Links in Source Box- Not accessible
I’m receiving an error message for so many of my links I’ve saved in my source box. It’s not the same as if the access to the source was limited recently. Instead it is as if the sources are no longer available at all. It’s so many sources and images that are not available anywhere else online that I can find. I’m heartbroken and hope this is temporary.

Both of those messages are used to indicate new/revised restrictions. The wording has recently been changed. Personally, I think the change is a good one because it better defines why we cannot view.
I captured this image a few days ago when I was at my FamilySearch Center:
It, too, reflects a change in wording.
FamilySearch has recently had to remove many record sets or partial sets due to changes in privacy regulations in various locations.
You may find this thread useful, listing some of the locations where records are being newly restricted/removed.https://community.familysearch.org/en/discussion/comment/608020#Comment_608020
Hope this helps

The more frustrating part is all identifying information other than the title has been stripped on my records and looking for the titles those sources aren’t even available from a history center. (Page numbers, image numbers, etc. all gone). I write in the notes section for most of them so my written notes are there at least helping me remember some of what I found.

Here are examples of two impacted records. The name of the collection is the title, the webpage goes to the error messages shown previously where no page numbers or image numbers etc. are shown. I wish I had filled in notes for all of them.
