  • Redirect all these subject urls to new topic page at  http://www.victoria.ac.nz/explore/study-areas/physics/about  
  • On the school sites: Add a redirect link so that the new subject page appears in left-hand sidebar.

Actions in the previous lines in this row of this table will leave home site page as the sole copy of this content. It is required to feed International.

School name (and other majors they offer): Not a pattern we follow, as users were not interested.

First year courses: Not covered anywhere, although I think we should. Maybe in major requirements, important information. Jane Young (Unlicensed), what do you think?

Related subjects: Replaced by related topics (being the topics that contain the related subject). Will need to limit this to 6.

List of careers: Sometimes handled at topic level, sometimes at subject, with link to CareersNZ for further information.

List of courses: Not covered unless specific courses are mentioned in the requirements on the degree page.

AoS navigationhttp://www.victoria.ac.nz/study/programmes-courses/subjects (205925)

If we have a new state for the AoS navigation,

  • Implement 'Explore Physics' button, pointing to the new topic page. 

If not,

    • Redirect all subject links to the new topic page 

This is a temporary measure and would need fixing once the first option is developed.

Related AoShttp://www.victoria.ac.nz/explore/study-areas/physics/about (309756)
  • Check all six related AoS have the right state: Either subject level links (where the topic is not yet live) or 'Explore topic name' where the topic is already live.
  • Pay special attention to any that might already be live.
