* It is not possible to save WebCite URLs at archive.org - it may appear to save correctly, but is an unreliable method. For why see [[Talk:WebCite#general_problem|this discussion]].
* Be aware of "content drift". When a web page has content that changes over time, such as stock prices or weather updates, this is called "drift". When the original WebCite snapshot was created it contains the intended information eg. current status of a typhoon at a certain day and hour. However, this page may change quickly, any any future snapshot of that same page will have the wrongdifferent information. Thus when finding snapshots at other archive providers, be aware of content drift for certain types of pages.
