Broken template

This template has now broken. Crockford have updated their website and now the links no longer work. Could this be updated please? Gaia Octavia Agrippa Talk 15:43, 3 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I think the website may have updated. The urls are now https://www.crockford.org.uk/clergydetail?clergyid=. I've changed the template to this and it seems to be working. Fingers crossed, Gaia Octavia Agrippa Talk 21:34, 28 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Nope, all the IDs have changed. Try following the template from Giles Fraser, Michael Sadgrove and Robert Atwell, to pick three at random. Very sad face. DBD 22:47, 28 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
This is going to be really tedious. DBD 22:51, 28 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Oh dear. At least the template works now... I wonder how many Anglican clergy there are with wikipedia articles? Oddly, Atwell works for me. We'll have to correct them manually to their new numbers if you're up for it? Gaia Octavia Agrippa Talk 23:22, 28 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
To answer my own question, less than 500 articles use the template. Though, unfortunately, some of those articles are lists that use it multiple times. Gaia Octavia Agrippa Talk 23:30, 28 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
I'm up for it. Where shall we keep track of progress? Or one each work forwards alphabetically and one backwards? DBD 09:05, 29 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Great! I'm working top down on the list. Could you work up from the bottom? Gaia Octavia Agrippa Talk 13:53, 29 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Erm, except when I hit that link the order looks nothing like the order you've been doing them according to your contribs. Could you paste your order here? DBD 14:21, 29 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Here's the order that it appears for me: Gaia Octavia Agrippa Talk 14:53, 29 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Great; thanks. I'll get started with McFarlane. DBD 14:59, 29 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Funny thing. Farlane, Betts and Poll all work... DBD 15:08, 29 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Also, I've added a |forenames= parameter because the entries aren't titled with initials any more. (I've not deleted the |initials= parameter, so previous ones won't be borken, but I'll be changing to forenames from Wilcox upwards.) DBD 14:29, 30 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you so much for your help! Gaia Octavia Agrippa Talk 21:35, 30 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
