@encukou, are these IDs case-sensitive?

[encukou]

are these IDs case-sensitive?

Yes. (see: nOTES vs Notes)

I think it would be better to preserve them

That can be a separate (docs-wide) decision; this PR can just add these to removed-ids.txt.

[serhiy-storchaka]

Alternative solution -- rename curses.panel.panel to curses.panel.Panel. But then we would perhaps need to also rename curses.window to curses.Window, and this will create much more IDs issues.

I think it is better to resolve such issues on the HTML server side, if possible. Or add a special Sphynx extension.

This PR is needed for #151748.

Server redirects can be added to https://github.com/python/psf-salt/blob/main/salt/docs/config/nginx.docs-redirects.conf. Hugo proposed a Sphinx extension above, it "redirects" by creating files at the locations pointing to the new location.

Here: #151656 (comment)

A benefit of using the Sphinx extension is that each branch is self-contained, so also works locally and for third parties (who of course aren't hosting on PSF infra).

[serhiy-storchaka]

In this case, redirection cannot help, we need to add anchors. The question is only whether to add a raw html, invisible no-typesetting declarations, or use custom Sphinx directives from extension. For now, I added a raw html.
