Wikipedia Infobox 'Official Website' Link Rot Rate
This page monitors the proportion of 'official website' links within Wikipedia infoboxes that are no longer functional. We also measure the median time it takes for these links to respond, indicating their general health.
These figures are derived from a systematic analysis of Wikipedia data. By tracking how often these crucial links become obsolete, we gain a unique perspective on the durability of digital presences for a wide range of entities, from businesses and organisations to individuals and concepts.
The longevity of an official website link offers a novel insight into the stability of documented entities. This data is not systematically tracked elsewhere and can reveal patterns in how digital footprints endure over time.
