    I reported a while back that certain things have been removed from the Profile page.

    1.) Bookmarks
    2.) Community contributions (e.g, example here)

    Will this ever be restored to the Profile page or was there reason to have this removed that we are not aware of?

    Hi John,

    We removed bookmarks from the Profile page as the bookmarking service is going to be discontinued soon. We announced this publicly just today and you can find more details here.

    Community contributions will be restored into the Profile page. However, the capabilities will be significantly different as compared to the single hyperlink that existed previously. This is as part of our focus on revamping the profiling experiences, enabling the community to effectively connect and engage with each other.

    Thanks for the heads up, but that really sucks.
