The internet is a dynamic place, so links come and go. If new locations cannot be found, maybe we can replace those links with ones to the Internet Archive site. The are trying to combat this exact issue.

http://www.archive.org

For example

The broken link
http://www.undu.com/
becomes
http://web.archive.org/web/*/http://www.undu.com/

Do you know that it is a wiki, so you can create an account and edit it?

That's true, but not always possible. We sometimes forget that not everybody has the luxury of fast or always-on internet. Dial-up is still a reality in many places, so editing wiki's online is not always an option.

He tested all links, so I assumed his internet connection is not the problem.

If you can read it, you can edit it, as far as I can see. We don't make the wiki available for off line reading (yet).

ok, ok.... my point was simply that it's faster to read something that it is to read and edit something. I don't have an issue with editing wikis, but some people do.

I don't even know the original author, so I really don't know what internet connection he has etc....

My point is simply it is faster to read something and edit it, than to read something, make report of it, write an email about it and wait for somebody else to read that mail and edit the wiki.
