Hmmm... a few days ago we didn't have any problems to retrieve history (2001-2011) of Main Pages of Polish Wikipedia: http://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.10150309409533189.363981.1470564731...
- similar should be with other versions :>
It is possible to: * Retrieve time history of the very early Wikipedia (~2001), as there were no robots.txt. * Retrieve snapshot of a page when Internet Archive made it.
It is not possible to click on "history" of the page and find the first version of the page, as it's forbidden by robots.txt.
That's important for the sites created in period 2002-2004, as Internet Archive has snapshots, while we don't have versions (.../index.php?oldid=1 doesn't work for those sites or if it works, timestamp is broken (doesn't exist)).
