Formed in 2009, the Archive Team (not to be confused with the archive.org Archive-It Team) is a rogue archivist collective dedicated to saving copies of rapidly dying or deleted websites for the sake of history and digital heritage. The group is 100% composed of volunteers and interested parties, and has expanded into a large amount of related projects for saving online and digital history.
History is littered with hundreds of conflicts over the future of a community, group, location or business that were "resolved" when one of the parties stepped ahead and destroyed what was there. With the original point of contention destroyed, the debates would fall to the wayside. Archive Team believes that by duplicated condemned data, the conversation and debate can continue, as well as the richness and insight gained by keeping the materials. Our projects have ranged in size from a single volunteer downloading the data to a small-but-critical site, to over 100 volunteers stepping forward to acquire terabytes of user-created data to save for future generations.
The main site for Archive Team is at archiveteam.org and contains up to the date information on various projects, manifestos, plans and walkthroughs.
This collection contains the output of many Archive Team projects, both ongoing and completed. Thanks to the generous providing of disk space by the Internet Archive, multi-terabyte datasets can be made available, as well as in use by the Wayback Machine, providing a path back to lost websites and work.
Our collection has grown to the point of having sub-collections for the type of data we acquire. If you are seeking to browse the contents of these collections, the Wayback Machine is the best first stop. Otherwise, you are free to dig into the stacks to see what you may find.
The Archive Team Panic Downloads are full pulldowns of currently extant websites, meant to serve as emergency backups for needed sites that are in danger of closing, or which will be missed dearly if suddenly lost due to hard drive crashes or server failures.

become problematic, impairing functioning in personal,
family, and other life domains. Parental and family factors
are known to influence the odds that adolescents may
develop problematic gaming (PG), negative parenting and
conflictual family dynamics increasing the risk, whereas
positive parenting and developmentally supportive family
dynamics protecting against PG. This suggests that a treatment
for adolescent PG should not only address the gaming
behaviors and personal characteristics of the youth, but
also the parental and family domains. An established
research-supported treatment meeting these requirements
is multidimensional family therapy (MDFT), which we
adapted for use as adolescent PG treatment. We report here
on one adaptation, applying in-session gaming.
In-session demonstration of the “problem behavior” is
feasible and informative in PG. In the opening stage of
therapy, we use in-session gaming to establish an alliance
between the therapist and the youth. By inviting them to
play games, the therapist demonstrates that they are taken
seriously, thus boosting treatment motivation.
Later in treatment, gaming is introduced in family sessions,
offering useful opportunities to intervene in family
members' perspectives and interactional patterns revealed
in vivo as the youth plays the game. These sessions can
trigger strong emotions and reactions from the parents and
youth and give rise to maladaptive transactions between
the family members, thus offering ways to facilitate new
discussions and experiences of each other. The insights
gained from the game demonstration sessions aid the
therapeutic process, more so than mere discussion about
gaming.
