Is there a template to cite or source the now defunct Star Wars: Message boards that links through archive.org? eg. http://forums.starwars.com/thread.jspa?threadID=222689&start=1575 Jartka'irn 07:16, June 4, 2012 (UTC)
- {{Cite_web}} is great for this, as it has a parameter specifically for archive.org. Check out ref [4] here for an example. Menkooroo 04:43, June 8, 2012 (UTC)
- Actually, we have an official archive of all the threads that were being linked from here at the time of the shutdown, thanks to Tm_T. Just the main page text, verbatim. Every page is an exact copy, so they look funny because they're trying to call scripts that don't exist anymore, but it's more up-to-date than archive.org because it's a snapshot from just a few days before the shutdown. So making a separate template for it might not be a bad idea. -- Darth Culator (Talk) 05:16, June 8, 2012 (UTC)
