In August of this year, I updated the link to the Roadgeeks font website from http://www.triskele.com/roadgeek-fonts to https://www.n1en.org/roadgeek-fonts/ since the former is now unaviailable. My edit was reverted by @Frost 5 days later. I am quite puzzled by this and would like to know the reason. 116.220.127.216 (talk) 08:30, 22 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"20241022083000","author":"116.220.127.216","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-116.220.127.216-20241022083000-Why_was_my_update_of_an_external_link_removed?","replies":["c-10mmsocket-20241022093600-116.220.127.216-20241022083000"]}}-->

As the website is 100% clear that the fonts are for hobbyist use, not for commercial use, and will not be released open source, then they should a) not be used to produce road signs and b) should not be linked to from the documentation page. 10mmsocket (talk) 09:36, 22 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"20241022093600","author":"10mmsocket","type":"comment","level":2,"id":"c-10mmsocket-20241022093600-116.220.127.216-20241022083000","replies":["c-116.220.127.216-20241022102500-10mmsocket-20241022093600"]}}-->
