gone from Wayback machine?

S195427 ๐Ÿšซ

The Wayback Machine had most of my ASSTR stories (name "Sterling") available for several years, but now it says that my collection has been removed from the archive. Does anyone know if this is just me, or part of a broader pattern, or more generally what might have happened?

I'm just guessing, but If the Wayback Machine is purging stories, it might have something to do with this:

I'd be surprised if that verdict was relevant to this case, that case was about commercially available books and AssTr did not qualify on that front.
I'll PM you a link where those stories can also be found (a mirror site).

Edit: The "you" was the OP, not Dominion Descendant.

If you try different dates for the archive you often get very different results.

Nope. You don't get as far as the date selection interface. That's for all the urls on that site I've tried recently. I get this:

Sorry.
This URL has been excluded from the Wayback Machine

I don't know why, but I suspect they got some censorship pressure.

They deliberately removed the Loliwood stories. they move have moved on eventually. I do not sometimes I can find missing items later.

Could you post the search terms and time frame that you are searching on Wayback, please. I'm in Canada, so I can at least confirm if it's a site wide deletion or just a block on your end.
