"Your link was deleted" error when opening a shared link

I received a link from a South African newspaper with several of its articles that I require for my PhD studies. I received it just before embarking on a road trip to interview people. Upon my return today, I wanted to re-open the link in my Dropbox account and got the message "Your link was deleted.".  Is there anybody who can assist me in finding the deleted link?

    Hey CanYouHelpMePlease, I'm glad you'll be able to retrieve the files for your studies!

     

    To make sure you don't lose them again, you'll need to download them from the link, either to your computer or to your Dropbox, if you have enough space.

     

    You'll see the download options, when you open the link.

     

    I hope this helps!

    You would need to contact the person that gave you the link. They've either removed the link, or deleted the file(s) that it pointed to.
