These screenshots show that on January 4, the journals' web site - http://www.yhcqw.com - was shut down and visitors were redirected to this IP address - http://121.101.208.43/tonggao/weibeian.html - with a notice reading:Political reform is about building a system in place than can check power, and that means conscientiously protecting the rights of citizens. There is much language within our Constitution that preserves human rights, and that limits the power of the state. If we compare and contrast our Constitution and our reality, we discover that the system, policies and laws currently in force create a massive gap between the Constitution and the conduct of our government. Our Constitution is essentially void.
政治体制改革就是要建立一套对权力制衡的制度体系，就是要切实保证公民权利。《宪法》中有很丰富的保障人权、限制国家权力的内容。将《宪法》和现实对照，就会发现现行的制度、政策、法令和很多政府行为，和宪法的差距十分遥远。我们的宪法基本上被虚置。

The web site resumed operation on January 18. This screenshot, taken on January 20, shows that Sina Weibo was still censoring "political reform," and it would therefore not be possible to find posts by searching for the title of the article.
The following are translations of explanations of the situation that The Annals of the Yellow Emperor posted on its Sina Weibo:
January 4: 10:08 am - http://e.weibo.com/1421452137/zcSmmaBhm
The web site of the Annals of the Yellow Emperor was suddenly cancelled. Today (January 4) at around 9:00 am the web site was shut down. Last year on December 31 we received an SMS and an email signed by the "Ministry of Industry and Information Technology Web Site Registration System" saying: "The web site of the Annals of the Yellow Emperor with your registration information has been cancelled, and the ICP registration number Beijing 08100492 for this web site has been rescinded. You have been notified!" The notice did not indicate why the why the registration was suddenly cancelled. Our publication is currently trying to understand the details.
January 5: 8:30 am - http://e.weibo.com/1421452137/zd19ceo0a
After arriving at the office today, the publication's staff, following the instructions of the Beijing Communication Administration, contacted our ISP and undertook relevant registration procedures. We hope that this will allow the ICP registration number of the web site of the Annals of the Yellow Emperor to be restored as quickly as possible, and for the web site to resume operations soon. We deeply appreciate the enthusiastic attention of the many Internet users regarding the Annals of the Yellow Emperor.
January 5: 8:58 pm - http://e.weibo.com/1421452137/zd62K6BmE
This afternoon we completed ICP registration procedures with our ISP and submitted them for examination and verification. This morning an woman surnamed Zhu at the Beijing Communications Administration explained: "After your registration application is submitted examination and verification can be completed in about 10 working days." We hope that the Annals of the Yellow Emperor will be able to re-commense operations soon. The main essays of this year's inaugural issue will be posted on Weibo in serialization, and we welcome Internet users to read it.
January 6: 3:30 pm - http://e.weibo.com/1421452137/zddk8sAN8
Thanks to all Internet users for your concern. We offer the following responses to the questions Internet users have raised: 1. Since the Annals of the Yellow Emperor web site launched we have only received two mail notices from the MIIT web site registration system. Before the web site launched we received a "Notice that registration application has passed examination and verification," and when the web site was shut down we received a notice saying "The Annals of the Yellow Emperor web site has been cancelled, and the registration number has been rescinded." In the interim we did not receive any notice from the relevant agencies, including any notice that we needed to "re-register." (continued)
January 6: 3:30 pm - http://e.weibo.com/1421452137/zddkdu0jg
(continued) 2. The Annals of the Yellow Emperor web site's ICP registration number was always used in an appropriate manner (up until it was rescinded on December 31, 2012), and the web site was always operated in an appropriate manner (up until it was cancelled on December 31, 2012). 3. Who should responsible for informing and oversight when a company's ICP registration has been cancelled and they themselves don't know the situation and that a so-called "shell website" has been operating in appropriate manner for two years and four months? (continued)
January 6: 3:32 pm - http://e.weibo.com/1421452137/zddkFwyPC
(continued) 4. The problem is, blank spaces had existed in our registration information for two years and four months (on the afternoon of January 4 the Beijing Communications Administration ICP registration department said our ICP registration was cancelled back on August 30, 2010), why is it only on the afternoon of the last day of 2012 that we suddenly receive notices of "ICP number rescission" and "Web site cancellation," and at nine in the morning on the first day back to work on January 3 the website was suddenly shut down? We have yet to get an answer on this timing question.
January 18: 6:53 pm - http://e.weibo.com/1421452137/zf3MjzJ0T
The web site of the Annals of the Yellow Emperor has resumed operations. This afternoon we received a "Notice Regarding Approval of ICP Registration Application Examination and Verification" from the MIIT Web Site Registration System via email saying: "Your ICP registration application has passed examination and verification, your registration/license number will be (omitted), date of registration verification approval: 2013-01-18 15:28:39." Following a simple adjustment, the web site of the Annals of the Yellow Emperor official resumed operation at six in the afternoon. We deeply appreciate everyone concern and attention for the "Annals of the Yellow Emperor" magazine.
炎黄春秋网被突然注销。今天（1月4日)9时左右网站被关闭。去年12月31日分别收到署名为“工业和信息化部网站备案系统”的短信和邮件：“您备案信息中的网站炎黄春秋网已被注销，该网站的备案号京ICP备08100492号-1已被收回。特此通知！”通知中没有注明网站被突然注销的原因。详情本刊正在了解中。
本刊网站今天上班后将按北京通讯管理局提示，与接入商联系办理相关备案手续。希望能够尽快恢复被收回的炎黄春秋网的备案号，网站早日运营。深切感谢广大网友对炎黄春秋的热情关注。
今天下午已在接入商处办理完相关备案手续并提交审核。上午北京通管局一位朱姓女士在与我们通话中表示：“你们的备案申请提交上来后，在10个工作日左右就可以完成备案审核。”期待炎黄春秋网早日恢复运营。本刊今年第1期重点文章将在微博上陆续刊出，欢迎广大网友阅读。
感谢广大网友的关注。对网友提出的问题在此一并回复：①炎黄春秋网自开通后仅收到过工信部网站备案系统两次邮件通知，网站开通前收到“备案申请审核通过通知”，网站被关闭时收到“炎黄春秋网已被注销，备案号已被收回”通知。此间，没有收到相关部门任何通知，包括需要“重新备案”的通知。（待续）
（续前）②炎黄春秋网的备案号一直正常使用（直到2012年12月31日被通知收回），网站一直正常运营（直到2012年12月31日被通知注销）。③一家备案信息被取消自己却不知情的所谓“空壳网站”一直正常运营了两年零四个月，谁应当负告知和监管责任。（待续）
（续前）④问题在于，备案信息处于空白姿态已经长达两年零四个月时间（1月4日下午北京通管局备案部说，2010年8月30日你们的备案号已被取消接入），为什么突然在2012年的最后一天下午我们才收到“备案号被收回”“网站被注销”的通知，2013年上班第一天9时网站被突然关闭？这个时间问题我们无法回答。
炎黄春秋网恢复运行。今天下午收到工信部网站备案系统发来“关于ICP备案申请审核通过的通知”邮件：“您的ICP备案申请已通过审核，备案/许可证编号为（略），审核通过日期：2013-01-18 15:28:39”。经过简单调整，炎黄春秋网下午6时正式恢复运行。深切感谢广大读者对《炎黄春秋》杂志的关注和厚爱。
