This is an external link checker tool for Wikimedia Foundation projects.  It uses standard HTTP response code and some redirect heuristics to detect dead links.

== Using in a nutshell ==
<div class="noprint" style="clear: right; border: solid #aaa 1px; margin: 1em 0 1em 1em; font-size: 90%; background: #f9f9f9; width: 250px; padding: 4px; spacing: 0px; text-align: left; float: right;">
<div style="float: left;"><img alt="Wikipedia" src="http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/archive/6/63/20081217044913%21Wikipedia-logo.png/50px-Wikipedia-logo.png" width="50" height="50" border="0" /></div>
<div style="margin-left: 60px;">[[m:Wikipedia|Wikipedia]] has more about this subject:
<div style="margin-left: 10px;">
* '''[[WP:DEADREF]]'''
* '''[[WP:DEADLINK]]'''
*'''[[WP:CHECKLINKS]]'''
</div>
</div>
</div>

* Paste the URL or page title into the top box and click "Check article".
* The tool uses AI to classify links to three groups: Working links (<span style="background:#ffffff;">White</span> and <span style="background:#EEEEB2;">Yellow</span>), Broken links (<span style="background:#EED0B2;">Orange</span> and <span style="background:#EEB2B2;">Red</span>), and Indeterminate (<span style="background:#CFEEB2;">Green</span> and <span style="background:#B2CFEE;">Blue</span>)
* The tool is over 98% correct with these classifications, but I'm always trying to improve it
* Click the row to open the diagnostic display or click on the link to open in an inline-frame.
* Use the [[WP:CHECKLINKS#Repair|built-in tools]] to fix, these will be rewritten to be easier to understand.  [[WP:CHECKLINKS#Redirects|'''Do not "fix" redirects''']].

TODO mention

which uses the following javascript to 
        var url = "";
        var redirectString = "";
        var requestedPage = window.location.href;
        var lowerCase = requestedPage.toLowerCase();
        if(lowerCase != requestedPage)
            url = lowerCase
        else if(requestedPage.indexOf("dev.") > -1)
            url = requestedPage.replace("dev.www","www2");
        else
            url = requestedPage.replace("www","www2");
        if(url != requestedPage)
            window.location.href = url;

Also note that some scripts can break URLs (use wikiblame)
