How do you copy and save a webcached url? wayback machine seemed to to not like it when I plopped down the whole url to save.
 
here’s the two I tried. both of these i’m unsure if they were archived in there entirety.
 
http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:YcxCAdltpHsJ:ficficponyfic.tumblr.com/+&cd=1&hl=en&ct=clnk&gl=us

Progress report:
 
I downloaded all the Inactive Story Tumblrs from Derpibooru’s list here with TumblThree, they are marked as “Archived” in the spreadsheet now. I also progressed through the remaining NSFW Tumblrs from 2018 and completed the archiving effort by Sky Cream for a couple of them. They are also marked as “Archived” now.  
There are three Tumblrs that are only available in Google Cache anymore. They need archiving in the WaybackMachine before Google Cache overwrites their URLs with the empty blogs. I have to go to sleep soon, so I can’t do this before tomorrow, which might be too late.  
Anyone, please go and put all pages and the pictures (right-click on the picture, copy picture URL and put this URL under “Save Page”) of these three pony Tumblrs into the WaybackMachine:

@CMC Scootaloo  
well I have to halt my efforts till this afternoon, as I have to go to work.  
resuming in the afternoon.  
laters.

@Shadow_Blitz
 
Why would you do that? If the Tumblrs are pony Tumblrs and you archived them, then keep the archives! Just because there are more lists with more Tumblrs around doesn’t mean already archived Tumblrs are suddenly worthless.
 
You can, however, go through the new lists I added to the sheet and compare them with the Tumblrs you archived from the other list by twkr.  
If you have any of the Tumblrs on my lists already archived, mark them as such, and if there any new Tumblrs on it that you haven’t archived, you can proceed to do that.  
That there are several lists makes it important to compare them, so that we don’t archive a Tumblr twice.

@redweasel  
what? that is rather cryptic……

@Shadow_Blitz
 
second star to the right, and straight on ’til morning.

@Background Pony #11C9  
well I am awaiting directions.

@Shadow_Blitz  
Nothing is junk

@Background Pony #1A91  
because I don’t know what is junk or not

@Shadow_Blitz  
Why would you need to delete them?

@CMC Scootaloo  
Help, are you saying that all the work that I have done thus far, on the text file that twkr gave me. tumblrs_alive_stage2.txt is of no use?
 
if so I am going to abandon it and delete all that I have backed up thus far over the past 5 days. and start with your google sheets on the weekend….

@furrypony
 
The lock symbol is gone, it seems so.
 

 
To every archiver and downloader, Furrypony’s spreadsheet is now updated with the lists for Inactive NSFW Tumblrs, Inactive Story Tumblrs, Inactive SFW Tumblrs, Active SFW Tumblrs (2018) and Active SFW Tumblrs (Before 2018), copied from Derpibooru:
 
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1UN2cVWkCSF6dMMo5aMzVwXVSZonVAYH4IGXLUmf9gc0/edit#gid=295662404
 
 
There are more NSFW Tumblrs in there, and many more SFW Tumblrs, both active and inactive. The SFW and Story Tumblrs need to be rescued as well, because we don’t know what a dysfunctional algorithm might hit and delete, especially the inactive SFW/Story Tumblrs whose owners aren’t around to appeal a false takedown anymore.  
Please go through the lists and save what you can.

Why is TumbThree downloading sooo much more stuff for the tumbler zangusu than what it said in the column after it. in the “Number of Downloads” there is 8507. and in the “Downloaded Files column, it is already 82401, and counting.
 
Is this normal?

@CMC Scootaloo  
should work fine now?

@furrypony
 
I have gone ahead and updated your spreadsheet with tabs for Inactive NSFW Tumblrs, Inactive Story Tumblrs, Inactive SFW Tumblrs, Active SFW Tumblrs (2018) and Active SFW Tumblrs (Before 2018), with the blogs from the other lists here on Derpibooru.  
I somehow ended up locking them entirely, it seems, and now Google Docs doesn’t let me undo it when I try to remove the lock. Please help me with this.

Can confirm that TumblThree downloads hidden blogs. I got a few already.

I’m pretty sure that TumblThree grabs blocked files. It sets the ‘modified date’ property on the images as the date of the post (super nice feature feature). http://scyllas-cove.tumblr.com/archive is an unflagged blog with flagged posts and when I sort the files by date I have images that line up with the blocked post place holders. I tried https://www.tumblr.com/dashboard/blog/stratica-x and it seems to work with the flagged blogs too.
 
I’m using v1.0.8.68 with the added options to search for image and video patterns. I checked the previous version 1.0.8.68 and it grabbed the blocked ones too.

ive been getting some as well

Admittedly I haven’t verified the claim myself since it’s a paint to run on Linux. But it was said only starting a few hours ago, still worth checking again if it’s been a day since the last time.

@Darkenetor  
@Shadow_Blitz  
In the last day TumblThree has been getting stuff from hidden blogs without issue, including posts I know were flagged as sensitive (hidden).
 
It’s ~Tumblr~, so impossible to say if that’s 100% for all blogs, though.

@Darkenetor  
But I have been using TumblThree, is all my efforts these past days for nought?

Tumblr-grab updated, if there’s something still to download this will work again for a while on hidden blogs and I think single posts too. TumblrThree is dead for good for hidden stuff.

@Garden Tinker
 
Which ones? The NSFW blogs or are you asking about archiving the blogs in the WaybackMachine in an automated way?  
The NSFW blogs that are still accessible by TumblrThree despite being hidden now can just be downloaded the usual way; by putting the URLs of the blogs in TumblrThree and creating a queue for the program to go through.  
For the WaybackMachine, I asked that myself already, but haven’t received a response yet.
 
 
@furrypony
 
Thanks! I will add notes if necessary.

@twkr  
Ah.
