</span>Yes, that link is rather useless...<br>
The Mediawiki maintainer may remove the link:<br>

</span>... this one is about do-ocracy, i.e. the event owners should take<br>
care of maintaining their pages. Unfortunately it rarely happens. So<br>
that is a nice task for a volunteer to go through and update the pages<br>
(very easy to do, and a welcome contribution!).<br>

<br>
</span>No idea here... in Chromium it also happens.<br>
Likely an update of the Mediawiki version would help here. The GRASS<br>
GIS project uses a more recent version, no such issue there:<br>
