Hello fellow Wikipedians,

I have just added archive links to one external link on List of mergers and acquisitions by Symantec. Please take a moment to review my edit. If necessary, add {{cbignore}} after the link to keep me from modifying it. Alternatively, you can add {{nobots|deny=InternetArchiveBot}} to keep me off the page altogether. I made the following changes:

When you have finished reviewing my changes, please set the checked parameter below to true to let others know.

This message was posted before February 2018. After February 2018, "External links modified" talk page sections are no longer generated or monitored by InternetArchiveBot. No special action is required regarding these talk page notices, other than regular verification using the archive tool instructions below. Editors have permission to delete these "External links modified" talk page sections if they want to de-clutter talk pages, but see the RfC before doing mass systematic removals.

  • If you have discovered URLs which were erroneously considered dead by the bot, you can report them with this tool.

The article appears to have 70+ broken links to Thomson Reuters acquisition reports at alacrastore.com. However, in each case it appears that the archive link still works (with some errors). In a case like this, should we remove the broken link and make the archive link the primary one? Or should I try to find new sources? I was hoping to address the tag at the top of the article regarding broken and outdated links by doing some mundane work finding working links, etc.. I am affiliated with Symantec.

Led here from this Serverfault [Answer 2], to see if the largest SSL company really owned its competitors Geotrust and VeriSign and Thawte, which is creepy, this page lists VeriSign but not the other two.

The wikis for each confirm it does:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thawte

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GeoTrust

Is there some special reason these aren't included ? I hesitate to add in case there is. Claverhouse (talk) 07:55, 7 July 2017 (UTC)Reply
