Removing dead links
Hi, and welcome to Wikipedia. I noticed you removed dead links at 2009–10 WCHA women's ice hockey season. I have reverted your changes, as guidelines state that a non-working link should not be the sole basis for the deletion of a citation. In general, we do not need to (and should not) remove citations just because they contain dead links as the dead links may still be archived somewhere, or may contain useful data for verifying information. Thanks! Wracking 💬 23:27, 10 May 2023 (UTC)


 * I re-reviewed the guideline and it does say that hopelessly dead links can be deleted (which these unfortunately may be). I apologize if I was a bit hasty in my reversion, but I do hope to use some information from those dead links to verify information for WCHA articles. Thanks! Wracking  💬 23:35, 10 May 2023 (UTC)
 * Thanks! I tried to find the articles using the Wayback Machine but wasn't able to, so I assume they do fall under the category of hopelessly dead links. Appreciate the guidance though, I'm pretty new to this. Lin1235 (talk) 00:25, 11 May 2023 (UTC)
 * No worries, and your edits reminded me I wanted to get back to some WCHA articles :] Wracking  💬 03:04, 11 May 2023 (UTC)
