[RPG] How to continue to access Wizards of the Coast’s D&D 3.5 Web articles

dnd-3.5ednd-3eonline-resources

It appears that in anticipation of D&D Next Wizards of the Coast has removed much of the Dungeons and Dragons, 3rd Edition Web content. I didn't perform a thorough search to determine if all the content is removed (e.g. I know the Three Dragon Ante Web enhancement "Luck of the Draw" and the Mind's Eye column about psionic tattoos "Getting Wired" are both gone–better not to ask why those are my go-to articles), but it all might be.

What's the best way–and by best I mean both legal and convenient–to continue to access this content?

Best Answer

Much of the content is still on Wizards' website. Why they didn't create proper redirections I don't know.

Some of it is preserved by "simply" prefixing the word archive to the old URL. For example, the url wizards.com/default.asp?x=dnd/arch/we can now be found under archive.wizards.com/default.asp?x=dnd/arch/we. In some cases more modifications have to be made, but I have not discovered a system.

For links that can not be reconstructed, I recommend the Wayback machine.
