A dead one, a broken one or DEAD left are hyper+left in the World Wide Web designated, which do not show existing resources (for example a web page or a file) to one (more). When selecting the URL of such left the Web server normally supplies a error page with the HTTP status code error - to 404 with (file emergency Found), which means that the requested file was not found.

In controlled hypertext systems, as for example in a Wiki dead do not emerge left normally. References to not existing places are well-known however also from printed reference books.

Causes

Possible reasons for dead left are among other things:

  • The file was deleted shifted, renamed or
  • The left on the Ursprungseite is incorrectly indicated, for example for the large or lower case in the URL component after the Domainnamen

Search machines indicated often still web pages, which exist since weeks or months no longer. World largest Internet archives Archive.org document web pages in its Wayback Machine, a digital library, a great many. The chronologically arranged copies that perhaps long no more in the original existing web pages cannot be called up free of charge.
