'''Category:Archives''' — this [[Special:Categories|category]] contains {{tag|All|wikis}} and / or other articles who's ''{{tag|Wiki Topic|subject matter}}'' deals with archives and archiving. Traditionally, archives would consist of vellum scrolls, acts of parliament, patent applications, planning applications – basically, any physical {{tag|Documentation|document}} of importance created by a public body or legislative {{tag|organisation}}. The said archives would typically be stored at your county or national public records office; private organisations will typically use specialist private archiving contractors. Works of {{tag|art}} and {{tag|literature}} can be stored in archives, as can scientific research papers, medical journals, hospital records, newspapers and periodicals, and anything from the {{tag|publishing}} world may all be found in vast arrays of archives. However, in todays' digital world, massive amounts of data can be archived at multiple locations, and take up a minuscule amount of physical space compared to their former 'hard copy' equivalents; and this is colloquially known as '''[[web archiving]]'''. | '''Category:Archives''' — this [[Special:Categories|category]] contains {{tag|All|wikis}} and / or other articles who's '''<u>{{tag|Wiki Topic|subject matter}}</u>''' deals with archives and archiving.
