emijrp says: "I want to make a proposal about external links preservation. Many times,
when you check an external link or a link reference, the website is dead or offline. This websites are important, because they are the sources for the facts showed in the articles. Internet Archive searches for interesting websites to save in their hard disks, so, we can send them our external links sql tables (all projects and languages of course). They improve their database and we always have a copy of the sources text to check when needed." I would want to see the Internet Archive behave in a more ethically accountable manner before any strong alliance is built with them on any Wikimedia function. Namely, for the past 3 months, I have been working with an attorney to appeal to the Internet Archive to remove a page from their database that contains libelous information that has been expunged on the "current" page on the original domain. The Internet Archive has been entirely unresponsive to these mailed letters of request. I think the Wikimedia Foundation shouldn't be lining up to cooperated with organizations that don't even respond to important matters of defamation and libel.
