PubMed now supports versioned citations. Revisions, scientific updates, and updates of reviews are examples of content that could be versioned. Versions are not intended for correcting specific errors in an article, for which published errata notices should continue to be used.
When you need to see an older version of a website, this is possible by using the Wayback Machine from Internet Archive. You can browse through over 150 billion web pages archived from 1996 to a few months ago. This resource can be very helpful when a newer version of a site no longer has a piece of information you are looking for or if you are just curious about what a site used to look like!
To start surfing the Wayback, type in the web address of a site or page where you would like to start, and press enter. Then select from the archived dates available. The resulting pages point to other archived pages at as close a date as possible. Please note at this time, keyword searching is not currently supported.
