Though https://packages.debian.org/bookworm/widemargin shows

and

https://web.archive.org/web/20200621144121/https://bitbucket.org/trampster/widemargin/wiki/Home

may have an archive of the code, though I did not check yet.

This is a won't fix issue, as in

a) trisquel don't host git repository for every package. they are pulled from upstream, the changes applied are using this programs called helpers.
b) trisquel doesn't rebuild all packages, rebuilding all packages to remove the upstream git url info is not worth the effort, this is similar to the "universe" tag on upstream packages: https://gitlab.trisquel.org/trisquel/package-helpers/-/issues/51

Please note you can help a lot by digging deep into the issue at hand, reporting things to satisfy someone's curiosity only adds work and speculations on fixed ideas, most of the time searching a bit deeper key points get unveiled.
I only mention this because I have invited you to check the package-helpers repo and check how it works.

If for whatever reason you didn't get the instructions email to validate the gitlab account, contact me through the contact user contact form, and send me the email you used to register on the instance or on the IRC channel, so I can help you get it activated.

Best regards.

Thank you for the information about rebuilding being needed to change the upstream git url info.
I thought only a small amount of text may have been needed to be changed.

I likely should have looked more into the way checked more into how the apt-get worked, than I may have seen it was not as easy as changing a small amount of text.

I do not think I got the instructions email to validate the gitlab account, but it is the same email I used to sign up to this forum.

Thank you Ark74 for helping me activate this gitlab account, if you were the one who did it.

I can now report bugs.
