External Link Issue

My main work on wikipedia is on medical and clinical articles and most of my time is spent working on the Wikimedia Journalisms of Medicine. That said I'm no expert on HAARP or similar matters, however I have a concern that the link to a Russian site in the "External Links" section when clicked causes two of my browsers to throw up privacy and expired site certificate warnings. Could one of the editors watching or with expertise on this article possibly find a solution to this problem? Cheers, ~~ Dr.khatmando (talk) 11:41, 12 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Which link are you referring to? None of the links in the External Links section of the page are Russian. — The Hand That Feeds You:^Bite 15:41, 12 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry, I removed the link, the page was inaccessible, see the diffs.- LuckyLouie (talk) 17:55, 12 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Update: by using the Internet Archive and Google translate, I was able to see the contents of the external link. It is an article from Pravda dated October 2002, that contains wild conspiracy theories about HAARP and gems such as “today, the American HAARP emitter is primarily a problem for terrestrial civilization. The United States, not joking, threatens all of humanity”. - LuckyLouie (talk) 20:15, 12 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Ugh, Pravda. Yeah, good call removing that one then. — The Hand That Feeds You:^Bite 21:43, 12 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Conspiracy theories section

Not sure if bullet point 3 really fits in this list. Seems like a legitimate investigation.51.52.43.171 (talk) 13:04, 30 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

It wasn't an investigation. According to the sources, it was an expression of concern that HARP could have something to do with environmental damage, i.e. rumors of weather control, which is a conspiracy theory in itself. - LuckyLouie (talk) 14:41, 30 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

EL to Bernard Eastlund website

Eastlund's site claiming credit for HAARP is included as an External Link. According to HAARP program manager John L. Heckscher, "HAARP certainly does not have anything to do with Eastlund's thing, that is just crazy. What we have here is a premier scientific research facility with military applications."^[1] So removal of the external link per WP:ELNO #2 is warranted. - LuckyLouie (talk) 14:44, 26 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
