How about putting your links in a nice file
for link in `cat mylinksfile`; do
wget $link
blah blah blah
done
using && in place of ; might help too, as the next command (after &&) only
gets ran if the first was error free.
also if [!$?] should work in this case as well (test it though)

You need a book on UNIX Shell scripting. There are loads of free stuff
out there. :)
