===Archive.today/Archive.ph===
The Internet Archive excluded the 'sharty. This 'chive is a good alternative as it only removes 'p and pirated content.
 
====Simple archive====
To do a simple archive, simply paste the thread link into the field that reads "My url is alive and I want to archive its content" and then press the button that says "save". This alone is okay for things like history documentation, especially if a thread is looooong (like [[Giggly Goonclown#The Thread|this one]]).
 
====Archiving media====
If you [[Science Lover Soyjak | HATE being stuck with thumbnails]], then you can open each original image as it appears in the thread in a new tab and archive each individual link it the same manner you would a thread. You can attempt to archive videos in the same way, but they will NOT embed on Archive.today and are NOT downloadable from the archive.
 
====Video tutorial====
If you found the text tutorial hard to follow, here's a video tutorial. [[File:Soyarchivetutorial480p.mp4|thumb|left|After following this tutorial, put the archived thread link in a place [[you]] can easily have access to later.]]

This page is a gem.


This article is meant to be about how an average 'teen can archive gems because nothing on the internet is permanent, and less so on the sharty!

Public archive sites

You can submit a URL to these sites and view it later.

DO NOT exclusively use a single 'chive to save webpages. It’s recommended to ‘chive pages via multiple means, otherwise if an archive suddenly disappears or deletes our pages like archive.org did, your archive doesn't become lost media. Two citations don't hurt.

If you want to be handheld see: Archiving/archive.today tutorial

Local archiving

Truly nothing on the internet is permanent, not even archive sites. That's why it's important to save stuff (e.g. images, videos, and even entire webpages) to your local hard drive and to preferably make backups. You can use special software for this part.

  • Ctrl+S on your browser - Sorta works, but ugly
  • Singlefile extension (Chrome/Firefox) - Good overall. Saves the page as you see it in one .html file. Saves full images if you open them.
  • Another option: >he doesn't have a custom-programmed live sharty-compatible vichan archiver >shiggy saving individual threads
  • yt-dlp is a youtube-dl fork that allows you to save audio and video from YouTube and many other sites.
  • ArchiveBox allows you to run your own website archiver locally (can also apparently import from browser bookmarks or history).
  • Learn how to scrape websites with Python or whatever you selfish little fuck.

Lost archives

There have been three separate incidents in which where the sharty lost access to archives. The first was the logwarehouse on june 5th, which caused a massive loss of posts from late november 2022 to early june 2023. The second time was when the sharty was excluded from the Wayback Machine on December 13th after they were snitched on, unleashing a catastrophic loss of 10000+ archives, especially ones from the early days. Most of these were only archived on Wayback Machine and are now permanently lost. The third time was when the archive.soyjak.in went down, but you'd expect we wisened up by the third time it happened.

/chive/

Particularly important threads, like Q&As, are also sometimes archived by moderators on-site on /chive/.

Shinny archive

Are you sure that it's just getting started? Because my peer-reviewed studies indicate that IT'S OVER.

archive.soyjak.in was a replacement for now defunct Log Warehouse based on Hayden. While it is fast and simple, it unfortunately lacks any sort of search features. It is also recommended that you archive particularly important threads manually.
