Hi Jean-Louis, I'm very sorry to have given such a bad present. I'm the one messing with this page, not the other editors.
I was trying to perform the migration of the page to the database, so you could edit it with site forms, as we did before with Shako. As there, the current process ends with the removal of the original html page's location: anyone trying to reach /large.dir/tamerlane2.html should be met with a 404, but with a link to the new location*. For some reason that didn't work right here (and that's what Fergus was replying to me about, though I don't see any extraneous ItemIDs that could be causing the issue).
For now, I've just put the html file back, so that it appears at the original address; the information in the database has however been moved to this new "member-submitted" page: comments, favorites, etc. are all attached here and will not appear on the html page (and cannot be added there, because that page no longer has an ItemID). The new page can be accessed (and edited!) at https://www.chessvariants.com/rules/Tamerlane2, but it ought to be at /rules/TamerlaneII, matching the ItemID.
(* I think even nicer could be a 301 page and perhaps an automatic redirect, but we hadn't talked that bit through yet)
Also happy birthday! (though maybe I've missed the cutoff in your time zone...)
