There's a link for it in the sidebar for now (bottom of page on mobile). Would consider adding it to the nav bar, but it's getting cluttered already. Will probably add links to it from the rules and about pages.

I have also added recent provider tags from August - October 2022. Still need to go through May, June and July.
I'm sorry but we're going to have to let you go. We've appreciated your hard work and dedication but we simply cannot let this transgression pass..........
I removed the tag because I chose to. I work with clients across multiple channels, so taking down one listing doesn’t mean I’ve stopped offering services elsewhere. Everything I do is self‑funded and debt‑free; I have the resources to run my businesses long term. The Yeti is 49 and retired, that’s background, not a liability. No need to speculate further; I’ll post updates where appropriate.

At quick glance, these might be candidates for being purged?

Is a formal process for removing a host besides the obvious out-of-business evidence? charityhost might be a provider to end relations with? I can think of one other that should be considered, but some of you won't like it.

Oh right, might have to leave that thanks, but pretty VPS and BGP service stuff is definitely gone. Maybe it's not taking new business? I assume the admins have a contact address that can be used for a liveliness test every so often. Maybe failure to respond after 3 contact attempts or no login for 2+ years a provider gets marked as "idle" or something?
Elsewhere someone proposed Virmach be stripped of its provider tag. It doesn't seem like an unreasonable request, but I think the approach is not particularly defensible in this case. I've been meaning to ask, should there be a process for providers to maintain their tags? Some sort of liveliness check for sure, but maybe some, hopefully easy and simple, ongoing eligibility criteria that must be maintained? Then I'd suggest the answer is yes, there should be some basic policy to remain on the list in good standing.
I don't think this needs to be complicated. Maybe even delegate some of this work to forum users, where they bring to the attention of the group an argument for de-listing, and mods can decide whether such an action is warranted or worth further investigation. Possible causes of de-listing or suspension might be the start of a policy, and for guidance purposes only such as (suggestive only)

I advocate for a minimum level of Quality of Service (QoS) test and when those criteria are not met the provider is purged... I suggest just this criteria for now: "answer publicly within 1 month of a concern being raised in the forum" (which is quite lax since it does not deal with the outcome, it is only about getting a public reply from the provider). Thanks.

We are a hosting provider too and have this tag, but for some reason we aren't mentioned here.
Just not quite caught up adding the provider tags issued for May, June, and July to the list. If I am correct you are in May.
You have now been added! I've also added the other providers who got the tag since May. Hopefully no one missing, but let me know if so.

Right, minor update on the provider list to remove VPS as one of the offered services. An update, not a removal.
