I wanted to see the beginning of the article about Jupiter.
When I go to Jupiter's revision history and click on oldest, I get here:
https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Jupiter&dir=prev&action=h...
which takes me to the revision as of November 5, 2001:
https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Jupiter&oldid=332461507
Given that the the article at this point doesn't look like this were the original edition, I expect more history to be in the UseMod archives.
I remembered Tim Starling announced a few years ago that he found a few old archives:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Wikipedia%27s_oldest_articles
https://lists.wikimedia.org/pipermail/foundation-l/2010-December/063088.html
Unfortunately, that link has gone stale.
Does anyone know where these archives are?
Cheers, Denny
