We Can't Find It!

That page or website has moved or shut down!

You've clicked on a link to a web page or website that we can't find! We check our links periodically and often find that links are broken because a website has closed or a page has disappeared or been put behind a fee barrier. It would be easy to just remove these broken links, which we do on many pages, but you've just visited a page that we consider a historical document. Given that we archive news stories about events and protests, links will go bad when somebody takes down a temporary website or a newspaper hides a story behind in an archive that requires money to access. We leave the links on these pages so researchers can discover what was written about an event. If they want to find an article, they can go to the website that is indicated, if it still exists.

It's a real shame that for-profit newspaper and news websites hide their old content behind fee barriers. This is contrary to the open-linking philosophy of the Internet and it drastically reduces potential traffic to the website. Libraries have provided free access to old newspapers for a long time; it's time that news sites stop moving content around.

If you run an activist website that is going to be discontinued because the event is over or because you can't afford to keep it up, please consider having your website archived by your friendly anarchist librarian. Send the content from your website to us on a floppy disk or CD-ROM and we'll see that it gets archived for posterity.
