Hi all;

I want to make a proposal about external links preservation. Many times,
when you check an external link or a link reference, the website is dead or
offline. This websites are important, because they are the sources for the
facts showed in the articles. Internet Archive searches for interesting
websites to save in their hard disks, so, we can send them our external
links sql tables (all projects and languages of course). They improve their
database and we always have a copy of the sources text to check when needed.

I think that this can be a cool partnership.

Regards,
emijrp
