Troubleshooting Missing Links: Why are old topics vanishing?

Question:

I noticed that approximately half of the bookmarks on this site are no longer functional. This is concerning, as the information they lead to is extremely valuable. Examples of broken links include https://www.maintenance.org/top...64439074#70920918763 and https://www.maintenance.org/top...t/399590942964645389. What could be causing this issue?

They pointed out that half of their bookmarks no longer work, leading them to question the reliability of the site. Beatnik emphasized the value of the information on the site but expressed frustration over the broken links. Curious about the situation, they wondered if there were any contentious responses that could have led to the bookmarks becoming unusable. Beatnik indicated their intention to review the bookmarks they had marked as "useful" to see if any of them were affected as well.
