Zuboff's epiphany removed[edit]

Within: Public company

Re: In 1992, Dr. Maxmin led Laura Ashley to its first profits since 1989, and in 1993 profits were expected to reach £12 million. But in early April 1994, two weeks before his wife's epiphany on national television, Dr. Maxmin abruptly resigned from Laura Ashley, citing major differences with Sir Bernard over strategy.[3]

______

The link cited no longer exists. Professor Shoshana Zuboff's epiphany is not explained here and is more relevant to her article than this one. It is explained here: http://www.strategy-business.com/article/04308?pg=all.

I am editing to remove the sub-clause.

Deprecated source tag[edit]

In my edit today which I have labelled "1970s - references and additional data", I had originally included a source which Wikipedia advised me, upon attempting to save, was a deprecated source. I therefore removed all instances of this source and replaced them with other sources, which subsequently saved without issue. However, this edit has still been tagged as an edit using a deprecated source. I would appreciate advice about why this is so, and how to correct it so that the tag no longer applies. Thank you for any help forthcoming. Ishel99 (talk) 10:25, 29 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
