September 2021
Hello, I'm Meters. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, FreeType, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so. You can have a look at referencing for beginners. If you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Neither of the cited sources mentions him Meters (talk) 03:15, 1 September 2021 (UTC)

Web Archive/ WP:LINKROT discussions
Hi Rlink2, congrats you might be the first/earliest adopter of ghostarchive.org anywhere on Wikipedia. I made some instructions for using it as there are a few procedures that should be done to ensure the links stick: Help:Archiving_a_source .. without a they may get deleted. Also good form to add  at the end of the URL. This is a cool looking archive, we have 100s of thousands of YouTube URLs alone needing saving. -- Green  C  20:06, 22 September 2021 (UTC)


 * Ah see that you already encountered this problem today . The solution is to keep the bot off the citation.  IABot is aware of it and may add a pass but when that happens is unclear. I think the other 60 or so added will need cbignore  also. Example. --  Green  C  20:14, 22 September 2021 (UTC)
 * Was also a problem with my bot here (line 89). I've added a filter so it will recognize it as a valid archive URL. -- Green  C  20:20, 22 September 2021 (UTC)


 * Thanks. This is good advice in the archiving web sources. With the way things are going with webcitation, archive.today captchas and dns drama, and youtube unlisting videos, i think its a nice alternative addition for people that like it. I have tipped off cyberpower678 via Phabricator, so I will wait for his word. A proper timemap support like Archive.org should be coming per ghostarchive's Tumblr page. I will use the url query parameter from here on out for now. Rlink2 (talk) 20:45, 22 September 2021 (UTC)
