:::: Was just having a look at it, and so far everything works fine for me (this is on Mac OS X). Among other benefits: I can use this to verify my own RC updates; recently I've seen tasks where you've had to fix editing mistakes I've made... --[[User:SqrtNegInf|SqrtNegInf]] ([[User talk:SqrtNegInf|talk]]) 23:46, 15 April 2018 (UTC)
 
== vanity badges ==
Kudos on your recent removal of some of the vanity badges.   There are only a few (that I know of) contributors that include vanity badges, and as you probably know, vanity badges makes updating and/or changing of those tasks problematic, because when an program entry/solution is "signed" (or somehow otherwise implied it is the work of a sole author), it makes it much harder to make updates and/or improvements to a "signed" programming solution/entry without (in some way) invalidating the signature/ownership/authorship.   But, I suppose I'm preaching to the choir.   It would be nice if Michael Mol (or some other deity) could make a much stronger statement regarding vanity badges (possibly as a policy statement) that vanity badges are very strongly discouraged (or forbidden) from being used on Rosetta Code.   Eliminating vanity badges makes for a better (and much friendlier) Rosetta Code;   and it it helps to remove the ego (and also possibly ownership) from the computer program language entries/solutions.   -- [[User:Gerard Schildberger|Gerard Schildberger]] ([[User talk:Gerard Schildberger|talk]]) 02:48, 29 July 2018 (UTC)
