http://www.co.summit.oh.us/ now goes to https://www.eyemg.com/, the website of some web design firm. The correct address appears to be https://co.summitoh.net/. The link is used on Summit County, Ohio as well as a number of related articles. RTao ( talk) 04:56, 30 August 2022 (UTC)
Not a direct request, but thought people here would be interested in User:FABLEBot/New URLs for permanently dead external links * Pppery * it has begun... 20:53, 31 August 2022 (UTC)
Lexico.com, formerly at oxforddictionaries.com (and askoxford.com before that), has been redirected to Dictionary.com, which does not provide the content that was available on Lexico, so citations need to be replaced with archives. Not sure what to do with {{ Cite Lexico}}, but I assume subst'ing the transclusions and adding archive links is the way to go. Nardog ( talk) 02:16, 26 August 2022 (UTC)

a standardized format that regular tools can maintain without custom coding. For the rest, I think all three should be processed as dead. If no archive exists add a {{

|access-date=
: I didn't transfer because I don't think it's important once the link is dead and archived. Some might disagree but I think it's a tradeoff with clutter and ease of reading comprehension.|url=
: The {{
OxfordDictionaries.com}}
was producing lexico.com and that's what the conversion did 1:1.|dictionary=
Lexico
. I wrote code to use |dictionary=
Oxford Dictionaries
if the access-date is older than 2019-06-11 mirroring how the template worked, as you see in the above intermediary step. There was another bit of code, after the archive URL was finally settled on, that looked at the snapshot date of the archive and if it was later than 2019-06-11 the name was changed to Lexico. As it should be since both the url the archive URL is Lexico, not Oxford.|access-date=
, |url=
and |dictionary=
. I'll need to understand when to use the two variations of oxforddictionaries.com you listed above (ie. www vs. en) . And which one's to do this for: only those with an old access-date, or anything that uses a template name of "Oxford Dictionaries": {{
OxfordDictionaries.com}}
, {{

, {{
Cite Oxford Dictionaries}}
, or anything with old access-date and the Oxford name.. there are a number of permutations and assumptions here. --

C 04:19, 5 September 2022 (UTC)The "www.iihf.com/competition" URL is dead. Many of these references can no longer be recovered. However, there are two exceptions:
These can be recovered under a new name:
Put any number from 1 to 999 there. I hope this can be done. Thanks, Maiō T. ( talk) 17:15, 18 June 2022 (UTC)
For URL www.iihf.com/competition/609/ it can convert to either one:
I think webarchive is best first choice since it has a header and looks like the intended page. It has to be verified though as sometimes it works for one both or neither. -- Green C 17:55, 16 July 2022 (UTC)
@ GreenC: Thank you, I almost forgot about this request. I only remembered it today when I needed to write a new one. Sorry about that. I checked here regularly for the first month to see if you had replied. Were there any problems with it? Maiō T. ( talk) 15:46, 11 September 2022 (UTC)
Hello
I noticed that this link to 2012 Guyana census downloads a broken archive:
It should be repalced by this one:
(notice the capital B in "Population_By_Village")
I think it is present on most Guyana settlements pages (and maybe some other articles about Guyana), but I wasn't able to make a list.

I would need to fix URLs with .asp extension. References in several articles no longer display these pages. For example,
https://www.eurobasket.com/United-Kingdom/basketball-National-Team.asp?Age=16 is wrong, and
https://www.eurobasket.com/United-Kingdom/basketball-National-Team.aspx?Age=16 is correct. Interestingly, both versions (asp & aspx) work on non-European sites. Thank you for your efforts.

As of last week, it seems that Emporis has been shut down, and all of its links have gone dead. Every single link to the website now leads to an error page that looks like this. I'm not sure how many articles are affected by Emporis's shutdown, but I believe this issue affects thousands of links. – Epicgenius ( talk) 13:57, 20 September 2022 (UTC)
