Stuff on the D20 System Guide and Reviews publisher pages

So I've found two links to company "Homepage"s that had extra "http://"es in them - one was to Dragon Scale Counters' website, and another website that I can't remember...

**Mid-post composition update: In fact - I just checked both the Green Ronin and Wizards publisher pages in the Reviews section and both "Homepage" links had an extra "http://" at the front of the address. I'm guessing this is an endemic problem.

On a quasi-related note: Dragon Scale Counters is now DSC Games and their website is http://www.dscgames.com/

I was going to email Morrus, but I figured that posting a bug category message in Meta was just as good or better - did I figure right?
Thanks!

I'm aware of this - it occured during the conversion to vbulletin. I haven't thought up a way to automate the stripping of the redundant set yet - and this is a low priority compared to other bugs in the system. However, I do intend to fix it.

You don't need to do this all on your own. Most publishers would be happy to clean up their own sections if they could access them. Can you get it set up so that publishers can have one person from their organization admin their own section? Without changes they make requiring approval (which necessitates nearly as much work as just doing it yourself)? If a publisher representative abuses their admin ability you can take it away or remove the publisher completely (which would be plenty enough deterent against abuse, IMO).

Mark, there is an option that may do what you are describing. I placed your name in Creative Mountains field. Can you see if you can edit creative mountain and we shall see if that works.
