I've been casually trying to get into data archiving, saving information from things like the emursive/punchdrunk show that recently closed "Sleep No More", however with recent events with the CDC website scrubbing data on anything queer/lgbt, I wanted to start helping with the effort of preserving that which is being erased.

I've just been going through the "banned" terms on the CDC website, downloading any PDFs and saving any of the pages I can as PDFs, as well as attempting to save links onto the wayback machine and using it for any cdc pages that are already downed/scrubbed.

Anybody have any tips for methods/tools to make this more efficient than just panic downloading whatever I can? any tips on places to post these for others who may want to access this information?

Thank y'all in advance!
