388:? I'd like to look at and probably restore them. I've been frustrated repeatedly by articles containing dead links, and links to content that changed - for example, when someone says something online and then wants to take it back. If you'd rather webcite not be used in such situations (e.g. to document, and archive as evidence, a website's privacy policy and a page on the site that shows that they violate that policy) please let me/your users know. It seems that was not part of the original vision for the tool, but I find it fantastically useful for that purpose. (I'd even be interested in providing support for such use.) I think WebCite (or at least a mention of web archiving tools in general) needs to be mentioned up in the "Citations for world wide web articles" or " Links and ID numbers" sections and I think it's frequently underused and haven't seen it overused.-- 687: 464:" – the WebCite-archived pages were all working fine before the site went down. Have you received reports of anyone else experiencing this problem? If so, is there anything that can be done about it, or is the only solution to re-archive the web pages? I am concerned about this, because obviously the reliability of WebCite (which I think fills a pressing need) is in question if there is an irretrievable loss of archived pages each time a server goes down. — Cheers, 800:
the data dump in detail - is there a file with all links, or would we have to parse them? If so, the task would be more realistic if a volunteer could write a script that extracts all the links and builds a database with the citation elements like cited author name, cited article title, cited URL, citing URL (=citing Knowledge article), perhaps citing article title, citing section within that article etc in columns. --

financial gain, in these areas. An overly strict interpretation of the COI policy may be counterproductive in assuring the accuracy and quality of articles in Knowledge. Most "experts" and scientists working in a narrow field have "indirect" conflicts of interest, because they have done a lot of work in that field, so that any contribution in Knowledge could be misconstrued as self-promotion.

How can we "rearchive" pages whose links are now expired? Preserving those links was what WebCite was supposed to do; now that WebCite has lost them they are apparently gone forever. If we had known this was going to happen, we could have preserved the information in a way that was actually reliable.

I am not sure it makes sense to go back and retrospectively archive these links, as they may have changed since they were first cited. I believe the better strategy might be be to start a WebCitebot and going forward archive all new links prospectively. But, we will look into it. I haven't looked at

So basically my question is 1) should I use the XML method to improve performance on the server or does it not really matter? and 2) if you want me to use the XML method could the server code easily be modified to also return the shorter URL? Regardless of what method you choose, it is more or less

Hi, Eysen. Although WebCite seems to be back online, I was distressed to find that a number of web pages that I archived prior to the site going down for server migration appear to have been lost. See, for instance, the articles
