Dead/Spammy Links
dingwilson opened this issue · comments
Are there any plans to remove dead or spammy links? For example, Frank Cash's website does not work, and Emily Tran's website leads to a spam site for me.
If you see any (more) spammy links, just file an issue; I removed Emily Tran's website from the list and messaged her.
I'll ask Frank Cash about his site. I believe we used a tool in the past to purge dead domains, and we might want to use that again.
Achal Varma's website doesn't actually show anything aside from a generic "parked website" page.
Matthew Bucci's website is down
Su Min Kim's website is down
Checked all the personal websites and just made a pull request #633 to address this issue.
More websites that are down for me:
I'll just add more as I find them.
Surprised no one has created a CI hook/script to probe non-200 response codes for the URLs.
@joshuarli My pull request took them 1 year to respond to. I don't think they are even trying anymore.
Something like this might be cool: https://github.com/dkhamsing/awesome_bot
I know this is currently being used to check for dead links/redirections in several website list repos. It can be integrated with TravisCI, CircleCI, Danger, etc.
@binhonglee You're right, they ignored one of my PRs a month old and when I tried to email all the organization members asking if I could help maintain, I got no response.
Seems this org doesn't really care about this. Closing...
