Connection Failed page should give links to 3rd-party caches

Description:
When an error is encountered retrieving a page, links to caching services such
as Google and WayBackMachine, (or mirrors, such as answers.com, if available)
should be offered, so the user can still find the content they need.

Also, move "Please try your request again" up to the top, so it reads, "The
requested URL could not be retrieved. Please try your request again in a few
minutes."

I don't know what "Your cache administrator is nobody" means.


ERROR
The requested URL could not be retrieved

While trying to retrieve the URL:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Search?search=microsoft

The following error was encountered:

  • Connection to 10.0.5.3 Failed

The system returned:

(110) Connection timed out

The remote host or network may be down. Please try the request again.

Your cache administrator is nobody.

I don't see why we need to provide links to third-party sites in this case. I could /maybe/ see an argument for adding a link to http://static.wikipedia.org/new/wikipedia/en/index.html
