- Um, okay. Is that in reference to anything on this page? — HelloAnnyong (say whaaat?!) 21:22, 31 July 2009 (UTC)
- Yes. A link to an archive page containing Bulletin Collection material was listed under Ref #7 for the The Acronym Institute. It may have been done in error; however, I have removed it in the past and the edits were reversed. Just wanted to explain why they were made again. Thanks! —Preceding unsigned comment added by Atomicgurl00 (talk • contribs) 21:28, 31 July 2009 (UTC)
- Which reference on the current article? — HelloAnnyong (say whaaat?!) 21:33, 31 July 2009 (UTC)
- It was included in this reference but has since been removed: "Allegations of Clandestine US Nuclear Weapons in Japan". Disarmament Diplomacy (The Acronym Institute) (42). December 1999. http://www.acronym.org.uk/dd/dd42/42base.htm. Retrieved on 2007-09-13. Atomicgurl00 (talk) 21:35, 31 July 2009 (UTC)
- The link was good at one point; just because it's dead now doesn't really mean much. The main reference is still okay. — HelloAnnyong (say whaaat?!) 21:37, 31 July 2009 (UTC)
- Correct, the main reference is fine and the link to the Acronym Institute is fine. However, the use of this link: http://web.archive.org/web/20050622081837/www.thebulletin.org/article.php?art_ofn=jf00norris as an archive reference is not alright to use. This article is copyrighted material and it is part of the Bulletin's subscription-based content available online. A link to the summary page for this particular article would be a suitable replacement if needed. The link is: http://thebulletin.metapress.com/content/r111482630153263/?p=ca59ff8762344962bb40bb0a8e252287&pi=0. Atomicgurl00 (talk) 21:43, 31 July 2009 (UTC)
- Ohh, okay, I see what you did there. On Wikipedia, it is acceptable to use the Wayback Machine archive to state a point. See, everything here needs to be verifiable, and if a paper is locked behind a registration/purchase, we can't really always check to see if the statement is true. If you have a problem with the archive itself having the paper, I suggest you go take it up with them. But until such time that that link dies, the archive link is fine. — HelloAnnyong (say whaaat?!) 21:53, 31 July 2009 (UTC)
- Wikipedia states that "Unacceptable use of non-free content includes: 1. Unattributed pieces of text from a copyrighted source; 2. Excessively long copyrighted excerpts...If a work is not free, Wikipedia requires that it comply with Wikipedia's non-free use policy." http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Non-free_content

- The use of the Wayback Machine is appropriate in cases where there are no other links available. In this case, there is a link available, albeit to a summary page.
- The bulletin has a plethora of free content available – approximately 53 years’ worth. I will, however, take your advice and contact the source of this archive, in addition to removing this link. Atomicgurl00 (talk) 23:03, 31 July 2009 (UTC)
English version needs work
[edit]The English version needs some attention from a native English speaker. 66.9.234.201 (talk) 15:52, 21 September 2010 (UTC)
Sources for future article expansion
[edit]There's much more in Eldridge and some of the other new cites. I was mostly just cleaning up some of the false/overstated repetition of the Spanish discovery claims for the Bonins though. — LlywelynII 11:56, 27 January 2023 (UTC)
