Pull request overview
This PR successfully fixes three failing CI/CD jobs by addressing a Jekyll Liquid syntax parsing error, excluding template notebooks from automated validation, and expanding link checker ignore patterns for Jekyll-specific and rate-limited URLs.
Key changes:
- Wrapped dbt snapshot code block in
{% raw %}...{% endraw %}tags to prevent Jekyll from parsing Liquid template syntax - Excluded
Analytical-HandsOn-Projects/directory from nbval tests as these are user-guided templates requiring external datasets, not executable tests - Added ignore patterns for mailto links, Jekyll relative URLs, fragment identifiers, and rate-limited domains (Amazon, Uber, Kaggle)

Added {% raw %} tags around dbt snapshot SQL code block to escape Liquid syntax that was causing Jekyll build failures |
.github/workflows/ci.yml |
Excluded Analytical-HandsOn-Projects/ from nbval tests since these notebooks are user templates requiring external data downloads |
.markdown-link-check.json |
Added ignore patterns for mailto links, Jekyll-specific relative URLs (^/), anchors (^#), and domains that block automated requests |

Consider adding inline comments to document why these patterns are being ignored, especially for the broad patterns like ^/ and ^#. This helps future maintainers understand that these are Jekyll-specific patterns that cannot be validated by markdown-link-check in the source files.
For example:
{ "pattern": "^/", "reason": "Jekyll relative URLs - valid at runtime" },
{ "pattern": "^#", "reason": "Fragment identifiers - validated by Jekyll" },Note: The markdown-link-check tool doesn't support a "reason" field, but adding a comment block above these patterns would help document the intent.
| { "pattern": "^mailto:" }, | |
| { "pattern": "^/" }, | |
| { "pattern": "^mailto:" }, | |
| // Jekyll relative URLs (e.g., {{ "/path" | relative_url }}) – resolved at runtime, not by markdown-link-check | |
| { "pattern": "^/" }, | |
| // Fragment identifiers within the same page – anchors generated/validated by Jekyll, not reliably checkable here |
Three CI jobs were failing: Jekyll build on Liquid syntax error, nbval on template notebooks missing data, and markdown-link-check on unreachable/relative URLs.
