jkoshy added the link in question.  I don't know if we really want to 
remove it, or if it's possible to find another copy of that article.

This seems to be the same article:

This is not identical, but covers the same subject matter (more or less).

For the record, I think that we need a way to process stale URLs like
these in the 'press.xml' file.  Perhaps an extra attribute on the <url>
element which triggers the processing style sheet to markup stale URLs
appropriately.

I'll be working on this, and hence am keeping this PR open.

This has been fixed. 
This PR is also very old. 

In regards to the 'method', we have such a method in place (was linbot, 
now webcheck) although, if its used is another story.
