I wonder if that article had anything of value to the wiki even when the site it describes was active.

Hey, folks? The Regretsy site simply now redirects to the webpage of April Winchell.

The site was notable enough to have a book published based on it,
and it did have some degree of cultural impact. We have pages for sites like Not Always Right, so I don't see too much of a difference there.
Total posts: 5
So first I went to Regretsy. Then I tried to click a few of the outbound links. Then I discovered that they all redirect back to April Winchell.com now.
Turns out the site closed a couple years ago, and apparently at some point since then she must have decided to take it down. Web.archive.org doesn't have it because apparently the site's robots.txt blocked their crawler. Is there any point having a trope page for a site that can no longer be viewed, or should we just comb out all the outbound links to it?
