Does the Wayback Machine or other web archives have a snapshot of the Arizona Foothills Magazine profile for Erika Frantzve?
Executive summary
The Arizona Foothills Magazine profile for Erika Frantzve are present in contemporary reporting: Arizona Foothills itself published at least one profile and a separate “An Ideal Day” feature attributed to Frantzve [1] [2]. The available reporting does not include any evidence that the Internet Archive’s Wayback Machine or other web archives have a saved snapshot of those specific Arizona Foothills pages, although the Wayback Machine is cited elsewhere in reporting as an archive for deleted social posts [3].
1. What exists on Arizona Foothills: the primary material
Multiple sources point to original Arizona Foothills Magazine content about Erika Frantzve — a profile titled “Erika Frantzve: more than just a pretty face” and a separate “An Ideal Day According to Erika Frantzve” feature — and these items are referenced or quoted by later outlets summarizing her pageant background and activities [1] [2] [4] [5]. These citations establish that Arizona Foothills ran substantive material about Frantzve (including biographical details and her Miss Arizona USA coverage) that other outlets later relied upon [1] [2] [4].
2. What the provided reporting says about archived captures
None of the supplied reporting explicitly documents that the Arizona Foothills profile pages for Erika Frantzve have been archived by the Wayback Machine or by alternative archival services; the only direct archival reference in the set is an allegation that the Wayback Machine captured deleted Twitter posts (a claim made in a fringe outlet’s article about social-media deletions) rather than a saved copy of the Arizona Foothills profile itself [3]. In short, the sources show Arizona Foothills content exists, and they show the Wayback Machine being used to archive social posts in at least one contested report, but they do not connect the Wayback Machine to the AZ Foothills profile pages [1] [2] [3].
3. Corroboration by other outlets does not equal archival evidence
Major and mid‑tier outlets that republished or summarized details from Arizona Foothills — including People, The Independent, azcentral and others — cite AZ Foothills as the original outlet for quotes and biographical details about Frantzve [4] [6] [5]. Those references corroborate that an AZ Foothills profile existed and was a source for later reporting, but the presence of secondary reporting does not prove that the original AZ Foothills pages were separately archived by the Wayback Machine or archive.today; none of the secondary stories in the provided set claim to have retrieved an archived snapshot of the AZ Foothills page itself [4] [6] [5].
4. Contradictory or sensational claims about “scrubbed” material
A partisan or sensational web post asserts that the Wayback Machine preserves deleted social posts and implies broad archival rescue of material tied to Frantzve, but that post’s focus is on Twitter deletions and makes broad claims without linking to a Wayback snapshot of the Arizona Foothills profile [3]. That reporting illustrates both that the Wayback Machine is invoked in online disputes and that not every claim of “the Wayback showed it” includes a verifiable link to the alleged archived page; the supplied materials do not supply such a link for the AZ Foothills profile [3].
5. Conclusion and limitations of the evidence
Based on the supplied reporting, Arizona Foothills Magazine published profiles and features about Erika Frantzve that have been quoted by later outlets [1] [2] [4]. The reporting does not, however, provide any direct evidence that the Wayback Machine or other web archives hold a snapshot of those specific AZ Foothills pages; only a separate claim that the Wayback Machine archived deleted tweets appears in the dataset [3]. Therefore, the question “Does the Wayback Machine or other web archives have a snapshot of the Arizona Foothills Magazine profile for Erika Frantzve?” cannot be answered affirmatively from these sources — the available evidence documents the original AZ Foothills content but does not document its archival capture [1] [2] [3].
