Add CW#556: external link in the text
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

Add a detection for external link inside the text.

External links should be reported unless :

  • They are in a reference, either in a <ref> tag or a template defining a reference (needs configuration)
  • They are in some specific chapters, like External links (needs configuration)

This is a test to see if it's interesting to report external links in the text

Event Timeline

NicoV renamed this task from Add CW#5xx: external link in the text to Add CW#556: external link in the text.Jul 24 2020, 7:28 AM

A first version is available, it needs a lot of configuration, and some more testing.

NicoV moved this task from CheckWiki to Done on the WPCleaner board.

Putting this task aside, as the amount of configuration to do to ignore places where external links are ok is huge.
If someone is interested in this detection, please reopen the task explaining how you would use it.
