Although it seems unlikely that the wiki itself will become lost media anytime soon, most of the found media is hosted on third-party file lockers, such as [[Mega]] and Mediafire. This makes automated preservation of the content extremely difficult, as those type of sites tend to block archiving tools.

Lost Media Wiki is a wiki detailing a history of lost media, such as lost movies, television shows, video games, etc.

Vital signs

Due to issues with Wikia, the owner of the wiki plans on migrating the site over to a self-hosted wiki at lostmediawiki.com.[1]

Although it seems unlikely that the wiki itself will become lost media anytime soon, most of the found media is hosted on third-party file lockers, such as Mega and Mediafire. This makes automated preservation of the found media extremely difficult, as those type of sites tend to block archiving tools.

Archives

The wiki was thrown into ArchiveBot on 2014-10-13.
