Thanks for continuing to keep the site alive. I'm still recovering from the fact that the old site is gone -- I've regarded it as archival, to the point that I've cited it extensively in some of my work.

I am very glad to see how much has been retained!   A number of the links that I've checked are 404ed. 

Monika's thread:
turns-all-year.com/skiing_snowboarding/t...ex.php?topic=19425.0

Threads related to the Kendall Peak accident:
turns-all-year.com/skiing_snowboarding/t...ndex.php?topic=37001
turns-all-year.com/skiing_snowboarding/t...ndex.php?topic=36660
turns-all-year.com/skiing_snowboarding/t...ndex.php?topic=39326

Many of the TRs cited in this paper are live -- awesome!  These three discussions (and their subthreads) are 404ed:
turns-all-year.com/skiing_snowboarding/t...ex.php?topic=29855.0
turns-all-year.com/skiing_snowboarding/t...ex.php?topic=33188.0
turns-all-year.com/skiing_snowboarding/t...ex.php?topic=24400.0


Is there a way to for-loop all the old threads by number and dump them into an archival sub-forum somewhere?  Even if their attachment to sub-forums is missing, they ought to be addressable by number?

As noted elsewhere, I have a (hopefully complete) scrape of TAY from July 2017 -- ping me if it might be useful to the archival/revival effort!

Thanks again for keeping TAY alive! :-)!

Hey Charlie, thanks for reaching out. I actually stated that I'd only set up old-to-new URL redirects for TR's and not the rest that ended up in the current "Forum" section. But hey, what wouldn't I do for my fellow TAY'ers. Give it a try, and please LMK if you see any other weirdness - I couldn't set up the redirect for some 370 topics (of 25K) - long story why.

Please note topic 19425 does not exist in the old TAY database so I'm afraid it might have been deleted before I migrated the content to the new site.

Awesome -- thank you!  All the links above look great from here.

I'm not too surprised that Monika's thread didn't make it over. I know it had been hidden on and off. I don't know the reason for the decision, it may have been a family request; I'd always seen it as an incredible outpouring of loss from a tight-knit community.

Thanks for confirming, Charlie. If you (or anyone) find another broken link, please post it here, and I'll set them up one-by-one manually as needed.
