Should the above be on the page, not here on the talk page? IMO -- Yes. --IReceivedDeathThreats (talk) 19:46, 5 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] free? and copyright?

Contrary to what is claimed in the lead paragraph of this article ,

  • "There are various possible models to cover the ongoing costs of operations. The most likely model is that publishers will pay a membership fee (similar to PILA/CrossRef membership fees) to have their cited webreferences archived. There is no fee for authors. Readers from publishers/journals who are WebCite® members will also have free access to archived material, unless publishers opt to charge their readers or to make this is value added service for subscribers only."

and

  • "The membership fee for full membership is currently a voluntary donation which should be dependent on your publishing revenue and the number of scholarly articles with webreferences you are publishing per year. We recommend to donate $1 per WebCite reference per year. For example, if you publish 500 articles per year, and each of these articles contains on average one webreference, we recommend to donate $500. We ask for a minimum donation of $20" {http://www.webcitation.org/mailform.php membership application form]

[edit] Webcitaition.org links don't work

Webcitation.org seems to be gone. Someone needs to update this article to explain it's disapearance. What is the alternative? What is to become of all the archived pages?--141.217.91.33 (talk) 13:26, 9 June 2008 (UTC)

Seems to be working just fine now.--Sting Buzz Me... 22:49, 9 June 2008 (UTC)
