reference on Sexual orientation

[edit]

Consider the following url for the reference to the paper titled "Bisexuality: A contemporary paradox for women":

http://docplayer.net/43268398-Bisexuality-a-contemporary-paradox-for-women.html#show_full_text

hu-berlin.de no longer redirecting to sexarchive.info

[edit]

Several pages having links to hu-berlin.de that had been getting redirected to sexarchive.info. A wikipedia search with the following search term can help to identify these links:

hu-berlin.de AND sexology

This is entirely speculative, but I have some recollection of some "kinsey" site also doing links and using "sexology" in the url (though a quick search has failed to turn this up). Consider also looking for refernces to the International Encyclopedia of Sexuality.

Update: The external links section on International Encyclopedia of Sexuality includes "IES Online" linking to hu-berlin.de and "Continuum Complete Encyclopedia ..." linking to kinseyinstitute.org/ccies/, neither of these links work.

A google search on (site:kinseyinstitute.org "ENCYCLOPEDIA OF SEXUALITY") returns some 70+ hits, at first glance, it looks like these are PDF versions of each chapter. One can argue whether these are to be preferred to sexarchive.info or not.

7daysindubai.com (fixed as of 2018-04-21)

[edit]

The 7daysindubai.com website is offline. Google's most recent cached pages seem to be from around 15 February 2017.

Here are the results of a search of articles as of 2018-03-19:

privateline.com pages are online

[edit]

Previously (in March 2017), it had been reported per http://privateline.com that most web pages from privateline.com should now be accessed through the wayback machine.

This appeared to have been offered as an interim workaround pending a reconstruction of the site in wordpress form, but in fact, it looks like at the time of reporting, much of the site had already been back online. Then again, maybe most stuff didn't come back online until the middle of 2019. I'm not sure, but anyway, a cursory review makes it seem that all (or at least most) of the pages are online now, and were probably online as of mid-2019.

armytimes.com excluded from wayback machine as of 2017-03-20

[edit]

Most articles on armytimes.com are removed within a fairly short period of time (TBD). An exception is articles in the /news/your-army directory.

Exacerbating this is that armytimes.com is now "excluded" by the Wayback machine (this is evidently by "direct site request".)

The original issue involved "http://www.armytimes.com/story/military/pentagon/2015/06/09/military-equal-opportunity-sexual-orientation-transgender/28740207/" referenced on Sexual orientation and gender identity in the United States military.

I would have hoped that this had been archived in archive.is, but it was not. However, the following page (note the similarity of the url) is live and there are several copies in the Wayback machine:

http://www.militarytimes.com/story/military/pentagon/2015/06/09/military-equal-opportunity-sexual-orientation-transgender/28740207/

A wikipedia search of armytimes.com has 162 hits.

However, availability of armytimes.com pages on militarytimes.com is quite limited.

For instance, on XM806, there is a link to http://www.armytimes.com/news/2009/04/army_light_50cal_042709w/, which returns a 404. Changing to militarytimes.com also returns a 404. Did not find anything in the wayback machine, but was able to find it on archive.is: http://archive.is/http://www.armytimes.com/news/2009/04/army_light_50cal_042709w/

[edit]

List of disability-related terms with negative connotations has a reference to http://www.asha.org/publications/journals/submissions/person_first.htm.

People-first language has a reference to the following archived copy:

https://web.archive.org/web/20150511071056/http://www.asha.org/publications/journals/submissions/person_first.htm

I contacted asha.org using their contact form on 2017-03-31 asking them about this broken link. Here is the response:

The page you are looking for is unfortunately no longer available. More streamlined information regarding bias in language when reporting research can be found on the ASHA Journals Academy Manuscript Submission page. In general, we adhere to the APA Style Guide (Sixth Edition) for guidelines on person-first and bias-free language. A link to the APA Style blog is provided in the Quick Resources box of the previously linked page.

So evidently, from the perspective of ASHA, they perceive their page was used exclusively as a style guide for ASHA publication. No matter, since copies of this content are available online.

Nevertheless, Google finds about 270 pages with references to the original url.

