To be fair, the link is broken *now*. Previously, as the Internet Archive Wayback Machine¹ tells me, Juriy ‘kangax’ Zaytsev was so clever as to set up a 302 redirect to , which in turn redirects to where the content is currently available (not on perfectionkills.com). (See also and various other tutorials.) However, the standing recommendation is to update URIs if possible as redirects are encountered, in order to improve user experience, to reduce problems for the site owner, and to ensure future access of information.) Thanks. Fixed. > And http://jibbering.com/faq/notes/square-brackets/ is not linked from the > notes page: http://pointedears.de/scripts/faq/cljs/notes/ Neither has it been referred from as of 2010-10-08 CE. It does not make sense to refer to the old FAQ which is often inaccessible from a/the new FAQ, whose goal is to replace the old FAQ in order to fix that problem and other problems. Therefore, the new reference will be to (I am working on an additional, shorter URI for Notes references). Please make a suggestion how (aside from the URI) you wish this section of the FAQ Notes to be referred (see below). > And the notes page link has been removed from the top of the FAQ itself. No, it is now right below the heading “Table of contents”, where it belongs. In general, and to all: If you have any suggestions to improve the FAQ for comp.lang.javascript, please - say *exactly* + *what* is wrong; + *where* it is wrong, and + *how* you would like it to be changed. Although I do revisions of the FAQ on my own, I do not consider it my job as FAQ maintainer/editor to find the borken/missing link, or to anticipate your wishes. - do all of the above *via e-mail to *, as laid out in (this was also referred from and following our agreement; you are among my Twitter followers and could have seen it) and in the FAQ itself: I cannot read all postings in the newsgroup that may or may not pertain to the FAQ, and discussions on the FAQ in the newsgroup should be kept to a minimum in the first place. (Granted, the FAQENTRY method should be abolished then, and the corresponding sections and parts of sentences removed from the FAQ. OTOH, even you have not used the FAQENTRY method with your suggestions. This and Stefan Weiss’ comment tells me that it is unsuited anyway.) Thank you very much in advance.
