[[The Great Restoration]] is an ongoing tennis archival and recovery project spearheaded by {{dani_phantump}}, {{VidTens443}} and RaymanChrome that began in March 2026. Through the use of an outside, anonymous extractor with access to the servers of [[YouTube]], it was discovered some days before that it was possible to recover the videos of any account that had been terminated by a third party any time up to the year 2023. Previously, this method had been used by the Recycle Bin collective to locate and extract lost videos by MeiAIDS, at which point {{dani_phantump}} crafted a list of names essential in the world of tennis that could also benefit from such retrieval. The first tennis videos to be fetched in this way were the long-lost ~~tennis videos~~ of PapaGonzales; this allowed ~~for~~ the beginning of the restoration of much missing data from the [[Tennis League 1]], including the first ever compilation of a full match from that event, Misselaioneous10 vs. PapaGonzales(2007).
