A question

There is a broken link on Computer Game Site.

Does it correct?
  

Top answer

I think that "on" is acceptable. I've also seen "broken link to". I'm not sure which one is correct in your case.

Dear Qut,

You may say «there is a broken link on the Computer Game website». The link is then on the Computer Game site.

You may also say ««there is a broken link to the Computer Game website» or «the link to the Computer Game website is broken». The link is then on another website.

Hence, we certainly needed the context.

In fact, "Is it correct" is absolutely no problem. I just try to writing in an alternative way, since "correct" is a verb. Pls. advice.

Thanks

Dear Qut,

«To correct» is a transitive verb. It therefore requires an object. It is for this reason that you may not say «does it correct?».

You may however say «Will you correct my English?». «My English» is then the object of «correct».
