| | Members of the Bibliotheca Anonoma are provided the full benefits of our infrastructure and our data to accomplish our goals. |
|
| |
|
| * [https://github.com/bibanon/bibanon/wiki/Stories Stories] - Gripping folk tales collected from around the internet, for the enjoyment of future readers. Many of these stories are important snapshots of a certain time period in a website's history. | | * [[User:Antonizoon|Antonizoon]] (Chief Archivist) - Founder of the Bibliotheca Anonoma. Primarily tasked with development, infrastructure, and management. |

He became an instant regular on our IRC, and a good pairing with pokeball99 in the BA Field Research team, since he does the basic archival, Akaibu and the rest of us do the searching. |

|
| == Projects on the Archive Team Wiki == | | === Peripheral Collaborators === |
|
| |
|
| * [[4chan]] - We made this impressive listing of all 4chan Archivers known to exist, in the past and present.
| | Users who work together closely with the Bibliotheca Anonoma. |
| | |
| == Saved Websites ==
| |
| | |
| Information on the internet is infamously volatile. In just a few seconds, sites could be there today and gone tomorrow. To prevent another Wikichan from happening, the Bibliotheca Anonoma saves down websites to be researched in their extant state.
| |
| | |
| * [https://archive.org/details/fybertech Fybertech 4thread] - Fybertech has one of the largest collections of 2008-2014 4chan threads, outside of the fallen Chanarchive and the modern 4archive. This is a contingency backup of all 9GBs of threads (up to 2015-02-16) to the Internet Archive.
| |
| * [https://archive.org/details/studionyami-com_penfifteen-2012-03-05 Penfifteen Archive] - In 2013, Vyrd discovered that some anon (whose native language is Finnish) had this curious, undocumented public archive of very, very early handarchived threads from 4chan (along with many other period-appropriate .swfs, videos, and images), spanning all the way from 2004-2008.
| |
| * [http://bibanon.org/everything-shii-knows/ Everything Shii Knows] - Shii is an important primary source for the early days of 4chan and anonymous textboards.
| |
| | |
| === Wikiteam ===
| |
| | |
| We generate dumps of important wikis for later analysis.
| |
| | |
| * [[Encyclopedia Dramatica]] - Text dumps are uploaded to the Internet Archive on a biannual basis. Image dumps are pretty difficult to do, but we'll try to do them yearly (and only for newest images? somehow)
| |
| * [[Puella Magi]] - (Archiving since March 2012)
| |
| * [[Insurgency Wiki]] - (Archived December 2011) A massive database of information made by Anonymous, especially the /i/nsurgency in the days after /b/-day from 2006-2009. It was never saved very well, and as of 2012 seems to be in an unusable state.
| |
| | |
| === Saved Collections ===
| |
| | |
| * [https://archive.org/details/4chan-threads-2009-2012 4GBs of 4chan Threads 2009-2012] - Assorted webpages from 4chan, saved between late 2009 and early 2012. Many of these are from Chanarchive, /b/ or other boards not archived by the Fuuka Archivers, so they are extremely rare and valuable.
| |
| * [https://archive.org/details/InformationLibraryAll.7z Information Library v2.0+2.1] -
| |
| The Information Library is a gigantic collection of informative images from 4chan created by an anon called InformantB900. It composes 2,206 images containing guides, strange facts, and cool tips, organized in 180 folders.
| |
| * [https://archive.org/details/instaoldfagkit.7z Insta-Oldfag Kit]/Anti-Newfag Kit -
| |
| The Insta-Oldfag Kit is a collection of various OP image thread starters or reaction images, in convenient folders, as well as a few thread screencaps. It was uploaded to the Internet Archive by the Bibliotheca Anonoma.
| |
| * [https://github.com/bibanon/bibanon/wiki/Moot-Video-Archive Moot Video Archive] - A collection of every talk or panel that Moot up to 2011. The torrent died recently, and we're scraping together what we can.
| |
| * [https://github.com/bibanon/Neglected-Mario-Characters/wiki Neglected Mario Characters] - One of the first sprite comics to appear on the web in the 1990s. Died after an ugly spat of infighting.
