split Ultimate Hosts Blacklist Domains into segment ViewUrls

Open DandelionSprout opened this issue 5 years ago • 5 comments

"Ultimate Hosts Blacklist - Domains" and "Ultimate Hosts Blacklist Domains" both have the canonical URL of https://filterlists.com/lists/ultimate-hosts-blacklist-domains, which lead to the information of the former. This makes it impossible to access the latter list's links through FilterLists.com.

Sure I was mostly just in need of accessing the latter list to see if they were duplicates of one another or not, but still.

Hmm, yeah, the canonical link algorithm drops all special characters from the list title, so these two lists would be seen as duplicates.

The simplest solution would be if we verify whether these are duplicates or not. If they are, delete one or combine them somehow. If they aren't, maybe add the maintainer's name to the title or something to differentiate them.

Here are permalinks to the two in the data file so we can determine if they are duplicates.

Looking into the two lists for a few minutes, it seems to be Ultimate Hosts Blacklist - Domains that is the best version, surprisingly enough; as the other list randomly cuts off at O in its alphabetic order.

Hmm, I think it's cuz the other one is split into three parts. https://github.com/mitchellkrogza/Ultimate.Hosts.Blacklist/tree/master/domains

related. #503

#503 is resolved. one list can now be split across multiple ViewUrls by using the segmentNumber property in FilterListViewUrl.json

this is unblocked
