Perhaps this should be edited to provide different instructions for the described feedback (github issues, maybe?), rather than simply deleted, leaving no path for that feedback?

I thought about re-writing stating that feedback for POD can be provided via Github. But the github repo is already linked from the module metadata and various other places.
annocpan came from a time where there was no github and collaboration was much more difficult, svn.perl.org n- where this module was hosted previously - was 'read only' for everybody except the author and you had to have a 'commit bit' for pushing and pull requests did not exists, they were diff files.
Of course it might still be desirable to have explicit text soliciting feedback for the POD; and that could definitely added, or the original paragraph can be re-phrased, or whatever. The PR was just for 1. pointing out that the links were invalid, 2. adding a one-click way to remove those invalid links.
Those are: not existing anymore, hosting some link farm, and read-only, respectively.
