I've been alerted to broken links in an article. But, when I click on them they work fine.

Anyone got ideas?

It's a known bug that Simon's been working on for a while. I tend to just double-check the link, if it's valid, I mark the link as corrected and it returns to the page list.

Hi Rupert,

simply click "Corrected" in your notification, and you'll be done in time for the second game of the semi-finals. Smile

Our broken links detection software is somewhat broken itself. Simon hasn't found a cure, yet.

Now, what about them Krauts?

My niece's husband has a restaurant and he was offering a $25 gift certificate to anyone who guessed the score correctly. I thought my guess of 3:0 Germany was a bit too lopsided to have a chance. Humbling that.

Great guess, tho, Rupert. You came in first compared to the predictions of 200 million locals. Nobody could have foreseen such a disaster. I feel so sorry for the home team, and I wished it wouldn't have been so painful. 2:1, 3:2, maybe - or a penalty shoot-out, the loss of which you can blame on bad luck. Like you, I have a soft spot for the Brazilians. (As long as we win, of course.)

I'd say, the other way around. Smile

An all-European final? We shall see in a bout eight hours' time.

I'm going for Oranje 3, Argentina 1.

That'll set up a floozydoozy of a final.

I got the winner and goal differential right. Any prizes, he asks, expecting an abusive reply?

One of my pages is showing invalid links but when I go into edit mode it does not specify which link (s) is broken.  Therefore, I can't click corrected.  How can I fix this?

Janet - can you check out all links on that page, and then remove any broken ones?

Rupert - congratulations, you are now our official Wizzley World Cup oracle (WWCO)! What more could you possibly ask for?

I shall wear my WWCO with honour. And, in order not to sully the award, I will refrain from an official WWCO prediction on Sunday's outcome. (Germany 3 Argentina 1 is my completely unofficial guess unless it turns out to be accurate in which case I will claim full WWCO authorship.) Do you think I might have a future in politics?

Maybe not in politics, Rupert. Your impeccable integrity would prevent any success.

However, you should contact FIFA and apply for the 2018 oracle position. Put an end to those silly exotic fish, gophers, alligators, or other vermin they've been using so far.

I am also getting the invalid links (when trying to write an article for new) and I can't see an option to mark as 'Corrected' anywhere.

My error message.

Update: Managed to get the Rotten Tomatoes one to work by redirecting to the mobile interface version.
