 * I have a very popular page on my review site. It’s basically the best item of
   2013. Well now it’s 2014 so instead of writing a whole new post i edited the 
   permalink on the edit page link and now traffic has crashed as well as I see 
   both pages in google webmaster tools. I am wondering if this is the cause of 
   the traffic crash due to Google possibly believing that this is two posts thus
   duplicate content. So I am wondering if I should leave things the way they are
   for awhile and see what happens or delete the post entirley. Then how do I totally
   get if out of the serps because I would eventually like to repost it at some 
   point in time.
