Dead Restaurants & Bars LInks
In the past, when a Place record that was a duplicate was combined, clicking on the url for that record would redirect to the remaining record. In the past few days I've worked through several duplicates in the database. And it seems that instead of redirecting, the urls for the records marked as duplicates are just dead. Here's an example for Stroud's in Fairway, KS.

Do you know any of the additional record numbers related to this business?

Thanks, Servorg.
Another biz would be Oklahoma Joe's. Here's the dead url,
http://www.chow.com/restaurants/458319/oklahoma-joes-barbecue
The surviving record is http://www.chow.com/restaurants/5025/... . I merged its duplicate with it in the last couple of days. I knew there was a problem because I had added the duplicate to a list and that url failed to work anymore. Another problem is that I know that the dead OK Joe's record was linked in several threads. Trying to find it now, I checked back on a handful of threads where I'd expect to find it, and it's no longer auto-linked so this could be a bigger problem. My browser had the dead url in history, so I copied it from there.
