are shared and the article name, world name, or world owner name has been changed, the articles are no longer visible for that third party without being notified. It's annoying for me, as I quite like to share my articles, and it's annoying for those people I like to share my articles with.

PS.: Ngl, I have no idea if the category and type I selected are correct, please do correct me if I made a mistake there, lol

    I agree that WA needs to make money and thus users should have an incentive to subscribe to a higher tier, but this is basically just a quality of life thing... It's an unnecessary annoyance and saying you should pay to get it removed is kinda EA-esque IMO

    WA needs to make money in order to survive and grow. This means providing reasons for users to choose a higher tier.

    As a grandmaster you can set a specific URL for your articles, of course changing the name of your account or your username it is on you.
