Urgent archiving issue by Hieronymus Graubart on 2016-01-27 11:27:00 UTC Reply

The Catfish Capers Story, Hikari’s contribution to the 2011 Halloween Co-Write, “will be deleted soon”, but if you can login (I can’t) you may still be able to save a copy.

I don’t know whether this is Hikari removing their story and we shouldn’t try to keep it, or whether this is Google cleaning up like Webs and Freewebs do.

For the record, I have the whole Hallo-Write backed up. by doctorlit on 2016-01-27 14:09:00 UTC Reply

So we're good if an individual piece ever goes missing.

Also, HG, I want to say thank you, so much, for all the link-saving work you've been doing recently. I don't have much free time nowadays, and when I do have time to work on archival, I mostly just throw the text into a Word document and don't worry about the Wiki links to save time. So good job on keeping the Wiki up-to-date!

That’s awesome, because Ellipsis Flood’s site is down and I cannot find her Halloween story "Don’t Question the Fog" on archive.is or the wayback machine. One of her missions ("Villainy" with Priyala and Saline) is missing, too.

Also, Makari’s site is down and most of the missions are unavailable. Did you by chance back up these too?

Awe, don’t mention it. I did this mostly to earn the two-weeks-on-the-wiki badge (no, I’m kidding).

Yep! I have both those spin-offs. by doctorlit on 2016-01-28 03:06:00 UTC Reply

I will rehost "Villainy" on my site; shall I send you Makari's for the Lost Tales?

The link is now here.

The full message was:

File is in owner's trash
You will soon permanently lose access to this file.

So it looks like Hikari deleted it.
