Oldest archive

[edit]

Found an archive dated October 2, 1995. Not sure if this is commonplace or an error, but isn't this the oldest archived page and one to replace the May 10, 1996 archive under History?

Found older archives on this site dating to 8 May 1995, a year before the May 10, 1996 archive listed here.

The 1996 origin date is evidently not accurate and original research. Updated: Special:Diff/1280168025/1281180362 -- GreenC 20:10, 18 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I have seen others. Should there be a list article?

If you can't get independent third-party sources discussing websites excluded by Wayback Machine, then it is not noteworthy. Also, these questions belong to the WP:Reference desk. (CC) Tbhotch(tm) 21:28, 18 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]
