It's not that it's not indexed, just not the top result. Maybe it dropped as a regular result because of confusion about whether "web.archive.org" is the same/similar to www.archive.org

who knows

There's definitely variations on it too, appearing as a subpage of Internet Archive listings..... appearing as it's own thing with direct search field underneath etc. It's all variations. (Not arguing that it shouldn't be a result for "wayback machine" search, but that's a quality issue)


Right at the top for me.


For me the top result is sep11.wikipedia.org, not wayback.archive.org.


I have http://archive.org as second result (yes, not https), sep11... is also the first for me


Top for me as well. It may have to do with what Google has learned from observing your search history?


It shows up on bing, yahoo, and yandex, but not google.


Tell HN:


This just demonstrated that now Google is Evil.
