check all links regularly #378

Some links will inevitably change/break over time. Ideally we should implement some automatic check that looks at all of them periodically and reports issues so they can be fixed.

Maybe we can use the VLO linkchecker for this.

Haven't used the VLO linkchecker, but I noticed that there were quite a few in-text links broken, all of which were due to the fact that the HTML contained opening/closing quotes rather than straight quotes, which broke the link.

So, links should always be written like this:

<a href="https://www.clarin.eu">CLARN ERIC</a>

and not like this:

<a href=“https://www.clarin.eu”>CLARN ERIC</a>

I fixed quite a lot of these, hopefully most of them!

The issue is that, at least for me, LibreOffice automatically transforms the default straight quotation marks sometimes into the curved ones.