Here are some other places this reference is available:

ft.com

[edit]

Gettingft.com links to work for non-subscribers seems to be problematic. When found in a google search, the links will work, but the url of the page that you go to does not work if entered directly. It also looks like wayback links are useless. It would appear that ft.com specifically allows these redirects from google, whether there's some way to achieve that outside of google is yet to be determined.

glbtq.com

[edit]

This website closed on August 1, 2015, but its contents have been preserved on glbtqarchive.com. It appears that everything is converted to PDF, but there's evidently no direct mapping to the PDF path names.

moga.mo.gov

[edit]

2017-04-17: Links to Missouri statutes in the form www.moga.mo.gov/statutes/c500-599/5660000034.htm do not get properly redirected. They can be put in the form www.moga.mo.gov/mostatutes/stathtml/56600000341.html. Using a search string of insource:www.moga.mo.gov/statutes currently finds 84 matches.

2018-03-18: There's been yet another change to the Missouri statute links. Both forms of the urls shown above are now redirecting to revisor.mo.gov/main/Home.aspx, which is the main page of the Revisor of Statutes web site. In the new form, the url for section 566.034 would be revisor.mo.gov/main/OneSection.aspx?section=566.034, though the pages indicates that the appropriate url to use is revisor.mo.gov/main/PageSelect.aspx?section=566.034.

bad redirects for worldnews.nbcnews.com

[edit]

As of 24 May 2017, some urls for worldnews.nbcnews.com were redirecting incorrectly. Here's an example of a url which erroneously redirects, through newsvine.com, to msnbcvvd.nbcnews.com:

This link is redirecting to:

It should instead be redirecting to:

dukechronicle.com path change

[edit]

Paths have changed for historical articles to include year and month. Google searches do not seem to find the article directly; instead, the page is found as part of a page of dukechronicle.com search results.

Following pages appear likely to be affected:

While the following pages have links to urls with domain media.www.dukechronicle.com, which can usually be resolved by doing a "title" search on dukechronicle.com, I notice that some of them can be found on the wayback machine at the original "media" url, and this may provide a nicer presentation. For instance, compare archived "Secret Societies" story to the live version of the same story. Solution would be to include the live url and the archived url, but specify "deadurl=unfit" to force the archived version to be displayed. Can we include a "prefer archived version" comment in the "cite" template to help to reduce the likelihood that someone would remove the "unfit" parameter?

iom.edu domain change and missing files

[edit]

What a mess!

The iom.edu domain is no more, even though a google search returns about 150 hits.

When using archive.org, everything on iom.edu/localpath gets redirected to www.nationalacademies.org/hmd/localpath, but often the new url is a 404. Additionally, the redirect effectively prevents access to the archived copies. Eccccch!

As of 2018-08-01, redirects are no longer causing a problem for wayback links.

unep.org

[edit]

The domain is still with us, but most urls don't seem to be working. Mostly available through archive.is, which in most cases can be used to find "live" sites that host the content, if that is desired. And of course, archive.org is also likely to have archives.

Many or most of these links have been rescued, but there are exceptions.

Here are identified issues:

  • Kabul: Kabul wetland declared new protected area for migrating birds (fixed; rescued perm dead link)

phpwebhosting.com (fixed as of 2017-07-21)

[edit]

There are a handful of subdomains of this web hosting service referenced in Wikipedia which are now dead. Among these are:

ah.phpwebhosting.com moved to buffaloah.com (fixed as of 2017-07-20)

[edit]

The following pages are affected:

guilfordnative.org (fixed as of 2017-07-20)

[edit]

The Guilford Native American Assocation web site, guilfordnative.org, is now dead. The only page referencing this is Guilford Native American Association.

www.pewtrusts.org site reorg

[edit]

About 30 articles (evidently all PDFs) have been moved to new urls, with no well-defined mapping. The affected references in wikipedia can be found with a search on "insource:wwwpewtrustsorg". The search available on the pewtrusts.org web site seems to be generally useless. A gooogle search of "site:pewtrusts.org" along with words from the page title seems to work pretty well at finding the new url.

ecfr.gpoaccess.gov changed to ecfr.gov

[edit]

The only change required is the domain. This affects approximately 400 pages. There is also one page with ecfr.gpo.gov which should be updated to ecfr.gov.

ftp.geostor.arkansas.gov moved to geostor-imagery.geostor.org.s3.amazonaws.com

[edit]

There are about 20 pages with links to ftp.geostor.arkansas.gov, which have been moved to Amazon Web Services. For instance, ftp://ftp.geostor.arkansas.gov/geostor_raster_02/AHTD_MAP_SERIES/HISTORIC/Pope_County/mpope_1964_townships.pdf becomes http://geostor-imagery.geostor.org.s3.amazonaws.com/Maps/AHTD/HISTORIC/Pope_County/mpope_1964_townships.pdf.

