The following is a list of services that expose more lightweight, HTML-based, and ultimately more archive-friendly user interfaces of popular sites. '''They are not archival services in and of themselves.''' Some instances may have ~~captchas~~ that end up blocking certain archival services, try several.

* [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.

Line 41:

* [https://sci-hub.st/ SciHub]: Allows for the free and open access viewing of PDFs of many papers, great for getting around academic publisher paywalls to directly archive cited papers by archiving the SciHub page hosting the PDF. Alternatively, try reaching out to original authors and they will usually be happy to provide a copy for reference/citation on this wiki.

* [[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'''.

Please note that the links provided through these tools are '''not to be used in place of the original URL when being cited'''. The modified link is only to be used as a means for generating an archivable page for archival websites.
