BoTNS makes the Guardian's Top 1000

This is the message as the crawl holds it, before anything here touched it. What the conversation shows has been through ingest: transfer encodings decoded, attachments dropped, quote markers repaired, and the archiver’s ? resolved into quotation marks and dashes. Those repairs are judgements and some of them are wrong, which is what this page is for. Email addresses are obscured here as they are everywhere else on the site, so it is before our repairs rather than byte for byte.

I don't think those are part of the 1000, though, are they? Actually, 
it's hard to tell if they're extras or pulled out for special attention. 
Maybe it will be clearer when the list is complete.
