Broken Fermilab notebook link in Moffat PSF documentation #1368

Closed

Description

@nikosarcevic

On the [PSF documentation page](https://galsim-developers.github.io/GalSim/_build/html/psf.html), under the Moffat section, the link to a notebook hosted at Fermilab appears to be inaccessible.

Could this link be updated or the notebook hosted somewhere accessible?

Thanks!

    I don't know what that original link was supposed to be, but this could be it: https://docslib.org/doc/3389571/psfs-and-sampling-of-images-in-astronomy-8-25-10-4-24-pm

    Thank you! Hope this is updated (but your link is super useful to me in the meantime!!)

    @ehneilsen Is there a better link for this? This is your note about PSFs and sampling in astronomical images.

    This old (now gone) page is not a great thing to use as a reference: it is "notes" in the sense of "short reminders of things I found while reading up on something", not formal documentation like a tech note. Within these informal notes are references to what I was taking notes on, and I think it would be better for the GalSim documentation to refer directly to these rather than my informal notes. I should still have my informal notes locally; I'll send you the files on slack shortly.

    Looking at the page where it's linked to, I suggest replacing the link to the notes to a link to Moffat's paper: https://scixplorer.org/abs/1969A%26A.....3..455M/abstract
