Hi,

During sign up for an OSM account, the user is presented with the
Contributor terms [1]. There's an additional checkbox "In addition to
the above agreement, I consider my contributions to be in the Public
Domain (what's this?)". The "what's this?" link points to the
osmfoundation wiki[2]. However the page it points to has been moved
several times, forcing the user to follow the redirect by clicking
the redirection link, three times. I suggest we change that link to
point to the current location[3].

Best,
Sebastian
