📚 First publication from CiVers!
🤔 How can we reliably cite resources of web-based research databases in archaeology and the humanities?
💡 In our new article, we present the CiVers approach: creating versioned, citable web resources using Persistent Identifiers (PIDs).

Yesterday, my website celebrated its 28th birthday!
Thanks to the web archive, it is nearly live!
Warning: Be cautious if you are going to the person's French side.

📢 Hello Mastodon! 👋
We’re CiVers Citation of Versioned Web Pages by Persistent Identifier
Web pages change. Links rot. Academic references break. We’re fixing that. 🛠️
💻 CiVers develops software and methodologies to make web content reliably citable with PIDs and versioning

Google’s shortened goo.gl links will stop working next month

I cannot say if it is a trusted source. Here, they say that 3.6 billion URLs have been shortened. https://dub.co/blog/googl-links
A single small server could have served as an HTTP redirector, for lifetime.
Nice job, Google!
#webarchiving
does anyone have suggestions for making an archive of a site like this where the links to the actual pages are all dynamically generated/rendered by JS and thus there is no easy way to just scrape the page links from the homepage html?
wget can't do it and archiveweb.page can kinda do it, insofar as it can view/capture the page, but reloading the page just gives you a "loading" image, just like...
