[Pete Thomas]

@Pete Thomas, I tried to tag a thread 'check' but I can't create new tags -- could you create that tag?

No sooner done than said sir!

Thanks, page 102 is done.

There were several links to files on Box.com where the preview didn't load, and downloading the file seemed to have no effect, but that might be because I don't have a Box.com account. I tagged these 'check' but probably they're dead links if you can't be bothered to jump through the hoops.

I’ll do page 101.

It’s going to be a pain getting to the pages in the middle.

Page 101 done

 

[nigeld]

I’ll do page 100

Page 100 done.

If you click on the ellipsis there's a popup to enter the page number, not sure if that's what you mean though.

Why?

Thanks. I didn’t know that.

99 is done.

I don't think this will work like this, as someone adds a new thread, the threads on each page change by one.

Plus I very much checked a few and a lot of deadlinks are not marked as such. hmmm maybe my instructions are wrong

 

[wakyct]

Maybe a bit fiddly but you could create a new tag ('started_checking') which you tag the first thread with on the page that you open. Then someone in this thread can open both the previous 'done' page, and can post "I have 98" and just work up to the post that has the 'started_checking' tag.

I think the easiest we stick to he plan, but it may be best if say we could each commit to 5 - 10 pages at a time and make a note of the thread OP date of first and last threads - that way it won't take me long to check if any gaps.

I'll do 90 - 98 (inclusive)

 

[Pete Thomas]

NB: made the tag just the word: dead now, its a bit quicker

 

[Pete Thomas]

I've done 80 - 98 and moved deadlines out so we are now just down to 80 pages. from here it gets easier because I think there are more properly embedded Youtube and Soundcloud so quicker to spot without having to test the links.

 

[nigeld]

I’ll do 70-79
