2015-06-18 14:30:11 Matthew Paul Thomas description 1. Go to any of the sub-pages of "Building blocks" <https://design.ubuntu.com/apps/building-blocks>. 2. Follow any of the links to QML API references. What happens: 40% of the time you get a 404 page. In particular, the number of broken QML API links on: * <https://design.ubuntu.com/apps/building-blocks/views> is 3/3 * <https://design.ubuntu.com/apps/building-blocks/header> is 0/1 * <https://design.ubuntu.com/apps/building-blocks/list-items> is 1/1 * <https://design.ubuntu.com/apps/building-blocks/selection> is 1/6 * <https://design.ubuntu.com/apps/building-blocks/progress-activity> is 1/2 * <https://design.ubuntu.com/apps/building-blocks/text-input> is 1/3 * <https://design.ubuntu.com/apps/building-blocks/dialog> is 0/1. It's quite likely that most of these links worked when the guidelines were originally published. Many, though not all, of them are links to URLs of the form developer.ubuntu.com/en/api/apps/qml/sdk-14.04/*, and most of these URLs return documents if the "14.04" is changed to "14.10" or "15.04". This suggests that a swathe of documents is being removed from developer.ubuntu.com every six months without any redirects being set up. What should happen: either * documents should no longer be removed from developer.ubuntu.com every six months, or * the developer.ubuntu.com documents should stop including Ubuntu version numbers in their URLs, or * the process of removing a document from developer.ubuntu.com should include setting up a redirect; and * the links on design.ubuntu.com should be fixed. 1.
