How to reference externally an unique webpage in OpenWayback?

[tuehlarsen]

Here is how we currently recommend researchers to reference a given web page in the danish webarchive, fx. (URL + provenance):

http://netarkivet.dk 197800-188-20140107085943-00000-sb-prod-har-005.statsbiblioteket.dk.warc/4773261 (9:01:06 jan 7, 2014 in UTC time).

It is based on on our WARC file name standard (jobnumber-harvestid-heritrixtimestamp-filesequencenumber-harvestserver.warc) + offset in the file. The information is inserted into every shown page as part of the Wayback inserted topbar using the UTC time from the http response for the given page.

The user is informed about, that other timestamps on the given page can be 1 to 2 hours before - depending on fx. danish summer or winter time.
