Phew.
Thanks.
In that case, I'll push staging to live sometime soon. There are broken
links (far fewer) on live but that include TDB transaction material. It
seems to be related to whether a page has been updated or not -
guessing, the translator runs on a change in staging.

1/ Many internal links in the content were broken due to the changes in the

What's changed is that generated links use "-" for space (not "_"), lowercase
is used for everything and it drops non-alphanumerics.
I'm done a wholesale fixing of the website by scanning for candidate broken
links and fixing.
# Upper case
find . -name \*mdtext -print | xargs grep -l '(#[^)]*[A-Z][^)]*)'
# Underscore
find . -name \*mdtext -print | xargs grep -l '(#.*_.*)'
and now, hopefully, things are much better.
It's a lot of change and the chances of missing something are rather too high.
If you have a moment, please check staging - pick a few pages and see if the
links in the main content area work. You may need to refresh as the caching is
quite long.
2/ style tweak
Separately ad independently, while in the area, I changed the line-height of
the content area so the lines are more widely spaced. On pages with large
paragraphs, I found the text less readable with the default line height. This
is made worse on my machines because Ubuntu's arial/helvetica does not display
very well (it's over anti-aliased leading to a less crisp glyphs).
