I don't know. No one's created one yet?
Jawbreakers on sale for 99¢I'd like a mod here, because there definitely should be a thread like that.
Join the Five-Man Band cleanup project!Fan Vid has a lot of dead video links in the examples section. Should it even have an examples section? AMV's get deleted all the time. Even the trope image was delete and had to be reuploaded.
Should this become the perpetual broken link cleanup thread?
Join the Five-Man Band cleanup project!Isn't it already?
Jawbreakers on sale for 99¢If so, it should last for years and get new posts regularly like other perpetual cleanup threads. (Instead of being dead for years).

Join the Five-Man Band cleanup project!There might simply not be enough regular interest.
That said, I'm here because I'm planning on updating the contents of X Minus One and Dimension X as part of my Isaac Asimov project. However, I'm concerned about linking directly to the Internet Archive. The list on http://www.xminusone.com is a dead link, and I'm not sure that the Internet Archive uploads are Fair Use. What should I do? Link to TRS threads in project mode here.
YMMV.Blue Wish Resurrection has a lot of broken links to youtube that need fixing.
Keeper of The Celestial FlameMe again. This time, anyone familiar with the webcomic Thog Infinitron? I need to know to fix links that are to the old drunkduck site (now theduckwebcomics), to the new one. I'm posting this in the webcomic forum as well.
Keeper of The Celestial FlameThere's a dead link on Yu Gi Oh The Abridged Series S 4 E 2 Puzzled Shipping regarding the University of Phoenix.
Deleted it as it didn't seem important for the example.
Currently mostly inactive. An incremental game I tested: https://galaxy.click/play/176 (Gods of Incremental)The following citation in this example from The Invention of Lying has a dead-link:
- Unfortunate Implications: This Bad Romance podcast has Jourdain and Kyle bring up that the film's premise of taking place in a world where no one has lied before results in rather unpleasant insinuations, such as being honest about who you want to be with equates being pro-eugenics and that convincing a suicidal person that life is worth living is a fabrication.
TearJerker.Mass Effect 3 has this:
- Hell, all of Emily Wong's tweets. Poor girl is live blogging the REAPER APOCALYPSE. Worse, in the end she goes kamikaze on a Reaper! 3/5/2012 10:46 PM EST: <SIGNAL LOST>. Masterfully brought to life here.
The link leads to a now deleted SoundCloud post. I searched around and found this on YouTube, but I have no idea if it's the same thing the example is talking about.

Single-word wicks need {{curly braces}} around them to link properly.
Funny.{{Aladdin}} = Funny.Aladdin
Trivia.{{Nephilim}} = Trivia.Nephilim
HoYay.Bakugan The video is unavailiable due to termination of associated account.
It needs to be rewritten anyway. Web Links Are Not Examples.
Current Project: The TeamStrawberry Death Cake — Every trope which isn't a ZCE, is a weblink.
Which could have worked... but unfortunately the website hosting the comic is DEAD.
Then maybe we should cutlist it.
"Listen up, Marina, because this is SUPER important. Whatever you do, don't eat th“ “DON'T EAT WHAT?! Your text box ran out of space!”HoYay.DN Angel - in the Les Yay part at the very bottom, the second link (to the absoluteanime site) gets error 404.
Does somebody know where else the image in question should occur? Or should the link just bite the dust?EDIT: Perhaps it's this one◊?

You didn't answer my question. Why is there no one unified thread, instead of a dozen threads not created by mods that only ever get 3 posts?