To find the mapping, navigate to a page with the appropriate links starting from http://geostor-imagery.geostor.org.s3.amazonaws.com/index.html.

transportation.org documents moved

[edit]

Documents under http://cms.transportation.org/sites/route/docs/ have been moved to http://sp.route.transportation.org/Documents/.

This affects about 30 wikipedia articles.

wwwcf.fhwa.dot.gov domain change

[edit]

Documents in domain wwwcf.fhwa.dot.gov are now under domain www.fhwa.dot.gov. There are about 40 wikipedia articles affected.

rotaryfirst100.org content moved to rghfhome.org

[edit]

The site rotaryfirst100.org has been usurped, and though it retains a large amount of the Rotary-related content, is isn't under control of Rotary members and the pages are "polluted" with unrelated content.

In some articles, "wayback" links are included, but it seems that a site owner can introduce redirect links potentially creating problems with pre-existing archived copies, so there's value in replacing the "rotaryfirst100" links with links to current content.

It appears that all or most of the content is hosted at www.rghfhome.org. Please do a search to find the right url.

restricted access to oxfordstudent.com

[edit]

The site oxfordstudent.com returns a "403 Forbidden" error from the general internet, or at least, from my ISP in the U.S. Although google has cached pages for this site, those pages seems to contain links to unrelated content, and they are not even usable. However, archived copies from the Wayback machine and from archive.is are fine.

The site administrators have confirmed that outside access is temporarily being blocked as of 2018-04-16 and expect this to be resolved in a few days. (Problem was resolved as of 2018-05-02.)

There are some instances where deadurl=yes has been specified due to this problem. These should be changed to specify deadurl=no.

christianpost.com pages display as blank

[edit]

This section has been moved to User:Fabrickator/christianpost pages display as blank.

gc.bebif.be moved to www.gracillariidae.net

[edit]

The Global Taxonomic Database of Gracillariidae has moved from gc.bebif.be to its own domain www.gracillariidae.net.

Although about 40 Wikipedia pages point to the new domain, there are over 1600 affected pages that reference the old domain. When editing these pages, the local part of the url also needs to be changed. For instance, 

http://gc.bebif.be/species/show/1995

could be changed to either: 

http://www.gracillariidae.net/species/show/2066

or 

http://www.gracillariidae.net/species_by_code/PHODDOLI

The latter is intended to do a redirect to the page which matches on the first 4 characters of the genus and the first 4 characters of the species

generic page displayed for diarioperfil.com.ar

[edit]

The diarioperfil.com.ar domain is essentially non-functional. In some cases, pages may be found on http://www.perfil.com, but have not yet determined whether or not this is commonly the case. There are about 40 affected pages.

citizenlink.org redirecting to unrelated familypolicyalliance.com page

[edit]

About 35 public pages (including at least one template) include links to citizenlink.org or citizenlink.com, which redirect to a generic familypolicyalliance.com page. A fair number of them already have archive links.

"over time" misspelled as "overtime"

[edit]

This section has been moved to User:Fabrickator/"over time" misspelled as "overtime"

rferl.org path change

[edit]

Radio Free Europe has moved a bunch of content around.

At the moment, there are 1936 articles referencing urls in the form www.rferl.org/content/*.

These seem to have been moved to something under www.rferl.org/a/.

cert.org path change

[edit]

Carnegie Mellon Software Engineering Institute's cert.org site has undergone some changes. Though the home page on cert.org and www.cert.org will redirect to www.sei.cmu.edu, the "advisories" directory remains available, but unfortunately, the content of the pages has been changed, and not in a good way.

One example of this is http://www.cert.org/advisories/CA-2001-13.html. The preferred url to replace this is https://www.kb.cert.org/vuls/id/952336 ... this is suggested because it actually contains relevant content whereas http://www.cert.org/advisories/CA-2001-13.html will force you to take additional steps to find the relevant content!

