Template talk:Dead link

Geoblocked link
Hello is there a "Dead link"-like template for geoblocked links, such as https://itsapkgru.com/the-ultimate-guide-to-pubg-mobile-kr-download-no-1-unleash-the-korean-action/Bouzinac (talk) 09:24, 20 March 2021 (UTC)
 * . It would probably be better if we had some way to indicate this issue in particular, instead of just "limited".  — SMcCandlish ☏ ¢ 😼  22:17, 26 August 2023 (UTC)

Questia -- DL fixes?
Questia is dead. Will this template help if we tag Questia.com links? (If not, should we remove the questia.com urls from the citations?) Thanks. – S. Rich (talk) 01:50, 12 July 2021 (UTC)

Both before and after ?
At one time long ago I remember the documentation for this template suggesting placing it both within the reference and after it, so that the superscript note appeared both in the text and the Reflist. I have tended to do this, but on rechecking note that its use is now recommended only once, within the reference. It seems to me to make sense to be notified in the text that a link is dead, and also in the reference list. Does anyone have any comment on this? Should I change what I have been doing to follow the documentation change?

 * I've been through the entire history of Template:Dead link/doc, and it has never suggested that. The first mention of is in  (June 2008); it gives the option of placing either before or after, but not in both positions.  (November 2008) recommends against putting the tag after the . The position was flipped with  (November 2009) and corrected two hours later in . It was substantially rewritten in  (January 2018), but the position is the same:  goes before . -- Red rose64 &#x1f339; (talk) 20:07, 4 January 2022 (UTC)
 * Many thanks, I'll modify the way I do things. I'm quite sure I saw the recommendation to flag dead links in the way I mentioned somewhere, many years ago (it's not an opinion I formed, though I did agree with it), but that's irrelevant. I have double-tagged a lot of dead links over the years ... (and nobody has ever commented on it). Best wishes, Pol098 (talk) 20:25, 4 January 2022 (UTC)

permanence
If a cited url is both dead and previously unarchived, the template documentation says to use yes. That essentially means that the $[permanent dead link]$ is going to stay appended to that source for all time. Is my understanding of that accurate? —  Fourthords  &#124; =Λ= &#124; 18:52, 22 January 2024 (UTC)
