Description Tisza Gergő 2010-03-18 16:05:17 UTC
Links used to download privately generated PDF files throw 404 errors when visited later. Example: 
http://hu.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Speci%C3%A1lis:K%C3%B6nyv&bookcmd=download&collection_id=3a9b478af26ea6a8&writer=rl&return_to=T%C3%B6r%C3%B6korsz%C3%A1g&uselang=en
Such links should fail in a user-friendlier way, with an error message saying the link has expired and maybe giving some pointers on how to generate publicly visible collections.

Currently it says:

File not found
Jump to: navigation, search

The file you are trying to download does not exist: Maybe it has been deleted and needs to be regenerated.

Return to Kezdőlap.


I think that's good enough.
