Yeah, I understand the motivation behind using drupal.org/admin/blah.  


But the handbook should be geared towards newbies, or those trying to
learn Drupal.  And when they click on a link taking them to an "Access
Denied" page, that reflects poorly on the Drupal community.  We should
replace all those with a written out URL, like
http://www.example.com/admin/blah.


I think it is worth it to go through the handbook and fix all those. 
I'm willing to do it myself if I get rights.

http://drupal.org/handbook/modules/notify - 2 links that should just
write out admin/blah instead of link to it

Can someone fix the two links on
http://drupal.org/handbook/modules/notify
or if I can rights, I can do it.

It seems that many of the handbook pages have this link included.  


e.g.:
http://drupal.org/handbook/modules/massmailer
http://drupal.org/handbook/modules/node_privacy_byrole
http://drupal.org/handbook/modules/node_import


That could be a convenience feature:


1. copy link to clipboard
2. paste to location bar
3. edit the URL to point to your site
