Problem with 5 Citations

[edit]

I just commented out the |website= on five citations because they are throwing an alert on the article for External link in |website= (help) on each citation and I believe this was just cited improperly but I don't want to remove an editor's work if I am wrong. Feel free to revert my changes if there's a reason and the intention was to cite both the |url= and |website= in the same citation. I specifically changed and commented out:

  1. "Wearables has become a household name. Could nearables be next?"
  2. "Estimote Wants To Pioneer 'Nearables' With New Stickers Beacon Hardware"
  3. "That 'Internet of Things' Thing"
  4. "With iBeacon, Apple is going to dump on NFC and embrace the internet of things"
  5. "What Are "Nearables," And Why Is Ideo So Excited About Them?"

My suspicion is they were all created by the same editor and they did not understand how to do the citation properly but I could be mistaken (hence why I commented them out instead of deleting the |website= in each cite). Again, feel free to revert / edit / correct me if I am mistaken (if you could though, ping me so I can understand why this would be done so I won't do this again in the future).
