When an Official Site Disappears or a Shop Is Renamed
A 404 page, old link, or renamed brand does not automatically prove closure. Check sources, domain, area, and official notices in order before treating an old record as current.
First check whether only one page is broken
A site may change its URL structure, merge an old page into the homepage, or keep only a mobile version. Open the same-domain homepage and navigation before treating one dead deep link as closure.
Compare the name, domain, and area
A renamed site may retain an old-brand notice or move to a new domain. Treat it as a possible continuation only when the name, area, or official notice connects the records; otherwise keep it unconfirmed.
Do not present old data as current
If no current official site can be found, an old page may remain a historical source or lead, but its price, hours, and visitor terms should not be shown as current. Keep the record pending review instead of filling gaps by guesswork.
Leave a clear path for corrections
If you find a new official site, rename notice, or explicit closure announcement, send the URL through the listing’s correction link. The record changes only when the new source is clear enough; a single rumor does not overwrite it.
