Bare URLS
Hi, I can see you are from Gentoo Linux you are adding a number of references which is good however per WP:BAREURLS they may be susceptable to WP:LINKROT. For best quality it is best to run the refill tool if adding this form or reference, and even better is to ensure the url has been stored on an archive such as the wayback machine. Thankyou.Djm-leighpark (talk) 11:03, 10 August 2018 (UTC)
