## Summary

- Fixed a broken link in the "Writing style" section of the company
handbook (`handbook/company/writing.md`)
- The "Mister Rogersing" example link was pointing to the old URL
(`/handbook/company/communications#what-would-mister-rogers-say`) which
no longer exists
- Updated it to the correct URL
(`/handbook/company/writing#what-would-mister-rogers-say`)
