Yes, what is the purpose? To provide a working *link*, or to provide a *description* of something that may or may not exist, as a starting point for research? If you know something once existed, you can do your own spelunking at archive.org ... the fact something disappears so easily suggesting that it wasn't in high demand.
There are 15 remaining items. None of them are from *tiddlyspot*. The problem with automating detection is that only the sites with 404 errors return crystal clear messages. Others time out, which might be a local connectivity problem. Others put you on a master host site, others put you on a "domain-for-sale" site. And then others exist, but the tiddler content is gone. So the author moved it some place else or tired of the project. I'm thinking of just posting the remaining ones as they are, possibly with tag "badurl", and the community can provide information as they are discovered or sought for. The framing on archive.org apparently breaks the JS, so maybe posting those addresses isn't all that helpful anyways.
