I assume there will be some way to include links to outside pages, even
if you don't want users to have the ability to link graphics onto their
Lugnet pages.

Oh-ho-ho-ho, yes.  Absolutely.  That's how people can link to their real
homepage (if they have one) or other things on the net that strike their
fancy.

It's also an important way to harvest links for the hierarchical links
collections.  That is, each time a new URL is encountered, it'll probably
go onto a list of "unknown/unrecognized" URLs waiting to be described and/or
categorized.  For example, someone's web site on hyperdrive motivators
might go into the Star Wars and Building categories.

And besides, if off-site links weren't allowed, the system would be much
less useful.

(...) Do you plan to have an automated cleaning of offsite links? There seem to be a bunch of broken links on the links page. (25 years ago, 29-Jun-99, to lugnet.general, lugnet.admin.general)
