The easiest way to find these URLs is to go to the Google Search Coverage for 404s and fix those.

I've got a spreadsheet that tracks the URLs I'm aware of, and marks them out as they're fixed.

It's super helpful when getting a usable URL to use the URL Encoder/Decoder.

With VIP Go, the redirects are so bad because of the lack of regex for end characters, so I don't really know yet what to do about those.

I need to do a dry run on it, but I believe this script would both fix the broken urls, and also create redirects that would work even with the messed up characters. https://gist.github.com/jonathanstegall/f86f25f12292618271c4013e6321d764
