Description

The TypeConverter [page](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/api/system.componentmodel.typeconverter?view=net-8.0) has two interesting links:

[How to: Implement a Type Converter](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/previous-versions/visualstudio/visual-studio-2013/ayybcxe5(v=vs.120)) and [Generalized Type Conversion](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/previous-versions/visualstudio/visual-studio-2013/yy580hbd(v=vs.120)).

Both lead to an outdated page. At least the pink banner tries to tell me that.

After clicking on the "Recommended Version" button I ended up on the [Visual Studio product family documentation](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/visualstudio/?view=vs-2022).

Maybe you should take a look into these recommendations. ;)
