I find the text "permanent dead link" rather odd. Could we change it to "permanently dead link"? It's an adverb, saying that the link is dead in a permanent way, i.e. permanently dead; it's not the link that is permanent.

This category keeps track of articles with the {} template that have the fix-attempted parameter set to "yes". These are cases in which someone has tried to fix the dead link by replacing it with an archive link, but no archive could be found. In these cases, it may be best to remove or replace the link.
