Revision as of 04:04, September 11, 2018
, 04:04, September 11, 2018→URL protocol updates: typo
== URL protocol updates ==
== URL protocol updates ==
The Web is changing a great deal. One of these changes is the shift from the [[HyperText Transfer Protocol]] to [[HyperText Transfer Protocol Secure]]. While HTTPS is not perfect (and it will continue to be less that ideal at least until/unless we get DNSSEC) this is a good move. The problem for us is that we now have a great deal of links which are out of date. 1990'sguy pointed out this issue and suggested that I use my bot to update our links. I don't have the ability to automatically test URLs for TLS support, so I'm making a list of URLs to be updated. Please add any links you want updated to the table below, but do not edit the "verified" column. Thank you!

Update: This list has been moved to a designated page: [[User:DavidB4-bot/HTTPS URL update project]]. It was getting too long for a user talk page. --[[User:DavidB4|<font color="ForestGreen">David B</font>]] <sup>([[User talk:DavidB4|TALK]])</sup> 23:34, 10 September 2018 (EDT)
