Latest comment: 10 years ago by Timtempleton in topic Removal of two links


I removed two links just now, for very different reasons:

  • The one marked "Official site" (cdicorp.com) doesn't seem to work. Update: Oddly, some subpages of the official site work just fine (e.g. http://www.cdicorp.com/pages/Executives.aspx) but the main page still won't come up.
    • The site comes up fine for me now, as of November 14, 2013

  • The one for CDIcorp.info (note the different top-level domain) is someone's personal site for ax-grinding about an incident in which s/he feels wronged by CDI. While it is not Wikipedia's purpose nor policy to use the encyclopedia to protect any company's reputation, neither is it WP policy to put this kind of link. I am adding this message to the Talk page so that any interested editor will know the reasons the link was removed and will not assume that there would be removal of any properly sourced articles simply because they might be negative. See the veriability policy and the reliable sources policy for guidance as to what kinds of sources are accepted and how to cite them. Lawikitejana (talk) 18:38, 10 December 2012 (UTC)
