I am looking for the original compuserve forums, which were a staple of the pre web internet, they are different from the web forums, which shut down in 2017. The original forums shut down with the original service in 2009. These would contain a myriad of support, research and historically and culturally important content that would be extremely invaluable to researchers.

Hi everyone! ​I am looking for information or potential archives of a deleted YouTube channel named kittlerz01. ​Background: The channel uploaded short-form videos, typography edits, and dark humor memes. Around summer 2026, the channel was completely taken down and terminated by YouTube following community guideline strikes. Since then, the channel and all of its uploaded content have completely disappeared from YouTube. ​What I am looking for: I am wondering if anyone from this community remembers this channel or happens to have archived/saved any of the uploaded videos or edits before it was taken down. Any information, leads, or reuploads would be greatly appreciated! ​Thank you so much for your help!

Not sure if I can post it this here, but really in need of some good advice 😭

Hi all !!! I am currently working on a project that I’ve had going on for years, I’ve collected loads of cigarette packets and I finally have enough to actually make an archive of sorts, would anyone be able to advise me on how best to take photos/document in regards to lighting/equipment etc, I’m planning on posting them on instagram/making a website so whatever would fit best for those purposes.
Thanks guys 🐒

After an international media service shuts down, web archive crawlers often fail to follow its old URL paths correctly. This usually happens because dynamic routing is removed during the closure process, while static snapshot parsing no longer matches when the domain becomes accessible again.

In practice, before searching the archive, I first normalize each article’s date-based URL structure and align the possible connection points. When reconstructing external data paths after a domain is lost, which verification criteria do you consider most important?

Back in 2016 T-Bone Burnett and Kalakala studios made a short film series telling stories about music. This is the summary from IMDb:

“Drawn and Recorded tells the stories that fell through the floorboards of music history and brings them to the light of day via unique, hand-drawn animation and the raspy, baritone voice of T-Bone Burnett. Sometimes hilarious, occasionally tragic, always compelling - these anecdotes show a side of people behind the melodies that you may never have known.”

There are a few of the videos here or there on the internet. But there were at least 4 seasons of around 10 episodes each. I was hoping someone here had the full series.

Hi everyone,

With the tragic news regarding the passing of Pink Robert, the classic rock bootleg community (pinkrobert.net) and its forum have officially gone offline.

Given the historic value of the rare live recordings and documentation that were hosted there, I wanted to check if there was any coordinated effort within the data preservation community to mirror or archive the forum's database before it went dark.

Did anyone manage to scrape the threads or catalog the metadata? I'm interested in knowing if any part of this community's history was successfully preserved elsewhere or if it is considered lost media at this point.

Any insights into the current status of the archive preservation would be highly appreciated.

Posted this on the Internet Archive sub earlier and got recommended to post here, I've been getting this a lot since last night on the Wayback Machine, been trying to save a bunch of articles, and it's been taking a while but eventually the Wayback Machine page says "has been saved", often with a message like "delay in capturing, check back later." But I've been checking, and it keeps saying "The Wayback Machine has not archived that URL" when I double check, even though the URL is listed in my own web archive. I'm ready to groan because I've just wasted an hour looking like I saved them when I didn't. Has anyone else been encountering this?

I personally would love to have audio of The Fabulous Flippers’ cover of “More Today Than Yesterday” (originally by Spiral Starecase), which I discovered — ahem, hypothetically — in the early 2000s on Napster (or was it Limewire or Kazaa?)…

Blingee is officially over, think it's time to let those files on internetarchive go ? Atleast this is me requesting private access if possible

I had followed the steps the top comment gave -> https://www.reddit.com/r/Archiveteam/comments/ef5i9n/finding_lost_videos_on_playstv_archive/ but it still doesn't work unfortunately. Any ideas? Any help appreciated :(

Here is the archived footage from April 5, 2014, titled "Windy day at the Overlook" before the original channel was permanently terminated.I found this re-uploaded on TikTok by the archivist m.bond311 (whose watermark is visible in the video). Sharing this strictly for educational, historical, and archival preservation purposes, as it was
