Summary: How to hide Links from weblinkchcker.py ?

Initial Comment:
We have articles on the Top Level Domains:

 .example  .invalid  .localhost  .test

in the Wikipedia of Ripuarian languages.

These domains are never offically created, as of RFC 26ß6, but are, or can be, used locally in a local network. Articles include weblinks to sample subdomains of those, which is fine.

Weblinkchecker keeps complaing about them, which is not what authors intended.

So, we need a way to exclude those domains from weblinkcheckers attention (but not exclude the entire articles, btw.!)

How do we do that?

Reading documentation did not help.

If there is not yet a mechanism for it, please see this as a feature request, and move it accordingly.

Thanks.
