What key information should be included in a scope and content statement for a web archive collection? It would be great of folks could point to 1) good examples of discription of scope and content and 2) any relevant standards.

Not sure this is quite what you are after, but we did some work documenting the scope and content of one of our collections here: http://data.webarchive.org.uk/opendata/ukwa.ds.2/#issues and here: http://data.webarchive.org.uk/opendata/ukwa.ds.2/host-linkage/#issues
