Hello, I have found that in the original email, the link to [1] Read more about our CFP guidelines/proposals when clicked shows take to *page not found. *That is because in the reference links below, the "[2]" is appended to the link like shown in bold here: [1] https://in.pycon.org/cfp/2020/proposals*/[2] * Which is actually redirecting you to the link *https://in.pycon.org/cfp/2020/proposals/%5B2%5D <https://in.pycon.org/cfp/2020/proposals/%5B2%5D> *and not* https://in.pycon.org/cfp/2020/proposals <https://in.pycon.org/cfp/2020/proposals/%5B2%5D> * which is the desired page. *Solution:* Please enter a space between [1] https://in.pycon.org/cfp/2020/proposals *<space>*[2] in your listed references.
