Description

IABot is inserting duplicate archives in cases where the archive URL is mentioned in a source before the actual URL. This is because the archive URL is always assumed to be after the original. Cyberbot needs to be able to handle these cases too.

Example https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Parliamentary_elections_in_Singapore&type=revision&diff=730744868&oldid=721900690

This is a rather complicated bug to fix. The bot's been built around the fact that the archive usually comes after the initial URL.

Waiting to be tested.

Tested this patch on the given article, and it seems to work.
