Heise just took down the H Online archive (the English-language
version of Heise.de, a computer news site). This has broken a *huge*
pile of reference links.
[{Special:LinkSearch]] only shows links in the wikitext - not links
inside reference citation templates.
https://www.google.co.uk/search?q=site:en.wikipedia.org+link:h-online.com
shows hundreds of links. Argh.
What I need to do is (a) find all the links (b) add archiveurl=
(something on archive.org, which seems to have captured the whole
site) and archivedate= .
Are there tools that do any of this job?
- d.
I ran across this today, though it's a few years old. The Wikipedia article
doesn't seem to have ever been fixed.
Also a good example of how web sources sometimes do better research than
acceptable Wikipedia sources.
