Rules and Protocols for the Naked Houseboy - Alternate Archives

1. The archive site "Rules and Protocols for the Naked Houseboy - Archive",
   http://web.archive.org/*/http://rulesandprotocols.tumblr.com/ (the archive.org site),
    
2. The current sites, consisting of
   • https://nakedhouseboy.bdsmlr.com/ (the mobile site), and
   • https://rulesandprotocols.bdsmlr.com (the current site)
   as a unified archive;
    
3. Naked Assessment https://nakedassessment.bdsmlr.com/, and
    
4. Naked Compliance.

The pages are titled to be in rule/interpretation/submission number order, i.e., 101-a from the archive.org site, 101-m from the mobile site, and 101-c from the current site, unless the site does not have a rule number, usually only the archive.org site version (000-a); if an unnumbered rule (000-a) is later found to have a number, then the entry will be changed to include the rule number from the unnumbered default (000-a). Rule text and links may change over the period of the archive but once acquired, text/links are not reviewed for changes; links would point to the originating site; errors in links may be corrected but the Archivist gives no assurance that this will be done for any undiscovered link error. Links added by the Archivist will refer to this site. Blog entries are dated with either the date submitted, if available, or the date of the archive, if from the archive.org site. If no date is available, then the designation number 000 will be used. Blogs may also have a blog number, but this archive views the blog number as a secondary reference.

To aid in readability, Grammarly was used to revise the text for spelling and grammar issues when the original text varied from US Standard English, including inconsistent use of "the Master" vis-à-vis simply "Master" from the original text; at times, the Archivist will make changes beyond those recommended by Grammarly to have more consistent use of "the Master" but does not assure that such style is complete throughout these alternate archives.

The original text varies between "the slave" and "the house boy." Further, the original text varies between the Naked House Boy (un-italicized) and the Naked House Boy (italicized). The Archivist has not done anything to resolve either case of such inconsistent use.

When a previously unnumbered rule (i.e., rule 000-a) is later found to be numbered, the rule name of the archived unnumbered rule will be changed as needed to match the numbered rule name and the archived unnumbered rule will be numbered; this is primarily from the archive.org site. A previously archived rule may have updated text from the original site; the Archivist may update this archive when the original site changes but does not take on the responsibility to ensure that the herein archive is always updated.

Blogs may be later updated to have the date of entry when such is available from the originating site, usually only the archive.org backup of tumblr.com; bdsmlr.com does not easily show a date of entry. Blogs with bad links from the archive.org site may be corrected to point to the correct blog entry but there is no assurance that the Archivist will do that for all instances.

Duplicate use of a rule number for multiple topics may be noted, but there is no attempt to resolve such conflict; this also is mainly in the archive.org site.

When a mobile site rule (101-m) has a corresponding current site counterpart for the same topic (101-c), they may be blended (101-b) concurrent to the second entry being discovered but this is not assured.
