When browsing the Gentoo Forums, i found this link: http://en.gentoo-wiki.com/wiki/Synaptics_Touchpad
When visiting that link i get displayed with:
Code:
MediaWiki 1.33 internal error

MediaWiki 1.33 requires at least PHP version 7.0.13 or HHVM version 3.18.5, you are using PHP 5.4.45.
Supported PHP versions

Please consider upgrading your copy of PHP. PHP versions less than 5.6.0 are no longer supported by the PHP Group and will not receive security or bugfix updates.

If for some reason you are unable to upgrade your PHP version, you will need to download an older version of MediaWiki from our website. See our compatibility page for details of which versions are compatible with prior versions of PHP.

Just want to make sure if that is a known Gentoo Website, and if it's a "safe" website?

No gentoo-wiki.com isn't official wiki, in past was unoffical gentoo wiki. You can find synaptics doc in official wiki page https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Synaptics

Hello fedeliallalinea, thank you for clearing that up.
But does browsing that link could potentially harm my system? I am very cautious on what websites i visit.
And just want to make sure if that particular url link is dangerous?

This particular link seems not dangerous html code is
Code:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en" dir="ltr">
   <head>
      <meta charset="UTF-8" />
      <title>MediaWiki 1.33</title>
      <style media='screen'>
         body {
            color: #000;
            background-color: #fff;
            font-family: sans-serif;
            padding: 2em;
            text-align: center;
         }
         p, img, h1, h2, ul  {
            text-align: left;
            margin: 0.5em 0 1em;
         }
         h1 {
            font-size: 120%;
         }
         h2 {
            font-size: 110%;
         }
      </style>
   </head>
   <body>

      <h1>MediaWiki 1.33 internal error</h1>

Moved from Networking & Security to Gentoo Forums Feedback.

If you make mention of the post you found the URL in, we can break/remove it to prevent this kind of confusion arising for any future reader of said post (this is not the first, nor the last time, probably).
