Link that intends to link to the article for designing effective User Ads broken, on the User Ad Page

Description of Bug


Pretty miscellaneous, but this bug has something to do with the article link in the User Ad page:

https://www.roblox.com/user-ads/create?targetId=PLACEIDHERE&targetType=Asset
(Replace PLACEIDHERE with your place’s ID).

You’ll see that there’s a small text below the buttons for downloading the Ad templates, linking to an article. However, when clicked, it attempts to redirect you to:
https://developer.roblox.com/articles/Advertising

Which is not valid, and just directs you to the Roblox Doc homepage. Instead, the redirect should be updated to something like User Advertisements | Documentation - Roblox Creator Hub

When it happens


This might have been happening for possibly much longer, earliest I can trace is 1st August 2023.

  2. Scroll down on the menu sidebar and click on Advertise.

This has likely occurred since the documentation overhaul.

They may have renamed the article.
