For current (i.e. upcoming) splits, I use briefing[dot]com, split
calendar. For historical data, I simply search on the symbol or
company name looking for news around the time of a pricing
anomaly.
Important functions of a stock data service include keeping a
symbol universe current and adjusting for splits and share
dividends. We need that to have any hope of gleaning useful data
for testing ideas.
