Archive the Evidence: Help Wayback Machine and MuckRock preserve the links from the redacted Mueller Report

See what’s hiding in plain sight behind the footnotes

Help the Internet Archive’s Wayback Machine and MuckRock build up an annotated version of the redacted Mueller Report, including URLs to all the publicly referenced government documents, news accounts, and other reference materials.

We’re partnering with Archive.org to go through all submitted URLs to capture historical copies of them, and we’ll then put together an annotated version that includes the title of the material reference, links to the live material, and links to the Wayback Machine‘s archival copies of the same material, in case anything is removed or altered.

To participate, just click through the button and fill out the fields requested for each footnote on that page that includes a link or other specific reference to material. Skip footnotes that do not have any materials referenced or that are fully redacted. If there is another footnote after the one you noted, click “Submit and Add Another” and proceed to the next footnote on that page. When you’ve finished all the footnotes on a given page, click “Submit.”

If there are not footnotes or the page is otherwise unreadable, click “Skip.” If a footnote is already highlighted in a box on the page, skip to the next footnote.

And see below for an example of a completed page.
