How to make "Everything you ever wanted to know about mod_rewrite" more visible

Ok, everyday we see a load of questions about mod_rewrite. Every once in a while, there is a good tricky scenario, but most are boiler plate "how do I redirect URL xyz to abc?".

I think the users should find an answer on the site easily... so I search myself and I can't even find the classic 2010 question Redirect, Change URLs or Redirect HTTP to HTTPS in Apache - Everything You Ever Wanted to Know About mod_rewrite Rules but Were Afraid to Ask

Somehow, we should be able to make this more visible.

Also, really, is that the best title - maybe we should have a better title or different entry as the new people not too familiar with Apache and mod_rewrite just don't know that mod_rewrite is the answer to their question -- basically, they are having trouble formulating their question.
