Talk:Lost media

Poorly animated show about a little blonde girl in this giant bedroom where she is small and there are toys that are alive some are nice but the jack in the box is mean i think

I think I saw this back in the early 2000s but it was on a DVD and for some reason I used to watch it all the freaking time. anyways all I remember is the animation looked as if it was from the late 90s and I remember this big tree someone was sitting in and a house that I think was white and had some purple. anyways this little blonde girl was super small and was in a giant bedroom and there were these toys that were alive and some were good and some were bad I think (no I'm not talking about toys story) but please if you know what I'm talking about please help me find it I haven't seen it in over 12 years as I think my mom donated the DVD along with my other childhood shows on DVD. hmu up snapchat @spfxwizard8157 if you have any information thank you.

Proposed expansion to "Lost electronic data"

As of the writing of this section, I added a "Lost electronic data" section which developed slightly how data coming from legacy systems could be lost in modern computer systems; I intended to add another paragraph, it is this one:

"Future attempts at preservation are further complicated by the lack of accessibility to the data caused by the fact that the formats these files were originally stored on may not be implemented, or the storage media may now be unusable in more recent computer systems, which means that for accessing files originally from older computer systems in order to preserve them, unless an emulator for that particular computer system is already present, reverse engineering is often necessary to access the original data.".

I didn't add it at first because the sources were a little unrelated to the paragraph I was developing in the article, and seemed to nudge the article more towards a view of data preservation, so I wanted to check what did you think about the extension to that section, so it could be discussed more openly here.

Thank you.

Lost albums?

Should a Wikipedia article be created about lost music albums?

Here is one source: [1]

I have been looking a little into it and I have found some interesting possible sources, the Record collecting article sources could hold something on lost albums/tracks, as the ones from Rare groove more specifically. I have found more information about lost tracks than about lost albums specifically, which could be interesting for a section here; though, I am not sure if there is enough information on lost albums to warrant its own Wikipedia article.

Lost Video Games

I think this section could do with work: it mostly focuses on games that are unavailable due to digital stores and publishers closing down but those aren't really lost, just unavailable to the public. They probably still exist in company archives and backups. What's not mentioned are any genuinely lost and notable games, like Ultima 8: The Lost Vale which was reportedly completed but not released and of which only a box survives. 14.201.45.134 (talk) 04:23, 18 May 2023 (UTC)

Extended–confirmed edit request

The section on TV broadcasts on this article is completely empty. Someone needs to add the appropriate template. CharlieEdited (talk) 02:08, 8 July 2023 (UTC)
