If You See Something, Save Something – 6 Ways to Save Pages In the Wayback Machine by Alexis Rossi.

From the post:

In recent days many people have shown interest in making sure the Wayback Machine has copies of the web pages they care about most. These saved pages can be cited, shared, linked to – and they will continue to exist even after the original page changes or is removed from the web.

There are several ways to save pages and whole sites so that they appear in the Wayback Machine. Here are 6 of them.

In the comments, Ellen Spertus mentions a 7th way: Donate to the Internet Archive!

It’s the age of censorship, by governments, DMCA, the EU (right to be forgotten), Facebook, Google, Twitter and others.

Poke a censor in the eye, see something, save something to the Wayback Machine.

The Wayback Machine can’t stop all censorship, so save local and remote copies as well.

Keep poking until all censors go blind.
