I believe the typical policy is that you may remove your own recommendations, but if other people had added their names to the Recommended by tab, you should just remove your own handle from that particular rec. Although if the only reason you want to remove the entry is because it's no longer available on AO 3, be sure that it's not accessible in other sites as well.

Are AO3 fics archived on the Wayback Machine? Because you could swap in the url from it if they are. Also a lot of fanfics get downloaded and circulated by email, so it is always good to leave the rec up, even with the out of date URL, because it helps people track down old fics the hard way if they so desire. I know I've found old pre-even Fanfiction.net fics like that.

I tried and this particular fic wasn't archived.
