:It's perfectly fine to link to a file instead of putting the script on page. For many simpler scripts, having them in-page makes them easier to maintain and track changes. However, this script is 16,000 lines, poorly maintained, and just didn't work for me. I think most end up giving up and writing their own custom hunting scripts over trying to debug/configure this in StormFront. - [[User:RY4NPW|padhg]] ([[User talk:RY4NPW|talk]]) 13:58, 23 May 2016 (CDT)

The script is linked to, but not hosted here on the Elanthipedia itself. Is this an okay way to present a script? Kashna 14:30 EST, May 23, 2016.

It's perfectly fine to link to a file instead of putting the script on page. For many simpler scripts, having them in-page makes them easier to maintain and track changes. However, this script is 16,000 lines, poorly maintained, and just didn't work for me. I think most end up giving up and writing their own custom hunting scripts over trying to debug/configure this in StormFront. - padhg (talk) 13:58, 23 May 2016 (CDT)
