Wouldn't a reasonable compromise be to deny archiving of articles that are very recent? Let's say a month of age. That closes the paywall loophole.

- Akronymus 3y agoIt's not even about the paywall IMO, but rather about preventing the archiving of versions before they were edited.
- midasuni 3y agoHow about archiving them (every version) but not allowing access for say a month. Early and late editions of newspapers were archived - at least in the U.K., and stored at the British library. Every version published should be archived, by an independent organisation (like the BL).
- JumpCrisscross 3y ago> archiving them (every version) but not allowing access for say a month If the purpose is archival, the embargo must be at least one year. A lot of Times content is not breaking news, but investigative journalism, analysis, recipes—stuff which doesn’t lose value quickly. > newspapers were archived - at least in the U.K., and stored at the British library New York’s libraries have vast microfiche collections to which nobody objects. Going to the library to read the newspaper simply didn’t compete with the paper the way IA does.
