:Great to hear from you, Chris! Thanks for checking in... Yes, the idea of diving into to the PSE project is daunting!! No pressure on that or other work here! It's great to have your help, and I totally understand that other things must take priority. Speaking of that, I've been back to work at the university for 2 weeks. The semester starts Tuesday.. And I have also been trying to get some pipes made for an upcoming show in Columbus. I miss the more focused time with things here I had for a while, but still dip an oar in now and then, and generally keep an eye on things... It's great to know it's here waiting for us when we have time to do it! --[[User:Sethile|sethile]] ([[User talk:Sethile|talk]]) 18:19, 16 August 2015 (CDT) | |||
== Weird dead link. == | |||
This page is impossible to link properly for some highly technical reason that's beyond me. Shows up blank when you link it anywhere. Shame, it's a good article. This link is dead, too, but if you search for "Fallon" it comes up and you can click it and see the text. No idea how that's possible. | |||
http://pipedia.org/wiki/Good-Bye_Cigarettes,_Hello_Pipe! | |||
:Hmm... That is strange. This should be the direct internal link: [[Good-Bye Cigarettes, Hello Pipe!]], and this should be the direct external one <br> | |||
: http://pipedia.org/wiki/Good-Bye_Cigarettes,_Hello_Pipe! | |||
: Well that's odd. The internal link works fine. That is likely not a kosher URL, and I'll bet it has something to do with that exclamation point. It's odd how it displays in the link compared to when viewing it in the editor. I'll try renaming it, and also setting up a rederict. | |||
:OK, that seems to be working. You can get to it either way. For the record, this is now the article location for an internal link: [[Good-Bye Cigarettes, Hello Pipe]] , and this is for an external link: http://pipedia.org/wiki/Good-Bye_Cigarettes,_Hello_Pipe , but even the old way should work now because of the redirect. Is that as clear as mud?? Thanks for pointing this out, Chris. It is a great article! | |||
== Another weird dead link. == | |||
Found this one by accident. Another one showing up dead if linked. I'm still coming back to get about a billion pages cleaned up any time, by the way. Not sure what the heck happened to the last half a year. | |||
http://pipedia.org/wiki/Laxey_Pipes_Ltd | |||
:Sure enough... It's the period at the end, and it depends on platform specific formatting. For instance, Mediawiki here interprets that as a link followed by a period, when the link should actually include the period. Anyway, I fixed it by dropping the period from the name and setting up a redirect from the old one, so we can have our period, and eat it too ;) | |||
:Great to hear you're still into to doing some stuff! I totally understand about the time... I have about a million irons in the fire right now... The cool thing about this project is it sits here waiting for us anytime, there is no end of stuff to do, and no one dies if it takes us a while to get around to it!! --[[User:Sethile|sethile]] ([[User talk:Sethile|talk]]) 10:38, 6 January 2016 (CST) | |||
== Revision to add links to DSH Pipes page == | |||
Hey Scott, | |||
I noticed your revisions this morning. I'm not sure what happened, but the formatting, images, and links other than the ones you mentioned in your revision were lost. I'm unsure why you did this revision as links to my mentors' pages were already in place. I undid your revisions to restore the work I did yesterday. Please have a look and let me know if links to my mentors' pages are not working correctly for you. The links work for me. | |||
Thanks for your attentiveness to this Wiki! | |||
Sincerely, | |||
David | |||
::Hello David! Sorry about that... Apparently I was editing the older version instead of the newer one. I've simplified the links. Hopefully all your other changes are still there this time! Let me know if you see anything amiss.... --[[User:Sethile|sethile]] ([[User talk:Sethile|talk]]) 11:30, 31 July 2018 (CDT) | |||
::::Hey Scott, No worries! I really appreciate how attentive you are to the wiki. The new simplified links work great and all of my edits appear to be how I wanted them. Thanks again! -David | |||
