::Also, as a word of caution to be ''too'' eager to straight out delete bad links.  In many cases it's the easy thing to do, but there's occasionally some intresting important stuff mentioned in, like say, a "more news in brief" news item.  The items don't exist as such anymore, (meaning they aren't kept on any particular mirror) but the text itself can be fFound on unfiction and other places with just a tiny bit of searching.  While this is unrealistic in all cases, there's probably a fFew news items which might be worth repeating.  (Like fFor example Benjaminbrum's letter t the sentinel, and the fFlurry of responses it gathered.)  There's no rule on what should be looked up, only plain wisdom vs. laziness, whichever wins out.

:::I've found that News in Brief articles are still listed in full on the archive page.

Link Fixing

Probably still more wiki.incognitus.net/mirror/ppc/www.perplexcitysentinel.com/##.##.## links to be dealt with. They don't seem to die, really. But I think the huge bulk of links have been updated. If you spot anymore, you know what to do :)


Links to the PXCS article including academy_scott_i.html may need to be checked, they seem to be embedded links in many places. A method of using custom text for S1Wayback template links would be good. I'll look and see if I can edit it into the template. --Edgemaster 12:34, 14 May 2007 (PDT)
