News Archives

At the moment, there are two central news archives at Age of Kings Heaven. One is the News Forum, where you can find all news posted after August 2008. The other archive is right on this page; take your pick. And don’t forget to read the stuff at the bottom of the page, as it’ll probably answer any questions you might have.

<insert question about 1998 and/or 1999 here>

Yeah, we know. The news in those years was either published by hand or through the news script predating NewsPro; consequently, the structure was disastrous (nobody cared about web standards back then) and the archiving wasn’t automated which is equally disastrous. Cue implications:

For 1998, we’re missing chunks of news as well as all images; it’s a shame, but if even archive.org no longer has it we’re basically out of luck. Unless you could help, in which case see below.

For 1999, we’re still missing an entire month worth of news even though we do still have all of the images. You may also notice that some of the news doesn’t seem to fit aesthetically; if so, you’d be right – 1999 is still subject to tweaking.

If, by happy chance, you still have access to any of the missing news items, please contact Felix so that he can add them to the archives. It’s a long shot, but you never know… Thanks in advance.

A list of the news that’s vanished:

  • all of January 1999;
  • all of December 1998;
  • November 18, 1998 to November 31, 1998;
  • October 22, 1998 to October 31, 1998;
  • September 1, 1998 to September 3, 1998 and September 16, 1998 to September 30, 1998;
  • August 26, 1998 to August 31, 1998;
  • June 1, 1998 to June 9, 1998, June 26, 1998 and June 27, 1998;
  • May 30, 1998;
  • May 16, 1998 to May 26, 1998;
  • and finally, all of January 1998.

As an aside, June 2007 isn’t missing; there just wasn’t any news during that month.
