Your links/edit-filter remark edit

Latest comment: 6 years ago1 comment1 person in discussion

Hi, thanks for your edits! I noticed your denied edit and your remarks on a talkpage. It is not 'disruptive editing', but the issue is as described in the remark that was displayed to you on your first attempt to save the link:

Warning: An automated filter has identified that your edit includes a link or reference running through a local proxy – typically, the links include '.proxy.', '.gate.', 'ebsco', 'oclc' or similar in the domain. Such links only work inside the institution that is providing the proxy (sometimes even only in your current login session). The link is (often completely) useless for anyone who does not have access to the proxy of the institution that you are in.

NOTE: you will NOT be able to save this edit if you do not resolve the issue with the proxy link that you added in your edit.

Please replace the proxy links with direct links that do not use a proxy. Thanks!

typical proxy links and how to repair

aa.bb.cc.proxy.xx.yy.zz - a local proxy appended to the domain-name of the original publisher:
- 'https://www.oxfordartonline.com.proxy.lib.duke.edu/<path>' should be replaced by 'http://www.oxfordartonline.com/<path>'
aa-bb-cc-dd.xx.yy.oclc.org - oclc.org proxy, where the dots in the original domainname are replaced with a dash:
- 'https://www-ncbi-nlm-nih-gov.ucsf.idm.oclc.org/<path>' should be replaced by 'www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/<path>'
ebscohost, e.g. https://eds.a.ebscohost.com/ehost/pdfviewer/pdfviewer?...., https://web.a.ebscohost.com/abstract?.....
- You can link to https://search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?AN=<access number> (the ebsco 'permanent link' to the record), the access number is sometimes visible in other ebsco links (the number after 'AN='), or available from the ebsco page that you are visiting.

Report error

It regards the link https://journals-scholarsportal-info.proxy.bib.uottawa.ca/pdf/00372412/v2007i0249/43_ph.xml - that address contains a proxy.bib.uottawa.ca, which means that that address is (completely) useless to anyone in the world who is not inside the library network of the university of Ottawa (I get 'You have requested a resource that is restricted to current University of Ottawa students, faculty and staff' on a login-window). Although some of those links can be 'translated' to real links, this one has me baffled.

I am sorry I can't be of more help in solving what should be linked to. --Dirk Beetstra ^{T C} 05:20, 30 March 2018 (UTC)Reply
