Website offline
editI've been doing a bit of reference updating and noticed that http://venn.lib.cam.ac.uk/ seems to be offline, therefore this template isn't functional. It isn't something I'm familiar with so I don't know if this is a temporary issue. I had a quick look at archive.org and there are some images of the site, but I don't know enough to suggest it as an idea. Trappedinburnley (talk) 13:04, 9 January 2016 (UTC)
- It's now at http://venn.lib.cam.ac.uk/acad/2016/search-2016.html but I'm unsure how to edit this template either. Comes Dunelmensis (talk) 20:16, 2 February 2016 (UTC)

editCould someone (User:Trappist the monk?) please make this template fetch the ID from Wikidata, using Cambridge Alumni Database ID (P1599), if available, and if there is no local value set? Andy Mabbett (Pigsonthewing); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 19:54, 13 August 2016 (UTC)
