According to :
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Bot_requests#btinternet

On October 31st, BT Internet a UK ISP will terminate certain web-hosting services. (http://bt.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/39105/~/the-free-bt-web-hosting-service-is-closing)

It would be greatly appreciated if an effort could be made to archive as many sites formerly hosted with BT Internet
before the OCt31st closure.

At least 3000 sites (with the ISP concerned) are linked to from English Wikipedia, and it would be useful to link to archive versions for citation purposes.

Thanks in advance.
