Hi Sky, I have not found any article about how to add web archive. I'd would like to add this web archive (https://archive.ph/iq5YM) in one of my new drafts but i don't know. Could you help me please?

Hi there,

Archived pages by themselves are not considered reliable sources, but they are an essential addition to sources, as online content can often become unavailable due to removal or relocation. The standard citation template for web pages, Template:Cite_web, supports the inclusion of archive links alongside the original source.

If the original page is no longer available (deleted or relocated), you should use the parameter |dead-url= yes.

In your case, the citation would look like this:

{{Cite web |url= https://boysmania.uol.com.br/revista/victor-manzini-119.html |title= Entrevista com Victor Manzini |publisher= BoysMania |website= boysmania.uol.com.br |language= Brazilian Portuguese |access-date= 23 January 2025 |archive-url= https://archive.ph/iq5YM |archive-date= 23 January 2025 |dead-url= no }}

To display the source correctly in the References section, wrap it in <ref> tags like this:

<ref>{{Cite web |url= https://boysmania.uol.com.br/revista/victor-manzini-119.html |title= Entrevista com Victor Manzini |publisher= BoysMania |website= boysmania.uol.com.br |language= Brazilian Portuguese |access-date= 23 January 2025 |archive-url= https://archive.ph/iq5YM |archive-date= 23 January 2025 |dead-url= no }}</ref>

The Cite web template has detailed documentation that can help you better understand its specifications.
