Being in a morbid mood, I checked out the updated rules (2018-6-29) and then ended up at the FAQs; and found some bad links and outdated information. The below list cannot be considered a comprehensive listing of everything that needs to be edited on this site.

Just sayin'.


"Jobs @ Anime News Network" (Staff Openings page) | https://animenewsnetwork.com/staff-openings
The "Convention Corresponedent" entry needs to be updated for 2020. Or at least deleted.
Zac's email address (shown twice) needs to be deleted from the page (unless someone has taken it over).

I did not test the links on the "Newsfeed" page.

"ANN Copyright Policy" page (https://animenewsnetwork.com/copyright-policy)
Under the "References:" section the 2nd link (http://laws.justice.gc.ca/en/C-42/) is dead.
Under the "Recommended Reading" section the 2nd link (https://www.eff.org/CAF/law/ip-primer) is dead.

Q.#59: I suggest inserting a notation stating that the "Answerman" column was terminated last year.

Q.#65: The 4th link ("TAN news coverage") is dead.

Q.#66: The 3rd link ("previous two answers") needs to be revised.

Q.#68: Last I heard, both Blockbuster and Suncoast are defunct.

Q.#69: The Funimation link could use a (slight) revision -- not absolutely necessary.

Thanks.

As it happens, I just edited the job posting yesterday.

I'll fix the others in the coming days.

Forgot to mention:
On the "Post a reply" page that comes up when you click on the "post reply" link/icon, the last line that shows up (in italics) under "Teh Rules" reads:
Quote:
This is an abridged version of the full forum rules

That link needs to be revised.
