Hello,

a Debian user pointed to a 404 URL in the documentation with the correct one:

diff --git a/doc/wget.texi b/doc/wget.texi
index 755f882c..8645b257 100644
--- a/doc/wget.texi
+++ b/doc/wget.texi
@@ -4285,7 +4285,7 @@ this:
@end example

This is explained in some detail at
-@url{http://www.robotstxt.org/wc/meta-user.html}. Wget supports this
+@url{http://www.robotstxt.org/meta.html}. Wget supports this
method of robot exclusion in addition to the usual @file{/robots.txt}
exclusion.

If you want to fix more URLs from this webpage:

$ rgrep robotstxt.org *
...
NEWS:<http://www.robotstxt.org/wc/norobots-rfc.txt>.
src/res.c: is still available at <http://www.robotstxt.org/wc/norobots.html>.
src/res.c: <http://www.robotstxt.org/wc/norobots-rfc.html>.
src/res.c: <http://www.robotstxt.org/wc/norobots-rfc.txt>, section 3.2.2. */

removing the wc/ in these URLs should result in correct ones.

Thanks and regards

Noël
