Follow-up with a patch. I re-verified the twelve broken entries on
2026-10-05 (curl -L, desktop browser UA) and turned the report into a
diff against webml.

Dead hosts, entry removed (no live replacement found):
  comware.us, acucorporation.com, the-linux-academy.co.uk,
  swapon-group.com, LinuxForce.net

Broken sub-page URLs, pointed at the live site root instead:
  okts.ca, ariservizi.eu, educatux.com.br, hahnefeld.de, seo.al,
  tremplin-numerique.org, neps.de

The three detail pages for the removed entries
(english/consultants/acu.wml, comware.wml, swapon.wml) are deleted too.

Applies with 'git apply -p1', checked against current master.

Subject: [PATCH] consultants: remove dead entries and fix dead URLs

Five consultant domains no longer resolve (NXDOMAIN) and seven linked
URLs return HTTP 404. Verified 2026-10-05 with curl -L.

Removed entirely (host dead, no live replacement):
  comware.us, acucorporation.com, the-linux-academy.co.uk,
  swapon-group.com, LinuxForce.net
  (and their english/consultants/{comware,swapon,acu}.wml detail pages)

Changed to the live site root (base host still resolves):
  okts.ca, ariservizi.eu, educatux.com.br, hahnefeld.de,
  seo.al, tremplin-numerique.org, neps.de
