-    <p><a href="https://weather.torproject.org/">Tor Weather</a> provides
-    an email notification service to any users who want to monitor the
-    status of a Tor node. Upon subscribing, you can specify what types of
-    alerts you would like to receive. The main purpose of Tor Weather is
-    to notify node operators via email if their node is down for longer
-    than a specified period, but other notification types are available.

-    If you control the name servers for your domain, consider setting your
-    reverse DNS hostname to 'anonymous-relay', 'proxy' or 'tor-proxy', so when
-    other people see the address in their web logs, they will more quickly
-    understand what's going on. Adding the <a
-    href="<gitblob>contrib/operator-tools/tor-exit-notice.html">Tor
-    exit notice</a> on a vhost for this name can go a long way to deterring abuse
-    complaints to you and your ISP if you are running an exit node.