An alternative approach would be to specify an archived url and indicate the uselessness of the live url with deadurl=unfit.

dailyprincetonian.com path update

[edit]

Older articles in the dailyprincetonian.com domain which have paths including "yyyy/mm/dd" are no longer recognized.

There are some 350 articles with this domain, but most of them seem to already have archive links.

Live pages can be found by using the "search" field on http://dailyprincetonian.com. These live pages are notably missing both date and author.

www.reagan.utexas.edu moved to www.reaganlibrary.gov

[edit]

For example: http://www.reagan.utexas.edu/archives/speeches/1986/12886b.htm has been moved to https://www.reaganlibrary.gov/research/speeches/12886b . Currently, 424 hits.

lrc.ky.gov moved to legislature.ky.gov

[edit]

Urls using the old host get redirected to the home page of legislature.ky.gov, which prevents auto-detection by Wikipedia and google (i.e. google continues to index these redirected urls).

Generally speaking, things have not been so much re-organized as they have just had the intermediate directory levels changed.

Just for reference, note that the home page for the directory of statutes has been moved from http://www.lrc.ky.gov/Statutes/index.aspx to https://apps.legislature.ky.gov/law/statutes/.

As of May 2, 2019, there are 357 hits on insource:"lrc.ky.gov".

osce.org path update

[edit]

Pages in osce.org under the "documents" directory have been moved. As of May 20, 2019, there are 124 hits on insource:"osce.org/documents".

shodhganga.inflibnet.ac.in changed to sg.inflibnet.ac.in

[edit]

About 800 pages are affected by this change.

[edit]

Pages formerly accessible through the "archive.gulfnews.com" domain can be located using the search page at https://gulfnews.com/search ... suggested search argument is the article title. Note you just type or paste in the text, it will search automatically without pressing enter.

Approximately 200 articles are affected.

english.aljazeera.net moved to aljazeera.com

[edit]

Accessing pages on english.aljazeera.net will redirect to aljazeera.com but discards local part of url, making this unfit. Simply changing the domain from "english.aljazeera.net" to "aljazeera.com" displays okay, but it seems that fairly often, a portion of the article text gets dropped. Therefore, using an archive copy is preferable. Fabrickator (talk) 08:52, 4 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

heritagewnc.org usurped (resolved)

[edit]

Donmain heritagewnc.org has been usurped. About 16 articles are affected.

The "Heritage of Western North Carolina" was site had been maintained by "Special Collections" group at University of North Carolina at Asheville. The domain was usurped sometime after 16 November 2012.

As of 3/1/2021, all references to heritagewnc.org have been resolved to archived copies.

[edit]

Per 10 June 2020 IAbot edit:

sources requested for Ron Popeil

[edit]

citations requested per these recent edits of Ron Popeil:

Other notes:

  • Weird Al evidently stated that the song Mr. Popeil was about Ron's father, Samuel, apparently under the impression that Samuel was responsible for the first TV commercials promoting products such as the Veg-O-Matic. He seems to have made this assumption based on "Ronco" having been formed at a later date, but Ron had been doing such TV commercials prior to the formation of Ronco.

References

questionable source for Pictet Group

[edit]

See 13:35, 30 June 2015 revision of Pictet Group citing "Pictet Group Historical Archives, ref. AHP 1.1.7.1". The best candidate I could find for this citation was a document titled "The Pictet Model" as a PDF named Pictet-model-Witten-study-201907-EN.pdf on the Group Pictet website, attributed to the Witten Institute for Family Business (Wittener Institut für Familienunternehmen) of Witten/Herdecke University. Best guess as to "AHP" is that it is a reference to "Pictet Historical Archives", the title of the page that contains the link to the PDF.

Some more details about the content of the PDF:

  • Subtitled "A company that continuously reinvents its family ownership"
  • Described as "A case study by Torsten Groth and Fritz B. Simon" (Fourth Edition, July 2019)
  • Originally published in 2005 in Mehr-Generationen-­Familienunter­nehmen (Multi-generation family business)

Torsten Groth is cited on Brandstätter Group as well as various articles on German Wikipedia. Fabrickator (talk) 20:24, 22 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
