If you have, don't worry: just edit the page again to fix it. If I misunderstood what happened, or if you have any questions, you can leave a message on my operator's talk page.

I attempted to search your FTPs and articles about replacing a null link, but was unsuccessful. Perhaps it's the encyclopedic depth of your search archives or possibly, I'm just dense. In any case, I was referred to your page by a volunteer.

- WikiSnickety, the {{reflist}} template is a quick way to list all of the references found in the <ref>...</ref> tags, so you will not find the actual references in the References section. When you click on the small a next to Reference #1, you'll see it takes you to the Slogan in the {{infobox}}. This is where the reference actually is. By editing the page, you'll see the Wired reference after the company slogan - just change the URL appropriately, save the page, and everything should be fixed. If you want more help, stop by the Teahouse, Wikipedia's live help channel, or the help desk to ask someone for assistance. Primefac (talk) 19:31, 20 August 2015 (UTC)
