nph-verify.cgi falsly showing Ok 200 for expired domain park pages
under verify links, when i use nph-verify.cgi, it produces results like: Ok 200, bad request, unauthorized, forbidden, file not found, could not connect, internal error, gateway timeout, etc., so let say it rechecks the links database and tries to verify a site that has been in the database for years, and the original owner of the domain has abandoned or dropped their website and let the domain go to a domain registrar like godaddy.com.

the nph-verify won't show that the site is in fact not the original domain's site that was submitted to the directory, and so i can't delete it, it will keep showing the 'Ok 200' because it pulls up the now default godaddy.com 'domain landing park page/ad page' and not a 404 page. How can i show all the outdated URLs so i can delete them without having to visit each one and see if it is now just a domain park page? is there a plugin that can check this?
