Friday we reported that Google now is showing the Google Place Action rich snippet documentation to all. But some time between when I wrote about it and now, Google has removed the documentation from the web site.

The links to the documentation, which is what we saw on November 25th is still there, but the full content within those pages were removed over the weekend. I am not sure if it is intentional and if it was removed by accident.

Either way, I used the Google Cache to bring up both documents and screen grabbed them to save them. They don't look that great, but you get the idea.

You can click on them to enlarge but I am suspecting them will come back soon, I hope:

Forum discussion continued at Google+.

Update: Several days later, the pages now have returned.
