These are sources, sometimes printed, of very temporary natures. Websites are notoriously ephemeral; all are merely one button click or one missed internet payment from going dark. Snapshots of many websites are stored on the "Wayback Machine" but don't count on finding all contents that websites once held, especially those that supplied information from databases.
