I am removing some sections that I no longer want on the website, then fixing broken links once the pages in that section are gone.  More than 90 pages have been removed.<\/p>\n<p>After that site update, I am doing full backups of this blog, the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.bootedman.com\/wiki\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Boot Wiki Knowledgebase<\/a>, my complex <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bootedmangallery.com\/gallery\/index.php?cat=3\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">cop galleries<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bootedmangallery.com\/gallery\/index.php?cat=4\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">adventure galleries<\/a> as well as the entire website.  All of it.<\/p>\n<p>Once backups complete, I am running &#8220;orphan finding&#8221; software.  Orphans are files such as images that once were linked on a page, but if I changed the page or deleted it, the file no longer is linked from anywhere, and becomes an orphan.<\/p>\n<p>I sense that I have hundreds of orphan files on my server and it&#8217;s way past time to clean them up. <\/p>\n<p>Anyway, this is a weekend of site maintenance.  The full site and this blog should be fully functional soon.  Thanks for your patience.<\/p>\n<p>Life is short:  if you own and operate a large and old website, you&#8217;ve gotta maintain it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>If you have tried to visit my website and it behaves slowly or not at all, there is a reason.
