* '''1995''' - Right. Because it predates web archiving.
* '''2006''' - Right. Because it's normal for Archive.today to have old captures saved from elsewhere. These captures often no longer exist where they originally came from. 
* '''2007''' - Makes no sense. Why is 2006 clear, but 2007 is error? How are users supposed to fix the error message or clear the tracking category? -- [[User:GreenC|<span style="color: #006A4E;">'''Green'''</span>]][[User talk:GreenC|<span style="color: #093;">'''C'''</span>]] 22:33, 3 February 2026 (UTC)
