Discussion
It basically started here. The FlickreviewR 2 was not editing fast enough beacuse the API is sometimes too slow and backlog size was about 17 K. The bot fills the archive parameter of the review template. // Eatcha (talk) 03:04, 16 March 2020 (UTC)
- I have one instance running on Google cloud (Global IP block exempt for EatchaBot) , this decreases the chances of the bot getting throttled by any thing. // Eatcha (talk) 03:09, 16 March 2020 (UTC)
- The bot tries to find the oldest archive, if found add that else force new archive and add add it. //Eatcha (talk) 03:13, 16 March 2020 (UTC)
- Proposal to run a bot to archive every external link using the Internet Archive on Wikimedia Commons // Eatcha (talk) 03:20, 16 March 2020 (UTC)
- Some archives may not be available in the real time, it's basically because of a lag on internet archive's side. But the snapshot is taken in the real time. If you can find any archive link that's not resolving after 7 days , use my talk page. -- Eatcha (talk) 05:41, 28 March 2020 (UTC)
Please ensure your bot is running properly, currently it changes the review templates but not the source link in the information template. It should be the opposite way, never touch review templates. --Denniss (talk) 08:51, 2 April 2020 (UTC)
- Denniss Archive is a parameter of {{FlickreviewR}}, see edit by Jarekt originally requested by Coffeeandcrumbs. The information doesn't have parameter for archives (AFAIK). FlickreviewR 2 adds the archive parameter (see edit, just an empty parameter) without really archiving (limitation of tool-forge, IMO). I don't run FlickreviewR, the operator left commons because of some problems. --Eatcha (talk) 10:07, 2 April 2020 (UTC)
