* [https://megalodon.jp/ Megalodon] – Secondary, Japanese archival service. Can archive YouTube comments.

* [https://preservetube.com/ PreserveTube] – Specifically for archiving YouTube videos.

* [[Special:Upload|Consumer Rights Wiki]] – Upload screenshots of pages for direct quoting or if an archival service cannot get past something like a registration-wall. Do not upload more of an article than is necessary for supporting the citation.

'''Archive.today has been deprecated.''' This is because they weaponised their site's visitors to [[wikipedia:Denial-of-service_attack#Distributed_DoS|DDOS]] some guy's blogs for bizarre internet argument reasons (which calls into question the reliability of the maintainer and site, and the ethics of using it), and it's also been alleged that they have tampered with archive pages, which hurts our ability to rely on the site as an archive which can be used to actually verify things and support the claims made in articles.

* [https://github.com/zedeus/nitter/wiki/Instances Nitter]: Allows for viewing Twitter/X replies without login and therefore only way to archive replies. The best way to cite Twitter/X references.

* [https://github.com/redlib-org/redlib-instances/blob/main/instances.md Redlib]: Lightweight like old.reddit, good for getting around 18+/nsfw gates that archival services cannot pass (some subreddits flag all posts as nsfw regardless of content).

* [[Special:Upload|Consumer Rights Wiki]]: Upload screenshots of pages or PDFs for direct quoting or if an archival service cannot get past something like a registration-wall. Do not upload more of an article than is necessary for supporting the citation. Archive the CRW link or upload the file to [https://archive.org/upload Internet Archive file uploads] as CRW is '''not an archive on its own'''.
