But what I don't understand is, if the link was only dead one time or only one day (like in Penguinisto-hosted items' cases) why were they deleted? You said, "If your links reported dead 2 days in a row then they were deleted." In our case it was only 2 hours, on one day. I understand that it's a big job to do this, but I think the script needs to give a longer grace period for server problems.
