Archive part of the page?

@Trizek (WMF) -- the page of updates is getting quite long, because it goes all the way back to 2018. Could you please help be creating an archive for the page, and maybe archive all of 2018 and 2019? I'm not good at creating archives and I'm afraid to break things.

Done.

Since the wiki don't have a proper system to handle archiving and deal with broken links on every page from the wikiverse, some people may see some broken anchors if they check on 2019 and 2018 messages they would have received on their pages. I think it would not affect a lot of users, and I think they would be experienced enough to explore the archives. I fixed the links on our newsletters archived here (but not the distributed ones, which is impossible).

To avoid this effect on further updates, I created a 2020 page for 2020 updates. This page would be archived in 2021 when the new year (and new updates) start. This allows to create more reliable permalinks.
