Such a list would need to be created and maintained. I'm not sure that would be a great use of limited resources.

The practice we've been following so far is switching URLs to a more accessible article on the same story. And users often post workarounds in the threads. For example, this may work for you: https://web.archive.org/web/20190530100102/https://www.wowkt....



The behaviour could be to some extent either autodetected via remote proxies or crowdsourced, possibly via trusted contributors.

Even a partially-effective list of high-profile instances would be useful.

Removal procedure might also be considered. Automated, with an integrated proxy check, might work.


Our experience with automating things like that is that it's too hard to get right. Maybe we could if we tried hard enough, but at the cost of other things that probably matter more.


Fair enough, though submitted.
