[ARCHIVED] Link Validator Errors

I'm trying to use the Link Validator to check for broken links. The problem is, it shows 80+ broken links. Most of them are for pages or files that I have deleted and don't need or want them anymore. Is there a way to use the link validator that is actually useful...as in the validator only picks up links that really need attention? It is a HUGE time consumer to go through 80+ links only to find one true error. What am I doing wrong?

Or is there a way to double delete the unwanted content so it doesn't show up in the link validator?

Hello @KrisBumsted,

If the Link Validator is displaying pages that no longer exist in your course, will you please use the Report a Problem link in Canvas so that someone can look into this further?

If you have suggestions for improvements to the Link Validator tool, please share them in the Idea Conversations space.
