Fixed bug in Val that was causing dozens of 403 errors to be returned unnecessarily. Polished report wording and messages a little.
Val now links to wiki pages using HTTPS instead of HTTP. Fixed code that exempts minor forms of redirects from being listed. New arguments --show-added-slashes and --show-https-upgrade allow one to turn off these exemptions. Reworked summary section extensively to be more readable.
Val's reports now print section headers for the init/config stage and for the link results themselves.
Properly fixed Val's parsing of Archive API responses this time. Added a little space between each link result, making report much easier to read.
Fixed ValExtLinks' reading of Archive API replies. Fix for reading links that happen to have a shebang in them. Now knows how to handle NULL namespace links. Now prints elapsed time.
ValExtLinks: Fixed bug in interwiki link suggestions. Corrected documentation error.
ValExtLinks improvements: - Now advises reader of external internal links. - The exceptions file now allows finer-grained exemption of a URL by matching to the specific page that contains it instead of exempting all occurrences of that URL (but the '*' wildcard will match all containing pages). Currently you can only list a URL once, however. - The exceptions file now allows external internal and potential intrawiki links to be exempted from the report. - The path to Google Chrome (for taking screenshots) is now external to the script, supplied as an argument after "--take-screenshots". - All of OniGalore's interwiki shortcuts are now recognized. - Protection against failed retrieval of redirect URL. - Better recognition of unimportant redirects (http->https, added ending slash).
ValExtLinks: IW links now reported as separate category from OK links. RD links that are just redirecting from http:// to https:// are now regarded as OK.
Val now understands HTTP redirect responses and will report the URL we're redirected to. Also now tallies IW links.
Updating Val to new location of files on oni2.net and slight changes to Archive API.
Committing my wiki link validation script, as it is reasonably mature now.
