It appears that reference number 5 (Yahoo! to Acquire Yoyodyne Earthweb News. October 12, 1998.) has a broken link. This is where it sends you: http://news.earthweb.com/bus-news/article.php/22911 Bold Edits (talk) 19:34, 19 December 2013 (UTC)

Reference #34 is no longer viable unless there is a cached version of that page. The "Power 150" no longer exists.Shadow9939 (talk) 13:06, 9 July 2016 (UTC)shadow9939

This whole section is simply promotional, right? Should it be removed? Bir oqughuchi (talk) 05:12, 29 April 2016 (UTC)

Of the section there were four things it discussed; a website whose launch he was involved in called ChangeThis, an alternative MBA program he ran in 2008-09, the Kickstarter campaign for his book The Icarus Deception, and lastly a sentence mentioning his podcast. Concerning the first two (which can be read in this older revision), they both mostly consist of references to either Godin's blog or (in the case of ChangeThis) to the site of the business in question. The exceptions are a broken link in the ChangeThis part (which is actually just a link to a search results page on findarticles.com), and one Forbes article in the MBA program one. In short, they did seem to be overly detailed (ironic, I know) in their coverage so I chose to remove them. The book Kickstarter was moved to the Writing section, as it relates to his literary work, and the podcast was moved to the Business ventures section, leaving the section in question empty, and so it was deleted. I also removed a POV tag that I assume was related to this issue. Tpdwkouaa (talk) 23:56, 18 September 2016 (UTC)
