The website findarticles died in 2012 causing over 20 000 articles to have dead links on
them. A few of them was backed up on Wayback, but their robot.txt changed so all those
archives were deleted as well. So either articles have a dead link showing as 200 (which
findlinks.com does) or they are claiming to be archived while they are not.

Can we use a bot to remove all instances of this link, or should we go through them all
manually? Can we use bots such as CItation bot (which is currently blocked) to find
doi's and other links to replace these links with? Ideas people! Barely any of these
links are tagged as dead, and can't by Checklinks (unless done manually) since they
show as 200.
