[BUG] When checking markdown file some links have trailing period
Closed this issue · 3 comments
When checking markdown files. get a lot of links with a trailing period when the check runs on them. however this trailing period does not exist in the markdown file itself
simple solution could be just to remove any trailing periods from the url string before testing

- [SOGC on Emergency Contraception (2015)](https://www.jogc.com/article/S1701-2163(16)39372-0/fulltext)Thank you @theskillwithin for creating this issue. I was unable to reproduce this issue. Can you share a file or failed run if you have run it in an action?
Well that . is not the part of the failed link but the message Linkspector shows.
If you check the status it shows 403 which means server did not process the request. Which is common when using the GitHub action because they don't want too many bots to block the traffic.
