Thread: [Wiki] Dead link in Index Maintenance page

Hi,

There is a dead link in the Index Maintenance page ( https://wiki.postgresql.org/wiki/Index%20Maintenance?nocache=0.11915300+1547460841#Index_Bloat ) in the Index Bloat section, the URL bloat view returns a 404.

Cheers,

Hi Dimitri,

A dead link to your old website has been pointed out to us.

Is the old content being referred to still useful for people
+ online somewhere, or should the link be nuked? :)

Regards and best wishes,

Justin Clift

Maybe Dimitri can provide an updated link for that page?

Thanks!

I have edited the wiki page to use the following URL:

  https://web.archive.org/web/20080603000756/http://pgsql.tapoueh.org/site/html/news/20080131.bloat.html

The page is not part of the current version of my website, and has not been for a long time. IIRC Tom Lane said on-list
thatthis view is pretty useless anyway, so I wouldn't bother too much about it. I didn't dare edit the wiki page with
suchcontent though.
