"reputable news" link 404s #112

Closed stephenmathieson closed 2 years ago

The link underlined by this image:

screenshot of standwithukraine website

Leads to https://standwithukraine.pp.ua/WarNews.html, which 404s.

stephenmathieson commented 2 years ago

The link works when there are hyphens in the URL ("stand-with-ukraine").

I don't see this bug when i navigate to https://stand-with-ukraine.pp.ua/ and click this link. It also works from https://github.com/vshymanskyy/StandWithUkraine/tree/main/docs#readme

I don't think there's any real issue here

Yes, but when you visit https://standwithukraine.pp.ua, you'll get a 404. The hyphen-less domain is linked to by various badges. For example, here.

I don't get a 404, I just get a different website.

/edit:

Oh, right, when I call https://standwithukraine.pp.ua/WarNews.html I get a 404, too.

I don't know either, but they did. I assume others have too.

IMO redirecting standwithukraine.pp.ua to stand-with-ukraine.pp.ua is probably the best/simplest solution.

vshymanskyy commented 2 years ago

i'm not afilliated with http://standwithukraine.pp.ua/

Oh weird. Looks like some sort of phishing scam. Yesterday, it was a copy of https://stand-with-ukraine.pp.ua.

webknjaz commented 2 years ago

Interesting... When I was registering https://stand-with-ukraine.pp.ua, https://standwithukraine.pp.ua was not a thing and I was considering to register it myself as an alias. But decided that I probably don't need it. Maybe somebody from the charity decided to get it, after all.

vshymanskyy commented 2 years ago

After some verification, we consider standwithukraine.pp.ua as possible a phishing attempt. ComeBackAlive org refused any relation to this website. However, it looks like it was just used once in the VIM wiki. Currently, it's not mentioned anywhere else: search results

The correct link to use is https://stand-with-ukraine.pp.ua
