@DCDuring, did something change with the website, or did this never link correctly? I noticed the issue at Sargassum, which seems to have an inaccurate number. —Μετάknowledgediscuss/deeds 03:48, 31 July 2020 (UTC)Reply

It seems they've significantly changed the addressing of their pages:
https://www.algaebase.org/search/genus/detail/?genus_id=77&-session=abv4:AC1F0F3E079900A4A9XsB800EA4A for Sargassum
They formerly had: http://www.algaebase.org/browse/taxonomy/{{{1}}}
For a species, now:
https://www.algaebase.org/search/species/detail/?species_id=826
I'll have to to check for other ranks, change the template and documentation and revisit at least a sample of pages. i hope the id numbers haven't changed, at least not all of them. DCDuring (talk) 06:03, 31 July 2020 (UTC)Reply
The template is used fewer than 100 times, so it won't be too hard to restore order. DCDuring (talk) 06:05, 31 July 2020 (UTC)Reply
@DCDuring: Let me know if you need any help. —Μετάknowledgediscuss/deeds 06:06, 31 July 2020 (UTC)Reply
Thanks. I might. Their site just went down for maintenance, so it's not a good time to make the changes, since we can't be sure how addresses for other ranks are formed, though we can guess. DCDuring (talk) 06:12, 31 July 2020 (UTC)Reply
