Hi Confluence,
Can you please consider the possibility to implement an aliasing system (just like Wikipedia's redirect feature).
So I mean, allowing to have one page:
Having this feature would help a lot maintaining large scale Confluence space with the right governance, and a good SEO and user's experience; while making the lives of editors easier.
On Confluence Cloud there is such functionality called "link to this page"
I can see that your needs are a bit more complex.

Thanks Jakub,
I clarified my need in reply to Nic's answer. Unfortunately the "link to this page" feature doesn't answer my needs.

Thanks for your answer,
I am not sure if the excerpt include solves my problem, as:
1. My pages all have multiple columns, and as far as I know, there can only be one excerpt per page, as we can't select which excerpt of the included page to be included in the including page. (I'd basically want to clone the full page)
2. I want the person who clicks on the page "GDPR" to arrive on a page called "General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR)" and not a page called "GDPR" (this makes the content of the page more self explanatory from the title).
3. I want the editor experience to be not too much degraded by my requirement 2. Typing "[General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR)]" or "[General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR)|GDPR]" is lengthy for the editor, and I want them to only have to type "[GDPR]" instead and end up with the same result.

Wikipedia's redirect system is quite weak, compared with Confluence's "include" and "excerpt" functions.
Have a look at the include and include-excerpt macros - they allow "edit once, show *everywhere*" functions that most wikis do not.
