Links are never hidden behind a paywall of ours. Where a copy of the page exists it is linked beside the source with the date it was taken, because news links rot and a dead link next to a saved copy is still evidence. Some copies predate this register: they were made by the Internet Archive before we existed, and the date shown is the date of that copy, not of our visit.

One source is shown here. News cases are corroborated across at least two independent domains before publication, but for cases published before the corroborating set was recorded, only the source the case was written from was kept. That is a gap in our record keeping, not a case published on a single source, and it cannot be filled retrospectively.
