check your correct link first. Then you can use redirect or other guide.
That link can not access.

Move the article to another category or create a menu item to use.

How is the page being created? How do people get there? It is part of a navigation menu for the site, or is it something you are linking to from other articles?

If you are linking to it from another page as an article and not as a menu item:

Set up a new category for individual pages that don't get grouped into other categories.Call it something like "Independent" s you know why it is there. Put this particular article, and any other independent articles, into this new category.

When you create a new Menu Item, Joomla creates a URL for that page. You can create a new menu other than Main Menu, etc. This new menu will not appear on the site unless you create a module for it. It will act to create clean URLs for these independent pages

Set up a Single Article Menu Item in this stand alone menu. This way the category won't show in the URL. If you link to this article from other pages, be sure to link to the Menu Item that you just created.
