I'm not sure I follow what you mean.
Only the shadow knows.
I've had plenty of things that I've found and
referenced over the years that
have disappeared from where I knew it was. As such, I've taken to mirroring
copies of it on my site, with proper accreditation. I usually add a comment
to the effect that I'm hosting a local copy of it in case it disappears or
moves. I also provide a contact link at the bottom of my pages that anyone
can use to comment on said page.
The internet is written in sand.
The evil that men do lives after them;
The good is oft interred with their bones.
