Description
Expected Behavior
Clicking on the link should take you to a website with content.
Current Behavior
The links currently go to a page that says, "Error establishing a connection to Database"
Possible Solution
Remove or update the links. Preferably update, but remove to avoid confusion.
Steps to Reproduce
Click on any of the 3 links below the given heading.
Context [OPTIONAL]
I was interested in learning more about implementing a search engine, but the dead links make it so I have to turn elsewhere.

Research direction
Locate the heading for implementing a search engine and its three links in the repository, then inspect each target. Update links that lead to usable content or remove those that cannot be repaired; the issue is done when all three links no longer lead to the database error page.
