Eastview Translator Broken
I'm trying to save sources from Eastview to Zotero but it says that there are translator issues? Has anyone else experienced this?

Here's the link, but I'm not sure how to change it so anyone can see it. It's a copy of the Moscow Daily News archives. Not sure if those archives are supported.
However, I don't have access to this resource. @adamsmith Can you test this?
Maybe, the proxy is a problem here, because currently we use a permaLink which uses a fixed base url: https://github.com/zotero/translators/blob/master/Eastview.js#L81

That said, Eastview is a moving target that's very hard to work with. The site doesn't display information with much structure, changes the structure periodically and between databases. The resources I'm able to test (which are Pravda Digital Archive , Russian National Bibliography , and Standalone Serials) all seem to work.
