===Article recovery Guide===
This is a guide to recover articles that the internet archive didnt save.
On the internet archive (well old Waypoint) there is an "id" for each Waypoint article. Articles may hold links which have these ids in them that the internet archive didnt save.

These can be used with the following url

Where you replace "ID" with the "id" of the article.
