Thanks for taking the time to notice and help fix broken links! The citeseerx link doesn't work for me either. How did you find the PDF on squarespace? Is it part of a well known repository for journal articles? At first glance it isn't obvious if this is an "official" copy/hosting of this article or not. I don't think we want to link to "some random person's" squarespace upload, as the chances are that it will go away very soon or maybe was uploaded there from somewhere else. Overall, if it isn't some kind of reputable/well known journal article repository it might be better to not link to it. What do others think? |

I found https://www.tristanfletcher.co.uk/tutorials by googling for the author/the paper. Maybe this is a better place to link to? The downside is that it isn't a direct link to the article. The PDF linked from the page has a URL that is on squarepsace |

@betatim Thank you for investigating this! I eventually found the new Citeseerx link that works, so I replaced the old link with this one instead. |

Both CI failures were intermittent, I restarted them, one was due to intermittent HTTP 403 on Figshare #30761. |

Thanks for your PR, I enabled auto-merge so this will be merged when CI is green. |
