[[File:broken_link.jpg|thumb|240px|left|Custom event replaced with large number]]There has been a few randomly reported instances of media links to custom events becoming broken. [[File:broken_link2.jpg|thumb|right|500px|Broken link to a custom event]]This can be difficult to find and only reveals itself when media items that were previously linked to people and events, no longer appear on an individual's 'getperson' pages. Another symptom of this problem is that media items that were originally linked to a custom event, appear in the "All Media" report with a large 6, 7 or 8 digit number instead of the event that they were originally linked to. Another way of identifying these broken links is by taking a look at the media links section in "Admin | Media | (Action)Edit". A broken media link can be easily identified by a colon where the link used to be. See the graphic on the right for what that looks like. Under the "Event" heading the custom event would be detailed but in this instance all that remains is a colon (:).
