I don't think --mirror is what we want this context, since that will
initiate a recursive download of the entire site. (Ironically, my IP is
now banned from a personal blog that provides a how-to for using wget
after I tried to run the above command on it.) From the wget manual:
-m
--mirror
Turn on options suitable for mirroring. This option turns on recursion
and
time-stamping, sets infinite recursion depth and keeps FTP directory
listings.
It is currently equivalent to -r -N -l inf --no-remove-listing.
AFAICT, org-board uses the following options, which limit the archiving
to a single page and all its resources:
wget -e robots=off --page-requisites --adjust-extension --convert-links [...]

You can also create a warc (web archive) file with wget, but then you
need a web archive replayer to view it, which is not exactly convenient.
Best,
