Www.julialang.org: Dead links

[tlienart]

In the process of #655 I was checking links with blc

It's a bit finicky and sometimes just crashes so one may have to restart it with exclusion rules via --exclude URL1 --exclude URL2 etc.

A partial dump of what I could check below, not sure what to do about it. Some of these have just ceased to exist, and so it's probably fine to leave them dead... but some I feel could be fixed eventually.

Linkedin is just weird. I bet you those links are fine.

@ChrisRackauckas Did you change those URLs?

[abhishalya]

LinkedIn requires the user to log in. So the link is fine but the response is different.

[abhishalya]

I think we can keep a separate job in CI to check for dead links. I was using htmltest where we could simply pass the bad external links while they're still being tested. Every failing internal link will fail the job. So it will be a good check imo.

[ChrisRackauckas]

Documenter had an update that broke almost all links.

https://docs.juliadiffeq.org/latest/analysis/sensitivity.html should become https://docs.juliadiffeq.org/dev/analysis/sensitivity . The only one that needs more of a change is https://docs.juliadiffeq.org/latest/features/monte_carlo.html needs to become https://docs.juliadiffeq.org/latest/features/ensemble .

[giordano]

Maybe point to stable version if possible?

[tlienart]

I believe I fixed all the wrong links pointing to docs.juliadiffeq.org (probably a good idea to double check) #664

I'll fix that asap; edit: fixed

[tlienart]

I'll close this, I think the most reasonable way about it is to go page by page and fix everything. The hardest will be /blog/ as there are so many pages but I guess we could split the work by looking by year. I'll open an issue to try to organise the work.
