slug

The stable part of a record’s URL, derived from its title once and then never regenerated.

slug is the last segment of a record's address — the part after /grants/. It is generated from the title when a record is first created and then left alone.

Left alone deliberately. A slug that regenerated whenever a source retitled a notice would change the record's URL, break every link anyone had saved to it, and give a search engine two addresses for one page. A retitled notice keeps its slug and shows its new title.

Two records never share a slug. Where a title collides with one already in use, a suffix is added at creation rather than the earlier record being moved.

Shown as: the URL of the record page. When absent: never. A record without a slug has no address and is not published.
