Wayback Revive offers revisions to ensure the restored site accurately reflects the archived data. Revisions are scoped to content accuracy issues — they are not a channel for new work or design changes.

What qualifies as a revision

If a page was present in the Wayback Machine snapshot but is absent from the delivered site, that is a valid revision request. Include the archived URL as a reference when you submit.
If the restoration process introduced a rendering problem — broken layout, garbled text, or a missing image — that issue qualifies for a revision.
If the text or media on a delivered page visibly differs from the archived snapshot you agreed on, raise it as a content inconsistency revision.

What does not qualify

The following are outside the scope of revisions and require a separate service request:
  • Creating new content that was never in the archive
  • Design changes beyond the archived structure
  • Adding features or functionality not present in the original site

How to submit a revision request

1

Open a support ticket

Go to the support portal and open a new ticket. Use a single ticket per issue so each one can be tracked and resolved independently.
2

Describe the specific page or issue

State the exact page URL and describe what is wrong. Be as specific as possible — for example, “the header image on /about is missing” is more actionable than “some images are broken.”
3

Attach an archive reference if possible

If you have a Wayback Machine snapshot URL that shows the correct state of the page, include it. This helps the team verify the issue and resolve it faster.
4

Submit within the review timeframe

Revision requests must be submitted within the review period communicated at delivery. Requests received after that window may be treated as new work.
