So let's say that I cite this in an article about Google's privacy issues.
What is the correct course of action for another editor?
A. Remove the link without replacing it;
B. Remove the link but only after replacing it with an equivalent source;
C. Leaving it alone but requesting a better source on the talk;
Of course, you are by no means restricted to these options. And this is not
exactly a vague and unlikely hypothesis; Slate is an eminently reputable and
reliable source by our guidelines, and the piece covers an encyclopedic
issue.
