BM&FBovespa changed their website and they didn't keep old URLs valid. I tried to edit the Infobox for this page but I didn't find where to place the new address for the company's reference page on the new version of bmfbovespa.com.br. *We need someone that knows how to update the links to change to the new address below:*

It is impressive, however, to see the standards adopted in the technological choices of a company like BVMF. How can they possibly do it? I mean, you spend money to redesign your site, then you put up some different skin for roughly the same bad backend as before, but you are not satisfied with the results and you decide to break old permalinks, and keep information even more difficult to find. That's their concept of _transparency_ in action.

How come the new permalink for the listing of one of its major companies is some aspx nonsense that queries for the local government's listing id for the company (in the case of VALE, it's # 4170). It should look like this: https://www.nyse.com/quote/XNYS:VALE. That's how to design a decent URL. But anyways, I could spend the whole day listing examples like this, since I've been in close relationship with this company (BVMF) for many years. With time you get to know your partners in subtle ways. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2804:14D:5C70:949B:D5:6900:683C:F63B (talk) 12:42, 5 May 2016 (UTC)
