[katska]

Checking links at w3c's link checker, some of the links are broken on https://www.righttoknow.org.au/help/requesting Specifically the section Can you tell me more of the nitty gritty about the process of making requests? #

This is usually the sign of a malformed URL that cannot be parsed by the server. Check the syntax of the link.

I checked the twitter account and that one is fine

1) So the first link has been broken for a while - it was overall guidelines with lots of links and sections. https://web.archive.org/web/20140419053017/http://www.oaic.gov.au/freedom-of-information/applying-the-foi-act/foi-guidelines/ I think the equivalent is now https://www.oaic.gov.au/freedom-of-information/foi-guidelines/ There's also an overview for FOI practitioners to supply to Agency staff https://www.oaic.gov.au/freedom-of-information/guidance-and-advice/fact-sheet-for-foi-practitioners-to-provide-to-agency-staff/ (additional good info to include)?

Tasmanian Ombudsman information page (last link) is now at https://www.ombudsman.tas.gov.au/right-to-information

I found the statement of IP principles again: that's dated 2016, I note a change of language from 'manage' in to 'protect' in sample of introductory text. https://www.communications.gov.au/search?search_api_views_fulltext=statement+of+IP+principles - and there's a 2018 update and there is now a manual dated 2019. I don't see any explanatory text about any changes made here. Since we first published it this may have changed.... it has also moved from Attorney General to Communications

Copyright statement is 2016 on both. And indeed, they're essentially the same document, with formatting changes. One small but significant improvement is the link to creative commons licensing is no longer spelled out separately, its now embedded as a link in the text. ip_principles_for_commonwealthentities-_september_2016_0(1).pdf

All links found. Now to update them!

@katska I fixed the IP principles link in https://github.com/openaustralia/righttoknow/commit/d4064088cdf464ec7f6bddfcf459059c42a80e4e

[katska]

Changes all merged. Thanks @mlandauer! I rechecked the links and problems that showed up were all related to being on staging/password needed.
