A fact from Death Risk Rankings appeared on Wikipedia's Main Page in the Did you know column on 4 September 2009 (check views). The text of the entry was as follows:

Did you know... that Death Risk Rankings, nicknamed the "death calculator", allows users to view their chance of dying of sixty-six causes of death, such as murder, in a twelve-month span?

Gone?[edit]

Both http://DeathRiskRankings.com and http://DeathRiskRankings.org seem to be down. I see no references to them since they exploded onto the scene in 2009; are they still around? (The domains are still registered to CMU.) -- Dan Griscom (talk) 01:54, 10 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Still gone as of today... Dan Griscom (talk) 22:44, 21 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

The last time the Death Risk Rankings website was cached on the Internet Archive's Wayback Machine was on February 2, 2011. The next date, August 14, 2011, gives a 404 error, as does all the other later dates listed there. I've revised the article to use past tense and Wayback Machine links.

Excellent. And thanks for fixing my attempt to give a reference for when the website became unavailable. -- Dan Griscom (talk) 10:36, 28 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

You're welcome. :) Thank you for posting here that the website is down. Cunard (talk) 10:45, 28 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
