The short answer

Give each distinct decision a clear primary page and combine questions that depend on the same answer. Use summaries to help navigation, with links to the complete source. Review existing URLs before generating new ones, and distinguish an editorial consolidation from the technical signals used to identify a preferred URL.

Detect overlap before publication

Put the proposed question beside the answer it requires. If two drafts reach the same conclusion using the same evidence, start by combining them. A different assistant name, year or location is not by itself a distinct reader need.

Retain a small supporting FAQ on the main page when it resolves a qualification. Promote a question to its own page when the explanation grows into a separate decision with its own evidence and related reading.

Handle a catalog differently from a source article

A directory can be useful for finding answers while adding little new explanation. Decide whether it deserves an independent search landing page or should serve navigation only. Avoid presenting every copied excerpt as an original article.

For Arrow, the earlier 2,000-entry directory remains available as a reading archive. The main hub now prioritizes reviewed answer pages and topic collections. Historical links continue to resolve, while the sitemap points to the current editorial destinations.

What to check

  1. Compare the audience, decision and evidence of proposed pages, not just their titles.
  2. Keep useful historical URLs working when restructuring the library.
  3. Use redirects or canonical signals appropriately for duplicate versions, and keep the sitemap aligned with the preferred pages.

A practical example

“What is GEO?” and “What does generative engine optimization mean?” can share one complete answer. A separate page about how to evaluate a GEO pilot may be justified because it covers deliverables, acceptance checks and reporting rather than the definition.
