Dear all,
In an attempt to remove some old pages that contained outdated metadata,
I've tried to make them return a 404 or 410 and then pinging Sindice with them.
Since that didn't work, I decided to fill them with some completely unrelated RDF,
hoping that this would be picked up instead of the old contents.
However, reindexing doesn't work for the following pages;
they maintain their old contents from 2011-05-16.
Maybe their unusual URLs have something to do with that?
(They seem to be an artefact from faulty redirections.)
Dear Gio,
Thanks. I’ve turned them into 404s now.
Basically, everything from domain ruben.3click.be will now return 404,
so anything that remains in the index indicates that something went wrong.
Best,
Ruben
I do… I’ve pinged them almost daily the past couple of months ;-)
That’s exactly the problem: pinging doesn’t help (whether I return 200/301/404/410).

the 404+ping should really work, we'll look into this as soon as the
person that knows how to follow the flow is back from the summer leave.
