Add Wayback functionality

Created on 19 March 2024, 3 months ago

Problem/Motivation

Sometimes you cannot update a link in a meaningful way. The destination is gone forever.
However archive.org probably has a copy of the destination exactly as it looked like back when you linked to it.

Steps to reproduce

You cannot (in any meaningful or safe way) link to freecenter.com these days. But the archived version, https://web.archive.org/web/20040609015229/http://www.freecenter.com/ , may be worth linking to.

Proposed resolution

Have a look at the Wayback Filter module β†’ . It's rather easy to link to archive.org in a meaningful and automated way. If you have the node created date at hand it's even better.

Remaining tasks

Understand the feature request. Maybe reach out to the maintainer of the Wayback Filter module β†’ to get some additional clues. He's a friendly and nice guy, I've heard.
