Niels Basjes created HBASE-12265:
------------------------------------

             Summary: HBase shell 'show_filters' points to internal Facebook URL
                 Key: HBASE-12265
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-12265
             Project: HBase
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: shell
            Reporter: Niels Basjes
            Priority: Minor


In the HBase shell the output of the show_filters command starts with this:
{code}
hbase(main):001:0> show_filters
Documentation on filters mentioned below can be found at: 
https://our.intern.facebook.com/intern/wiki/index.php/HBase/Filter_Language
ColumnPrefixFilter
TimestampsFilter
...
{code}

This documentation link cannot be reached by me. It seems to be an internal 
link to a wiki that can only be reached by Facebook employees.

This link is in this file in two places 
hbase-shell/src/main/ruby/shell/commands/show_filters.rb

So far I have not been able to find the 'right' page to point to (I did a quick 
check of the apache wiki and the hbase book).

So either remove the link or add a section to the hbase book and point there. I 
think the latter (creating documentation) is the best solution.

Perhaps Facebook is willing to donate the apparently existing pages?
