Receive 403 from working URL

[danielinteractive]

Hello @gaborcsardi,

maybe a naive question, but I am not sure why I receive "403: Forbidden" from checking
https://doi.org/10.1002%2f%28SICI%291097-0258%2819971030%2916%3a20%3c2349%3a%3aAID-SIM667%3e3.0.CO%3b2-E
is it because Wiley has some kind of check for non-human access or so?

If that is the case, is there an option to "whitelist" this for urlchecker usage?

Thanks a lot,
cheers
Daniel

I think so:

❯ curl -s -L --head 'https://doi.org/10.1002%2f%28SICI%291097-0258%2819971030%2916%3a20%3c2349%3a%3aAID-SIM667%3e3.0.CO%3b2-E' | grep ^HTTP
HTTP/2 302
HTTP/2 403

If that is the case, is there an option to "whitelist" this for urlchecker usage?

Maybe: #45.

OK I guess this is duplicate from #45 then
