I have noticed that a lot of these sites do not exist anymore. Can archives of them be added, or at least a note that they don't exist anymore?  GX_64 (talk)  01:39, 5 July 2022 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Unfortunately, the NOA site for Splatoon is missing quite a lot in the Wayback Machine. The Overview part is completely broken, and lots of images are missing elsewhere. I will continue to try and see if I can find anything better. I will have a look to see if any of the other websites are any better.  GX_64 (talk)  01:55, 5 July 2022 (UTC)Reply[reply]
Here are the waybacks for Australia that I have on hand:
Might be good for nostaliga's sake at least. Vippy (talk) 02:03, 5 July 2022 (UTC)Reply[reply]
The Splatoon site is a bit broken, I can't access anything except the home page. I like how it has Splattack playing in the background, it might give people wearing headphones a fright though! The Splatoon 2 website seems pretty good. Most of the links are fine, it even still has the Squid Research lab.  GX_64 (talk)  02:42, 5 July 2022 (UTC)Reply[reply]
I'm sorry, I gave you some duds. I rushed it and didn't look though the sites. I can help track down archives when I have more time, perhaps this weekend. I'm kinda thinking that if the archive is very minimal (like for the AU Splatoon site), a screenshot of what is available might make for a faster loading memorial. And Splattack is definitely not my preferred way to discover the work computers have speakers! Vippy (talk) 07:10, 5 July 2022 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Archive sources down/deleted

The archives at the bottom of the page are currently broken (error message "One or more errors have occurred"). Anyone getting the same issue, and if so, should we remove them? I don't see a benefit in striking them out, since they are unofficial links in the first place so there is no point in preservation Sampaioe (talk) 23:13, 1 May 2024 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Archiverse is down. I looked it up, and it seems like it will probably be permanent. I'm not sure what would be the best thing to do with the links. It could be useful to keep them in case Archiverse comes back (or a similar site), maybe they could be made into comments so they are still there, but not visible?  GX_64 (talk)  02:00, 2 May 2024 (UTC)Reply[reply]
I've removed the content and made the links into a comment. Sampaioe (talk) 21:08, 2 May 2024 (UTC)Reply[reply]
