Hello wikipedian users!
Today I was browsing the Memento Mori wiki for a debate. And I noticed this URL about a bible passage but it was a dead/rotten URL. Since I do not know much about the bible is there anyone who can find a replacement URL for this?
For anyone helping I want to give a thanks ahead! With a friendly greetings from Dutch Wikipedian user 90.145.57.18 ( talk) 09:49, 11 September 2020 (UTC) ( User: Backupje ( | talk | history | links | watch | logs)
Site was shut down in June 2020, however is still active with a closure notice. The URL, http://www.tssznews.com, should be marked dead and have links to them on Wikipedia (such as Sonic & Sega All-Stars Racing) to be changed to Wayback Machine archives. ❤︎PrincessPandaWiki ( talk | contribs) 01:23, 15 September 2020 (UTC)
There has been an internal reorganisation of the horse profiles database at Racing Post (formerly at bloodstock.racingpost.com
), so a number of citations (around a couple of thousand, almost all using {{
cite web}}) should change to match. Fortunately the mapping from the old to the new URLs is fairly straightforward. Following advice from
Help_talk:Citation_Style_1, the planned approach is to futureproof the citations by using a new specific-source wrapper for {{
cite web}} which I've set up : {{
cite Racing Post horse profile}}. The need is to convert from citations of the form
{{cite web|url=http://bloodstock.racingpost.com/stallionbook/stallion.sd?horse_id=531769|title=Galileo stud record |publisher=Bloodstock.racingpost.com |accessdate=2014-05-26}}
to
{{cite Racing Post horse profile|horse-id=531769|title=Galileo stud record|access-date=2014-05-26}}
These three parameters are the only ones needed (|access-date=
is optional), and are derived from the original citation; any other parameters in the original citation - |publisher=
and |date=
and of course |url=
- can be discarded.
Matching URLs may also include one or both of suffixes popup=1
and tab=stud
, either before or after the horse_id
- these aren't needed for the new-style citation. (e.g. a citation might include a URL such as
http://bloodstock.racingpost.com/stallionbook/stallion.sd?horse_id=589690&popup=1&tab=stud
).
Also, a number of citations have been marked dead, but can be recovered using the new citation format e.g.{{cite web|url=http://bloodstock.racingpost.com/stallionbook/stallion.sd?popup=1&horse_id=303737 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110724030812/http://bloodstock.racingpost.com/stallionbook/stallion.sd?horse_id=303737&popup=1 |url-status=dead |archive-date=2011-07-24 |title=Green Desert Stud Record |publisher=Bloodstock.racingpost.com |accessdate=2011-09-22}}
should convert to
.
{{cite Racing Post horse profile|horse-id=303737|title=Green Desert Stud Record}}

|archive-url=
or {{
webarchive}}
(assuming none exist){{
dead link}}
it will be removed (if new URL working)|publisher=
, |access-date=
, |date=
https://www.racingpost.com/profile/horse/{{{horse-id}}}
(1–6 digits, extracted from the source URL), and the |publisher=
should be set to Racing Post.

|publisher=
and |website=
and replace with |work=
Racing Post
(blue link). The question of publisher vs. work has been religious on Wikipedia but the consensus seems to be to use work (or website which is an alias). Work has the added benefit of italicized since
Racing Post is a publication. It is also checking every link in the subdomain bloodstock.racingpost.com
, including those without a horse_id=
and if they are 404 it adds an archive URL. Some are soft-404 (reporting 200 status but not returning usable content) so it can't do much for those require manual attention, but it can save the 404s at least.

work=Racing Post
, but citations to this database should not not do that - it is not a part of the newspaper, it's another product of the publishing company.

ones. I noticed that in one modified citation in
Erhaab, there is still a publisher=Bloodstock.racingpost.com
unconverted?

|publisher=
and the publisher field already exists it didn't change the value. This is an oversight but not too critical at the moment it could be fixed in a later pass. I think every URL-type in the www.racingpost.com domain (eg. race_id) should be evaluated for solutions, there appears to be a lot of broken links in the site. --

. Can those (I imagine there are more) be fixed too?
