Formed in 2009, the Archive Team (not to be confused with the archive.org Archive-It Team) is a rogue archivist collective dedicated to saving copies of rapidly dying or deleted websites for the sake of history and digital heritage. The group is 100% composed of volunteers and interested parties, and has expanded into a large amount of related projects for saving online and digital history.

Structure
Subjects are ordered into a simple directory structure which is mirrored by index.json.
You can fill index.json's subjects by hand if you want to avoid running a script. You can also run node monotome/bin/generate.js, which will update index.json for you.
This readme.md is the start page of your wiki and each readme.md within a subject folder is the overview page for that subject.
Inlined articles
Monotome supports a link syntax for inlining other monotome articles (i.e. plain markdown files) into a source article. This technique is commonly known as transclusion.
Any link <a> with an href referring to a local file & which has the anchor tag attribute download will be inlined into the document. That is, if one file has some content followed by <a href="example/first.md" download></a>, then the contents of example/first.md is inlined in place of the anchor tag, at the position of the tag definition.
Backlinks
Monotome keeps track of backlinks, or incoming links from one article inside monotome to another. To discover backlinks, run node monotome/bin/generate.js. For a taste of what backlinks look like in practice, see the gif below.
