message: Hello, 
My name is Kristin Kelly, Senior Director of Communications for KinderCare Education. We rebranded our company at the beginning of the year (formerly Knowledge Universe). Thank you Wikipedia for moving that page over to our new name! 
To reflect the new name, can you please consider the following changes: 
Under this section: KinderCare Learning Centers (first/top section) 
Please change: 
KinderCare Learning Centers is an American operator of for-profit child care and early childhood education [4] facilities founded in 1969 and currently owned by Knowledge Universe
To read: 
... "currently owned by KinderCare Education" (source: http://www.bizjournals.com/portland/blog/2016/01/why-the-1-5knowledge-universe-is-changing-its-name.html and http://www.kindercare.com/about-us/connect-with-us/press-releases/knowledge-universe-education-llc-to-change-name-to-kindercare-education)

text: I would like to see an independent source supporting this statement, not an entry in the company blog. Preferably an article by a major news outlet; press releases are not acceptable and I'd prefer not to rely upon a business journal. Basically, when Wikipedia writes about companies, we do not want to rely upon what companies say about themselves when the interpretation of that claim could be disputed.

text: We don't delete references just because they are expired or the site has been taken down. Websites like the Internet Archive often retain copies of cited articles, and there are automated scripts on Wikipedia that periodically check for such copies, and then fix the links on our articles. The references must remain so as to keep track of where the information in the article came from. Altamel (talk) 18:42, 22 January 2016 (UTC)

text: I deleted the second link because under your proposed change, it would just be a duplicate of the first. Altamel (talk) 18:42, 22 January 2016 (UTC)

text: Hi Kristin. I've accepted some of the changes above, and rejected some of the others. Hope this helps. Altamel (talk) 18:42, 22 January 2016 (UTC)
