Copy link

Copilot AI commented Nov 28, 2025

Monthly link audit identified 50+ broken links including Wikipedia URLs with parentheses, stale external links, and incorrect relative paths.

Wikipedia links with parentheses

Fixed markdown parsing for URLs containing parentheses by wrapping in angle brackets:

# Before - markdown interprets ) as end of link
[Blake2b](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BLAKE_(hash_function))

# After
[Blake2b](<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BLAKE_(hash_function)>)

Affected: Blake2b, Pipeline, Scheduling, Multithreading, Concurrency

Internal path fixes

  • learn-system-chains.md: /learn/learn-smart-contracts.md./learn-smart-contracts.md
  • contributors.md, how-to-dyor.md, build-open-source.md: Standardized scams.md./scams.md

External link updates

  • Avalanche docs: Migrated to docs.avax.network domain
  • Ledger docs: Updated Zondax/metadata portal references
  • ANSSI: ssi.gouv.frcyber.gouv.fr
  • Signet: talisman.xyz/signetsignet.talisman.xyz
  • Grants: Updated Aleph Zero, OAK; removed deprecated Edgeware

Removed dead links

  • polkadotphilosophy.com article
  • grillapp.net blog posts (JAM link replaced with YouTube video)
  • PolkaVerse reference

Not modified

Medium/Reddit/Dune links return 403 to bots but work in browsers—not actually broken.
