We removed that file a while back. The link in the guides should be removed, too. This is a good one for someone who wants a place to get started on contributing to Spring.

When the guides are archived, they are usually moved here to the spring-attic. For this particular issue, you can see where jar to war landed.

In the past I've seen this type of issue addressed in the individual repos. So perhaps opening an issue in the specific repository would get a faster response from the community. If it gets tagged with good first issue those usually go pretty fast. This link isn't even the only broken one on the page, as the gemfire link is also broken for the same reason.

If anyone wants to delete this line about building a WAR file, it would be a PR to the shared repository, specifically this file. It would fix a good number of guides I'm guessing.
