Thanks to a handy dandy website I found, I can finally find out which links in pages are broken without having to spend time sifting through every single one (or maybe not, since it doesn't register blocked links, like Automatismes Sonores, as dead). Replaced a few links as a result (and found available link for Automatismes Sonores as well).
