"Retreived" web page

{{helpme}} I've noticed that frequently when a there is a citated reference to a webpage on the Internet, it often appears with the words "retreived" and a date. Is this merely the date that the document was accessed or has the webpage been somehow saved in the form at which it appeared as at the date it was accessed or "retrieved". If the latter, would you please explain how this is done? Thank you. JackJud (talk) 16:33, 3 August 2010 (UTC)

It is simply the date that it was looked at by the person using the reference; it is a parameter in the template:citation and others.

AfDs

Hi. As you just participated in discussions on a closely related topic (also a current AfD re a Jewish list), which may raise some of the same issues, I'm simply mentioning that the following are currently ongoing: AfDs re lists of Jewish Nobel laureates, entertainers, inventors, actors, cartoonists, and heavy metal musicians.

Category:Israeli people by ethnic or national origin

Hi. You participated in a CfD on Category:Israeli people by ethnic or national origin two years ago. This CfD is currently being revisited so I'm hoping you can participate in the debate. Cheers, Pichpich (talk) 14:09, 7 May 2012 (UTC)
